### 2/5 — Terrible

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Not user friendly, horrible customer service.

### 4/5 — Straight forward

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

I suppose you do more exact values (Oz/grams) to better define your intake…. The yoga portion I feel is useless.

### 4/5 — Initial Experience

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

I have been using Simple for about 1 month. Here are my thoughts about it:
1) I like the information it provides that help me modify my behavior and my diet.
2) The AI coach really doesn’t seem overly friendly. the answers are decent but somewhat mechanical. It seems to latch on to a couple things that I have eaten and includes them in many interactions. 
3) The Blinky thing doesn’t work for me. I pretty much ignore it. 

The bottom line is that with the apps help I am modifying my behavior and eating habits. I am also dropping a few undesired pounds. I will continue on with the program and see where it takes me.

### 4/5 — Excellent weight loss tool

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Overall helpful but No alternative exercises for injured joints

### 3/5 — Flawed

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Food logging is incredibly flawed, and I find the alerts on the Home Screen really annoying. Will not be renewing

### 4/5 — Fun

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Its nice to have a coaching device to help with check ins and get cheered on.

### 4/5 — Love it! But….

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

I wish it would link to my other health apps like pacer and apple health… my steps aren’t counted…

### 4/5 — Good overall

*2026-08-27, version 8.60.0*

I like this app but I don’t love it. It’s a bit too “cutesy “ for me but I understand why many would love it.  A few things I still can’t figure out like how to log steps for the day.  In addition, I have been pretty descriptive on my food intake but it seems most of the time the AI estimated fewer calories than I’m sure the meal actually was.

### 4/5 — Simple really is simple

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

This app helps me stay accountable for my meals and snacks, as well as beverages choices. I used to binge at night, now I make a safe selection for a small snack, then at a set time start my fast. No more raiding the cupboards.  It provides tailored exercise plans, and has extras you can do, such as wall Pilates and stretching. Ir will also sync with iPhone Health app for step counter. I prepaid for 3 months to give it a fair trial. Weight is going down and I’m making better meal choices.

### 2/5 — App

*2026-08-27, version 8.60.0*

This app is way too expensive! I bet this review is never seen by another live person. How much you wanna bet?

### 4/5 — Review

*2026-08-26, version 8.60.0*

This program has been good for support and tracking food and water.  I like the exercises, that can be done in 10 minutes. The library of other exercise is also helpful. The communication in the team is always good for encouragement, and giving feedback as well.

### 3/5 — Avo is an airhead at times

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

The plus side is, I can type in my numbers and keep track of it. The minus, Avo even though has the info still sometimes gives you misinformed guidance and may have negative impact on the consumer because we come sometimes to Avo cuz we don’t want to talk to a human but then we argue with AI and the frustration might mentally lead to over stimulated , disappointment and  emotional eating.. just saying I e had my share of discussions with AVO even though I know it’s AI and that’s how it makes me feel at times.

### 4/5 — Helpful but need some work

*2026-08-26, version 8.60.0*

I really enjoy this app and it has been very helpful having Avo as a coach and Blinky definitely keeps me accountable. The moment Blinky turns yellow I’m doing everything I can to get them back in the green. That being said the meal logging definitely needs a lot of work. It’s very frustrating how inaccurately it likes food. It wouldn’t be as big of an issue if you could manually override things calories or individual nutrient. My protein is always under because of incorrect login and my sodium. I worry about because I know that that’s not being calculated accurate and I’m trying to watch that closely. all around it’s a good app and I have lost some weight. But it would be a stellar app if they would fix those issues.

### 2/5 — Good but not great

*2026-08-26, version 8.60.0*

This app is good but not great. Good functions and intentions, with a wholistic approach, but seems to lack on accuracy. For tracking food, you can’t track ahead of time (like if packing lunch for the next day), and the nutrition facts aren’t accurate. It includes weight loss habits like intermittent fasting, weighing in frequently, water consumption, exercise. Good to have all in one place but nutrition part is seriously lacking.

### 5/5 — Best App Ever

*2026-08-26, version 8.60.0*

I would recommend this to every one it keeps u focus and responsible to keep on track

### 5/5 — 1st day

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

It’s a very simple but challenging work out. At 70 years old, I still lift weights but needed something for flexibility. This seems like it.

### 5/5 — Pleased with experience

*2026-08-26, version 8.60.0*

A gentler, positive way to lose weight at your own pace.  Encouragement with visuals .  Ability to discuss how things are going with a coach who also makes helpful suggestions.  Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — On the path to healthy living

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

I am enjoying using the app because it holds me accountable with food and drink choices.

### 2/5 — Terry

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

Over all the app is good if you aren’t in any shape.  A little too lite for me most days

### 1/5 — Cancellation

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

I have tried to cancel my subscription, but when I called and was next in line after waiting 15 minutes, I received a message saying there was no one available to help me I have been paying $44 a month for a service I do not use at all. When I tried to cancel on the site, it just gives me articles. This is very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Cancelled and still trying to charge

*2026-08-25, version 8.60.0*

I canceled this app and they are still trying to charge me!

### 1/5 — Cuidado, cobrança indevida

*2026-08-19, version 8.60.0*

I purchased for trial, and I’m unable to use it

### 1/5 — Horrível

*2026-08-18*

Na configuração aparece a opção de idioma, mas todo o App as instruções são em inglês. Até aí, ok. Na compra do App apareceu a primeira opção promocional só que no meu cartão apareceram duas compras. Tentei cancelar o plano no App e aí vem as dificuldades. Não consigo cancelar.

### 1/5 — Movement tracking

*2026-08-15, version 8.59.0*

Even though I recorded 156 minutes of movement on this app, when i weighed in this morning and my weight was up 1.2 pounds, this app said it might be because my movement dipped to 19 minutes. Get you act together!  How is this app to be taken seriously if it can’t read its own data?  Fix it!

Frustrated user

### 1/5 — Fraud

*2026-08-15, version 8.59.0*

This plan didn’t work for me.  I tried for 6 weeks, faithfully, doing the exercises every day.  I cancelled the subscription in April.  In August, they charged me again.  It was  dry difficult to get into contact with support.  I was told I never cancelled my account.  Okay, then why did I have to reactivate my plan when I had to log in when to see why I was being charged?  They issued the refund but it was a hassle and they caused me a lot of irritation trying to get in touch with someone other than a chat bot

### 1/5 — Scam do not sign up!

*2026-08-15, version 8.59.0*

Scam do not sign up , automatic renewal and contain request to sign up to premium subscription.

### 1/5 — Do NOT GET

*2026-08-15, version 8.59.0*

Do not like, I cancelled my free trial and it still has taken $129 out of my account but I deleted the app once I stopped my free trial

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2026-08-14, version 8.59.0*

I hate to be so negative but the food database is totally inaccurate and it’s impossible to edit entries in any easy way to make your food log reflect what you actually ate. I’ve been using other apps for years and I quit this one after one day, that’s how bad it is. There are much better options out there, many of them free.

### 5/5 — Beginner

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Good start

### 5/5 — Simple

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Simple seems to be helping m to stay focused on what I am eating. At first it was anything but Simple to me but I am getting better at logging. Try not to get overwhelmed with everything you have to log and do the best you can.

### 5/5 — Cherri

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Works

### 5/5 — Worth the wait

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

Love it. Is easy to follow and do.

### 5/5 — My experience

*2026-08-27, version 8.61.0*

I love this app, it keeps me on top of meals, exercise, water intake as well as my mood.  Im forever a client because im in no rush to lose pounds but as i gradually lose and follow my program im on the path to success!!

### 5/5 — Program Lives up to its Name

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

Great workout; easy and effective moves first thing in day before breakfast

### 5/5 — The Best

*2026-08-26, version 8.60.0*

Love this app. It teaches you how to eat to promote weight loss and gives you daily movement recommendations. One of the most successful plans I have tried. Keeps you accountable and on track.

### 5/5 — Easy and worthwhile

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

Love this app! It keeps me motivated and accountable

### 5/5 — Simple, Encouraging, and helps me stay Consistent

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

I’ve been really enjoying the simplicity of the Simple app so far. It makes it easy for me to stay consistent with checking in with myself and documenting my progress.
I also find the chat feature really inspiring. It reminds me of the hard work I’m putting in to stay on top of healthy choices with my nutrition, hydration, and exercise. I especially appreciate the daily check-ins about how I’m feeling, because I’ve honestly been feeling pretty depleted of energy and unwell lately.

And as an added bonus, I’ve lost 6 lbs in the last 3 weeks! Seeing that progress has been really encouraging and motivating.
One feature I’d love to see added is the ability to leave a small comment when checking in about how I’m feeling. Sometimes I’m experiencing other symptoms or things that aren’t captured by the available options, and without that additional context, the app may not understand why I’m unable to meet certain goals on a particular day.
Overall, I really appreciate how simple and encouraging the app is. It’s helping me stay more mindful and consistent with taking care of myself, and I’m excited to continue using it and seeing where this journey takes me!

### 5/5 — Accountability

*2026-08-26, version 8.61.0*

This app helps you be accountable for what you eat and how you move. Love it.
