Based on the questions it asked it generated a very low calorie set point and I didn’t get to the meal suggestions part because it wanted me to pay. But it hadn’t asked me about any dietary restrictions just choose 1 of 4 options for diet style. **Developer response:** Hi! Did you know our app also has a free version that doesn't require payment? The subscription is optional and offers an ad-free experience, but it's not necessary. Monetizing our app helps us to keep improving the app and its features. We hope you'll continue to use it and eventually upgrade your review. It would mean a lot to us. Regards, Mau ### 1/5 — HATE IT *2026-07-15, version 1.0.13* It’s not free at all !! You have to pay just to log a meal I don’t understand literally sucks deleting this asap ### 1/5 — 350р в НЕДЕЛЮ *2026-07-08* . **Developer response:** Hello! Could you please provide more details about the issues you're experiencing by emailing us at contact@mwm.io? This will help us assist you better. Thank you! Hannah ### 1/5 — money grab *2026-06-28, version 1.0.11* you can’t add food or water or change weight for more than ~3 days without it not working and popping a notification requiring you to pay for premium ### 1/5 — Couldn’t even log my first meal *2026-05-12* I was disappointed with Bitepal, so I tried this instead. But I couldn’t even get my first meal logged. I just hit error after error after error, no matter how hard I tried to log. MyFitnessPal is not as fun, it’s definitely more complicated and more expensive, but it is not riddled with errors and is super accurate! **Developer response:** Hello! I'm sorry to hear about your experience with the app. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling it? This can often resolve many issues. If the problem persists, I recommend reaching out to the customer support team at MWM for further assistance. You can contact them at support-mycal@mwm.io. I hope this helps! ### 1/5 — Costs money after like two days of use *2026-05-03* I wasn’t able to use it after one or two days of using it without being forced to pay to continue tracking, this obviously messes up my tracking and was so upsetting that there wasn’t just a worse free version on the app, I deleted it after I couldn’t continue because 70 dollars a year is absurd **Developer response:** Hi there :) Thank you for your feedback. We understand your concern about the pricing. We are constantly reviewing our pricing model to provide the best value for our users. Your input is valuable to us as we strive to improve the app. Furthermore, we often offer discounts so, stay tuned ! If you need help, reach out to us! Adèle ### 1/5 — Unhealthy *2026-04-30, version 1.0.3* You might lose the weight but not in the healthy way 1200 calories a day for a growing teenager is not realistic or healthy for the body ### 2/5 — PAY? *2026-08-09, version 1.0.13* Idk why I have to pay a subscription so I can lose weight for a little guide but I like how it gives recipes ### 2/5 — I'm not obese? *2026-07-09, version 1.0.11* When I said I was 95 lbs at 11 years old the app said I was obese and overweight and tried to make me pay. ### 3/5 — Kinda works *2026-09-13* Whenever I track something it assumes, I’m eating the most calories and I’ve counted it and I have to go fix it and it’s kind of annoying, but it works. I really hate the new update, though. I really like how the old version was much easier had to cancel my subscription, but it was really worth it. **Developer response:** Hi! :) I understand how frustrating it can be when updates change the way you track your calories, especially if the previous version worked better for you. It’s great to hear that you found value in the old version, even if it meant canceling your subscription. If you have any specific feedback about the new update, sharing it with the developers might help improve future versions. Hang in there!
