### 2/5 — Misleading

*2026-07-25, version 1.3.1*

I just feel like before having a person build a profile there should be SOME warning in the actual app that there is a full paywall. It is listed all the way at the bottom of the app description by an asterisk but I had to search. I understand it is a marketing method to entice you to keep the app, but it really was a waste to create for me personally.

### 3/5 — Must pay to use without info on $

*2026-06-15, version 1.3.1*

I love the games where there is motivation to buy your pet something or decorate. Like the apps Finch or Bitepal. However these games have a free version and premium add on features. I chose to use these apps because I got to check them out without premium features and see if this app works for me.

 When I got this app I immediately had to do a free trail and I could not see how much the actually cost was. Bitepal does the first year premium $2.99 a month while this app charges that a week. It seems like there is also a $5.99 per month option too.

### 4/5 — Guidance with features

*2026-05-24, version 1.3.1*

I am loving the app, the capybara is adorable. I am having trouble figuring out how to progress to the Amazon fish season even though I have finished with the Atlantic. As well I have not been able to figure out the bing chilling and bonjoir achievements. I contact support and no one responds back.

### 4/5 — Very great app

*2026-05-03, version 1.3.0*

I am using this app with my young daughter for health reasons.This is the only app I’ve found that appropriately calculates an intake for a person her age. (Others calculate unsustainable/unhealthy levels because they are for adults) the only comments I have is that food logging is a little clunky if you are trying to log something a day later it tends to auto add it to the current day, I wish you could edit the date in the “edit entry” section. I also wish more of the food selections could be broken down into gram servings instead of just whole packaged servings

### 2/5 — Cute but that’s it

*2026-03-24, version 1.3.0*

The app itself is adorable. I love animals and the ability to decorate the Capybaras home and change outfits however the food database is not vast, it’s impossible to enter calories accurately for certain things. In general it doesn’t have the things that My Fitness Pal has. I have sent multiple messages to customer support regarding the possibility of a partial refund and get no response whatsoever.

### 4/5 — Adorable Calorie Counter

*2026-03-10, version 1.3.0*

I have already seen progress after a short amount of time using this app. It's so great and really convenient to use! My only wish is that it had better furniture /decor options. It feels like they haven't really given much care or thought to that part of the app, which to me was the selling point. I use the Finch app and it has furniture /clothes for every place you visit and depending on the month. There's a new theme every month and it's super cute! I wish this app had more features like that.

### 4/5 — Really fun helps with calorie counting

*2026-01-31, version 1.2.6*

I love this app it’s a fun way of calorie tracking my only gripe about the app is not being able to add food to previous days meaning I have to add it to the current day If I forget or it’s just after midnight and do mental gymnastics with how much I’ve eaten on the day

### 2/5 — Ok

*2026-01-13, version 1.2.6*

I know this app woud be good if it did not cost munny

### 1/5 — no free version to test it out

*2026-01-12, version 1.2.6*

.

### 1/5 — No free features

*2026-01-04, version 1.2.6*

Was hoping this had less in depth free features to try for a while with a view to pay for better features if it had great impact, but no. It's already locking you into a free trial and taking your details before even seeing anything the app has to offer unfortunately. Deleted it as fast as I downloaded. MyFitnessPal will have to do because it's basic feature are free.

### 1/5 — Pay to use ANY feature

*2025-12-14, version 1.2.6*

Typically apps have some free features, but not this one.

### 1/5 — Much potential, but no support when freezes

*2025-11-06, version 1.2.6*

I really want to love this app. However, it has now frozen on goals twice. No way to complete a goal. Not possible to even reset a goal or try another one. Only way to continue is to reinstall the app and lose all of your progress (including gems and purchases) or stay frozen. Reached out to support multiple times, but never heard back. App is adorable and has a lot of potential, but the constant freezing gets very frustrating.

### 3/5 — Almost a year in

*2025-11-03, version 1.2.6*

The app does some things great. I like the tracking. But one of my motivations is being able to purchase things for my Capy. It’s been well over a month and there is nothing in the shop to shop for! Please refill the shop!!!!! Also, when there is a story to read, parts of the story get cut off and I’m unable to scroll to read the full script. I’m on an iPhone. I’d also like to be able to see a progress chart that covers a longer time period.

### 1/5 — Forced to subscribe

*2025-10-14, version 1.2.6*

I just downloaded the app and when i was filling my information they asked me to review the app (how? i haven’t used it yet to have an opinion) then to actually use the app they made me subscribe. there was no “X” button and no way to not subscribe. this is a very bad dark pattern, if you expect all users to pay then make the app payed, do not make it “free” and then force them to pay after they already downloaded it. I accepted the 7 days free trial to check but the app was lacking, felt very incomplete and it was just very boring. i will not be using the app and do not recommend to other people.

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-08-07, version 1.3.1*

I put in all my information only to immediately get prompted to start a free trial for one week no option to skip it. I agree to it and then all of a sudden the app couldn’t find my information so immediately canceled and uninstalled it.

### 1/5 — No updates!

*2026-07-27, version 1.3.1*

I would happily change this review to five stars, but there have been no substantive updates and I’m worried it’s been abandoned.  That’s a shame because the idea for the app is great.

### 1/5 — Guidance with features

*2026-07-07, version 1.3.1*

No longer loving the app - no one from support will respond back to me regarding questions. I am over it and will go with another calorie tracker.

### 1/5 — Took my money

*2026-03-31, version 1.3.0*

Took my money without notifying me and I’ve contacted multiple times for a refund but they never responded. Do not recommend this app.

### 1/5 — Paid app, not free

*2026-03-29, version 1.3.0*

You can download this app for free, but to actually use it you need to pay for it. It asks you to put in your info (height weight any goals) but that’s as much interaction you get. Then you’re taken to page where you can try to app for $0 but of course that means agreeing to one of the subscription options.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2026-03-28, version 1.3.0*

I used this app in the past and it was free and now it’s a subscription that you don’t find out about til after you sign up.

### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE

*2026-03-09, version 1.3.0*

I purchased this app and realized it wasn’t doing what I thought it would. I contacted Support to see if I can get a refund as I only had it for less than a day. No response back no support whatsoever. So I tried to work with the app and use it and was still having issues with it. It wouldn’t save my foods or it would over calculate certain meals. contacted support again and still no response.

### 1/5 — Not cool

*2026-03-07, version 1.3.0*

Cute design. Liked the friendly feeling interface.
However, two big NOs from me. First is during the initial setup asking for a review. I haven't even gotten to the actual app!
Second, nowhere in the description did I see that a subscription is required to use the app at all. 
Deleted

### 1/5 — Can’t proceed without paying

*2026-03-04, version 1.3.0*

They don’t break the news to you that you have to pay to use the app until after you’ve named your capybara that broke my heart

### 1/5 — Wanted to love it

*2026-01-13, version 1.2.6*

App is so hard to use, not user friendly at all!

### 5/5 — Capy Diet!

*2026-08-17, version 1.3.1*

I love it !!

### 5/5 — The best weight loss app that I’ve used! Worth the money!

*2026-07-15, version 1.3.1*

This is the best weight loss app that I’ve used! It is worth the money. I’ve been looking for a weight loss app where I can track my weight, calories, and one that has a meal planner. With CapyDiet it can track your weight, exercise, calories, and plans your weekly meals for you. The meals are very easy to make, are low in calories, and very selective. You can even change them to your preference on there! It also gives you feedback on your daily meals,exercise, and how you can improve it. What makes it even better is that you have a little Capybara companion that you can dress up and play mini games with. I’m seeing a lot of progress and this app has really motivated me to lose weight.

### 5/5 — It is so fun

*2026-07-15, version 1.3.1*

I love it so much

### 5/5 — So much fun

*2026-05-02, version 1.3.0*

I lost 8 pounds in 16 weeks

### 5/5 — Super fun!

*2026-02-09, version 1.3.0*

This has so many helpful functions! I love how it graphs your progress and offers nutritional ideas for your next meal.  I also like how you can turn your progress into cute items for the capybara in the shop! Absolutely great app!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2026-01-06, version 1.2.6*

This app is super cute and helps with maintaining a healthy overall lifestyle. Absolutely recommend!

### 5/5 — Good app but...

*2025-10-05, version 1.2.6*

This app really helped me and its really cool to use but it’s just some times I get confused but overall best app to lose weight or gain some more weight

### 5/5 — Cute and useful app!

*2025-10-05, version 1.2.6*

Thank you to the developers! This app is very colorful and fun to use. Food, exercise and water is easy to log. The decor is very cute and it is motivating to do the activities and earn the gems and leaves.  

I wish there was a way to make notes on each day.  And I wish we could log and get gems and leaves for other things besides diet,  Activity and water. For example: logging hours of sleep, meditation or relaxation, taking medications, or a spot to add in our own goals that are important to us to track each day.

### 5/5 — Wish I could save meals

*2025-09-15, version 1.2.4*

I love this app, but I wish there was a way to save meals so I didn’t have to add every single ingredient everytime!

### 5/5 — Super cute and helpful

*2025-08-18, version 1.2.4*

I love this app because first off, it’s so cute! I hate the very boring fitness app that feel so serious and intimidating. This app actually makes weight loss and fitness and nutrition really fun! I like that you can earn points to “buy” and decorate your own little house. I do wish I could add more to my Capys home and there were a bit more cutesy, cozy things to purchase. I love that the app is extremely positive and suggestive and helpful! It makes me look forward to logging my progress. I’ve already lost ELEVEN POUNDS!!! 🎉🙌🥳
