Used to be better
Recent changes have really bogged down the performance of this app. Now you can choose to also track water consumption, but that also slows down the app quite a bit and makes graphs too small to be useful. But at least you can turn that option off.
Most recent change added a bar chart of past daily total caffeine, which again is nice but now you have to wait a long time for the graphics to update before the app is even responsive! And there is no way to turn off the additional chart. And it too makes the daily caffeine level graph too small to be useful.
Please add the ability to turn off the bar chart, and make the graphics space taller so graphs can actually be read. (It’s fine if you have to scroll slightly to see everything).
For an ad-free app it’s still pretty good.

The best caffeine app!
I’ve used this for years to slowly stop my coffee habit without the crushing headaches. It’s so easy to use and has all the measures I need. I just reduce my sleep ready level slightly every few days and monitor the timing of my daytime coffee. Works a treat
Excellent
This app really helps me make sure I can fall asleep easily at bedtime. I like the ability to customize the target amount of caffeine per day, at bedtime, and adjust bedtime. I find it to be an accurate predictor of how long it will take me to fall asleep.
There is one minor bug in the latest version: when logging a new amount the “sleep ready” time shows the current time. It used to correctly show the time I’d be ready for sleep if I took that amount of caffeine, which was helpful in deciding what to consume.
And there are some quirks, like when you add a new custom amount you can’t rename it until after adding it. And newly added custom amounts appear at the very bottom of the list instead of the top. But for an ad-free app it’s great!

Useless App
Maybe there is something I missed with this app, but bought it a couple days ago and, unless there are directions I am aware of, this app was a complete waste of money. I wish I could return it for a refund!
Great app! Couple minor suggestions
Love this app! Would definitely recommend it if you are at all interested in your daily caffeine consumption/looking at improving your sleep!
For the developer, I have a couple suggestions.
1.) I do shift work, so my bed time is in the morning. Up until midnight, the app will say I’ve consumed too much caffeine because it cannot process the time differential for the next day.
2.) The history on the app could be better to show now much total caffeine you have consumed each day.
The app is great overall still. Very helpful to see real time estimated caffeine levels!

Does the job, mostly
This app does a pretty good job tracking caffeine intake in its many forms. I like the graph showing how it slowly dissipates from your system. Americans should note that many of its preloaded caffeine types are products and stores found in Germany since the developer is presumably German. It’s nice that you can add your own categories and forms of caffeine. I added dark chocolate to my list of groups.
The app could be improved by allowing users to set physical characteristics that determine caffeine affects each user according to body weight, or other factors.

Apple Health Integratiom
This is a great app. The UX/UI is beautiful and intuitive. Syncs with Health for easy long term tracking.
Helpful
After years of consuming coffee by the ton, I decided to cut back. This app has been a great way to measure my progress.
Not reading from health
I use another app to add caffeine entries to health, and this app does not use that data despite the relevant setting is enabled and all requested health permissions are granted. Hope this is fixed eventually.
Needs extra features
I like it but it would be better if you could add drinks in ounces. Also would be nice to be able to look at use over time to see patterns instead of just one day really.
Close to perfect
This is a great app but it’s lacking in the shortcut department. While it has shortcut support, it just brings you into the app to select the item. I would much rather have shortcuts that allows you to actually select a specific beverage for automated logging.
Love it! But..
Fabulous concept. Lovely fast app. Easy to use.
Would love more granular adjustment of units of measurement (fractions of a shot). Range of caffeinated beverages could be larger (like my fitness pal).

Pretty good, wish it had shortcuts integration
The real value of this app is having preset drinks with their respective caffeine levels and giving you an estimated sleep time based on how much you have consumed. The app has integration with HealthKit for syncing metrics but I really wish it was more “automatible”. Would be perfect if you had Siri shortcut actions for logging a saved drink and getting the sleep time.

The UI is terrible
Difficult to choose amounts other than presets... and need to type in every entry. Even though “only $4...it’s a waste.. too bad.. the reviews I read were so positive 😢
Pretty good
Would be nice to see widgets added for ios14. Also on the Apple Watch, It would be great to be able to choose which complication displays.. on some faces it shows a running total of caffeine consumed.. but on most it displays the last time I consumed caffeine. I’d love to be able to pick which one to display.

Very Useful!
Very useful app for determining your actual intake of caffeine with potential for taking in too much! Like WAY too much!! I was finally honest with myself in large part due to this app!! Sleep improvement has been genuine!
All presets missing in current version!
The groups tab is now empty, and I don’t feel like re entering all that data 😫
Need other features
Would really appreciate if the app allows you to track your mood and energy level throughout the day too so we can know how caffein actually affects us individually. Right now the app doesn’t give as much insight as I would hope on our coffee habit
Great app.
Does exactly what I need it to do and nothing more.
So far So Good
I was looking for an easy way to better track my caffeine just to be more mindful of my consumption & have it sync to the Health app. This does just that & I love it so far. I love how I can add my own drinks I commonly use as well as being able to quick add using force touch. The “ready to sleep” might be iffy for me. I know it more than likely uses the overall half-life of caffeine, but I wish it would also factor in weight with the metabolism. Other than that, I am loving how easy it is to use & trackZ
