### 2/5 — Won’t load to watch

*2020-12-09, version 1.0.7*

Did everything to get this stupid app to download onto my watch. The wheel keeps turning but won’t load. HELP!!!!! Fix the problem please. I paid 1.99 for what

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2018-12-29, version 1.0.7*

I like the suggestions on what to eat and what not to eat this changes based on time, type of food and calories that have been taken in. Need a better way to measure liquids.

### 5/5 — Best app ever!!!!

*2017-08-16, version 1.0.7*

Best app ever! Minimal but specific! I already lost 3 pound in two weeks just following the app! Thank you guys!!!! Keep doing good work with this app and please add more features to it!!!

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2016-05-05, version 1.0.3*

It's hard to guesstimate portion sizes.  Better examples of what a medium portion is would be great...like about the size of a tennis ball...for example.   I like how it lets me know how good my eating habits are though.
