  • 5 Stars

    At first I thought binge eating was purely about what I ate, but this app totally shifted my thinking. It's way more than just food—it's about figuring out my habits and what sets me off. The daily lessons have been eye-opening, helping me dig into my mental health and emotions. 👏👏👏👏 Thanks for making an app like this!

  • Knew it was too good to be true

    YOU GOTTA PAY FOR IT!!! I was so excited seeing it and I knew that they would probably have a premium version with more features like most fitness apps do but I didn’t know you would have to actually pay for it. Maybe a one time purchase fine but like 5.99$ and 110$ a year??? I understand that people who struggle like me would spend that to stop but I wish I could get healthier for free. health should be free. Yeah fine add features that can’t be accessed without a membership but at least give us the basics for living a better lifestyle. Money hungry.

  • Best binge-eating recovery app

    This app has been incredibly supportive to my recovery — it has allowed me to keep myself accountable and maintain motivation and momentum. I tried therapy (CBT) in the past, and found it far less helpful than the self-guided resources that R.Care provides. The subscription is definitely a bit pricey, but this far has been very worth it. Also, the developers are incredibly receptive to feedback. They have taken my suggestions into account on numerous occasions, and have even allowed me to preview mockups of new features.

  • Needs work

    Sounded promising but needs work. First, the food diary should either allow multiple snack entries or have a setting to change the number of snacks tracked per day. Second, my “daily spark of motivation” and “tip of the day” are both blank. So far, this is not even worth the $5.99 I paid for a 30-day trial, let alone the full price for a yearly subscription. Disappointing.

    Developer Response

    Thank you for providing this valuable feedback. Regarding the food diary functionality, we recognize the significance of accurately tracking your intake, and we are currently refining the feature to accommodate multiple snack and meal entries. Concerning the issue of images not displaying, could you kindly provide further details to hello@recoverycare.app? We deeply regret that your experience with our service has not met your expectations. Please know that we are dedicated to continually enhancing the app, and your opinion matters to us a lot.
  • Unnecessarily Paid.

    You can't get any help without a subscription?? As a teenager who often binges and struggles to stop, I am in desperate need of help before it causes long-term health problems. I don't want to have to explain to my parents that I'm uncontrollably eating every single day. I need help. Please at least add free features that would make this useful.

    Developer Response

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We understand your frustration and appreciate you reaching out for help. It's important to note that while our services may require a subscription, they offer a more affordable option compared to traditional therapy, not to mention in-house support programs that cost 10k+ per year. If there are specific features or resources you believe would be beneficial as free additions to our platform, please reach out to us at Hello@recoverycare.app. We are committed to exploring ways to further support individuals like yourself who are in need. Thank you.
  • You can’t get any help without a paid subscription.

    I think this is what I hate most about apps like this. They make you take the quiz, ask all these questions, and you think you might actually get some help until they hit you with the subscription. There’s a reason lots of people with eating disorders don’t go to the doctors or nutritionists etc for help, because it costs so much money. People can’t afford to waste money on something they most likely won’t use. If this app had an unpaid version of the plan, I guarantee it would be a commonly used app. Horribly disappointed but not surprised.

    Thank you sincerely for sharing your thoughts with us. We understand the importance for our users to feel confident and informed about the services they choose, which is why we offer a free trial period. This allows you to fully experience the support and value our app aims to provide, without any immediate financial commitment. We're curious to hear if the option of a free trial seemed daunting, perhaps due to concerns about the ease of cancellation. Please rest assured, canceling your free subscription is straightforward and can be quickly managed through Apple's standard subscription management system. We recognize the financial hurdles that often stand in the way of individuals struggling with binge eating when seeking help. Our app strives to be an affordable alternative, making much-needed support widely accessible.

  • Grammatical errors

    Through the introductory process, I came across several grammatical errors and typos, which were extremely distracting. As an app that claims to be backed by Harvard Medical School and Boston Children’s Hospital, I would expect a bit more from the editing side of things.

  • Not just about calorie tracking...

    I love how this app doesn't just focus on the numbers but also encourages a holistic approach to managing binge eating. It has helped me become more mindful of my eating behaviors and has significantly reduced my urge to binge.

    This app has given me the strength to be honest with myself and others about my binge eating journey. It's a welcoming space where I feel understood and supported.

  • Like the emphasis on Science

    With its emphasis on scientific rigor, the app offers users a comprehensive understanding of binge eating through a data-driven approach. It is great to have access to research articles and data analysis. IT helps me make more informed decisions and tackles challenges with more confidence.
