Great concept but unusable

I was really excited to find this app. I loved gamifying any task I can so this was right up my ally. The app itself is simply laid out and seems incredibly intuitive. That said, after downloading I was only able to log a single meal. When trying to add another I was forced into a prompt to try the premium service with no way to decline. This means you would have to buy a subscription in order to utilize this in any meaningful way, which is incredibly frustrating. Users shouldn’t need to have a trial subscription in order to see if they actually would enjoy the product.

Fun but not for everyone

I really like the gamification, picture log, and weight tracker but the rest of the app didn’t fit my needs. I am on keto, and while calorie tracking is important, I would have preferred the option to track carbs instead. You can add foods to the meal tracker, but it takes time for foods to be added and it is frustrating when most of what you eat has to be input manually (other apps I have used have a much larger food database). This app is promising but the features didn’t meet my needs enough to justify the $8.99 a month subscription.

Terrible App- Sneaky CEO

I had the CEO contact me via my Instagram weight loss page for a paid collaboration. They required me to download the app and send them some information. I did not hear back from them after that, even after I tried contacting them back numerous times. It seems this is a shady and probably illegal way of gaining downloads. Too bad I will be letting all my followers and friends know this app is garbage. Beyond the sneakiness there is literally nothing you can do in the app. It is a glorified digital paperweight.

Good idea, but broken

I was tempted to rate this a 2, but I like the idea and I think the app could greatly improve. However, customer service response wasn’t too promising... anyway, I like the design and gamification concept (they basically ripped off the Duolingo aesthetic, from the icons and graphics to the app UI, which I’m happy with). However, the app is basically broken and it’s currently not worth the cost. Compare the library of foods you can look up to that of the completely free MyFitnessPal app and you will see why that is a better option than Able. Manually having to enter in items is a chore, but furthermore the app won’t let you actually add custom items if they don’t have a bar code. To me, that’s literally a game-breaking flaw. An app like this should be free in its current state. I hope the developers add an easier way to log custom meals and food items. If this app had the massive food database that MyFitnessPal did, it would be the best weight loss app around.

Many great recipes for weight loss

I like the selection of recipes in this app. Most are simple and don't use too many ingredients. A big plus for me that they're specifically made for weight loss.

Motivating app

The app is a bit like a game. It is fun to collect gems, and I feel motivated to open the app every day. I have tried losing weight many times though. It is always hard, so don't know yet if I will make it this time. But I can only recommend this app if you want to give it a go.

Happy user 😊

Have only used Able for a short while, so I might not be the best to write a long review. But just wanted to say I have been happy with the app thus far. Love the simple concept and think it could work for me.

New workout habit

I’ve got into a habit of 3 short workouts a week. 10-15 min each time. It may not sound like a lot but just 2 months ago I did no physical activity at all. These workouts are good for someone like me 🙂

Better than I had hoped for 😍

Had heard about Able from a colleague of mine and thought I wanted to give it a try. Well, why not? I've tried other weight loss apps before (with limited success to be honest) - but Able is different. I liked it right from the start. The weight loss approach seems well thought out and I feel like it's the first app that understands the importance of motivation. I think results are coming soon 😄

Getting results 😌

I have lost 8 pounds already, don’t plan to slow down... Absolutely sure I will reach my goal this time!

Reached my goal!!

I have been using Able for 2-3 months and just reached my first 10 pounds lost. So proud! Surely gonna set a new goal now and keep it going 👏

Happy to get started

Happy to get started I just found this app and already like it. It seems like a more fun approach to weight loss. Hope it will work for me

Love the concept!

Coins are a tremendously fun and innovative way to count calories. Haven’t seen anything like this before. Works so well with the daily and weekly coin budget. So much easier to make the right food decisions 🥕🍏

Very positive experience so far 😊

I've been using this app for 3 weeks and I only got positive things to say. My goal is to lose 18 pounds before the end of 2019... I think this might be the app that make me succeed!

Love it!!

It works for me. Still some way to go but definitely think I will reach my goal weight (165 lbs) this time.

Delicious recipes!

I always get new ideas for what to cook for dinner. Giving it 5 stars.

Weight loss made simple

I’m not the type of person that is willing to spend a lot of time on counting every single calorie I eat. For me to reach a weight loss, it has to be simple and fit into my busy days. Otherwise it just won’t happen. The Able coins are much more simple than counting calories, and I’ve got to a point where I can remember how many coins my regular foods “cost” in coins. Meaning I won’t have to check the app all the time. I love this simplicity 👍

👍 Huge food database

I can’t remember searching for a food that was not available in database. All my foods are added in a few seconds - and I can go on with the day 😉 Also like the recipes and workouts!

Never been this motivated!

I’m on a 35 day streak right now, and I see progress every week. So happy to see the weight starting to fall off. Feel like I have been waiting years for this to happen 😃

Quick and easy to use

I find it so easy to track my foods and activities. Much more simple than in any other weight loss or calorie counter app I have tried. Simple tracking is the most important feature for me but I also like the selection of recipes. Good for inspiration.
