### 1/5 — incredibly glitchy

*2025-06-19*

I really wish they would fix basic functions of this app. like for instace: this just logged me out of my account and now I can’t get in… it also changes regularly my quantities of food without me asking (2 to 1.9)… changing to something else.

### 1/5 — It Changed

*2025-03-11, version 1.0.5*

This app used to be the greatest, nothing hidden behind paywalls other than removing ads. now, the download is free but the program isn’t. Unusable anymore. How about you make the app paid from the start?

### 1/5 — Scarm

*2025-01-23, version 1.0.5*

I choice the 9:99$ monthly and they charged me 40$ . I am very confused!!!??!!

### 1/5 — Soo bad

*2025-01-21*

This app is horrible. It was not worth $9.99 and honestly I wouldn’t use it if it were free. None of the calculations are accurate, I have to manually enter everything, if I take a picture of something, it isn’t calculated right. There’s so many bugs with the app and delays, it’d be faster for me to track everything by hand in a notebook. Going back to my fitness pal.

### 2/5 — Glitchy App

*2025-06-19, version 1.0.5*

Overall, I had really liked the app…when it actually worked. It had a lot of glitches with regular system crashes. Given its $9.99/month subscription, I would have thought it would work a bit better. There is no ability to contact a customer service representative to help you troubleshoot the glitches. Finally, when it locked me out of my account, I cancelled my subscription since there was no point in paying for something I could not use. If the app had a human in the loop for contact, more explanation of what the tiered plans would provide, and overall, better bug fixes, I would have been happy to keep using it. These issues, however, made it unusable, hence the two star rating.

### 3/5 — not working but good working

*2025-03-21*

i was using the app for around a day or two but it suddenly stopped working for some reason, whenever i would hit login it wouldn’t work, but when the app did work it was the best calorie app out.

### 3/5 — Love it but it stopped working

*2025-03-20*

Was working fine but it randomly logged me out and won’t let me make a new account or log back into to it

### 3/5 — more variety ig

*2025-02-26*

I like the app but I wish they'd have some pre saved foods from popular brands already on there so that I wouldn't have to input my own stats every time

### 3/5 — P

*2025-02-01*

I like the app so far. But one thing that I’d like to say is that there should be an option to lose fat, not pounds. For skinny people that just have a bit of fat they’d like to lose. Hope this makes sense

### 3/5 — I love it

*2025-01-30, version 1.0.5*

Really a wonderful app, so simple and easy to add in your calories. 
Although, it’s quite glitchy at the moment, when switching between days it takes very long for the information to load, and sometimes it adds calories to the day from a previous day but then disappears, it’s a little frustrating, please fix it because I love this app!

### 5/5 — Sano Works

*2024-10-29*

Sano is the best app I have fond for tracking calories, losing weight and most importantly keeping the weight off. Friends and colleagues ask why am I taking pictures of my food. I explain that I am tracking calories with one click of a button. Thanks Sano!

### 5/5 — I weighed 250 Lbs Now I am 170

Sano is goated fr. Due to stress I weighed 250 lbs but now I can track my calories and am a lean 170. Thank you Arthur and thank you Sano.

### 4/5 — 4/5

### 4/5 — Excellent! But keeps glitching
