I feel like I have less control and customization on what I need to do to get all my macros in. I can no longer customization exactly has much protein, fats, carb, and calories I specifically want. Very disappointing and im going to have to switch to a different tracking app ### 2/5 — Should be so much better *2026-09-21, version 2.0.4* Annoying repetition of photo requirement every damn time you log a meal. There should be a feature that lets you repeat a meal from the past. If one eat a meal over and over (as one often does), we shouldn’t have to go through all the rigamarole every time. Lastly, the units! Calories recorded in oz? Everything else in metric only? Very annoying for US people. ### 2/5 — I downloaded the app but a add keeps on staying on the screen. *2026-09-04, version 2.0.2* Idk ### 1/5 — Garbage *2026-07-23, version 2.0.0* They updated it and completely ruined the app. Takes too long to analyze. No barcode scans anymore. And the manual food entry is dumb you cant just enter it edit your own recipe like you used to. ### 1/5 — :( *2026-07-23, version 2.0.0* The app was fine when i started to use it it was really easy to use. Now they made it more complicated and i cant even use the ai to describe what i had to eat anymore ### 1/5 — Update *2026-07-23, version 2.0.0* I absolutely hate the new update. It sucks. It’s confusing and it takes forever. Please go back. ### 1/5 — Just why *2026-07-23, version 2.0.0* The app was great before the new interface. Now we can no longer save our meals or manually input macros. The app is now just confusing to use. ### 2/5 — What happened to my saved meals? *2026-07-23, version 2.0.0* I like the new update but all my saved data disappeared and I can no longer can labels or barcodes when needed. What happened? ### 4/5 — New update *2026-07-23, version 2.0.0* Overall intuitive , but please re add the feature to save a certain food so we do not have to scan multiple times. Also , issue was found where it would say “unauthorized” when trying to scan something while in the app. ### 1/5 — New Update Sucks *2026-07-22, version 2.0.0* The new update is very glitchy, hard to use, and not intuitive. I’m cancelling my subscription now. ### 1/5 — I HATE the new update *2026-07-22, version 2.0.0* This would’ve had a five star review if they left the last version. My phone updated to the newest version today and I do not understand it and I absolutely despise it. ### 1/5 — Why change? *2026-07-21, version 2.0.0* If I had reviewed this last week I would have given it a 5, however the update this morning not only lost ask my months data but ask my saved favorites and started me over again. Can I go back to old version? ### 1/5 — New update sucks *2026-07-21, version 2.0.0* I don’t have the flexibility I had the previous . I hate this new update. I may move to another calorie app ### 2/5 — New update *2026-07-21, version 2.0.0* New update sucks! All the saved meals all disappeared, can’t adjust your macros without having to completely reset! What a joke! ### 1/5 — Update is broken *2026-07-21, version 2.0.0* The recent update that was automatically installed today is completely broken and lacking nearly all the features that made this app useful. Units are completely wrong and make no sense, precise units for all inputs are necessary, but still are WAY off (5-10x). The new AI photo analysis update may work (haven’t tried it), but I never used that anyway. It’s crazy that a major overhaul update was released without any testing. There’s no way anyone tested this at all. I hope this gets reverted immediately until someone tests the update. I’m unable to log even a single, simple item. The subscription I paid for is effectively wasted until the app is fixed. ### 1/5 — New Update *2026-07-21, version 2.0.0* My app updated to the newest version and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get it to work. I had multiple saved meals programmed in the last version and would really like to have that back. I cannot reach the developer for support so unfortunately I’m having to try this route. I really did enjoy the last version of this app but do not think I can continue with the new update. ### 1/5 — Charged me even after cancelling *2026-07-14, version 1.6.3* I cancelled my free trial through the app but it still charged me and even after submitting a request my refund request was denied. Horrible app, never use again! ### 1/5 — SCAM *2026-07-13, version 1.6.3* I paid 30 dollars for a year; 3 weeks in it kicked me out and is making me pay another 30 for another year! Absolute scam! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-07-11, version 1.6.3* Didn’t even let me in the app and was trying to get me to pay money for a subscription ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-10-05, version 2.0.4* This app is just sloppy ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2026-10-01, version 2.0.4* I used to love this app and it had really great features However, this new update has really overhauled a lot of the features that I used to use. It’s no longer as flexible, or as versatile as it used to be. Honestly,it’s not worth my time, nor my money. I will be canceling the subscription. ### 1/5 — Recent update *2026-09-23, version 2.0.4* The recent update makes this app not has useful for me. I used to love the app. It seemed more accurate. If you forget a meal it's harder to go back and add due to the new update. Sometimes i scan and my meal isn't showing up til the next day. Horribly update. I've wasted my money. ### 1/5 — Free trial *2026-08-30, version 2.0.2* The app is good just very annoying i have to start the free trial to even use ### 1/5 — My review *2026-08-29, version 2.0.2* Install the app and I was answering the questionnaire but nothing was loading ### 1/5 — It sucks now *2026-08-27, version 2.0.2* The new layout n update sucks go back to the old ways where it was easier n more accurate ### 1/5 — Disappointed in new update *2026-08-20, version 2.0.1* Old version of the app was so much better. The different foods and meals already logged in the app were super helpful, and the recipes it used to show were so much better. Thinking about canceling the membership at this point because it is just a completely different app then it used to be. Disappointed ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2026-08-19, version 2.0.1* I used this app for about a little over a year. It helped me track everything by picture or description. Loved it. The new update makes is less user friendly and tracking a meal on it makes it harder . I will stop using this app for how non user friendly it has become. Not worth the money anymore . They took a lot of features out and navigating the UI is not easy anymore ### 1/5 — New version is very bad *2026-07-30, version 2.0.0* I absolutely hate the new app version. It was a lot better before the update. The UX was much more simple and I could just write my meal in simple terms and the AI would figure out the macros. Now, I either need to take pictures (which is not accurate) or enter all my ingredients with all the portions. Please bring back the old features and visuals. ### 1/5 — New change *2026-07-26, version 2.0.0* New change to the app sucks I liked the old way so much easier to use the old version give it back ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5 stars *2026-07-15, version 1.6.3* Helpful ### 5/5 — Good *2026-07-02, version 1.6.3* I’ve been using it for 1 year. Duck you ### 5/5 — Good app *2026-07-01, version 1.6.3* I love this app ### 5/5 — Good *2026-06-23, version 1.6.3* I’ve been using it for 1 year. ### 5/5 — hi *2026-06-18, version 1.6.3* very nice details towards body change and what not. ### 5/5 — Pro cal *2026-06-11, version 1.6.3* Is good ### 5/5 — . *2026-05-22, version 1.6.3* It’s great ### 5/5 — Pro cal *2026-05-15, version 1.6.3* Great info easy to start ### 5/5 — Add *2026-05-12, version 1.6.3* I love the app but I keep getting an ad that comes up and won’t let me into the app I paid for as it’s trying to get me to upgrade! I have been charged twice now an additional 8.00 just to get rid of the ad. How do I get around this????? It’s awful to charge me extra just to get into the app I already paid for! 😡 ### 5/5 — Good *2026-05-12, version 1.6.3* This is good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
