### 5/5 — Wonderful Food Tracker

*2026-07-27, version 5.4.5*

This is the app I’ve been looking for for years. While I don’t mind calorie tracking, I needed something where I could track what I was eating on or around days where my stomach was acting up. Other food trackers don’t have that ability. Being able to track my food, my cycle, my stomach issues, all in one place is a life saver.

### 3/5 — WAS the Best Tracking App

*2026-07-05, version 5.4.5*

I LOVED this app up until recently. Started to glitch & get error messages so I reached out to customer support. Sadly not a great help. They sent me a PDF of my tracking since I’ve been using them since 2023. But the data was all jumbled up & coded onto different pages so not very useful at all. They also advised that this app is going away soon with no updates available any longer. So the errors will continue until it’s gone. No support is planned for this app - don’t waste your time and effort to log - all my data is now lost unfortunately.

### 1/5 — Unable to download pdf

*2026-06-22, version 5.4.5*

Can’t download a PDF

### 2/5 — Okay but missing some key features

*2026-06-06, version 5.4.5*

Having to enter your daily medication every single day is annoying. Why isn’t there a recurring option? And your FAQ page says “not found” when you try to click on it in the app. Generally just seems buggy, with several pages not loading or not existing.

### 3/5 — Keeps crashing

*2026-05-20, version 5.4.5*

I’ve been using this app for many years and it has increasingly grown slower. More recently it crashes every time I try to add anything making it virtually unusable. It’s very unfortunate because I depend on this to manage my symptoms.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-05-12, version 5.4.5*

Has a lot of ways to track different items

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-05-08, version 5.4.5*

I’d definitely recommend

### 5/5 — App

*2026-02-26, version 5.4.5*

This is a very great app to use! I love it! I can take it to my doctor and talk to them about what I’m eating and my symptoms, etc! Great app!! I recommend this app for people with disabilities!! It’s very easy to understand and do!!

### 3/5 — Better than most but has a major flaw/bug

*2026-02-26, version 5.4.5*

Love all the features and the look of the app however the date is always one day behind. I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling it, checking my device, and pretty anything else I could find on the internet to do but nothing has fixed it.

### 4/5 — Generally great and helpful

*2026-02-24, version 5.4.5*

This app has been great for me while I've been dealing with chronic illness. However, I noticed in the last few days that there were glitches in the home screen with showing best/worst day meals. I checked for any app updates I may have missed, and it appears this app has NEVER been updated. Not only that, but trying to contact support leads to a website that isn't in English, so I'm not sure where else to go. This is the only place I've been tracking my info lately, so if support for this app is going to be discontinued, I'd really like to know a way to export and hopefully reuse my data.
