Wonderful app

This app changed a diabetic’s life for the better. Very accurate and helpful!

Limited use if you’re not from the US.

I’m from the UK. Most of the staples are there, but very little else. For example, the nearest I can get to a chocolate digestive biscuit is logging it as a graham cracker with 10g chocolate. I’ve no idea if that’s a realistic substitute but I suppose it’s better than nothing.

Expensive

Not knowing how effective this app would be I think it is upfront expensive. It is hard to ascertain the value without a few days experimentation with the features of the app.

Disappointed

Not super helpful. foods hard to find index very small and vague.

Ameliorations

Le moteur de recherche mériterait une mise à jour jour. Par ex si je tape petits pois, il me propose petits pois surgelés puis pois mange-tout, aubergines au petits pois puis pois cuit, blanchis... mais de quel pois sagit il ? Une image de l'aliment sur sa fiche aiderai aussi.
Enfin je ne trouve pas ou changer l'objectif de charge glycemique

Search Function

The recipe section is great except for the lack of a search function. I don’t have the time to scroll looking for a dish containing pumpkin, I.E. Pumpkin Soup.

Does not customize well

I’ve struggled to make entries. It’s not very intuitive. The search database seems fairly limited. I keep coming up with foods that aren’t in it and having to choose a close approximation.

Tried Promo

Ended up with a $59.00 charge.

What’s the point?

This app mostly contains GI and Gl values from the charts that are all over the internet.

It asks you to provide the GL/ GI data for anything not In its very limited database. I have no way of knowing what those are

Great

This a great way to learn the GI and the GL of foods. It helps me maintain my weight.

Wasted Money

App is limited to very basic entries. Most foods you will have to manually enter all macros and hope it is relatively close to a correct outcome. In my honest opinion do not waste your money on this app.

Hard to use

I am having trouble using it. I would like to add recipes but it doesn’t save them.

Disappointed

It doesn’t have the name brands I have searched. ie- Pure Protein Chewy Chocolate Chip.
What it listed for nutritional information was completely wrong. I tried to send feedback but it wouldn’t go through. Try again! Still didn’t work.
I see no place to contact directly!
I would like my money back !

Application

L’utilisation n’est pas claire d’utilisation

Dr. Farid Balaa

The website has food list GI information, have not been able to find it in the purchased version. All my cooking is Mediterranean, would try a few suggestions, most recipes do not match taste. Are way off base with my food palette. Need the lists of foods as displayed on website https://glycemic-index.net. Farid Balaa Ph.D / Food Scientist.

Don’t subscribe

At sign up, questions are tricky and you think you are saying no, then realize you signed up for stuff you don’t want. Then canceling is not honored. I am still trying to stop monthly bill. I don’t use the app because it is not any good, but afraid to delete until the charge stops.

Basisfunktion

Basisfunktion kann nicht genutzt werden, weil sofort die Zahlungsaufforderung zur Plus-Funktion kommt, die nicht übersprungen werden kann.

Response from developer

Danke für dein Feedback, Eugen. In der App bieten wir direkt zu Beginn die Möglichkeit, auf Plus zu upgraden, um dein Erlebnis zu erweitern. Diese Option ist jedoch vollständig optional – du kannst sie überspringen und die App kostenlos mit ihren grundlegenden Funktionen weiter nutzen. Wenn dir das nicht klar genug angezeigt wurde, schätzen wir dein Feedback sehr und werden daran arbeiten, es verständlicher zu machen.

Not so good

Am finding it hard to find what i need - i don’t find it intuitive at all

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback, Duffergirl. We’re sorry to hear that the app didn’t feel intuitive to you. We’re continuously working on improving navigation and making it easier to find the information you need. If you have specific examples of what was difficult to find or confusing, we’d really appreciate you sharing them — that kind of feedback helps us improve the experience for everyone.

Not Free

Program is not free. List of foods is very incomplete. Suggestions in many recipes use not so healthy choices like grape oil. I would not advise paying for this app!

Werbung Website falsch

Ich bin über die Werbung auf der Webseite des Anbieters zu dieser App gekommen. Auf der Webseite wird suggeriert, dass man damit das Essen scannen kann und automatisch eine Bewertung erhält. Leider ist dafür eine zweite App erforderlich, die noch mal weitere Kosten verursacht. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn man diese irreführende Werbung ändert.

Response from developer

Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Wir haben zwei separate Apps: diese App „Glycemic Index & Load Tracker“ und zusätzlich „Stedi“. Beide sind eigenständige Produkte, und Sie können frei entscheiden, welche Sie nutzen möchten. Diese App funktioniert eher mit manueller Eingabe und Nachschlagen von Lebensmitteln. Die automatische Scan-Funktion ist Bestandteil von Stedi, das als eigenständige App angeboten wird. Auf unseren Webseiten und in den App-Beschreibungen wird klar zwischen beiden Apps unterschieden. Es gibt keine irreführenden Hinweise, aber wir empfehlen, die jeweiligen Funktionsbeschreibungen genau zu lesen, um die passende App auszuwählen. Wir nehmen Ihr Feedback dennoch ernst und prüfen, ob wir die Kommunikation noch klarer gestalten können.
