Great app, intrusive ads, unusable bug
I’ve been using this app for years. A recent update has caused it to force me to watch ad after ad. Like 3 ads in a row, then 15 seconds later, another 3 ads in a row.
Also a bug ha caused the text in the quantity field to be WHITE. I can’t see it.
😕 This is kinda unusable!

Great until iOS 14 update
Use this app all the time for help carb counting for daughter with type 1 diabetes. Worked amazingly well until iOS 14 update. Now can’t see numbers I type in for amount, although nutrition information does change. I’m constantly double checking though, which makes the app a little pointless until this is fixed, please. I even tried deleting and reinstalling. No change.

With latest iOS 14 update not working properly
Ever since I updated my iPhone 8 with the latest iOS 14 update, the Calorie King app has a problem. I can’t see the numbers I type in the space for quantity. Even if I can’t see the numbers typed in, they are there, because nutrition changes as different numbers are typed in. PLEASE FIX! I would have give 4 stars if it weren’t for this and that you don’t offer 1/2 cup or full cup from the drop-down menu.

CalorieKing
I love this app as I am a type 2 diabetic & use the app for not only calories but mainly for watching my carb intake which was highly based on a class I took & the carb counter helps me base the # of units of insulin I need to take.
I went out to open the CalorieKing App to ck on a Particular Restaurant where I bought lunch plus to add the carbs so I could see how much insulin to take based on my lunch.
My app would not open at all, it would show the Face Page but would not open in any of the categories, I tried to reinstall the app but that didn’t work either, I’ve used this app for a very long time so please let me know how to fix it, I’m 75 so make it easy for me PLEASE.
I want my app CalorieKing back.

No way to stop auto renew of subscription
I bought the 1 year subscription to be able to see nutrition info without being hindered by ads. Now, I want to unsubscribe and the only options are to renew for one month or renew for one year. Standard practice followed from iOS 13 doesn’t present Cancel option for this app.
Issue with incorrect info
So I have a concern. I was checking KFC’s calorie count for their coleslaw. The family size (14.6 oz) has 53 grams of sugar but the individual size (4.0 oz) has zero sugar? Ummm something is wrong with the math. The smaller and larger portions should both reflect the correct nutritional facts based on portion size. I did my math. A 4 oz portion of KFC coleslaw has 15.1 grams of sugar. If I someone didn’t do the research, they think they were doing better they are if they were watching their sugar intake. Additionally, it’s not just that item. There are several other things that are list in this same manner. Please fix the incorrect information. You could really mess up a persons health. Especially those with dietary restrictions.

Updates
You need to have someone to update the restaurants menu. Such as jersey mikes. You had subs in a bowl under sandwiches be salads... can’t find anything because there is so much and most stuff is in odd places need more
Break downs... plus not all
Sandwiches are listed some are there more than once. Same way with. Chick a fil. Don’t know which 4 or 6 piece chicken is correct since it
Gives different info..

App B, Ads/Price F
App is great for T1D, with one exception; after typing a number for portion size, you can’t get the keyboard to close. The ads are way too long, and sometimes not child friendly. The price tag for a year seems excessive given how simple the app is to create/maintain. Also cannot use one subscription for whole family, my wife and I have to buy separately; not great for parents with a type 1 diabetic child.

Incorrect information
I like the overall design of this app but many of the items listed in the food database have incorrect information about the serving size and calories per serving. I have had to enter the information myself. As well as scanning the barcode doesn’t bring up many of the items I eat but when I search for them on the search app they come up. This needs to be updated with more current information.

Great database but with ads?
I use this regularly for my Diabetes. It lacks info on quite a few items I’ve searched for but very pleased with app. I just used it for first time in couple weeks and after looking up info on a food and before I could search for another it went to an ad! Ugh. When did this become standard? I would look for another app even if I have to pay for it. Will be doing a search to do just that.
