Not ready for actual use. DO NOT PURCHASE
I purchased this app based on the fact that it could integrate with Garmin and/or Intervals.icu. In both cases it was not able to do so. I messaged support over 10 days ago to see about a refund. I got one email back suggesting that I try to reconnect the app Garmin and intervals.icu. This is something I had already tried before I messaged support. After trying it for a third time and it still not working, I messaged support for a refund. I have not been ghosted for over 5 days. DO NOT fall for the claims that the developer has regarding the app integration. This is nowhere near ready for actual use.

What happened?
It was pretty good when I started just under a year ago, tho I haven’t achieved my goals of losing the weight, not for not following the daily course but for sleep deprivation reasons, I believe this is a great tool. I took a break since you’re not ever really going to lose weight if you can’t sleep no matter how well you follow this. Coming back after getting the sleep fixed there has been a major update, the problem is I get kicked out everyday and have to log in over and over again. Guys, please fix this!

Don’t buy
I am an avid cyclist and used to like this app. They then released a major update ruining the app. The app now has a much smaller food database. In addition it no longer recognizes products from major cycling food brands. A significant number of foods only support grams and not other measurements. The app now sucks. I am canceling my subscription at the end of my contract period and I am considering moving to a new app express then. Nice job Hexis!!!!!

Recent Database update
I like Hexis, I love what it is trying to achieve, and I found it useful. That was until last week and the Database ‘update’ last week.
It has basically left it unusable for me.
All custom foods gone.
All UK based foods gone.
My custom meals all messed up.
I’m pretty annoyed to be honest, it’s the start of race season and whilst it is not the be all and end all, Hexis was a tool that I could rely on to dial in my nutrition. Now it’s useless for me.
I am seeking to cancel my subscription until a time when Hexis is back and functional.

This app isn’t for sedentary calorie counters
This app isn’t for sedentary calorie counters and that’s the point
Most of the bad reviews are from people trying to use Hexis like MyFitnessPal. That’s the wrong audience.
Hexis is built for endurance athletes whose fueling needs change every day based on training load. It syncs with real training data and teaches you when and how much to eat not to obsess over logging lettuce.
Once you understand the small / medium / large carb approach, it’s far more useful than traditional calorie apps. I can look at my training and immediately know how to fuel, even when traveling or eating out.
If you’re sedentary and just want to “stay under calories,” stick with MyFitnessPal.
If you actually train and care about performance, Hexis is on another level.
