### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht

*2023-08-10*

Funktioniert nicht

### 1/5 — Nutzlose App

*2021-12-20*

Wenn man denn mal erfahren würde mit welchen Ernährungswaagen diese komische aap zu funzen beginnt, könnte sie evtl. nützlich sein.

### 4/5 — Great app and scales but how do I add liquids

*2021-02-05*

Want to add coconut milk but can only add weight in grams

### 1/5 — Leider nicht funktionsfähig

*2019-03-14*

Kann mich dem Vorgänger nur anschließen: man kann keine Waage hinzufügen und irgendwie reagiert die ganze App nicht richtig

### 1/5 — Gute Idee, leider nicht funktionsfähig

*2018-07-15*

Theoretisch eine gute Sache, aber ich kann derzeit die Grammzahl nicht verändern, somit macht die app keinen sinn. Wenn der Fehler behoben wird gibt es 5 Sterne.

### 2/5 — Küchen Waage gut und die APP dazu ungenau fehlerhaft

*2018-03-21*

Diese App ist bei einigen Lebensmitteln im Kohlenhydratwert fehlerhaft und uns fehlen leider die Broteinheiten (BE) bei der App.

### 3/5 — Es funktioniert leider nicht

*2017-07-09*

Hallo, ich würde ihre App gerne benutzen. Leider kann ich keine Waage hinzufügen. Oder muss das ne externe Bluetoothwaage sein. Ich sehe nur ein weißes Bild beim Punkt "Waage hinzufügen"

Liebe Grüße
