### 3/5 — Seems good so far

*2026-04-20, version 18.1.1*

Just started. I’m all set to figure this out. I have faith in all the Fabulous apps!

### 4/5 — 4 so far

*2026-04-13, version 18.1.1*

I have a week into the app. I am satisfied with my progress. I enjoy the wonderful artwork in the app. It makes it a pleasure to use daily.

### 2/5 — Promising but not ready for use

*2026-04-09*

The app is a good start, and the basis of Fabulous is solid. Shape, however is rather an early beta version than a final product for real users. It is buggy, cumbersome, lacks features, the AI integration is entirely useless, and the app is clearly not well thought through at this point.

Often, form select options representing real life nutrition or circumstances are missing for things like moods, protein sources or high fiber foods. Pre and post meal questionnaires are mashed together into one dialog. Some meal log categories should be multi-select but you can only select one. The coaching part feels half baked and sloppy (texts are meh, AI voice isn’t amazing, full series just auto play all the way through, no bookmarks/favs), the social features are more annoying than useful. The app intro asks questions (like dietary restrictions) which then have no influence at all on the app. As a vegan, I am constantly asked about meat, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy etc., although the app knows I don’t eat any of that. It doesn’t even know any vegan protein sources beside legumes.

But hey, it’s promising! CBT-style nutrition improvement with proven habit formation mechanics, intermittent fasting, inspiration, education, awareness and reminders is something that can really work! I’m trying to use the app as if it was already good. Luckily I don’t pay for it, since I got a subscription via my sports membership. Would I pay for it? No, not at the current state. The team has a lot of work to do.

To the decision makers and implementers: Please return to your roots! Fabulous, in its pre-public testing phase, was pure, focused and very effective. The current broadening into many apps (Fab, Shape, Elixir, ADHD, Lum, and the mini apps) to make quick money costs oh so much quality, and it would be sad if the trend continued. Please come back to the core and create amazing, deeply touching, empowering and transformative software.

**Developer response:** We appreciate your detailed feedback on the app. We understand your concerns and are continuously working on improvements. Your insights about features and usability are valuable to us as we aim to enhance the experience. Thank you for your patience and support. The Fabulous Member Care team.

### 5/5 — Great so far

*2026-03-02, version 18.0.1*

So far so good

### 5/5 — Estou amando

Gostei muito do app, poderia ter a versão em português

### 5/5 — Love these apps

*2026-02-15, version 17.0.1*

I love the whole family of Fabulous apps. Shape helps me stay on track of my weight, what I’m eating and how to track what I’m doing.

### 5/5 — Love this !

*2026-01-30, version 17.0.1*

So beautiful and honestly I can never get myself to follow through anything . But this app has my attention and I feel happy using it and I feel better . A lot better

### 5/5 — Continually Excited

*2026-01-23, version 17.0.1*

I started using the Fabulous app about 3 months ago and I really enjoy! It has become a  part of my day. I just decided to try the Shape Healthy Eating Journal and I LOVE how they overlap no matter you are in your “journey.” The journal ties right in and therefore reinforces the habits over in the Fabulous app.

### 3/5 — Not good for weight struggle history

*2025-12-23, version 17.0.1*

Mindfulness seems like a great way to eat healthier especially with a history of disordered eating. The app focuses on daily weigh-in though, which is a pretty toxic pattern for people who have historically hated the number on the scale. I also had poor experiences with customer support when trying to get an account set up and I still cannot log in the way the help pages tell me to. Just not really the right vibe for me AND not feeling actually valued and supported by “Fabulous” family of apps.

### 2/5 — Lost

*2025-12-11, version 16.0.1*

I do not know where we are, where we have been nor where we are going. I’m getting confused.

### 5/5 — Great Addition to the Fabulous app family!

*2025-12-10, version 16.0.1*

Enjoying the format of the food tracker! Easy to use nice layout with familiar friendly guidance from my positive community!! 🫶🏻🤩😎🤓💜

### 3/5 — Eating journal

*2025-11-18, version 15.0.1*

I would like suggestions for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

### 5/5 — Wow stellar concept

*2025-10-23, version 14.0.1*

Ideal execution simple follow thru easy to stick to amen very worth weight in gold

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-10-02, version 14.0.1*

I’ve tried other weight loss/healthy eating apps and they’re all the same. This one is different. It’s very encouraging and helpful, taking you deeper into the ‘why’s’ of your eating. If you want to conquer weight control or just eat healthier, this is the app for you.

### 5/5 — Best support system ever for eating healthy!

*2025-09-17, version 13.2.1*

Really balances my thinking and actions about health. Reframes how I approached food and it’s relationship to my body

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Frandulent

*2026-06-20, version 21.0.1*

I signed up for Fabulous app and then couldn’t afford the 39.99. For some reason the app didn’t have a place for me to cancel. Some kind of error within my account. So the app declined a refund. I said okay there’s nothing I can do but stop charging me moving forward. Now months later, I have another fraudulent charge and I no longer even use the app. How is this helpful? My daughter’s birthday is tomorrow and my bank is saying I can’t have access to my card because they have to send a new one at this point. That will take a week. How is that helpful? How is this contributing to my wellbeing or mental health. This app used to be upstanding but now it’s just fraudulent. What you are doing is disgusting. With all life stressors, people don’t need another one. I suggest no one uses this app.

### 1/5 — WARNING! SCAM

*2026-04-10, version 18.1.1*

This app deliberately hides its subscription management options and the app renewed out of no where a year after my “free” trial AFTER I’d cancelled it 52 weeks earlier!  It is NOT visible with your normal app subscriptions and apparently cancellation within the app is not honored. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.

### 1/5 — Predatory billing practices

*2026-04-07, version 18.1.1*

I still have not been able to unsubscribe. It has been months. You can’t call and messaging them has had no answer for many people. I keep getting charged monthly.  I cannot see them pop up on my app subscriptions in my phone and on the website there is no option to unsubscribe. You can cancel your account, but that will continue charging. I followed all the instructions online and still cannot unsubscribe.

### 1/5 — Button “Claim Free Trial” doesn’t lead to free trial

*2025-12-16, version 16.0.1*

There is a huge long questionnaire and then the app is nothing but a pop up that says claim free trial and then pay what you want - with the lowest option not being free. You can’t even see the UI without signing up for a paid trial that results in an expensive annual subscription. At this point I’m not even doing a trial based on other reviews and the experience. I don’t know why there is a pop up button that says free trial with no way to get an actual free trial

### 1/5 — Keine Erinnerung das Probezeit endet

*2025-12-06*

Keine Erinnerung das Probezeit endet, ich wusste nichtmal das ich eine Mitgliedschaft abgeschlossen habe. Scam!

**Developer response:** Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass Sie diese Erfahrung gemacht haben. Informationen zu unseren Verlängerungsrichtlinien finden Sie in unserem Hilfe-Center unter help.thefabulous.co. Wir hoffen, dass Sie dort hilfreiche Informationen finden. Das Fabulous Member Care Team.

### 1/5 — Set up is too long. The paywall

*2025-08-15, version 13.1.1*

Wasted 10 minutes of my day setting this up and I can’t even see what the app looks like without committing to a paid plan.

### 1/5 — Scam!!!

*2025-06-12, version 11.1.1*

Without even signing up for premium they charge you 50$?!???   Do not, I repeat do not download and sign in

### 1/5 — Crashes, crashes, crashes

*2025-05-02, version 11.0.1*

This app needs a CTO that uses the apps every single day for 3 months straight and holds a focus group for 3 hours a day with 7 new, 7 active and 7 long term users to stop the time consuming need to repeat click screens just to progress forward through sections.  It’s redundant and a waste of valuable personal time that’s better directed into the focused activities to create habits, etc, instead.

Also, the Shape app crashes repeatedly, doesn’t save account data, even with Premium paid subscription.

The ads for the same app that one has already purchased should not be repeatedly taking up visual space on the opening pages repeatedly daily.  Ugh.

Also, the sales pitches to buy, subscribe, buy, subscribe are disconnected and not relevant to customers who already purchased.

Then the 7 day free trial, no 30 day! free trial add are spastically showing up in emails.

If one clicks to backtrack and get the 30 day free trial ALL the data entry previously entered into the app are not transferred into the 30 day free use of the app.

So frustrating and annoying, that the app serves the opposite purpose of its customer mission statements.

### 1/5 — Can’t cancel without giving email

*2025-04-16, version 10.2.1*

I signed up with my Apple account and hid my email, now their portal won’t let me log in to cancel. It just refreshes the page. There are no recipes either this is just a food logging app with fasting coaching. They’ve ignored my requests to cancel and get a refund because it automatically charged me after the trial (during which I’d requested the cancellation)

### 1/5 — Dodgy

*2025-04-08, version 10.2.1*

Read the one star reviews. I downloaded this after briefly using the Fabulous app (after following an in-app link) but I do not think I agreed to the subscription at all. Have been charged £93.98 for an app I have never used and never wanted to subscribe to - and absolutely no remorse or willingness to refund me for an app I have literally never used! Absolutely outrageous

### 5/5 — I love the fabulous app! Let me meet your brother Shape ;)

*2026-08-01, version 22.1.1*

I love the fabulous app and I think I’m falling in love again with shape!!!

### 5/5 — A different approach

*2026-07-29, version 22.1.1*

Shape does not approach weight loss as many weight loss applications due it doesn’t have the calorie counting in the detailed everything. It’s a matter of take a picture of what you ate right down what you ate Journal what you ate, but it’s not it does have macro breakdown so it is a different type of accountability as far as eating and weight loss goes

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-06-14, version 20.1.1*

Only been using it for a day but I can tell it’s going to work

### 5/5 — So easy it’s fun

*2026-06-03, version 20.0.1*

Starts you with a dimple and joyful approach to eating and nutrition.

### 5/5 — Love love love this app

*2026-05-14, version 19.0.1*

This app is amazing so far! I know I am only into it on day two but it lays everything out so easy and all the other information added in is bonus in helping me succeed!

### 5/5 — Tasks made simple

*2026-04-29, version 19.0.1*

Tasks are easy to follow, guidelines are helpful and concise. It helps me manage my day to day and stops me slumping into depression as it has many helpful guides of what how and when to do them. I especially like the meditation coaching and guidance which I have struggled with in the past. I will continue to do this even after I have fulfilled my daily habits as a ritual to help me stay on track. Fully recommended if you struggle with tasks and completion of things and sticking with habits as I do…well, did :)

### 5/5 — Great Addition to the Fabulous app family!

*2026-03-30, version 18.1.1*

Enjoying the format of the food tracker! Easy to use nice layout with familiar friendly guidance from my positive community!! 🫶🏻🤩😎🤓💜

### 5/5 — Great for healthy goal setting

*2026-03-22, version 18.1.1*

This app is amazingly helpful and easy to use for meeting your target needs. I enjoy the colorful graphics and design of this interactive and engaging wellness app.  I especially love the daily food tracker with pics of my food log and coaching videos, that offer good tips and advice for a more healthy diet and lifestyle.  I also benefit from the four key habits that allow for daily awareness, food, exercise, and weight checks.

### 5/5 — Everything top notch

*2026-03-21, version 18.0.1*

I've never been so organized and optimistic about my day. It really is easy to use.

### 5/5 — Easy and cute

*2026-03-10, version 18.0.1*

Cute app- makes it easy- I use another app to log actual food for more info like protein fat ect. Could definitely use some more options on the log- hard to account for more than one item of each category and there are few choices to pick from.
