### 5/5 — Please remove podcast autoplay

*2026-08-06, version 4.3.3*

The podcast autoplay stops my music whenever I go to log my food. Very annoying but otherwise a great app

### 3/5 — Quantity button does not work

*2026-08-04, version 4.3.3*

Great app except all of a sudden the quantity button doesn’t work properly for days now and I can’t find where to contact support to address the issue. It’s driving me nuts now and I’m ready to quit. This is after I’ve recommended the app and my family is also on it. Please help me fix this and add a customer support email to your settings.

### 4/5 — Crippled by the UI

*2026-07-15*

UPDATE: Developer restored mY account to previous UI. The app once again has all the expected features of a tracking app plus the parrot AI. 

I loved this up until the latest changed to the UI. It no longer shows how many grams of food are logged; it only shows the macros. It removed my saved recipes and meals. I also can’t copy a previous entry to today. I did use the AI logging but I also relied on having access to verified information. Disappointed after 2 years of use.

**Developer response:** Hi

Please email me so I can sort this for you - scott@parrotpal.com

### 1/5 — Not working right anymore

*2026-07-06, version 4.3.1*

It was working fine until the new update. Now everytime I try putting in a food, it gives me an error message!

### 5/5 — Lose weight

*2026-06-23, version 4.3.0*

Be good to see change

### 1/5 — New Layout

*2026-06-17, version 4.3.0*

The new update is awful, took away lots of good features and being able to copy foods. Will not be renewing because of this!

### 1/5 — K

*2026-06-15*

Such a waste of time, stop making very app paid .

### 1/5 — Beware Free Trial

*2026-06-14, version 4.2.9*

Seems to try the app  you're forced to sign up to a free trial. I tried several times to bypass it and eventually had to commit to the trial. If you don't cancel immediately you're charged £40 after 7 days. Very poor!

Uninstalled 5 mins later...

### 3/5 — Was great

*2026-06-11, version 4.2.9*

Loved it at first, but 6 months in and it seems to be losing its ability to read nutritional labels and barley scans anything. I have done an app update today and it’s wiped all my data, but not my information or targets.

### 3/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-06-10*

The app fails with a lost network connection message and doesn’t log anything.
