Great app!
Perfect app for tracking food intake and connecting with my coach.
Can’t Save Anything
I am trying to save a post and the “Save” button overlaps the very top right of the screen on the status bar. I can see the button but am unable to click it so I can’t save anything.
Useless
It wouldn’t let me create an account, so I deleted it!
Doesn’t always work
I like the idea of this app, as I was looking for an easy way to track what I eat. Taking photos has proven the best option for me. I’ve tried other apps that log calories but I get too hung up on accuracy and lose focus on the big picture. The app is super buggy and doesn't always work. Seems to be getting worse with the iOS upgrades and makes me think this app isn’t actively being developed anymore.

Can’t log meals, then can’t log in
UPDATE: Because of the swift response of the developers, it’s possible to log in. There are still some problems but their team have been on top of fixing the problem. I also appreciate them promptly responding to support messages. Good to see they aren’t neglecting the app!
ORIGINAL:
Today the app became absolutely unusable.
-First, couldn’t log meals. Got instead an error message
-Then, after reinstalling the app, couldn’t log in via Facebook or with email&password
-Then couldn't reset password because Meallogger can’t process the actual sending of the instruction email after I’ve typed in my email and pressed reset. So I’m not receiving reset email (yes I’ve checked the spam folder)
There have been glitches, which were ignored by the developers since the last update, but now the app is completely useless. The only reason I kept using this app is I have 2 years’ worth of logs; and with no way to export data, I wanted to stick with the app for the information I unfortunately already entrusted with it.
Please fix the app!

Daily, weekly, monthly summary of food groups? Half portions?
Easy to use. I am not terribly interested in photographing every bite of food, but I am interested in logging the food groups I have eaten. It would be really useful if this app provided a daily summary of how many servings of all the food groups I've eaten, and even weekly and monthly averages and trends.
Also, if it allowed half servings of all the food groups instead of just some of them (even allowing manual entry of # of servings in addition to +/- entry).

Love it!
I love this app! Started using it 1.5 months ago and I dragged a couple of friends for accountability :-) I lost 12 pounds. Sure, I worked hard BUT if someone is going to see everything I eat... Well they did it for me! I wanted to eat better ;-) plus, I hate counting calories! I eat everything, watch my portions, take pictures, and I am held accountable. Thank you MealLogger, didn't know I've been waiting for something like this - but looks like I did! Brilliant idea!

Really great app, but could use a bit of work
Edit: The UI issues are real issues, it turns out. The concept is great, but there are errors and stuff that make this harder to use than it should be.
Original: I used to use calorie counting apps frequently, getting decent results, but I sometimes found that too cumbersome/tedious, particularly when eating out. And sometimes the focus on calories in/calories out/nutrient counting meant having days where I ate less than wholesome food (processed) that looked deceptively ok when plugged into an app (within calorie budget, added vitamins in ingredients, etc.). I switched to counting servings of food types, but was left wondering about energy balance. So being able to estimate calories consumed from servings of food types is magical!
The UI is less than intuitive, though. It took a minute to figure out where to find the calorie estimates, and tracking exercise isn't nearly as easy as tracking food.
I wish I could export calorie estimate data to HealthKit and possibly import exercise data. I also wish for further customization of nutrition plans (for different sized bodies and needs like pregnancy or breastfeeding).
But this is a mostly a great app. Thanks!
