Pathetic
Paying $250/wk for meals and I’m still required $12.99/mo to be able to see and track my macros?! A business model that is borderline extorting money from its customers will not get any additional money from me!
Terrible
As a developer & as a user, this is among the top 3 worst apps I’ve ever used in the history of the smart phone. The interface is cluttered & the responsiveness reminds me of Windows 95. Horrible. Trash. Start over with a new app.
Frustrating!
I have logged in/out, deleted account and signed in, uninstalled and installed again but the workouts still fail to load. App does not need to be updated. Very glitchy.
Not for food ordering?
Wants me to subscribe to something additional to the meal plans. So far cannot use app, will stick to website for managing meal plans.
Need dedicated app
Please make a dedicated app just for the meal plans. I do not want to track weight and calories. Just want an app to chose meals on weakly order. With that in mind this app is horrible.
Get ready for Trifecta to steal your money
I used Trifecta and this app for years, receiving two boxes every Friday, but often had difficulties pausing the service. There is no “pause account” or “cancel service” button on the dashboard. To pause or cancel your account, you must reach a human being.
Trifecta does have a “skip weeks” feature that allows you to skip specific weekly deliveries. After using the “skip” feature the week prior to a trip, I was charged for one box anyway. The staff gave conflicting, confused explanations, at first falsely claiming I had manually “unskipped” one box and then that my boxes had “separate subscription numbers.”
A sales manager, Dave, eventually described a complicated process by which I should have “toggled” into a second box—a feature not visible on the main dashboard—to fully skip the order. When I asked him: “How could I have known that I needed to go through these steps to skip an order?,” Dave reiterated that my money would not be refunded and hung up the phone.

Easy to use, data security questions, doesn’t sync to Apple Health
Very easy to use. I wish all the trifecta meals were already in the database (seems like this would be a no-brainer), but I find myself having to manually add a lot of them.
Main drawback is that it doesn’t export to the Health app.
Also, I suspect they share more data than they let on. Twice I completed the form requesting they not share my information but never received confirmation. Also, I have been scanning some snack products that are in my office (things I never buy for myself) and then only after scanning them I started getting recommendations from Amazon grocery to add those exact products to my cart.

App Review
I’ve used a few meal subscriptions and decided to give Trifecta a try. The app is terrible, it’s hard to find your subscription, change meals, & skip weeks. Should be easier to access
Best workout app!
I’ve used this app for over 1 year now and I’ve really loved it! It pushes me to my limits and keeps me from getting bored with my workouts. It works all body parts and incorporates cardio!
Great, but…
Food is good and easy to log. I wish the app had some place where i could keep track of my daily digestion and other observations I might make
Does Not Work As Described
Does not scan Trifekta meals. Search does not contain all Trifekta meals. Also does not connect to Apple Watch for fitness activity.
App’s nutrition tracking is unusable
The app has a predefined list of meals and ingredients, which is helpful, but if you ever eat anything not on the list there’s no way of entering anything manually, and hence no way of tracking it. Missing such a basic feature makes the app basically useless as a diet tracker.
The exercise tracker isn’t great, either: if you go on a run, you can log either the time or the distance, but not both.

BE CAREFUL IF YOU SIGN UP WITH V-SHRED!
V-Shred gives you a code to use when you sign up.
It’s for 7 meals a month (I think that’s right)….
If you don’t enter the information correctly, you’ll get charged almost $200 EVERY WEEK!!!.
I had to cancel my card to get them to stop charging my account.
The food is fine, but I will not pay $800 a month for that food!

Review
The app was good but I can’t find all the trifecta meals that I subscribe to in the app. Would be better if it integrated the food service for logging.
It’s Ok
Changing and managing current meals is a little clunky.
App is useless without a paid plan.
On top of that the 14-day free trial they mention in the app description is non-existent.
Not worth the money
I had high hopes for this app but was disappointed as soon as I tried to enter the first food item into the log. It doesn’t allow you to change measures (ie. TB to OZ) for specific items. You have to search through and find a close alternative to enter the measurements you want.
If you create a recipe it doesn’t enter the name of the recipe and just macros for the recipe , it list all the ingredients in your recipe when you log your meal.
The app and database need major improvements.

Need a option to just buy the food and not create a plan
I don't like that the app seems to force you to provide unnecessary health info( such as weight) if you just want to purchase the food.
I’m working with a trainer so I’m covered there. They should have an option for people who don’t need to create a plan for them. I try to limit personal information I provide on apps (especially health related) unless it’s necessary.

WOD won’t load
The WOD won’t load or load one day and not the next.
Slow, a lot of bugs, & food subscription sketchy
1. Can’t edit your food subscription in the app.
2. When looking at your subscription, interface is laggy and very slow.
3. In nutrition section, you can’t enter barcodes manually (writing the barcode number). Would be very useful, since the barcodes that come with the trifecta prepared meals are sometimes smudged & very hard for the camera to pick up — entering barcode numbers manually is necessary.
4. Can’t export your nutrition diary.
5. Not even close to what other nutrition tracking apps can do.
***For the price of the the food & and this app’s subscription, I’m very disappointed with this app. I would not recommend it. If you need to track your nutrition, use other apps.
***As far as food subscription, I’m thinking on canceling that as well…
After my first, CUSTOM 14 meal, order arrived, I received an email saying that some of the custom items in the next week’s order are out of order because of “high demand”…
>>>That is sketchy, because they claim that the food is being cooked the week of the shipment… so how can it be out of order if it hasn’t been cooked yet?
They are asking you to update your custom meals within 24 hours, or chef will pick meals for you.
When I go online (website - NOT app) to update my meal — there are very little, to no other options to choose from.
***From what I’m getting, they initially entice you with a large variety of items for your custom order, and then trick you to switch to items that they want you to include each week.
Very sketchy indeed.
