### 4/5 — Weight loss journey

*2026-06-01, version 6.56.6*

Have started eating more healthily and doing more exercise Hardly eat any bread or potatoes and feel much better for it xx

### 2/5 — Not perfect

*2025-11-21, version 6.43.3*

The app seems to stop syncing frequently with Apple Health to record steps. Links within the App to YouTube videos also don’t work sometimes.  Good in principle but frustrating when it doesn’t sync.  When the sync is not working even entering manual records for steps gets over written with incorrect data.  Good when it’s working as it does have useful info so hopefully the bugs will be sorted out.

### 3/5 — Been real good &

*2025-10-28, version 6.42.18*

Steps wouldn’t sync after latest DAILY updates

### 5/5 — Gary

*2025-09-10, version 6.40.8*

Having been advised by the hospital about this site I decided to give it a go. Over the years I have tried various diets none of which have worked. I was originally 157kg when I started and set myself a target of 116kg. It has took some time, almost 3 years but over that time my weight has steadily dropped. I know weight 114.3kg a total loss of 42.7kg. Yes I have gone up from time to time and I have hit the plateau stage a few times but stick at it and it works. 100% recommend.

### 4/5 — Mr

*2025-06-02, version 6.36.0*

Since I joined early January, it has helped me lose 4.8kg of weight, my waistline is completely gone. All due to second Nature and its marvellous health coaches, plus the vibrant different communities, that motivate you. I will definitely recommend anyone to SN, which i have already.

### 4/5 — Works but keep at it

*2025-05-02, version 6.36.0*

I was referred to SN by my Dr as I had been diagnosed as pre diabetic. I am not now following the weight loss and eating better programme.

### 5/5 — Healthier in body and mind

*2025-05-01*

I’ve only been a part of this for a month but the change is immense.  I never drank water if I could help it before I started but this morning the only thing I could think that I wanted was a drink of water.  My weight is coming down at a sensible rate so I’ve lost 5lb this month with no real effort. 
Usually I’d have been overeating as my brother has who has now been diagnosed with dementia got lost on Bank holiday Monday and I’m sorting it all out but because of the support not just in body but in mind, I am coping very well.
The thing about Second Nature is it’s just sensible eating - no calorie counting and no ‘sins’ etc - it’s just a really good, kind, sensible way of giving support.  Try it … I did and I was hooked within. 24 hours.

### 5/5 — Making best versions of yourself

*2025-04-10, version 6.35.0*

Life along way, pick up unwanted, unworkable habits.
Makes one aware of them 
With workable habits, replace them 
Journal to be the best version of oneself 
Thanks

### 2/5 — I was hopeful about this but disappointed so far

*2025-03-24, version 6.34.3*

I’m sure this is useful for people who have always eaten lots of processed food and fry ups but if not, it’s both frustrating and not very useful. The advice is pretty shallow and predictable. I’m sure there is a reason the NHS is paying for this but at the moment I’m not sure what that is. Some nice recipes though.

### 5/5 — iPhone

*2025-03-22, version 6.34.3*

Brilliant app sorry it was my phone large text not the app

### 5/5 — Second Nature changed my life

*2025-02-10, version 6.33.3*

Since starting the Second Nature programme over a year ago I have lost three stone in weight and have become a healthier happier person. Second Nature has helped me review nutrition, sleep, exercise and mindfulness and the part they play in helping me maintain a healthier way of doing things.

### 5/5 — Great 12 months

*2025-01-27, version 6.33.2*

Just done 12 months on the journey for a second time. The coach and support have been fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone.

### 5/5 — Helped me lose weight

*2024-12-14, version 6.31.0*

Support given through coach if needed but also through group chats. Suggestions for other health related topics and advice given through the program chosen. Time consuming at first but easier as time goes on. Would recommend.

### 1/5 — Susan Glegg

*2026-03-16, version 6.48.0*

Too complicated to navigate

### 1/5 — Download app? Excuse me?

*2026-01-18, version 6.46.3*

It’s a set of scales… why on earth do I NEED an app, an account, access to my details, my blood, my first borns soul to use them and change the settings? 
Get a grip.

Can’t even login anonymously and change the settings then delete the stupid app; it just says there’s no account with this email — yea well done, I’m literally trying to make one. 

Good job I got these for free from a relative… who got them from her doctor for a medical issue… they too found them infuriating, hence why I now have some scales that read in pounds only, because reasons? 

I’m never going to look at this again, even if I get a developer response. If you’re the developer and I’m missing an obvious point here then that’s a product issue, not a consumer one; you should probability address that.

### 1/5 — Fake app

*2026-01-01, version 6.46.3*

App don’t work you need a account which you cannot set up scale tells you to down load app with doesn’t let you make an account only lets you log in

### 1/5 — Feels like AI Trash

*2025-12-18, version 6.46.0*

Signed up and regretted it absolutely useless can find everything online or simple use AI like they seem to be using.

### 1/5 — NHS think again about supporting this app.

*2025-11-24, version 6.44.0*

Offered this through the NHS.  Four weeks in and I’ve now deleted it.  No one chatting in the group at all, most of the group not even sharing their weight journey, no health coach to speak to.  I’ve lost weight but this had nothing to do with the app.  I can track my weight and steps through Apple Health.  I’m really appalled that the NHS is spending MY tax money on this rubbish.

### 1/5 — CB

*2025-11-19, version 6.43.3*

Awful App. Nightmare setting up. Pain to try and access App.

### 1/5 — Paul Fletcher

*2025-04-03, version 6.34.3*

Don’t really have a weight issue/eating problem? Just wondering how this will work for me?

### 1/5 — Unsupportive

*2023-08-28, version 6.18.10*

Word of advice - don’t tell them if you have issues with emotional eating - I got booted off the app and accused of having an eating disorder! A shame as I followed the plan for a few days and it was working for me. I emailed to try and discuss my account being blocked but just got copy pasted responses.

### 1/5 — Cannot get past the login screen

*2023-07-06, version 6.18.3*

Looks like Google login does not work. I get the email notification saying I’ve logged in but it’s just stuck on the accept and continue pop up.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work…

*2022-07-15*

Downloaded 3 times the app and each time it was impossible to submit my answers and move to the next step (access the app) because of a message error

### 5/5 — Great, easy to use and it’s already WORKING for me!!!

*2026-06-12*

After a pre-diabetic blood result I opted to use Second Nature to support the changes I want to make to get back in a healthy range. First, it’s really easy and quick to use. Short check-in every day (when I can) to read or listen to solid advice backed by medical science and nutritional expertise. 
With only small changes, without any whiff of awful grey, drab diets. I have a nutritionist on hand to answer any questions and get encouragement - so crucial for staying the course. You have to be open to it though, and engage. 
So many of us are in the same boat and just want to be healthier but we could never do it ‘alone’. 
I received a set of Bluetooth scales that automatically updates my weight. Been on Second Nature programme for 4 weeks and so far lost about a pound or two a week with literally NO effort other than to listen to advice and give it a go. Well done to the small but mighty team at Second Nature

### 5/5 — Great educational tool

*2026-06-08*

This programme of habit change was initially difficult, particularly around planning, preparing and cooking some of the meals. However, once I got into it I found it easy. I was able to adapt recipes with ingredients I had and not worry if I was missing a herb or particular ingredient. 
The programme has taught me so much about different ways to look after yourself physically and mentally. 
The changing of your habits is the prize, any weight loss is a bonus. 
I would highly recommend this programme.

### 5/5 — Great and holistic program

*2026-04-21, version 6.53.0*

I was diagnosed as pre- diabetic 2 years ago and recommended this program by my GP. Whilst I did not follow it 100%- I actually did not wish to lose weight, although I did, so had to balance my intake of carbs a bit. However, it drastically changed my eating habits re sweet things etc, so I am now in the "green zone" as far as the pre-diabetes is concerned. No mire craving that afternoon biscuit ...Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Second Nature Supportive

*2026-04-06, version 6.51.0*

The Second Nature program and app are are great way to feel supported and to reach your goals. It provides a broad range of tools to create habits, reduce weight and all whilst feeling you are being supported. Well worth getting involved with Second Nature.

### 5/5 — Very good but frustrating

*2026-03-27, version 6.49.0*

I would have given 5 stars but for the irritating connection between Apple health and the tracking function. The steps work OK but OMIG the sleep tracker drives me mad! It double counts my sleep hours no matter what I do. I ve tried disconnecting sleep sync, erasing errors, adding manually but whatever I do it immediately reinstates weeks of double counting. I know it’s only one part but it’s ruining my experience

### 5/5 — Review of Second Nature

*2026-02-28, version 6.48.0*

Superb course - well constructed and professionally delivered by experienced health and nutrition experts

### 5/5 — An app that actually works!!

*2026-02-20*

I signed up to this program nearly three weeks ago. I love the fact that when I’m not up to exercising I can do them when I’m able,  so not missing out as I did when I went to classes. Love the fact that when even reading is an effort I can listen to articles instead, so interesting. Group chat - no pressure and great to hear new ideas from others. On the whole fantastic would highly recommend this app ( Second Nature).

### 5/5 — Superb app

*2025-11-24, version 6.44.0*

I’m grateful for this app, which addresses weight loss and oh! so much more. A truly holistic, supportive, blame free and downright sensible approach. The science is there, backing it all up in neatly packaged, understandable bite-sized pieces. Frankly, it’s a no-brainer, if you want to improve your life. Do it.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-11-21, version 6.43.3*

Grateful for the nhs providing this support, we’ve got a great health coach and the food diary & weight loss tracker is helpful with keeping me on track!

### 5/5 — Worth staying with!

*2025-09-23, version 6.42.0*

This program has surprised me- after initial doubts I now see how much knowledge has been gained from it and I am grateful to the NHS fir providing this tool. I wish many more patients were able to access it- seems there still are GPs who have not heard of it!
