I like this app, but do need to pay
I am very happy with tracking my vitamins and supplements. I do need to pay since I take several vitamin pills that are specially compounded. I did submit a request to change copper to mcg , it’s is mg right now. That’s too high. I would love to see a half pill option since some need to be cut in half.

I really like that new feature
Newest version finally has archiving feature for every element. That is what I wanted on my supplements, - when I need to take a break for a few months I can hide those elements to keep my list short. Once I need them I can just make them visible again.
Clean simple and effective
I like that it syncs with Apple Health and respects my privacy. Highly recommended 👍

我尝试了多个应用，只有这款真正做到了完全不要求账号。当我登录之后看到的唯一的设定页面就是开放苹果健康HealthKit的权限，仅此而已。这太棒了。
Taking a vitamin etc difficult due to conflating nutrients consumed in food
I like a few things about this app. Primarily that it syncs with Health. Which in turn syncs with my food tracking app. So I get a full picture of how much I’ve consumed each day.
Where this becomes an issue is that the amount to take has no set default. Instead it defaults to the most recent entry. Which means I need to pay attention and laboriously adjust the quantity each time I take a pill.
For example, I consume a meal that contains 2.2 mg sodium. Then I go to take my iron supplement of 27 mg. Finding the iron section on the app is easy. However, the amount showing is 2.2. So I need to adjust to 27. And it’s not a text box, it’s + and - buttons, so it takes a bit to complete the adjustment. If I even remember to confirm the amount taken.
Don’t get me wrong, I like that I can see my whole day’s intake. But, “Taking” directly is different than “Consuming” passively. They should be treated differently. I should be able to set a default for a supplement. Or, the default chosen by the app should not consider entries from food. Either way, it needs to be easier, and more foolproof, to track the supplements I’m taking. My workaround is to turn off this app in Health. Which defeats one of the benefits of this app.
Also, there is no help. None. And the settings button just opens the Apple settings for the app. No customization.
Overall, it does a few things well. And some not so well. I’m not willing to pay a subscription for such a primitive app with obvious design flaws and shortcomings.
Fix this one issue and I’ll give more stars.
