Excelent! Simple and effective.
This app makes tracking meals so easy. It is accurate, you can set your country for the food database. The podcasts on it are actually very smart and helpful. I have been tracking calories off and on 30 years and this is giving me so much freedom. My Apple account had an issue so I contacted the Parrot Pal developer, they came back with step by step instructions on how to fix the issue and get the app working again. No other developer did that. 100% recommend this app!

Scam
I’d written a really long review previously but I think the developer has deleted it, which speaks volumes to me. This app is a scam, don’t do it
Focusing On Fitness & Protein
So Far 😎 So Good
So close to 5 stars!
I really want to give this app five stars and if all you care about are calories and a couple of very basic macros like protein then it’s a five star app. For me, and for a ton of people, what would elevate this, and quite easily, would be to allow us to track sodium on this app. It’s so close to perfect, but this obvious and persistent flaw remains over years of requests to the developer.

In app purchases not working
Purchased yearly subscription. It is not working. Apple won’t refund my purchase.
Please remove podcast autoplay
The podcast autoplay stops my music whenever I go to log my food. Very annoying but otherwise a great app
Quantity button does not work
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.

Crippled by the UI
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.

Hi Please email me so I can sort this for you - scott@parrotpal.com
Not working right anymore
It was working fine until the new update. Now everytime I try putting in a food, it gives me an error message!
Lose weight
Be good to see change
New Layout
The new update is awful, took away lots of good features and being able to copy foods. Will not be renewing because of this!
K
Such a waste of time, stop making very app paid .
Beware Free Trial
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!

Was great
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.
Doesn’t work
The app fails with a lost network connection message and doesn’t log anything.
Lacklustre UI, inaccurate by nature, unresponsive support
Great concept for app but falls short on a number of fronts. Unintuitive UI. No dark mode (hello 2015). Unresponsive support. Better options out there, notably MacroFactor and LoseIt
Jesus Christ, half an hour of questioning to then be told it’s £40 quid a year
No thank, how about not wasting peoples time, I am not paying 40 quid a year to track calories, and no body should, just go back to my fitness pal and educate your self on food, track for free, these people trying to fleece people is ridiculous, £40 lol
Nice tracker
I’ve enjoyed this app for months and it already helped me to lose 6kg in very gentle and thoughtful way. But recently something went wrong and now 2/3 of the food I log is logged with 0 calories and I have to retry several times.
Weight lose
Hoping to get to my goal and stop Manjaro
Review
I’ve used parrot pal in the past and am looking forward to using it again
