Needs work
Also it would be nice to be able to see what I eat in a day listed. It seems like Im supposed to but it wont always show up. When it does show up it wont allow me to edit the list into different meals if I made a mistake
Response from developer
Hi, thanks for the review. What you see in a day is listed on the tab to the left of "home". It will show there in a line by line list the foods you've had that day. If you wish to edit the foods you can swipe from left to right to delete. If you need help on how to do this pop us an email on support@parrotpal.com
Much Promise

Thank you for the review! We're glad you're enjoying the app and see the benefit of it. The reason we focus on calories, protein & steps is because the research is clear that once these 3 are hit and are controlled, any changes to fats or carbs ratio/intake makes no difference to weight loss results. So if more of the world could simply hit these 3 key factors over time, we think that is transformational. But we understand users want to see carbs and fats, so that is in the roadmap to add to your weekly check-ins and to turn "on" to track if desired. We do however think, most people don't need to worry about carbs/fat intake if their calories & protein are in order. We appreciate the feedback and support of the app and can't wait to see your results over the next 12 months!
Wanted to love it

Hi Jay, you can go back to previous days and add entries for sure. Could you get in touch with us via email to see what's going on with your app? Email support@parrpotpal.com. We don't autopopulate for 250 calories, the app will find the nutritional information from verified sources to track it.
Buggy and unfinished
- The big selling point that you can chat your entires is pretty neat...when it works. Very often you simply get a "I'm ParrotPal, your fat loss specialist." reply and fails to enter your meal/calories.
- Want to create a meal or a recipe to calculate your calories? Not so fast...the barcode scanner scans but fails to retrieve the item so you are forced to manually enter/search your items. After you've entered all the details if you decide you want to go back to modify the mean/recipe...well you can't. After you have saved your entry it forgets the details and only shows you the total calorie combined for all items not a n itemized list of ingrediants.
- On a daily basis it forgets I have a subscription and asks me to pick a subscription plan which I proceed to choose the same plan and then says you are already subscribed.
The above is just some of the bugs encountered, for the price you'd think this app would be further ahead in development and quite frankly feels like a beta app not a production app. I really like the chat function to enter the meals but not there yet...basically paying a monthly fee to beta test an app.
? Really?
Seems kind of dumb

hi there thanks for leaving a review. If you tap anywhere on the screen, the keyboard should drop. But we will look into this and have a button on the keyboard to close it also. We will aim to have this updated within the next few days. Pop us an email on support@parrotpal.com so we can offer you an extended trial for the inconvenience
Total win! Easy to use and losing weight!
Not only is it easy to use but the customised plan works. Macros made easy! I love it and that I am seeing results. Total win!
A game changer for food tracking
No more endless tapping and searching to log a meal. Even when I go out for dinner, I can quickly note what I had, and I'm done. It's like magic!
Plus, it keeps me on track with my protein and steps too. Love how it syncs with my Healthkit. I've been steadily losing weight, and I don't feel like I'm doing a ton of work.
Definitely worth the download!
Great calorie tracker
