I guess I need to learn how to be less impulsive The AI is terrible at guessing what you have in front of you ultimately the only way to make this thing really work is to buy the hardware the scale. The guesstimated portions are way out of whack. And I’m wrestling with the GUI constantly to get a proper entry. ### 4/5 — Love this *2025-11-02* Love this app for tracking my intake - wish the meal part was a little more user friendly but it does an amazing job helping me stay accountable and aware ### 4/5 — Needs some bug fixes *2025-08-16* Only captures my workouts sometimes ### 3/5 — kinda misleading, but good *2025-08-03, version 1.7.201* easiest and best free weight loss app i’ve ever used. the ad shower it as a health app like to treat symptoms and stuff tho so if tahts all youre looking for steer clear ### 3/5 — ‼️ *2025-07-02* Everything is coo just don’t like that you have to pay so I just go around the subscription ### 2/5 — Way too expensive for what it is! *2025-06-16* Spending more money does not get you a better product. While the AI feature is cool it does absolutely nothing to help you. The log meal feature, is often inaccurate. you cannot change your start date or first shot date. I do hope they fix these features soon since I already spent the money but as of right now, totally not worth it ### 4/5 — Great for GLP 1 tracking *2025-06-07* Only lost a star because I would love to have tennis as one of the workouts you can add ### 3/5 — Apple Watch issues *2025-05-26, version 1.6.2* I love the app on my phone but was also told about how it also connects with your Apple Watch so I bought a brand new $500 Apple Watch to connect it to get way better results and it won’t connect to my Apple Watch at all I have contacted the company and no response to why it won’t connect and the error code I am given ### 5/5 — Weight loss tracker *2025-05-19, version 1.6.2* Enjoying seeing my journey ### 5/5 — I can do it *2025-05-11, version 1.6.1* Every week ### 5/5 — I love it. *2025-05-11* I always forget to remind myself when to take my medicine, and this helps a lot. I also like that it tracks my weight and my food. ### 3/5 — Love it Miss Smartwatch *2025-05-09, version 1.6.1* I love this app, but wish I could match my smartwatch to it ### 5/5 — Maxbud *2025-05-04, version 1.6.1* I love this app! Helps me keep on track and reminds me to eat cause my appetite is suppressed. ### 5/5 — Brilliant app *2025-04-30, version 1.6.1* This is brilliant. Bit annoying with some foods as it assumes the size u r having is more than u have and it doesnt have the option to change it. Apart from that its a fantastic app ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Had no warning this app was shutting down *2026-07-20, version 1.10.0* In the uk and all app data is now gone. I had been using this for years. Very disappointing ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2026-07-12, version 1.10.0* The app stopped working for me today. There’s no way I can figure out to contact anyone to try to get my information for my last seven months of weight loss, which is quite disappointing because this is the only place I was tracking it very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Very Disappointed *2026-07-09, version 1.10.0* The app is not reading food labels and most barcodes unsure why you took The years subscription cost when it isn't doing what it's supposedly designed to do ### 1/5 — No real free trial *2025-07-30, version 1.7.201* Signed up and was charged for the full year prior to the 3 day free trial being completed, Apple says the charge is not eligible for a refund. ### 1/5 — Needs improvement not worth it *2025-05-29, version 1.6.2* Stops working all the time ### 1/5 — Old school technology *2025-05-02, version 1.6.1* Not impressed at all! The scan feature is awful, restaurants are not searchable. I’d request a refund if I could figure out how! ### 1/5 — Not Happy *2025-04-22, version 1.6.0* It works for keeping track of water intake, calories, etc. but it doesn’t properly track for your shot. I take mounjaro, which is a weekly shot, and I have it set to be on a specific day every week. But the app sends me a reminder every single day at 11pm and I haven’t been able to figure out why. App aside, even if it was perfect and worked 100% great, it wouldn’t be worth the monthly price of $12.99. That also aside - whoever is running this company and their marketing needs to be fired and this company needs to give their head a shake. Their advertisement is literally someone saying to themselves: “I wish I wasn’t fat” and “I wish I wasn’t gay”. What an absolutely horrific way to advertise your business. Absolutely disgusting. I cancelled as soon as I saw that on their social media. I will not support a company that portrays stuff like that and uses it for marketing and ads. Gross. I suggest you skip this app. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-04-14, version 1.5.5* The concept of this app is great. In reality.. it can’t even track your weight/ food input properly. I would strongly advise against paying for this. ### 1/5 — Would like a refund *2025-03-29* I paid for a full year of this app, hoping it would function better. I initially thought it might just have limited free features, but that wasn't the case. I really like the concept, but I believe the app needs significant improvements before it can be fully released. ### 1/5 — Very disappointing *2025-03-20, version 1.5.2* The idea for the app is good but sadly it just isn’t functional. Unable to adjust quantities or enter meals manually. Images and barcodes are rarely recognised and even when they are the nutritional value is sometimes inaccurate. Frustrating user experience and not worth the cost. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-02-04, version 1.8.1* So accurate for weight loss ### 5/5 — Great tracker!!! *2025-10-02* This app has made it easier to track my diet as well as when to take my shot. Keeping track of calories has never been easier. U can take a picture of the food, barcode, or food label. I also love that u can ask Max (their ai) about any nutrition question u may have. Love this app!!💚 ### 5/5 — Excellent *2025-09-01, version 1.7.302* Could not do my mounjaro journey without it! Tracks my calories, proteins etc and water and exercise ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2025-07-12, version 1.7.1* The app really helps me track my progress and side effects. Using the app has helped me identify any strange side effects quicker and I find the comparison pics really helpful ### 5/5 — Really good *2025-06-28, version 1.7.1* I love this app ### 5/5 — Very helpful App for New GLP-1 User *2025-06-25* I have recently started my GLP-1 shot and I am afraid to forgot do my shot so I download this app not only this app could tell me when I should do my shot but also I can record what I eat everyday in the app also at the same time there are AI I can talk to and ask a bunch of questions about GLP and weight loss now I have lost few pounds already I love this app and it really helped me a lot in every aspect of weight losing ### 5/5 — I love this app *2025-06-22* I saw someone’s post on TikTok and she has mentioned the app she uses so I downloaded it. I like it so far it’s very helpful you can take a screenshot or photo of your meals snacks and it will calculate the calories and proteins carbs and fiber so easy ### 5/5 — It reminds me to be consistent *2025-06-01* I’m actually updating the app so I look back and if I feel off or didn’t get to where I want to I know where to look back to make changes. ### 5/5 — Works perfectly *2025-05-25, version 1.6.2* Love this app , it works so perfectly for me. I use the free option and has all the things that I need. ### 5/5 — Accountability 🙌 *2025-05-21* Starting out on Ozempic was overwhelming and I’m so thankful for Maxbud helping me break down to keep me on track. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
