Could have been a great app

I love the mechanics of this app. It is easy to use, the Daily Report nicely summarized your day, it’s one of the few app that tracks more than just your standard calorie & a handful of nutrients.

Sadly, the food database is much smaller than MyFitnessPal, there are many errors for the food that is in the database, and there is no clear way to submit to or correct items in the database. I’ve been using the app for 3 days now and there are many big name products where there is no barcode in the database. Approximations are nice, but if I am going to pay for an app, it better be at the top of its game and not some wanna be.

My suggestion is to work on your food database it really is lacking by comparison to other similar apps.

The best

I use this to track my macro and micro nutrients. I’ll check my macros (protein, carbs, fat) to see how I’m doing then adjust the contents of my next meal if needed. Same goes for micro nutrients (calcium, potassium, etc.) I really like that the app makes it easy to see where your nutrients came from with just a tap. You can also tap to see how to get more of a particular nutrient. Potassium has been my biggest challenge. I eat a plant based diet so all of the other nutrients come easy.

Sketchy Math

HealthWatch360 can track all the important stuff but the food database is limited. Unable to manually add all nutrition facts based on some sketchy math. Customer service was very responsive but not willing to compromise. She actually blamed the issue on me.

Manual entry is problematic

The screen only shows part of required fields of entry. I can’t complete the manually entered foods because I can’t see the calorie count point of entry.

Response from developer

Thanks for using our HealthWatch 360 app. We continue add features and improvements while keeping the app free of charge and ad-free. Unfortunately, sometimes glitches happen (programming an app is pretty complex). We have fixed this error (white zone hiding Manual Entry form) and just need to go through the process of having Apple publish it in the App Store- it will just take a day or two. Thanks for your patience. We hope that you will rate the app higher once this is fixed, and you can always use the 'App Support' link to contact us directly (located right under your review in the App Store); Customer Care @ GB HealthWatch

Cannot add manual entry anymore

The new update has a glitch that keeps you from being able to see the top section of the manual entry form. Screen is blank white at the top but you can scroll down to see protein and everything below it.

Sweet nutrition at-a-glance

For several years now, HealthWatch 360 has been one of the most comprehensive food trackers in terms of nutrition (which is what REALLY matters for health). While other popular trackers continue to only highlight the basic macronutrients that one finds in food labels (protein, fat, carbs...), HealthWatch 360 gets detailed, with over 30 nutrients (includes nutrients like manganese, choline, omega-3, lutein, etc). With this new version 2.0, it now looks better than ever (upload your own avatar pic!), and includes 2 new features called HealthWatch Goals and Personalized Nutrition. Basically, you can now set the levels of nutrients that you need, for your life. If you choose a HealthWatch Goal (like 'bone health', for example), the app will set your nutrition levels to match this, and will also allow you to track things that are relevant to 'bone health' (sun exposure, joint pain, menopause, etc). Meanwhile on Personalized Nutrition panel you can see what the new nutrient levels are, and can even adjust them further (maybe based on recommendations by your dietitian or doctor). And now there are Meal Plans for your entire day’s nutrition all-at-once! Great improvements; this tool keeps us moving along "on the road to healthy".

New update a pain!!!

The new update said it fixed bugs...but now every time I log in it tells me there is an upgrade and I have to upgrade again. I think it made more bugs. Can you fix this please?

A glitch

When working well, I like it. however it sometimes doesn't retain data, requiring re-entry. You can tell by looking at the calorie calculation in the heading. It doesn't forget data that has been processed. The problem seems to occur randomly.

Great Health App

Training for the rigorous career to be shipped halfway across the world? I'm not! But this app definitely helped me lose weight the healthy way as well as help change my diet for bone pain . Thank you for inventing this APP
