Exactly what I’ve been looking for!!!
TL;DR Grateful to have found an app where you can just set and count food groups.
I have a meal plan in place provided by a dietician I’m working with, I just needed a way to track daily food groups, NOTHING ELSE.
I have a history with an eating disorder, so my plan is focused on just getting proper amounts of nutrition each day rather than obsessing over counting calories, macros, carbs, etc.
You would not believe how hard it is to find a simple app where you can JUST set and track your food groups and not have to count a thousand other things, or have the app decide for you what you should be consuming. This is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for, and I’m very grateful to have found it!!!! I also love that you can edit the names of the groups to suit your needs. Can’t say enough positive things about this!!!

Would have been a 5 but ...
I would have given this app a 5 except for two reasons. Tracking half portions is not possible (except) if you want to have your desired portions screwed and add a single half portion to the food group) and the app requires you to leave it open and running at all times or it deletes all of you data and portion settings. No good.

Awesome and Simple
I've been tracking my food using Lifesum, which has been great for learning about what foods are healthy/unhealthy, but I knew I wouldn't use it forever because it takes a lot of effort to track everything you eat. Now that I know more about healthy eating I'm glad I've found a simpler way to track my food choices.

Good
I love the simplicity and graphics of this app. I wish it allowed you to enter serving size (ex. Ounces or cups) and check off half servings.
Waste of money
Waste of $, why should you have to put in your portions every day when it’s the same each day. This is suppose to save me time. Seems like an easy fix!
Technically works...
It technically does what it's supposed to but if I pay money for something I expect it to be a little better than this. I should only have to set my portions once, not every day. It doesn't sync with other programs. It doesn't really give you good hints or a guide of what a proper serving looks like. Pretty disappointed with this app. Wouldn't recommend spending the money on it. If it where free it wouldn't be a biggie.

Logging ahead
I would like to be able to work at least one day ahead. Also I would like to add my own categories as needed. Generally a decent app for keeping up with daily items.
Giving a high 5
Been using a couple days and think I may have finally found what I want. Simple easy to track my exchanges. One thing I would like though is to be able to sync from iPad to phone.
Should be free
Yes, it does what it says it does, but in the laziest way possible. It would be great if you could change names of categories, and have the option to record if you go over the ideal number of servings. it would be helpful to be able to check off servings by meal and also see the daily totals, and how many servings are left of each item. Also, I'd like an edit feature to enter servings for the day after midnight. Honestly, a rally system like this is so simple it would be a great addition to any other nutrition app. Imagine if it automatically estimated calories, and allowed you to take notes or record specific meals. I was looking for a tally system because my nutritionist gave me a paper version of one. Unfortunately this one is SO simple it is not functional. I think the designers would benefit from talking to nutritionists and their clients when designing this. It's only 99cents, but at this point I'm better off tracking my nutrition with pen and paper.

Useful and simple
I like this a lot-simple and straightforward. I would like the ability to rename or add categories for it to work more seamlessly with a vegetarian diet.
I like it!
This app is exactly what I was looking for: a visual list of what I have consumed over the course of the day so I know if I've followed my diet well or am not getting enough of a food group. I do wish I could add in a category but other than that it works for me.
Just okay
I like the simplicity of this app but it is so slow to load and sometimes it gets hung up while you are trying to check off your food items. I'm am always frustrated by this. Please fix this. It just takes to long. It should be free
Handy App
This app does exactly what it says it will. It provides a check-off. It can easily be used for Diabetic exchanges or the OLD Weight Watchers programs (Freedom Plan and earlier). This is the only app I found that will do this.
Two things that would make it a five star app:
1. The ability to log food or journal short notes. (For me, this would help to make sure I didn't forget anything.)
2. The ability to go back and add changes to previous days.
Thank you for this fine app!

Better than nothing
I wanted something like the old Richard Simmon's Deal a Meal cards to use. My ideal app would allow me to Choose my calorie needs for the day, figure protein, carb & fats, divide them into servings (by default and by my own choosing) of food groups, and have an easy to see screen divided into groups. I want to include how to figure number of grams for each of protein, carbs, fats as calculated by percentages, so I can vary my intake, say, of protein from 30% to 25% or whatever, same with carbs & fats.
