### 2/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-06-14, version 2.2*

I got this a couple of days ago and it worked fine but now I can’t add anything. I’ve restarted, tried to update, waited all day, etc but it just says it’s not available. Was nice while it worked.

### 1/5 — Paid for Pro

*2026-06-02, version 2.1*

So far, I’ve spent $50 and have no access to the app tools. Sent a support request but haven’t heard back

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2026-06-02, version 2.1*

Paid for app can’t access paid features

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2026-06-02, version 2.1*

I used to have this app a long time ago and I remembered it being efficient. However, I downloaded it again today and I subscribed to the yearly plan for 49.99. The app is not letting me use the pro feature and there are many aspects of the app that don’t work. I cannot contact customer support through the app, certain tabs don’t work, and I cannot track my meals. I have tried emailing the support line and have not heard back yet. Now I’m down fifty bucks that I want back because the app doesn’t work. I would not recommend and I hope I can save some people the time and money. If someone from the app sees this I would really like my money back as I have only had the app for a day and it hasn’t worked.

### 1/5 — Bruh

*2026-05-29, version 2.1*

Got the subscription didn’t even work after even reset my phone and uninstall and reinstalled the app 
Was looking for a good app to help but guess not 
I want a refund

### 1/5 — Sudden charges

*2026-05-28, version 2.0*

I had this app when it was free just a few months ago. I stopped using it for a little while, when I came back I can’t do anything literally nothing  until I agree to pay… Unfortunately that’s not within my budget I guess I’ll just have to find something else since I’m really trying to stay on track with my calories.

### 3/5 — Connie

*2026-05-28, version 2.0*

This used to be the greatest free app to use for meal tracking and keeping track of my health. Then one day I couldn’t get into it.  Now  I can get in but it costs and it’s confusing and hard to use. Couldn’t even figure out how to record my meals. Disappointed!!

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE

*2026-05-27, version 2.0*

Horrible. Your app charged me $49.99 for the year, today. And I STILL cannot advance beyond the subscription page

### 1/5 — App is broken - paid but no access

*2026-05-26, version 2.0*

MyPlate does not allow me to access app after paying for pro. Unable todo anything but stare at the screen to subscribe again.

### 1/5 — Paid but not letting me use app

*2026-05-24, version 2.0*

Hello. I payed for this app for $4.99 and expires May 31st. I went ahead and canceled my subscription so it does not renew May 31st. Now it will not let me access the app without paying again.

### 1/5 — Paid for a plan and it won’t let me use it

*2026-05-24, version 2.0*

I’ve emailed them. I have the receipt but it just keeps telling me to pay for a plan. Feels scammy. Can’t get anyone to help

### 3/5 — How?

*2026-05-21, version 2.0*

How can you expect me to write a review when I am setting the app up. That’s not possible to do until I have used it. But I cant’t seem to continue setting the app up unless I do a review.

### 1/5 — Paid the weekly

*2026-05-19, version 2.0*

Downloaded, paid the weekly subscription needed and still the subscription page kept popping up not letting me start using the app.

### 1/5 — No customer service

*2026-05-19, version 2.0*

I made a monthly payment and it is not unlocking and of the counters or controls. Would like my money back

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-05-18, version 2.0*

After subscribing to the app I still was not able to access the benefits I paid for

### 1/5 — Purchased subscription can’t log history

*2026-05-15, version 2.0*

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-24, version 2.3*

This app sucks. How do you even add food to this app? It expects you to do the calculations. Don’t bother with it. It’s a useless scam

### 1/5 — Constructive feedback I suppose

*2026-06-23, version 2.3*

Used to use this app a few years ago. It was great. Now looking at the recent reviews it seems a lot of people are disappointed with it’s current state. Not trying to teach the developers their job but maybe include the ai food detection in the pro version and make the free version what it used to be? So people can pay for the convenience? Anyways I would love to see this app come back because it was a wonderful tool. Cheers!

### 1/5 — Money hungry

*2026-06-19, version 2.3*

This app used to be free and simple! Now it sucks since you have to pay! Just look up what you’re eating on google at track it on your notes at this point!

### 1/5 — Can’t do anything unless you pay

*2026-06-16, version 2.2*

It makes you go through the entire set up process just to find out you can’t even add any info except water intake without paying. This app used to have some great free features with some extra features understandably on a paid tier. Now it’s useless unless you subscribe.

### 1/5 — Subscribed, Doesn’t Work, No response from Support

*2026-06-09, version 2.2*

Paid the yearly subscription but the app keeps asking for payment. I even setup payment for next year. App won’t let me log the macros. Sent message via the support feature, no response. Seems like there is no recourse to get a refund.

### 1/5 — Is it working

*2026-06-06, version 2.2*

It apparently wants me to pay before I’m allowed to learn how to use it🤷🏻‍♂️

### 1/5 — Not MyPlate.gov

*2026-06-06, version 2.2*

It should be illegal to name your app MyPlate, it is very misleading. I don’t know why the govt wouldn’t trademark this to protect Americans.

### 1/5 — Basura

*2026-06-06, version 2.2*

Download is free, completed each step and it led me to a paid subscription. Since I did not pay, the app is useless. This used to be such an amazing app. Now, it’s trash.

### 1/5 — App

*2026-06-05, version 2.2*

How am I supposed to rate the app if I haven’t started using it yet?

### 1/5 — I paid but the app doesnt work

*2026-06-04, version 2.1*

I paid a yearly subscription but the app isnt working and not allowing me to add anything

This app keeps me accountable with my eating habits. The tracking features are simple but powerful, and I’ve already seen results.
