Doesn’t work anymore

Worked okay at first, now it can’t even give you grams or ounces for physical food items. How do you expect me to log FOOD with ml? Obviously ai-supportive (the ai doesn’t work anyway). Just kinda pointless, so many bugs and isn’t great at giving you the food items your searching for, even if you say the exact brand name and WHAT it is. Find a different app!

great app except for the search engine

this app is my favorite calorie tracking app yet, I really like the customization options available (though it would be nice if more accent colors could be added 👀) and it’s pretty simple to use and MOSTLY works perfectly fine. the only issue I have with the app is its search engine because sometimes food from certain brands won’t be shown in the search engine one day and could be found the next day or you search up something and you get results only slightly related to what you searched for. the app is still great, it would be nice if this issue could be resolved in the next update though.

loveee

such a cute tracker! i’ve tried it for a bit, it’s so easy to use and makes tracking fun! also connects to health and ur apple watch, so it’s even easier knowing how much u can eat. so much cuter than the other trackers aswell x

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your review! Glad you are enjoying it and we will continue to add more health connections and features :)

Bar code

It’s a very good app and very good looks but I do wish you didn’t have to pay to scam barcode since the search bar dose not have all the items and I cant track a lot of my snacks.

sooo cute!!! i have an update idea! :)

It would be SO cute if like we could have our own diaries in the app🥹 where we could track our weight, measurements, etc! and if we could add our own photos to the diary for aesthetic reasons :)!

hope the devs see this!

amazing but i wish there was one more thing

i use this app all the time i just wish it had an option thats easier to track measurments! building muscle means the scale may go up while physically the body is looking different, i used to add notes to each weight but theres no way to see the full note so i can only see half the measurements! 🥲

Been trying to get help, no response👎

I sent an email about a week ago asking to cancel my subscription as I no longer use it enough. I did not hear back. There isn’t even a section in the app to ask help! This is so frustrating

I cannot find the subscription on my Apple setting and have sent the email twice.

Response from developer

Hello, thank you for reaching out, we just searched for this email and are unable to locate it, you can cancel your subscription from your settings app on your phone by going to Settings -> Apple account -> subscriptions. I hope this helps! Many thanks

good app but big problems

I love the app and the personalisation options, but finding foods i've previously logged is weirdly difficult. there's no logical or clear way to access past entries, so I often have to end up inputting it from scratch on another day which makes logins mundane and long.

the search function is disappointing. compared to my fitness pal, searching for foods often returns completely unrelated results, and even foods i've logged before don't always appear.

as a premium subscriber, I would have expected more. but I will no longer be using this app - I have to cancel my subscription

Not very good compared to other apps

Its personalizable simple interface is what’s most appealing about it, other than that it’s less advanced than other apps and locks some features under subscription when other apps like my net diary offer the same features for free. It also doesn’t allow you to put your age as under 16. Overall solid app, but its drawbacks turned me to other apps. Its interface is very well done and easy to use but in terms of function it’s very basic.

The scan

Why is the scan not free?

Amazing

This is such a great app for tracking my calories! I find it to be more easier to use and less complicating than other tracking apps (i.e. MyFitnessPal). I love how they also have the grams setting, which is very helpful when tracking with the food scale I have

Response from developer

Thank you for your review! It made our day! :)

cute !!

i love the baby pink feature and the app is so easy to navigate !! it be cool if all the colours came in a soft baby colour

Great Tracking App - Missing Cholesterol

I really like this app! I paid for premium in hopes of unlocking more nutrition and better features, however I realized there is not an option for cholesterol which is the main reason I’m tracking food, I would really love to see that added!!

Response from developer

Thank you for your suggestion! We will make sure the team is aware this is a wanted feature so we can improve the app for you :)

The best!

Literally the best app for tracking. It’s fun & easy. This app has definitely made it easy to be consistent and achieve my current weight goals.

AMAZING BRO

I am so ECSTATIC I discovered this nutrition tracker app. It doesn’t require an 80 dollar subscription to track a basic diet. MYFITNESSPAL SUCKS. I am so grateful I get fantastic benefits for free. Your search is over!! Download this app you won’t regret it! Bonus: the theme is so cute!!

Good Tracking App

I think this app is really good for being able to track your calories and to customize its look, although there are a few things I would change to make this app 5 stars. For example adding a way to tell the app you’re finished logging for the day to not lose your streak if you’re fasting, a way to see what you’ve logged for the day on your Home Screen as to edit or remove items, and a graph to log you’re weight loss and see your trends. I use this app instead of LoseIt because of the customization feature, but that app has all of these things I’ve mentioned and makes it a better app overall and I have potential of switching back.

Hey, thank you so much for your valuable feedback and kind words, we will use your feedback to improve ChowTracker. Thank you!

simple app, gets the job done :)

I really love the small community in this app!! everyone on the forum page is super nice <3
I love the “simple logging” option where you can just log calories and macros if you are unsure of the meal’s contents😸

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your feedback, super glad it’s helpful for you! ☺️

Very useful

Great app, no adds and premium is worth for the barcode scanner.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your kind review! So glad you find it useful.

SO GOOD

really really good for logging calories. there are so many food options already in there!! also its so cute you can make the tracking circle into a heart

THE NEW UPDATE

the new update makes it even more difficult to find foods in the search. before, when i couldn’t find what i was looking for there would usually be other options similar to mine, but now when i search something with a brand name, what used to have many variations now has none. i’m better off making an estimate mentally than using this app. i was looking forward to an update on the search database since it needed some improvements, but now it has become almost entirely useless instead. i hope you guys can find a solution to this as i do prefer this app over many other trackers.
