Not secure, no safety certificate

I thought I would try this one given it was recommended by the NHS. Did a week, and it seemed pretty good, then tried to load it and it kicked me out and said the app and website were not secure and I cannot proceed. Not helpful in the slightest. I would give a zero if I could.

Not recommended

I was recommended to use the free version by my GP. I have experienced various issues including the app logging me out randomly, not recognising the account, not being able to login using the NHS account, food not recognised from photos, and ridiculous portion suggestions. It would help if the money you get from the NHS to recommend this app goes towards fixing these issues.

Response from developer

Thank you for your review. We’re sorry a warning has prevented you from continuing after your first week. We take this seriously and would like to investigate the message you received. Please call our customer services team on 0330 133 0307 so we can look into this with you and help restore access.

Ai produced advice

Some coaches have no qualifications and others provide ai produced advice. NHS are paying for this? Doesn’t support keto diets and forced to go to unsuitable classes. The recipes are imported again via AI as they use US terminology and don’t have easily obtainable ingredients in a lot of them, many recipes are insanely expensive to make and the shopping list is ridiculous for low income households. There is no filter option in recipes at all. The sleep music is so generated and dreadful. So far it’s not been a good experience- it’s a glorified data collection tool, and dangerous having unqualified coaches.

Poor Option for Weight Loss

Was referred by my GP to Gro Health to use it for weight loss. The app is extremely counter intuitive, does not accurately track data from Apple HealthKit, and there are no male coaches available at all on the app. In fact there are a grand total of 4 available. The scanner doesn’t work accurately meaning you’re better off doing it yourself as there is zero support in place for anybody using this app.

I’m so disappointed as it promised a lot but delivered on pretty much nothing.

I’ll see through my 12 weeks as best I can, but so far I have made zero progress using this app.

Glitches in app

I got a free version of this app through my GP, and I thought I would give it a go as the description made me believe my health tracking would be easy. However app issues have meant the opposite. Part of the reason I hate tracking calories is typing in every single ingredient, so I got really excited by the adding by voice description or photo. Neither function work. In addition, it is meant to track my activity and sleep from Fitbit so I don’t have to enter these again. However, despite it saying I’m connected and synced with Fitbit, neither of these features are updating. Very disappointing by and it means I don’t want to use it anymore.

However I will rate the customer service. I wouldn’t call it prompt, but they are friendly, super helpful, and really try to work out the issues.
