However, for everything it lacks that myfitnesspal has it’s not worth the switch. For one, I really miss the ability to see my macronutrients like iron, sugar, and calcium intake, I am anemic and have diabetes in my family so this very important to me. Second, myfitnesspal has more scanable items and when something is missing myfitnesspal allows you to add it with a barcode and full macronutrients, but Avatar does not. Third, on the main page it doesn’t tell you how many calories a single item is. ### 3/5 — Pretty good, but missing a few options. *2025-11-03, version 2.23.3* Overall, I like this app. I’ve used it off and on over the last few years. It does a good job of giving you weekly adjustments after check-in. I just wish it would allow for a few additional diet options like low-carb and keto. I have always done better with a low-carb diet for losing weight. The app allows for other diet restrictions such as vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free. I’m not sure why it doesn’t provide lower carb options. Tracking net carbs would also be helpful, so I have to use a different app whenever I want to go on a low-carb diet. The other noticeable omission is that it does not appear to sync with Apple health, so I have to key in my weight every day for the weekly average. For an iPhone app, I would think that linking to Apple health would be a given in 2025. Food tracking is easy and I like that I can copy meals and entire days to a new day. This makes tracking simple. The weekly adjustments are useful and work well. You can change goals, pause tracking for vacations, and there are lots of other features. Overall, a solid nutrition app. I just wish they would allow more common diet options. ### 2/5 — BUGS!!! *2025-10-18, version 2.23.3* Too many bugs. Fix it. 4th time deleting to reinstall. What’s wrong ?? ### 3/5 — Too many dumb features now *2025-08-12, version 2.22.3* Used to be a great simple app. Now I can’t even set my desired custom macros. Get back to basics guys. ### 5/5 — Great! *2025-03-23, version 2.21.5* This program helped me reach my goals in just a few months! The guidance was easy to follow, making the process smooth and effective. ### 5/5 — Trust the process *2025-03-21, version 2.21.5* Trust the process and you’ll see the results! ### 5/5 — Brilliant app *2025-03-03, version 2.21.5* Excellent app for tracking macros and helping you with your goal. Only small feedback is to include more UK barcodes in the database ### 5/5 — It’s worth it *2025-02-28, version 2.21.5* Have used avatar on and off since 2016. When you adhere to it, it works. Have lost 20+ lbs every time using it! ### 5/5 — Life changing *2025-02-11, version 2.21.5* I’ve never felt more in control of my nutrition and diet… and not in an unhealthy controlling way. There is soooo much freedom with this app. Download it now!!! ### 2/5 — i love this app but *2025-01-12, version 2.21.3* i’ve used this app for 757 days and i’ve gotten a way better understanding of food. my only gripe is that when i’m looking at past data, it does not show me the actual average macros/calories consumed (like the ones you get for your check ins). so for the past 2 years i can see my weight correlated with the calorie GOAL but the goal doesn’t mean anything to me. i want to see what my actual calories/macros were for each check in so i can cross reference how my weight loss was tied to my actual calories consumed. i’m considering switching to another app to lose the last 10 pounds and maintenance which is a shame since i love everything else about this app. ### 5/5 — Best nutrition app *2025-01-11, version 2.21.3* Avatar has been there through thick and thin, surgeries, pregnancies, etc. They work and communicate with you whenever you need and they continue to evolve to help you reach your goals. ### 5/5 — Best Macro Tracker Out There! *2025-01-05, version 2.21.3* I’ve been using Avatar Nutrition on and off for the last 8 years. The app keeps getting better and better and it makes macro counting so easy!! ### 3/5 — Impossible to cancel *2023-06-29, version 2.20.1* This app is impossible to cancel. I have followed the instruction. No cancel. I have tried to do the chat help. No one reply’s. I just want to cancel this. Help ### 5/5 — Most superior nutrition macro calculator in the market!! *2023-05-19, version 2.20.0* This app is amazing, convenient, and does more than your typical tracking diet app. Not only does it have easy ways to add your foods (personal recipes Included), but it also has a live coaching chat box for any questions. This app also calculates your macros based on what your personal goal and will adjust if needed whenever you do you 7 week check ins. For the price, this app goes above and beyond and is far superior than any other current macro/calorie tracking apps. This has been the only app that I’ve been consistent with and genuinely enjoy using. I had a bad relationship with food and absolutely hated tracking my calories- let alone my macros. My mentality and relationship to the food I eat daily has been transformed for the better good and it’s highly linked to the greatness of this app. To the avatar team, thank you all so much! ### 5/5 — Best app on the market!! *2023-04-28, version 2.19.4* No better app out on the market to help meet goals!!! It’s extremely user friendly and worth way more than it cost!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — FUBAR *2026-05-07, version 2.25.4* Tap on breakfast and food is posted in lunch, post food in lunch shows up in dinner. Open ap and it starts at recognize in photo. A total mess since last update. ### 1/5 — BUGS!!! *2025-04-03, version 2.21.6* Too many bugs. Fix it. 2nd time deleting to reinstall. You get one more shot. Then pffft. ### 1/5 — Charged after canceling *2025-02-25, version 2.21.5* I canceled two days into my free trial and I got charged for a month. No contact in their app support for billing issues. Not a great business practice. ### 1/5 — No free trial *2024-03-31, version 2.20.9* Was charged for a month but cancelled same day as download. Avoid ### 1/5 — Will renew your subscription and screw you over *2023-06-24, version 2.20.1* Be careful if you use this app. They will auto charge you after you request to end your account. Then they won’t refund your money and you will be left with a charge. I suspect it’s part of the business plan because in their FAQs they say they don’t refund yearly payments. I use to really enjoy the product but after this I would never suggest this app to anyone. ### 1/5 — App continues to crash *2023-03-15, version 2.19.2* I’ve tried to complete signup 3 times, and each time I get to the carbs or fats section it kicks me out of the app. Not sure what could be wrong, so I deleted the app and reinstalled it just to have it happen again. No bueno ### 1/5 — Deceptive practices *2023-03-04, version 2.19.2* The app said there’s a trial period. I installed the app to see if there was smart watch integration. I realized within minutes they charged my account for a months service. The free trial is a myth. ### 1/5 — Keeps Crashing *2023-02-23, version 2.19.0* App keeps crashing. Really disappointed. ### 1/5 — Needs Update *2022-10-15, version 2.18.4* This app has potential to be great, however it needs an option to manually input & change my macros. It resets to the default macros weekly & having to email or chat with the coach every week to change them is tedious & very inconvenient. I deleted the app for that reason, which is shame because it could be great. ### 1/5 — Not a "free" trial and charged $9.99 even though I canceled before the "free trial week" *2021-07-11, version 2.8.2* Decided to cancel because I realize that I can't come up with macros for eating out so often. I do IF and OMAD so when I eat, a lot of times I order in and it just doesn't seem to be a good time for me. I was sure it was listed as $7.99/mo but a couple days in I realize it's not a good fit for me right now.. then see my next payment is due next month and I was already charged $9.99! What's the point of a "trial" if you are charged the day you sign up?? What a waste. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best macro app *2026-03-26, version 2.25.1* I’ve tried all the different macro tracking apps avatar by far has been the most consistent and best one out there. The carb fat slider is amazing the ability to have high and low days or even enter your calories manually are all reasons I love this app. Been a long time user. ### 5/5 — Amazing help and results *2026-03-25, version 2.25.1* Avatar Nutrition has really helped me create good habits by counting my macros and calories! It’s easy to use and very user-friendly! ### 5/5 — Easy *2026-01-25, version 2.24.7* The only way I can lose weight. Can scan barcodes search general foods and live a near normal life while losing weight. ### 5/5 — Puts all other nutrition apps to shame *2025-11-07, version 2.23.3* I wish I would have found this app sooner! I’m down 25 pounds in less than 90-days and I feel like I’m still living my life. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — My Weight Loss *2025-11-01, version 2.23.3* A year and a half ago my son told me about Avatar Nutrition, to prove to him it won’t work I agreed to start the App. WOW now I weigh 220 and I’ve lost 230 pounds and just ran my first half marathon. Thanks to my son and Avatar Nutrition my life is 100% better, Healthier, and I now can play with my grandchildren. Thanks again to Avatar, coaches,and staff ### 5/5 — Terrific app *2025-10-16, version 2.23.3* This has been crucial in helping me change eating patterns from starving myself to healthy eating. I’ve lost the weight accumulated over several years due to surgeries AND IT WAS EASY! I’m over 60 and I’m healthier than I’ve been in a long time, including a reduction in cholesterol numbers. I highly recommend! ### 5/5 — The best *2025-07-12, version 2.22.2* I’ve used a couple of apps.
