### 3/5 — Can’t see daily food items

*2022-03-26*

LOVED this app for many years (since about 2010). I don’t think it’s active anymore because I haven’t seen an opportunity to update. Everything is working except when I click on the daily “food” icon (bottom left) it glitches out of the app and back to my home screen…which is annoying when you want to see your daily list of consumed food. That is the most important info I want to access, and I can’t. PLEASE UPDATE IF YOU STILL CAN! I noticed the website is gone now too… :(

### 2/5 — Use to be a great go to app but not now?

*2020-03-11, version 3.6.7*

I can not trust this app any longer it does not function since the apparent last update. I will enter meals only to have them totally disappear later? I can not add a food item to the Food Management list? I'm at a loss trying to make this app work for me.

### 4/5 — Can’t add new weight.

*2019-11-05*

Wont allow me to add new weight.

### 4/5 — Basic and great

*2018-11-04, version 3.6.3*

I was looking for something that would let me track the original weight watchers plan before points plus and had some difficulty finding an app that I like. This one fits the bill. It’s pretty basic and lacks the bar code scanner and recipe builder and it also doesn’t link to my Fitbit like some of the other apps.  However, it’s user friendly and I’m pretty happy with it so far.

### 3/5 — Nice app

*2018-02-02*

The only gripe I have is It won’t display in lbs, even though I have made it so in settings.

### 4/5 — Not a user friendly as other apps but it does the job!

*2014-03-09, version 3.3*

It feels a little clunky and not as intuitive as other apps, but the flexibility to do calories or PP from Weight Watchers was exactly what I was looking for! For the price you can't beat it. And customer support has been awesome! Worth it!

### 4/5 — Easy, Good. Could be great.

*2014-03-07, version 3.3*

Like it. Use it. Has lots of food with Weight Watcher points in database. Wish it had fruit/veggie counter. Took mea while to figure out how to put foods into my "favorites." But works well for me.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2014-03-06*

The only weight and nutrition tracking app I've used for over a year. The only thing I wish was that there was more options for food to enter. I usually improvise. But otherwise easy and clean app.

### 2/5 — Problems

*2014-03-06, version 3.3*

I am also having crash issues , starts to open then closes.

### 4/5 — Excellent application

*2014-02-17*

I was very pleased to find this application. It contains not only the list of food with their nutrients, but as well, the points plus from Weight Watchers. It is not a big list, but you can add to it. In addition, it includes a full list of exercises that you can select from and the ability to customize your lists and how you want to use them.  I use it everyday and really... It makes a difference as I have already lost 2.5  pounds in my first week.  The one thing I would like to see is the actual day it refers to at the top of the summary instead of the simple date. This would make it easier when referrring to the graphic, particularly for those days where the total is very similar.  Use this application, you will not be disappointed. I was usinf other apps before and this is the best one and simplest one so far! I love it! It would be nice if it was also compatible with the Andoid as my husband would also use it. Keep up the good work!

### 4/5 — Great!

*2014-01-18*

I have lost 7 pounds since I started using this app 2&1/2 weeks ago. I have done Weight Watchers in the past so I am familiar with the system, making this app very easy to use. Love the sounds that play when making entries.  Nice touch. Two drawbacks are not being able to browse the food catalog unless you are making an entry. Same goes for adding food to the catalog. You can only do it through making a new entry. One of the access icons on the bottom should be for the food list. The water icon could be combined with the charts.

### 5/5 — Great Support

*2013-12-31, version 3.3*

I have had this app for a few years. I used it religiously for a long time then life got crazy & I stopped using it. Ready to start again and my app wasn't working so I contacted developer & they were VERY helpful. Several emails later, I'm back on and logging. It's nice to be able to get such good personal (not canned) support!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2013-12-14, version 3.3*

Just downloaded and love this app! The database of food is huge and I love that I can easily add my own as well. Looking forward to getting to my goal weight with this!

### 5/5 — Track it

*2013-11-03, version 3.2*

I used to love this app but recently it doesn't work. Every time I try to open it it's initializing and then it closes. Very disappointed

### 2/5 — not so hot

*2013-10-15, version 3.2*

Not very user friendly

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Locks up on my iPad 10

*2024-10-16*

I can not log on to the app after downloading it to my new iPad 10. To bad been using this for years.

### 1/5 — Latest update super buggy

*2019-12-11*

With the latest update it constantly erases my whole days food log.   It erases the current day I’m on after I finish it.  It also erases the days in the future when I’m trying to plan ahead.   Getting very sick of having to keep adding the same things over and over just to have it erased.

### 1/5 — This app is garbage

*2015-09-04, version 3.5.4*

Complete rip off. None of the food I eat is even on the list. Every time I type something in it says "no results." I want a refund. Horrible don't spend money on this junk

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2014-08-12, version 3.4*

Don't waste your money....app has several bugs, frustrating to use. It could be great, but bugs need to be fixed.

### 1/5 — Track to lose it

*2013-10-21*

Terrible, I deleted it. Did not give me the information I wanted

### 1/5 — Used to be good!

*2013-09-04, version 3.1.1*

When I first or this app in June I lived it, but ever since the last update it doesn't run well!  Bad interferences and crashes all the time :(

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2013-09-03*

Terrible...don't waste your time or money.

### 1/5 — No good

*2013-08-25, version 3.1.1*

Do not waste your money, terrible interface and crashes like crazy

### 1/5 — The worst app ever

*2013-08-18*

This is not a user friendly app, I can't find the simplest items unless I eat out and it loses all of my entries after I have gone to the trouble to find them. I know it is only 99 cents, but this is not worth a penny. After two days of trying to work with the app, I got so aggravated that I asked for a refund. All this crap did was make me angry trying to find the food items that I cook, not order out and about 95% of the food items I can't find. And when I do find them and save it all disappears. Don't bother paying for this, your better off just throwing your money into the garbage can. I'm sorry but I ended up hating this app. Even when I clicked on the help, there was nothing useful there to help me have a better understanding on how to find any item I wanted. Save your and your sanity.

### 1/5 — Too buggy

*2013-08-17, version 3.1*

Crashed on start up, settings either don't work or sliders refer to wrong items, no alternatives for food measurements (e.g. Milk only in servings by cups, no option for tbs etc). Needs work to be useful. Just bought and deleted. Thankfully, only $.99. Lose It is far better, but not available on iPad.

### 5/5 — Perfect tracking app

*2020-01-25*

This app has everything you need to track diet/exercise/water/weight. You can use the database or totally create your own entries that are easy to find later.  Very reasonable price.

### 5/5 — LoveIt!

*2018-09-18*

This app had all that I need.

### 5/5 — Best point tracker

*2017-04-01*

Unlike other Apps, this one has a huge inventory of food items which eliminates the need to enter in the nutritional values for everything you eat like the other Apps.  I have lost 2 pounds so far in 5 days by tracking points and making smart choices, which this App helps me to do. My friend tried another App and it has zero food inventory so she stopped using it because it took so much time to enter values for each and everything she ate.  This App allows me to add foods if I need to but most of the time the item is in the inventory. Yay! Thumbs up!

### 5/5 — Great

*2016-01-25, version 3.5.4*

Love this app.  Been using it for several years.  Retains your weight loss progress.  Really nice to be able to just look at icon and know how many points you have left and not have to open the program.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2015-08-19, version 3.5.4*

I've been using this app for a few years now. Makes keeping track of my points, weight, and exercise a breeze! Thanks for developing it!!

### 5/5 — Clean and clear

*2014-09-20, version 3.5*

Outstanding app, which keeps getting better (such as integrating the camera scanner for UPC bar codes to get nutritional information). I've used it since December 2013 and find it easy to track exercise  and what I eat.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2014-09-19, version 3.5*

Great app for tracking eating habits and keeping you honest. Really great if you are a weight watchers user and need something to track points.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2014-09-18*

Easy to use and has had a great impact on my weight loss efforts. It does take time to initially get your food items recorded, but as time passes this takes less and less time. Helps keep you focused on what you are eating and making good choices. And let's face it, it is a lot cheaper than paying monthly membership fees if attending meetings isn't something you need.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2014-03-30, version 3.3*

I find this app easy to use and a great help to keep track of all my eating point.  I started using this app at 350 pounds and now I am down to 278 pounds.  I am very thankful for the help this app gives me.

### 5/5 — Oldhog1943

*2014-03-29, version 3.3*
