### 2/5 — Stuck

*2026-08-04, version 9.8.7*

Can’t get past “how did u hear about us” closed and open the app , restarted phone , and still can’t get past it ….

### 4/5 — 4/5

*2026-05-27, version 9.8.5*

App is def simple, but to not have ground chicken as a built in option is odd. Free version only lets you add so many custom foods before you have to upgrade. I’d give it 5 if ground chicken was added as a super quick option to select

### 4/5 — Quality of life

*2026-01-31, version 9.7.2*

If you select the option for 3-8 meals and go to select a food, it still shows "breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack" rather than "meal 1, meal 2, meal 3" etc. The calorie counting is a bit off sometimes, but overall I'd say it's a good app. I've been using it for a couple years now and haven't had many problems with it besides what I mentioned

### 3/5 — Glitch with carbs

*2025-12-08, version 9.6.1*

All is great overall I really like it but right now there’s a glitch where it doesn’t subtract the fiber from the overall carbs and it’s not a big deal but just kinda annoying. But overall I enjoy the app and recommend for anyone

### 4/5 — All you’ll ever need

*2025-11-01, version 9.6.1*

I love this app! One small issue though, when I go to add an exercise and but can’t find it, I can’t get out of the menu to make the custom exercise without erasing the progress made on the workout I’m creating

### 3/5 — Something changed

*2025-09-29, version 9.6*

Been using this app for a while now and would’ve rated it 5 stars before. Recently in the past few weeks i’ve noticed the ads a little more. Before they were annoying as all ads are, but now they’re appearing more often and for longer. I get that the bag needs to be secured but the ads are getting a bit much. “Oh just pay for the plus version.” I’m broke. If I can’t find a better app that has a lifetime plus version i’ll pay the price. But as a long term free user, my rating stands.

### 3/5 — Kaydan

*2025-08-19, version 9.6*

It’s a really cool app with amazing features. The only thing is that every time you open the app a bunch of adds pop up, this is for the free version

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-08-08, version 9.6*

The only question I have is the total daily calorie intake does it include the calories the carbs and fats or do I need to add that onto the number I get every day so for example if I’m hitting 1300 calories a day does that number already include the carbs and fats I’ve eaten for the day or do I need to calculate that onto the 1300

### 5/5 — Great app for non- dieting

*2025-08-08, version 9.6*

It’s a simple to use, has everything you need, and doesn’t have so much extra stuff that it makes it overwhelming. Never crashes. And the developers are responsive to feedback.
What I really love is that it doesn’t constantly push weight loss goals on you- unless you go to a specific tab. I use it just for macro tracking to improve how I feel, with a non dieting approach.

### 5/5 — Loving it! Tip below for health integration

*2025-08-05, version 9.6*

I’ve been loving this app. It’s easy to use, useful, and not filled with bloatware. I was trying to integrate my Apple health / workout info and finally found it! 
Menu > Settings > nutrition Settings > Exercise Frequency > choose “import from Apple health”.

### 5/5 — Go off stupid!

*2025-08-03, version 9.6*

Adding fiber to the tracking just made this app a huge W compared to a big W. Nice job with this one devs. 5/5 app. Lost 33 pounds already this year so thank you!!!!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Stuck at how’d you learn about us

*2026-08-20, version 9.8.7*

I can’t get past the referral part of the app. I press skip and it keeps loading I’ve closed the app multiple times and it still doesn’t work

### 1/5 — What happened

*2026-07-08, version 9.8.7*

Used to use this app back in day started using it again. Very disappointing, not gonna pay to win on counting calories. Gonna try different apps.

### 1/5 — Scam!!!!!

*2026-03-28, version 9.8.2*

Don’t fall for the no subscription scam! You need to have a subscription to use several of the features on this app. You can use the barcode scanner for free once then must pay for it.

### 1/5 — Ad glitch

*2026-03-23, version 9.8.2*

I used to use and pay for this app about a year ago, but stopped tracking my calories for maybe 10 months. Wanted to start again so I purchased the monthly membership but I’m unable to use the app at all since I’m stuck in an endless ad loop. I have tried reinstalling the app but it always opens an ad that I cannot close. Extremely frustrated as this wasn’t an issue when I used the app in the past. Making this app completely unusable.

### 1/5 — I can’t even use the app

*2026-02-23, version 9.8.1*

Every time when I signed up and it asked how you hear about us; no matter what option I choose it’s just stuck loading.

### 1/5 — Ads unclosable..

*2026-01-07, version 9.7.2*

I tried restarting the app and it wont let me close the ads!

### 1/5 — I just don’t get it

*2025-12-03, version 9.6.1*

I thought this would help me fine tune mu nutrition but I can’t get started.

### 1/5 — Sam sulec said it was free 🥲

*2025-11-02, version 9.6.1*

I’m sad now

### 1/5 — Unusable due to apparent glitch

*2025-08-22, version 9.6*

When an ad pops up, the ‘x’ button to close the ad seemingly fails to load. I’m met with a never ending loading wheel instead while the ad plays and finishes, even after that, I still can’t click off the ad window. If I shut down the app and reopen it, the cycle immediately repeats. This renders the app completely unusable. My phone’s a bit older, iPhone 12 Pro Max, but it’s fully up to date, as is the app. Tried deleting and reinstalling to no avail.

### 1/5 — Don’t like

*2025-07-13, version 9.5.2*

Too many foods have to be entered manually. I find this app cumbersome

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Best tracker

*2026-07-16, version 9.8.7*

So easy to use. Adding my own foods is simple and intuitive.

### 5/5 — Food tracker

*2026-05-28, version 9.8.5*

The best tracker on earth

### 5/5 — Best tracker

*2026-05-15, version 9.8.5*

Stupid simple and good. Been tracking for 173 days and haven’t had any issues

### 5/5 — Just amazing

*2026-05-02, version 9.8.3*

Extremely accurate ,can make ur own foods ,and just amazing. Easy 5 starts and doesn’t cost money to track food.

### 5/5 — Useful

*2026-04-12, version 9.8.3*

Very cool, helps me keep track easily, tried others but this one is more user friendly imo. Also the buy option is a plus, I hate subscriptions, not a waste of money for me. I never write reviews but came here to write one, goes without saying…

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-02-11, version 9.8*

Nice effective app

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-01-05, version 9.7.2*

Simple, effective.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-11-17, version 9.6.1*

Has it quirks, but it’s helpful and a better deal doing a one off payment for premium service then paying a monthly subscription plus I think it does better then some of the AI APPS

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-10-30, version 9.6.1*

I love that when you track it will tell you what you can have and not have at the bottom! Makes it so easy. 
But put it in BEFORE you eat it so you’re not over.

### 5/5 — My use

*2025-09-24, version 9.6*

I’ve used this app for so long and it has benefited me so much. It’s literally the best calorie tracking app ever.
