Stopped using it for a bit but I wanted to start using it again and it logged me out. Fine. But no matter what I do, I can’t log back in. It says my particular email address already exists but when I try to log in with it, it doesn’t work. Ok. Then I try resetting the password via password forgot. User doesn’t exist. I try making fresh account. It won’t let me because my device is associated with the app already and forces me to use whatever account I already used (which is the one that it says doesn’t exist). It’s a nice app until you can’t use it. ### 1/5 — Crashes when you add food *2024-01-14* Tried to track what I ate and app crashes very time ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-12-24* I don’t know if this even right to review but. I downloaded this app because I want to lose weight and the moment I got in there’s this glitch I can’t even continue the small quiz. The ‘continue’ button doesn’t work. Ive redownloaded the app multiple times. My phone is also up to date on updates so this is really weird and kinda off putting for me. ### 1/5 — Stopped working & no help *2023-11-05* I really loved this app. It stopped allowing me to log in after 3 months of use and I have attempted to contact them 4 times with no response. ### 1/5 — App keeps on crashing *2023-10-22* When I try to log my food, the app crashes as soon as I select breakfast, within the tracking feature. ### 1/5 — Crash *2023-10-17* App doesn’t allowing tracking. Every time I go to insert my food the app crashes. ### 3/5 — booo *2023-03-22* seems super cool and useful but uh why cant I adjust the caloric intake? 1400 calories a day is literally nothing. 411 calories per meal is nothing just to compare 10 mcnuggets is 490 calories you do the math i’m rly disappointed because I don’t need a crazy diet but I cant adjust it to be wack with my calories also cant seem to connect my steps with it either, considering i’m a college student I walk 5,000 steps a day **Developer response:** Hello, Day-J does the best we can to estimate your ideal calorie intake but as you pointed out we don't always have all your information (like steps per day if your device isn't connected). We have just added the ability based on your feedback to set a custom daily calorie goal. It is available under ME / Goals & Targets. You can also adjust your default activity level in the settings if you are a more active person and it will prompt your virtual coach to recommend higher daily calories. Thank you for the feedback! ### 1/5 — Not Ready-Still Glitchy *2022-11-13, version 1.209* I had a fasting app that advertised this app so I went to check it out. It’s in beta. First off the sign up process is off putting. Most apps let you sign up through FB or Google for an easy frictionless experience. Next, the sign up questions are small and barely legible because of size and color against the background. Then it forces you to give your number to continue. I don’t generally like giving apps my number. Heck I haven’t even seen your app yet!!! Too invasive. So I decide to play along and the next step is to enter the passcode they sent my to my email. Guess what? It never came. I even tried the resend. Way too much effort on my part. Hope you make it out of beta, but I’m not your customer. This isn’t customer focused at all and it’s just the beginning. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! We just removed the phone number requirement and streamlined the email verification process so that it will not block future users. We are working on cleaning up the process more and we are sorry you had issues. ### 1/5 — Sorriest app *2022-10-26, version 1.209* I can even create an account with this app because it hangs up. So your free things aren’t worth it if the app doesn’t work! UGH! **Developer response:** We are sorry that you had issues, we have fixed this problem and we thank you very much for reporting it to us. ### 5/5 — Excellent! *2022-10-07, version 1.208* This app is excellent! The food database is so large - I have yet to find anything not included! Editing the amount of food is super easy. ## Frequently asked questions about Day ### How does Day-J help me track my food?
