## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Big mistake

*2020-01-06, version 1.1.6*

Stupid App.  It worth 2 cents. Big waste of money.

### 1/5 — useless

*2019-02-07, version 1.1.6*

not worth it!

### 1/5 — I want my money back!

*2018-04-07, version 1.1.6*

The app looks like it would be helpful but once you purchase you quickly see that it’s not intuitive. There’s a lot that can be done to this app including calculations based on height weight activity etc. I’ve seen better apps than this for free. I want my money back, not useful at all!

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2016-06-17, version 1.1.4*

I cannot believe I just paid money for this app. A chart on the wall has as much functionality. Would like my money back.  No one needs to track portions without calories.  Get real.

### 2/5 — Portion units of measure are all off...

*2018-05-08, version 1.1.6*

1 portion of protein equals 1 ounce in this app. That means I’d have to track 36 portions of protein every day to account for 6 meals with 6 ounces of protein in each. Same with carbs. Fruit portions are measured in cups for some reason, it would be much easier to track 1 piece of fruit (apple, orange, banana, etc.) as one portion. It also gives a one size fits all table of how many portions someone should eat, regardless of activity level. Great concept, poor execution.

### 3/5 — Not happy

*2017-01-04, version 1.1.6*

The app resets itself if you clear your phone carousel cache. Really annoying. Otherwise it would be fine.

### 4/5 — Diet app is very helpful

*2018-12-12, version 1.1.6*

The app is great for tracking the different food pyramid portions eaten. 
It would be nice if you could press one button and it could tell you a summary of how much food you have left to eat for the day in the different categories.
Also combination foods are a challenge to track. I find that I have to use two apps for those foods. I use the other app to look up the nutrition information and then I figure out how many carbs fats and protein those nutrition pieces fit into. For example:

-   One carbohydrate exchange, equals 15 grams of carbohydrate.
-   One meat exchange equals 7 grams of protein.
-   One fat exchange equals 9 grams of fat

This info could be added to the search function for looking up information on foods.

Thank you for making my health easier to manage

### 5/5 — Best Portion Tracker

*2020-08-28, version 1.1.6*

People giving low reviews for this app obviously did not check to see what it’s for and what it does before trying it.  This app is exactly what I was looking for and works perfectly.  You should already have a meal plan and if it’s based on portions of food groups, all the better.  I’m using the Diabetic exchange plan.  Those lists tell me how much of a food is a portion, and how many portions Incan have in a day.  This app is a quick and easy way to check off what I’ve eaten and see what I have left for the day.  I no longer have to do the tedious data entry and go over and o er it to see where I stand for the day.  I also love that there’s a motivational icon along with the food groups where I can enter my own mantras and reminders to make sure I read them every day.
Remember Richard Simmons’ Deal a Meal?  Yeah, like that, but easier, and free.

### 5/5 — Simple

*2016-10-03, version 1.1.6*

This is exactly what I have been looking for! If I could have I would have created this one myself. Quick to use as soon as you set up goals. I don't need calorie count. Similar to the old Weight Watchers, My Plate or Diabetic Diet. I think Richard Simmons had something similar with cards. This is so much simpler. If I could have I would have created this one myself.
I wish there was a way for my iPad and iPhone to sync. Also wish I could add a some more custom weekly or daily goals. If you could do that it would be even better. I would like to be able to have separate goals for starchy vegetables and high vitamin C fruit. I would like a goal on how many times a week for beans and perhaps red meat.
