### 1/5 — taking away free parts

*2026-09-04, version 18.4.800*

i’ve used this app on and off for the past four years, and every time i come back to it another feature has been changed so they can make more money. the step feature used to be free, now you have to pay premium for that. now, there’s ads after you finish your log for the day with a premium that only removes those ads. the only reason i have the app anymore is for the community but once i find a different one im done.

### 3/5 — Make it more customizable

*2026-09-04, version 18.4.800*

I like lose it, but there’s two changes that would be very helpful. 

1. Let us decide our macros and not what lose it suggests. I want a high protein with certain fats and carbs but I cannot customize it to my plan, I can only get it “close” and I don’t like that. 

2. All photos take should be easily accessed all together rather than going to every day, or let us compare them!

### 3/5 — Custom recipe

*2026-09-04, version 18.4.800*

Love this app. BUT the custom recipe feature makes me want to lose it! Each time I add an ingredient to a recipe it makes a whole new recipe. So by the time I finish putting 12 ingredients in, I end up with 12 separate custom recipes. And then, when you try to delete 11 duplicate recipes it won't unless you delete each ingredient from the recipe. Other than that I love it.

### 1/5 — Weird app.

*2026-09-04, version 18.4.800*

I’m trying to gain weight not lose weight didn’t even give me an option to do that. Weird .

### 5/5 — Losing weight

*2026-09-03, version 18.4.800*

I am so proud of myself to being back to tracking calories and weight loss. Taking gummies and getting treadmill soon. May start the ryze coffee soon too.

### 5/5 — Lose It Fr

*2026-09-03, version 18.4.800*

I have used Lose It on and off several times, and have yet to be disappointed. I’ve tried other fitness apps, but I keep coming back due to the awesome features and how easy it is to use. It’s got great features, it’s straightforward, and it’s effective. I’ve enjoyed how it allows you to log practically any food item, recipe, or workout. They also have meal ideas, advice, and so much more to really help with your fitness journey. I’ve lost over 20lbs using Lose It. 
	I used to use the free version, but I upgraded to premium because of how much I use this app. The features are extensive, and simple to use. Before I started using Lose It, I barely knew anything about health or fitness, but now, after reading information provided in the app, I feel like I can understand what food actually fuels me, and what food hurts my body. 
	I can’t say enough good things about this app! It’s great! I love it, and will continue using it, even after I’ve achieved my fitness goals. I really hope you try it, and that it will change your life as much as it did mine.

### 4/5 — Sugar Alcohols

*2026-09-03, version 18.4.800*

Great App, thank you, but why are Sugar Alcohols not an available nutrient that can be captured)? Like Fiber, Sugar Alcohols allow for more accurate measurement of Net Carbs. I use Allulose as a sugar substitute and when a tablespoon is 16g of Carbs, Lose-it includes the full 16g as Carb Intake. When, in reality, those Carbs are 16g Sugar Alcohol so Net Carbs = Zero.

### 4/5 — Water Tracking

*2026-09-03, version 18.4.800*

I love using this app, but there’s one feature that is locked behind paying for an upgrade that, to me, never made sense to hide behind a paywall. 

You offer so much in the ability for the un-paid users to track their calories and macros, giving access—for free—to a large library of pre-saved foods with their nutrition facts… WHY would you not include water intake tracking as part of that free experience? The purpose of the paid upgrade is for (1) no ads, and (2) premium diet programming. With water intake being a BASIC part of nutrition I don’t see why it should be hidden behind a paywall.

### 5/5 — Easy Tracking

*2026-09-03, version 18.4.800*

Easy Tracking, Love the ease and time saving aspects of this app. Tracking, steps , workout etc. It’s very convenient.

### 1/5 — Recent update ramped up ads aggressively and it’s now basically unusable

*2026-09-03, version 18.4.800*

That was the only thing this app had over myfitnesspal but they went the same direction by paywalling features as simple as adding calories to a different day
