### 3/5 — Not really free

*2024-06-12, version 8.6.6*

This works via a subscription model and the basic free version has very limited choices for inputting food types. I tried to put my most recent lunch in, couldn’t, and then uninstalled

### 3/5 — Uninstalled instantly

*2023-07-12, version 8.6.6*

It essentially makes it so u cant record certain things in ur diet like marmite. Cant go a day without marmite man

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-08-26, version 8.2.6*

I’m able to track my food and with subscription to the in app purchase I’m able to input my own recipes for tracking. There is a note section where I track my glucose levels and blood pressure so I can correlate spikes with foods I’ve eaten.

### 5/5 — So happy to have discovered this app!

*2022-07-26*

I recently realized that my diet had been low in certain nutrients and minerals. Food Diary is an easy way to log and keep track, to make sure I am eating healthily. My diet and my health has improved since I’ve been using Food Diary. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Easy

*2021-10-04, version 5.4*

Good easy program, can’t always find the exact food I’m looking for.

### 5/5 — Brilliant App

*2021-08-30, version 5.4*

### 5/5 — Good To Track

*2021-07-25, version 5.4*

I love this app

### 4/5 — Clear and Easy

*2021-07-10*

This app is straightforward and easy to use, making my calorie intake tracking simple enough to use long term for slower healthy weight loss. Been using it for over 6 months and still going.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Used to be great but not any more

*2025-01-05, version 9.0.6*

Changes mean that you can’t access anything that makes this useful without paying

### 1/5 — Too pricey

*2024-06-21, version 8.6.6*

Too basic

### 1/5 — Didn’t Work After I paid for the premium subscription

*2024-05-08, version 8.6.6*

I paid for the premium subscription. Still most items would not unlock. I contacted customer service and no response.

### 1/5 — Looks good, wouldn’t know.

*2024-03-27, version 8.6.6*

There’s no free trial available, and access to whole natural foods is only available if you commit to the subscription.
It looks really nice, and it looks user friendly. But I couldn’t enter half the details for one meal because I eat healthy.

### 1/5 — This App Dies Everything, Except Work!

*2022-08-13, version 8.2.4*

So bummed - this app interface is great and it does exactly what I wanted… it just doesn’t work! None of my edits are saved. It just seems super glitchy. I really wanted it to work- boo!

### 1/5 — Confusing.

*2021-02-21, version 5.4*

Way too much work recording and submitting. Not ok or simple.

### 1/5 — Stinko!

*2020-03-05, version 5.4*

Used the app (free version) for about 5 weeks.  At the end of the 5th week, all the data I had entered for the previous 5 days simply disappeared.   Stinko!  I will find another program.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2019-08-10, version 5.4*

It makes you pay for certain foods

### 1/5 — You gotta pay!!!!

*2019-03-28, version 5.3*

Overall the design is good but when you try to add items from the app’s database you soon find that most of the items require you to become a paying subscriber to this app ....very disappointing... I uninstalled immediately... warning: don’t waste your time!!!

### 1/5 — Ridiculous

*2019-03-02, version 5.2*

Useless, you can only log certain foods for free. If you happen to eat something that’s not “free” you have to subscribe ! I happen to have potato and leek soup for lunch- but I wasn’t able to select that without paying a subscription! Having to pay to unlock certain foods is a joke. App deleted. I’ll go back to pen and paper!

Cómo puedo usar la versión anterior era más sencilla y fácil de agregar los alimentos a la perfección amo esta app pero deseo más la versión anterior

### 5/5 — I love this app

### 5/5 — Use

*2024-03-14, version 8.6.6*

Very easy

### 5/5 — Pudding

*2023-12-18, version 8.6.6*

Great

### 5/5 — Perfect for purpose!

*2023-09-30, version 8.6.6*

Fantastic app, clean, easy to navigate to the various elements. Being creative I have also varied the usability of the app to include sleep patterns, migraines and medications without any fuss at all. And the Report feature picks it all up inclusively. So much can be done with this app and I feel that only your imagination limits its uses. Well worth its paid value. New version I found confusing I reverted back to old version, much simpler.

### 5/5 — A quick.....

.....and easy way to track my daily food/calories intake. Just what I was looking for!
