Very easy to use and not a bad price. very user-friendly in the talking helps enter the information. Will continue to use !!! ### 2/5 — Point Allowance Not Updating *2024-08-16, version 1.9.7* I have changed my weight in the settings by over 200 lbs & the number of daily points allowed still says the same amount as 200 lbs heavier. Please fix. ### 5/5 — Easy to Track *2024-08-16, version 1.9.7* Great app…it tracks WW points along with macros to help you reach your goals faster. Very user friendly. I love how easy it is to track! Give it a try… you’ll be glad you did. ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-08-12, version 1.9.7* I love this app to track calories and physical activity. It is very hands on and so helpful. Very easy to use. ### 5/5 — Great! *2024-07-22* Enjoy this app **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you're enjoying the app. ### 5/5 — So far, so good *2024-07-19* I’m liking the app so far. I like that you can customize how you want your macro breakdown to be whether you are focusing on low carbs or keto or just low calories. I also like that your macros are front and center at the top so that it’s easy to see where you are at a glance. Layout seems easy to use. I also like that water intake is right there on the main screen as well. One of the few apps that allow you to mimic the flex point programs on weight watcher with the zero point foods. **Developer response:** We're delighted to hear you're enjoying the app's customization, intuitive layout, and features like macro visibility and water tracking. Thank you for your wonderful feedback! ### 2/5 — I tried *2024-06-25, version 1.9.7* Good price. I liked that I could scan barcodes. That is all I liked. The video never played. The point system didn’t help motivate me. Maybe the video would have helped. Paid already and it is for a year.😢 ### 5/5 — Functional free point tracker *2024-06-21, version 1.9.7* So far I like this alternative to WW app. I like its ease of use and flexibility. You have the option to choose whether or not a food is considered 0 points on any of the point plans. The is nice if you want to follow a more recent WW system without upgrading to the paid version. You would probably just want to reduce the amount of weekly points to make up for the difference in points allowed between plans. ### 4/5 — Good tracking app *2024-04-17* This app is good to track your meals. It’s easy to use and there are a lot of neat features included. There are different settings for the type of meal plan you are trying to follow. It helps you track your progress. It is easy to understand and learn how to use. A lot of the features are free to use but there is also a pro setting that gives you a few more choices. I was using this app years ago and slowly gained my weight back so I am starting again to get back to my goal and will be using this app to help get back on track. Definitely a great tool for your weight loss journey. The points seems to be off compared to the actual smart point company but still a good starting point. **Developer response:** Thank you for the wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear our app is a great tool for your journey and that you're returning to use it. We appreciate you highlighting the point comparison; if you have specific details you'd like to share, please reach out to us at highteqsolutions.feedback@gmail.com. ### 5/5 — Impressive app for weight loss *2024-04-15, version 1.9.7* This app seems to be very similar to the weight watchers counting app. I have seen many great reviews on this particular alternative weight loss tool. I am excited to give this one a try. ### 5/5 — Good tracking app *2024-04-07* This app is good to track your meals. It’s easy to use and there are a lot of neat features included. There are different settings for the type of meal plan you are trying to follow. It helps you track your progress. It is easy to understand and learn how to use. A lot of the features are free to use but there is also a pro setting that gives you a few more choices.

Definitely a great tool for your weight loss journey. ### 5/5 — New option for tracking *2024-04-01, version 1.9.7* I found this new application for tracking calories for weight loss. I have had great success with ww but wanted another option so I wouldn’t have to pay a monthly fee. I decided to give this one a try as it seems to have everything I need. ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-03-20, version 1.9.7* I was looking for an app to try to count calories and lose weight and I found it! Very simple to use and it gives me insight of nutrition facts for foods, recipes and more. I’m starting my weight loss journey again and this app gives the confidence of reaching my goals. It’s such a great tool! ### 5/5 — What a great app! *2024-03-17* What a great way to keep you diet on track. Convenient and useful. I can’t say enough about how much I like having a way to easily track my eating. This app makes all your diet tracking easy. I feel I can really see what I’m eating and where I can improve my eating habits and how much weight loss is possible. Thank you for providing such a reasonably priced app to help track my diet. I Love the recipes just terrific and easy to follow for healthy meals and lots of options. I have tried other things but never found them so easy and helpful for my diet tracking. **Developer response:** Thanks for valuable feedback and keep using our app! ### 5/5 — Portion control *2024-01-22* This app helps with portion control and accountability **Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback! We're glad to hear our app helps with portion control and accountability. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not able to update! *2025-02-18, version 1.9.7* Program is picky and often freezes. Can’t renew. Contacted developer with no response. ### 1/5 — Frustrated *2024-09-23* I paid for the pro portion of the app and when I tried to connect it to my health app the app did not work. I also tried to search activities to add an activity and the search does not work. Day 1 and already unhappy with this app ### 1/5 — Beware *2024-05-23, version 1.9.7* As soon as I opened this app, it offered me a great deal for a year. I accepted. I can't connect Apple Health. It will go back and forth between 2 screens. This is too buggy and not a great deal at all. Apple says I'm not eligible for a refund, and of course, the devos don't respond. Pay WW. Its much less aggravating. ### 1/5 — App is bugged down *2024-02-22, version 1.9.7* I just paid for pro and the calculator to create a food won’t pull the right formula. The recipes only found adult beverages, apple health won’t connect, and restaurant feature won’t pull but previous restaurant ### 1/5 — Can’t access PRO *2023-12-27, version 1.9.7* I just paid for the PRO subscription and still can’t access any of the PRO features. There is also no way to contact anyone about this issue. Horrible service! ### 1/5 — Restaurant information *2023-09-18, version 1.9.5* Restaurant feature doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Don’t Waste Your Money *2023-07-08, version 1.9.5* I paid for this app to track my points but the only thing I could track was workouts. Waste of my money. Not a happy camper ### 1/5 — Unable to contact customer support *2023-05-21, version 1.9.4* I signed up and paid for a plan, purchase went through, entered my info and was excited to start. It keeps asking me to re enter my weight and info, then choose a plan, when I click a plan it says already subscribed. I tried to email them on the website and it keeps saying something went wrong. Seems like I’ll have to just cancel and get a reimbursement from apple, friend uses this app and it works well and is really fairly priced but this level of frustration is insane for a sign up ### 1/5 — If details don’t matter to you then this is good enough *2022-11-22, version 1.9.4* I lost 25lbs on weight watchers last year. Decided to try other (cheaper) options for maintenance since WW is pretty expensive. This is one of two apps I found that is pretty close. Close enough to justify the cost savings? IF details don’t matter to you. If you enter your current weight at 131.5, for example, it will save it as 131.4 or 131.6, but NEVER 131.5, no matter how many times you enter it. Same thing when you enter your goal weight. You’ll enter 125 but it’ll show up as 124.9 or 125.1, but NEVER 125, no matter what you do! Are you 5’3? Not anymore! You’re 5’2 today! And you’ll be 5’4 tomorrow! So, it makes me question the accuracy of other things in the app. Plus, it bugs the crap outta me that it does this. So I’m sticking with the other WW dupe (Healthi) for now. **changed from two stars to one after the developers replied to my review and I have reached out to them TWICE and nobody has gotten back to me. **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. We’d like to know the details of the problem you mentioned. Please send the details or screenshot to feedback@maximaapps.com. We'll pass it along to our development team and see if there is any way we can improve it. ### 1/5 — I can’t create a meal *2022-07-26, version 1.9.4* I had a free trial of the complete app for leaving a 5-star 100-word review. I was able to create a meal then. But once my free trail was up and I actually paid money for the complete version, I couldn’t create a meal anymore. I tap on Add Food and nothing happens. I have emailed them twice asking them to fix it and still nothing. July 2022 Update. It is about four months later and still nothing. I’ve asked for my money back and have gotten no response. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Weight lose *2025-09-04, version 1.9.7* Doing great ### 5/5 — Good Weight Loss App *2025-07-22, version 1.9.7* I've been on Weight Watchers in the past. I did not like paying a monthly membership, so this should be a good opportunity to try another option. ### 5/5 — My diet struggle *2025-06-19, version 1.9.7* I have only been using this app for a few days with the free version and I can already tell that it will help me tremendously. After using the app for a while I think it’s one of the best I’ve used. It is definitely worth buying the paid version and I love that it has 0 points food listed. Thank you so much for the app had no problems with it whatsoever. ### 5/5 — My diet struggle *2025-06-09* I have only been using this app for a few days with the free version and I can already tell that it will help me tremendously to be able to have the pro version. I like the fact that I could track the zero points food and be able to see recipes and be able to create recipes of my own. I like the fact that I could track all vitamins and keep up with what I’m taking. It’s so handy to be able to use the barcode scanner and find points and also to be able to check that something is 0 points. I would also like to be able to track calories as well as other nutritional information. This app is by far the best I’ve downloaded so far on my weight loss journey and plan to buy it I think once my old subscription to another app has ended. **Developer response:** Dear User, We are incredibly grateful for your valuable feedback. Thank You! ### 5/5 — Update Foods, please! *2025-05-23, version 1.9.7* I just started using the app, and like it so far. So much more affordable than weight watchers! HOWEVER, the “free foods” and poi t allowances REALLY need to be updated on the paid versions. (e.g. lean ground beef should be included on the “free” foods list as of 2025, if not before) Otherwise, it seems functional and very similar to WW. ### 5/5 — Good App *2025-04-22, version 1.9.7* Tracks my points and activity ### 5/5 — Cool *2025-04-20, version 1.9.7* Finally I found a good app that I don’t need to pay for to use the app for my workout I use it for calorie. Counting ### 5/5 — Mdeco85 *2025-04-01* Much more affordable than similar tracking apps **Developer response:** Happy to hear that you find the app good :) Thanks for the feedback! ### 5/5 — WW alternative *2024-12-26, version 1.9.7* I’m excited to have a tracking alternative that doesn’t push weight loss meds. I’m not against them but it feels manipulative to have ads popping up when I’m trying to focus on lifestyle success. ### 5/5 — Rating for Free Trial *2024-09-23, version 1.9.7* This app offers a free trial of their Pro version if you review their product. I haven’t actually used it yet, so I can’t honestly say how good it is. I do want to try the pro features, such as being able to track flex points each week as well as the regular points I’m allowed. I was able to enter my height, weight, current weight, goal weight, and type of plan I’d like to follow. I’m hoping the SMART plans they offer are very similar to Weight Watchers because at $19.99/year for the pro plan, it’s a much better deal than WW. Here’s to hoping it works for me. I have high expectations that it will. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
