We had a roast dinner , my husband had a bigger portion yet his calorie count was lower than mine , on the whole I don’t think this app is particularly accurate. ### 4/5 — Helpful *2026-09-02, version 1.2.74* The app has really helped me watch things related to my food choices and eating habits. ### 5/5 — Calo counter *2026-09-01, version 1.2.74* I am tracking for the first time and I have lost 7 lbs. thank you ### 5/5 — Calo *2026-09-01, version 1.2.74* Great app easier to use than any other I have tried ### 5/5 — One of a Kind *2026-08-31, version 1.2.74* The easiest and fastest calorie counter! So worth it! ### 5/5 — You need this app *2026-08-31, version 1.2.74* Keeps you on track 100% ### 5/5 — Great Ap *2026-08-31, version 1.2.74* Easy use. Can scan your means, enter manually or search a large data of food. Keeps you aware of your diet. Love this ap ### 4/5 — Typical Daily User *2026-08-31, version 1.2.74* Program doesn’t seem to keep relative similar and consistent entries from prior entries readily collated for easier search. Program does NOT recognize in search data base typical routine national products data base or continues to offer locations restaurants and chain info not available in our area and not chosen for prior meals. Fitness Pal has way better database, but doesn’t have the cool easy scan feature which is great. ### 5/5 — Teddy *2026-08-31, version 1.2.74* This is a great app for someone who is trying to be in a calorie defict and lose weight. I highly recommend it ### 5/5 — K *2026-08-31, version 1.2.74* Such a great way to recognize what goes in. 😄 ### 5/5 — Live this app *2026-08-31, version 1.2.74* 5 stars !! ### 5/5 — AI oh MY , this is a great way to help me understand how I am doing everyday! *2026-08-31* I have used many apps over the years for weight loss but Calo has been the best Tracker I have ever used.

I need the protein and calorie amount in the foods I choose and make sure I drink plenty of water this app helps me with these. ### 5/5 — S.Erulgen *2026-08-30, version 1.2.74* Probably the best calorie tracker in 2026.

It’s easy to use, keeps me on track with my calories and nutrition, and has really helped me stay consistent with my fitness goals. ❤️💪 ### 5/5 — Food counter *2026-08-30, version 1.2.74* It’s always nice to have your food calories counted for you. This is an excellent tool to use. ### 5/5 — My calorie counter *2026-08-30, version 1.2.74* The calorie counter is perfect. It’s just that I’m still in the overheated mode learning how to control that. ### 5/5 — Accurate *2026-08-30, version 1.2.74* Surprisingly Accurate ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Loss of Trial Period Scam *2026-08-27, version 1.2.74* Buyers beware. I was checking out Calo and it offered a 7 day trial. I decided not to even do the trial, and then it offered the subscription at 1/2 the price. I gave it a try thinking I still had a 7 day trial period, but that was apparently taken off the table with the discount. I was immediately charged. I was not impressed by the app but was unable to cancel and Apple denied a refund request. ### 1/5 — Wanted money back as promised *2026-08-26, version 1.2.74* Doesn’t work. Didn’t loose a pound ### 1/5 — Engana *2026-08-26* Até o “Teste gratuito” tem que pagar… **Developer response:** Olá, agradecemos seu feedback e entendemos suas preocupações com o custo do aplicativo.

I want a refund . ### 1/5 — There’s no free trial scam *2026-08-19, version 1.2.74* I signed up for the free trial for seven days and got charged $ 20, so I canceled and never got my money back scam. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-08-18, version 1.2.74* App said there was a 7 day free trial but they charged me a full year from day one. When I cancelled the subscription within 24hrs I was told my subscription would end in a year’s time. My credit card has been charged. No mention of a refund for the year I haven’t used. ### 1/5 — Terrible Ap. Don’t waste your money *2026-08-17, version 1.2.73* Much of the stored information is very wrong. Plus they charged me for a whole year when I only wanted to try it month by month. I didn’t even approve a full year. I feel robbed and cheated. I wrote them. No reply. I will never ever get anything through Apple Ap again. ### 1/5 — AI Scanning food lasted 1 day *2026-08-09, version 1.2.73* App only allowed me to use AI scanning for 24 hours. After that it wanted me to buy a subscription. No thanks. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work well *2026-08-07, version 1.2.73* So far everything I’ve taken a picture of has been wrong from ingredients to calories. The app told me a St Germain Spritzer was almost 500 calories. (It’s 115). It also couldn’t tell shrimp from chicken. It doesn’t work well at restaurants so you’re still stuck guessing the calories and nutrition facts. Update: It’s been over a month and it’s about as much work trying to get the scans to be correct vs just adding it yourself. Still not very impressed. 60 day update: don’t pay for this app. I took 3 separate pictures of the same cookie and got 3 different calorie counts. SMH Update 255 days in. Still works poorly. It doesn’t learn from previous entries. Terrible app. Update 331 days in. Still don’t like the app, still doesn’t give accurate info, is glitchy with its daily tracking so the app definitely has bugs to work out. 34 more days and I’ll be rid of the subscription. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Review *2026-09-02, version 1.2.74* Awesome app ### 5/5 — Easy and helpful *2026-09-02, version 1.2.75* Amazing scans and super user friendly…I’m down 4 1/2 pounds in a week!
