Pop up
Every time I open the app there is always a pop up trying to get me to pay for the membership, which just makes me not want to pay for the membership lol
I used to love this app before the AI….
The AI features somehow made the app worse. Finding food, tracking it, building meals, the options all went away and I paid for the full version hoping that would fix it. Such a disappointment to see a good app ruined by AI that should have enhanced it.
A waste of time
Not only is 90% of the features in this app behind a paywall, but if you have slow metabolism, I highly doubt you will lose any weight. After following the rules and eating limits for a week, not only did I not lose any weight, but I gained FOUR POUNDS. I used this app for a mere week, and I gained 4 pounds. Please do not waste your time on this app.

TERRIBLE AI
I used to love this app. Recommended it to everyone. Used it for YEARS but it has become TERRIBLE. The AI is just awful.
This app will is pretty good
The apps is alright it’s just hard to track food by there real name. I am Mexican and the foods I eat have specific names. The app doesn’t have those foods. I have had to put the foods individually into the app. Everything else is ok.
Great tracking app!!
Easy to use!!
User Interface sucks..
I used Lifesum in 2018. It helped me go down from 61-56. Result wise, amazing. The app though? Oof… I signed up again even though I found it really lacking back then, hoping for some change but not much has changed and if I were to draw a flowchart for how the app works, it’s so so confusing which leads to a lot of time being wasted and me wanting to almost give up using the app. I’ve decided not to renew again which is a bummer because result wise, it gives you the result.
I was a UX/UI student when I first got the app in 2018 and I redesigned many aspects of it for a class project and I think that made a lot more sense than this does. Please change the UI.. it’s so frustrating to work with

Very good calorie tracker
Ux improvement: please make 'meal' adjustable when saved. It always saves some ingredient in my breakfast lunch or dinner of the day and not in the meal.
Love the app but…
When I make a meal or recipe it asks for the amount of servings and the thing is I never know. It changes day to day depending on how much I want to eat and I rather it calculate the amount of ounces in the full pot and let me do my input with ounces instead of the servings . Throws off my macro calculations too

Love this app
Easy to record and review data, and gathers data from my Apple Watch seamlessly.
Ai Ruined This App
I’ve used this app on and off for years and loved it. However, with the introduction of Ai to the tracking, it’s become wildly inaccurate. I can tell it the same item from one day to another and get completely different nutrition results. Not a small margin of error but massive swings. Then, you have to take the time to go and adjust every single meal. It. Becomes so time consuming and frustrating to spend double the time logging items on the same app that use to work so well.

Liking it so far but wish it included fiber tracking
It’s a nice app and easy to use. The AI seems to work pretty well too. The only thing I wish that were either added to macros or just tracking in general is fiber, since most people don’t get the daily requirement for fiber but it’s so important for your health. Hoping you’ll add it in at some point but keep up the good work! ♥️

Useless! Incorrect macros even when you scan a label
I scanned multiple labels and each time the carbs and protein and calories were input differently than the nutrition label shows them. The app doesn’t allow you to edit that info so tracking your macros with this app results in inaccurate data
Fab App
Loving this app! So easy to use and the barcode option covers food from England and Norway which is perfect for me. It’s worked a dream so far and I have lost 1 stone already - bang on time. Highly recommend.
Some small changes could be good
Had the app for years and loved it, recently got premium and it's still good, but there's a couple improvements that would make a lot of difference, at least to me. When it says the meal is imbalanced or lacking in a certain macro, it would be really helpful if it could suggest a change like "remove this ingredient" or "add this" to make it easier.
Id also appreciate more meal plans other than the vegan one, as I love the recipes but it would be a lot easier with a tailored shopping list. Otherwise an option to record your shopping list then have the AI offer a recipe using those/one of the additions needed to balance the meal, could be good. These might understandably be a bit complicated to actually do though.
Overall love the app!

Macros saving to zero
I really don’t like it how sometimes when you custom input your own nutrition lets say for example I know the weight and macros for X amount of bourbon chicken from Leanne Chin so I’ll take a separate AI give it my gram total have that tell me my macros for that amount and then I’ll copy paste macros Into lifesum and then sometimes later in the day it’ll sshow all zeros for the nutrition sometimes it’ll stick and then disappear later and that’s really annoying especially when I’m on a tight macro budget and things keep on resetting it’s frustrating please fix that.
Also, the AI itself isn’t that good but it has been getting better but I often use ChatGPT or perplexity give it my food weight have it tell me the macros and then paste that into this app. I wish I could just tell it for example“Taco Bell spicy potato taco.” and it actually put in the right macros instead of some random wrong ones. I have to either save that as a custom food recipe or google it each time and then put in those macros and then sometimes that might just get zeroed out because of the glitch anyways. I also often get logged out of the app on my watch last time while I was typing in my email though it randomly jumped me back in.
Update: I found signing out of the app then logging back in fixes the glitch. I’m not sure if it’s just temporary though.

This is how I keep myself accountable
I love this app, but the only thing I don’t like is that you have to pay for the advanced options but you have to do that with any app so it’s really not that big of a deal I suppose.
Pop ups are so irritating
I have used this app for years both the free version and the paid version. I love it, it does everything I want it to and is easy to use. However, currently I am using the free version and the amount of pop ups to subscribe is intolerable to the point I don’t use it. Every time you open the app there is an ad to subscribe that takes ages to load. I just want to track my water intake and put my snack in. If you’re going the paid route, it’s great, if you’re looking for a free tracker, unfortunately, look elsewhere until they change this.

Extremely slow
User since 2021. Extremely laggy since the latest updates. App takes ages to just open. The food logger is failing to register items after they are scanned and added. It takes 2–3 attempts for an entry to actually save.
Pretty good for a free app
It’s nice for being free and it’s easy to track calories now. The recipes aren’t free though which is a bummer but understandable
