A search for “steel cut oats” comes up empty. So does “oatmeal.” It did recognize “boiled eggs” yet it failed to add them to my daily menu. This app is for smart people only! ### 2/5 — Langsam und dauernder Verlust der Zugangsdaten *2025-09-09, version 3.10.1* Die App als solches ist nicht schlecht. Die Ladezeiten (iPhone 16 Pro) sind grausig, zum Start bis zu 3 Sekunden weißer Bildschirm. Wahrscheinlich keine native App. Was wirklich nervt, ist der ständige Verlust der Anmeldedaten!!! Bitte beides nachbessern! ### 1/5 — Passwort *2025-08-15, version 3.10.0* Für mich ist es unmöglich, ein Passwort zu erstellen. Ich hab alles versucht, bestimmt 30 mal ein unterschiedliches Passwort eingegeben und es klappt nicht. Bin jetzt genervt. ### 3/5 — Bien mais *2025-06-17, version 3.9.2* Lorsque l’on ajoute les repas, on devrait avoir la possibilité sélectionner la quantité. J’ai mangé des brochettes de saumon mais je suis contraint d’indiquer 150g alors que c’est beaucoup moins ce qui fausse les résultats sur la journée. ### 1/5 — Leider trotz korrekter Mail Adresse keine Konto Erstellung möglich da kein Code gesendet wird. *2025-03-25, version 3.9.0* Schade ### 3/5 — Es fehlen einfachste Grundnahrungsmittel *2025-01-23, version 3.8.1* Das Ernährungstagebuch funktioniert nur wenn man sich an die Rezepte oder die verfügbaren Lebensmittel hält. Viele einfachste Lebensmittel fehlen, wie z.B. Milch und Ei. Viele sind nur in Kombination mit anderen verfügbar. So muss ich oft ausweichen, Kombinationen mit zusätzlichen Lebensmitteln wählen, was dann aber auch wieder die Bilanz verfälscht. Zum Beispiel statt Kaffee mit Milch (Erfassung für die Phosphatbilanz), Kaffee mit Milch und Zucker. Was bei der Ernährungsberatung oder den Dialyseärzten zur Diskussion führt, ich würde zu viel Zucker zu mir nehmen. Gäbe es Milch einzeln könnte ich wenigstens einmal Kaffee und einmal Milch separat auswählen. Das betrifft leider viele Grundnahrungsmittel. Und dann die Rezepte. Wähle ich Phosphat- und Kaliumarm, sind es fast nur noch Rezepte für Süßspeisen / Desserts. So schön die App gestaltet ist, das Ernährungstagebuch ist für mich leider unbrauchbar. ### 2/5 — Export? *2024-09-26, version 3.7.1* Keine Möglichkeit Daten zB als pdf auszugeben um zB dem Arzt zu übergeben ### 3/5 — Bemerkungen Eingabe laborwewerten *2024-09-15, version 3.7.1* 1.Es fehlen die Laborabkürzungen in laborwerten! 2.Nach Änderungen von laborwerten springt der Wert immer wieder in der vorherige eingestellten Wert. 3.Wenn laborwerte eingestellt sein kann man nichts mehr ändern. ### 4/5 — Zufrieden *2024-09-02, version 3.6.4* Mir hilft es gut die Werte Kalium und Phosphor im Auge zu haben! Allerdings könnte die Lebensmittelauswahl ein bisschen größer sein. ### 4/5 — Tolle App mit Potenzial *2024-06-19, version 3.6.3* Klasse, endlich kann ich mir ein gutes Bild meines Zustandes machen. Toll wäre für eine bessere Planung und Kontrolle Grammaturen kleinteiliger eingeben zu können. Weiter so. ## Frequently asked questions about Mizu ### What does Mizu do?
