Leave a Review Calorific
Love the idea
It does what it says. The idea is pretty neat and clever, and the UI is beautiful! It trains my eyes into a natural calorie-counting device with no effort, helping me make better choices when I decide what to eat.
It has potential. More foods can be added to the list; many of them are still missing; it can become a complete reference.
And you could include extra features to make it more engaging and interesting; for example a mini game that asks user to pick the item with lowest calories from the two given foods of the same size (almost similar to app’s “compare” section).
On the downside, finding food is frustrating; needs an added simple alphabetical word list. There’s sadly no email to contact developers directly. And the giant mismatching photo of spinach is slightly on my nerve! Is that a bug, or simply your favourite food? :)
Anyway, it needs an update. At the moment it looks like an orphan app with no future: too risky to pay to unlock.Show lessAllmonde
Correct?
Some things seem correct and others are not. For instance 1 large egg is 72 calories. This app show approximately 1.5 eggs as 200 calories. WRONG.abkos
Hmm

Negative Reviews Show Why App Needed
I was concerned about the low ratings on this app. Then I read the negative reviews. They were filled with people's misconceptions about how many calories common foods have. As someone who has been diligently tracking the calories in every possible food I can eat and finally successfully lost 40 lbs in the last 8 months, going from 28% body fat to 11% body fat, I can vouch that these pictures are accurate.
I think people are especially thrown by the amount of calories in bread products. "Really? A bagel has over 200 calories??" Yes, really. Moments of shock and calibration like this have been the building blocks of my success over the last 8 months and apps like this help spread that knowledge.Show lessCredford
Very slow
Paid for the app but very disappointed. The app takes forever to load the images and content!Lhuang1
Only shows 200 calories and needs money for all photos!

App with an educational purpose
Simple app that shows you what "calorie density" really is ! A smart way to engage people into making a healthier choice. I guess it can be as a client tool for dietitian or health professionals:)Rachelskh
How big is the plate
That would help a lotWeatherwatcherguy
Fantastic Idea
Its a great way to make comparisons between food calories and weightsIkerKaram
A bit pointless
Expected this app to maybe have increments of a 100 calories to show you how much each looks like, but no, it's just a slideshow of photos containing foods that equal 200 calories, and you have to PAY to see all the photos. Outrageousniaga
