В приложении есть функция отправки нам письма — оно автоматически включает технические детали, которые могут помочь нам быстрее разобраться. Двое инженеров уже пытались воспроизвести проблему в течение пары дней, но, к сожалению, пока безуспешно. Также рекомендуем попробовать полностью удалить приложение и установить его заново — возможно, некоторые локальные данные, связанные с расписанием, могли сохраниться и влияют на работу. Если проблема сохранится — пожалуйста, напишите нам через приложение. Мы обязательно постараемся помочь! ### 4/5 — Exactly what I was looking for but… *2025-02-07* Hi this looks like a great cheap app and I just needed to be able to see all the vitamins I have taken shown on a list from apple health data and this is great but one thing I may suggest that would make it a lot better is allowing people to set daily goals or recommended ones for some vitamins that would perfect it like under/over sodium or protein. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your fantastic review and helpful suggestion! We're thrilled you find our app useful for tracking your vitamins from Apple Health data. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. 🙏 You've hit on a really interesting point about daily goals and recommended limits for vitamins and minerals. We actually used to have those features in the app, but we ran into a significant challenge. We discovered that recommended daily allowances for vitamins and minerals vary *quite a bit* from country to country. Even more challenging, vitamin and mineral supplements often contain doses that are far higher than these daily recommendations. A good example is Vitamin B. Here in the USA, "B-100" multivitamins are common, with each pill containing 100mg or mcg of various B vitamins. While the daily requirement for B1 might be around 1.2mg, these pills contain much more. Our research indicated that supplement manufacturers often include these higher doses for vitamins like B where there are no *known* significant side effects. However, this isn't the case for all vitamins and minerals. Something like Zinc or Selenium can be potentially harmful in high doses. ⚠️ Because of these variations and potential safety concerns, we made the decision to remove the built-in limits. Instead, we've added a "Recommendations" section in the "About" area of the app, providing information based on sex and age. This approach has been well-received by many users. 👍 However, we understand the value of being able to set personalized goals, and we appreciate you bringing this up again. I absolutely agree that this would be a great addition. I'll bring it up at our team's Monday meeting for discussion. On a side note, we're very close to releasing a new version of the app that will allow you to add notes and photos to each vitamin/mineral entry. We're excited about these new features! If the team decides to add user-defined goals, it likely won't make it into *this* next release. Thanks again for your feedback! We're constantly working to improve the app, and user input like yours is incredibly valuable. P.S. If you feel this response has been helpful and answered your question, we'd be incredibly grateful if you'd consider giving us an extra star in your rating. ⭐ Every star helps us reach more people and continue improving the app. ✨ Thank you! 🙏 ### 5/5 — Simple app - Great Dev Team *2025-02-03* I recently found the Vitamin app when doing research on simple and easy to use third-party apps that integrate with the Apple Health app. A lot of the apps I found in the past have been too overcomplicated, trying to do too many things at once. Vitamin is an extremely simple and streamlined app that I have found to be incredibly straightforward and easy to use. There are definitely a few more features and tweaks that could be made to really bring out the potential of this app, and typically when an app is in that stage of development, it is extremely hard to offer feedback or get in touch with the necessary teams to make recommendations. When I suggested including an apple shortcuts integration, I got a response within a couple hours, letting me know that I had a fantastic idea and that my suggestion would be forwarded to the appropriate team. So far, this feels like a development team that truly cares about the quality of the app that they’re building and wants to maintain full integrity with it. I will 100% be continuing to use this app and I’m looking forward to seeing how it continues to develop and grow. I would strongly suggest giving it a try. ### 3/5 — Nice and simple but… *2025-01-04* This app is nice and simple. It isn’t trying g to rob my time like other apps. However, I get a total for my vitamins and supplements which is nice for those who know how much of each is required daily. I need that in a percentage for so I know if I’m reaching my body’s needed amount. If there is a way to switch to percentage and I haven’t found that yet please let me know where I can find it. Also, is it would be nice to have Apple Health integration for those who are using other apps to track food intake. Thanks for creating this app. **Developer response:** Thank you for your thoughtful review! 😊 We’re glad you appreciate the simplicity of our app. To address your concerns: 1️⃣ You can switch to percentages by going to the “About” section for vitamins and tapping on “Chart.” It will toggle between the dose in mg and the daily percentage based on your age and sex. 2️⃣ Apple Health integration is already built into the app. It requests permission when you first launch it. If you dismissed it quickly, you can go to your iPhone’s privacy settings, find our app, and allow access to vitamins, minerals, age, and sex. This helps us provide precise recommendations. 3️⃣ We’re actively working on a new version that will include more foods and nutrients from the USDA database. (We rely only on US government-approved data, no third-party sources!) If this answers your questions, we’d be grateful if you could consider updating your rating to 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Our small team, working completely for free, would greatly appreciate the support to continue improving the app for you and others! 🙏 Thank you for using Vitamin! 🌟 ### 5/5 — Has everything I need *2024-12-10* This app is much easier to use than multiple other apps I have tried to track my vitamins. Simplicity is one of the major factors for my busy life. As medical doctor I can say this is one of the best on Apple Store. Ability to use my Apple Watch is another big plus. ### 5/5 — Verified, Reliable, and Efficient! 🌟 *2024-11-06* I chose this app because it's one of the few on the Mac App Store that's verified to run smoothly on a Mac, unlike many others. With its impressive ratings on the iPhone App Store, I knew I had to check it out. Since using it, I’ve been impressed! It runs flawlessly on my Mac, and syncs effortlessly with my iPhone and iPad, pulling data from Apple Health. The app's intuitive interface and real-time updates make tracking my vitamins easy and effective. 💪 For anyone looking for a reliable vitamin tracking app, this is a must-have. Download it now and take control of your health! 💪 ### 3/5 — It’s ok *2024-10-19, version 1.8* There’s better apps available. ### 4/5 — Great app! *2024-10-12* This is the only app I’ve found that actually tracks vitamins and minerals ! I’m looking forward to seeing if you do add more supplements to track . But I love how it syncs with apple health . I do have a suggestion , when you click on supplements or pills , if it’s possible to create an add all button on that page , or add button and then you can select all the supplements to add that day. Instead of individually going onto each supplement and having to add. As it is just quite slow going at times. But anyways , thank you for this app! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback and for sharing how much you’re enjoying the app! We’re thrilled to hear that you find it helpful in tracking your vitamins and minerals, and we’re glad that the Apple Health sync is working well for you. We are almost done with the next app release, hope we can get it to the store within 2 weeks because our rule is to release when it is fully read and tested. It would mostly iOS18 related release for better compatibility, plus a few UI enhancements Your suggestion for an “add all” button when selecting supplements is a great idea! It is already shared with the rest of the team. We understand how adding them one by one can take some time, and we’ll consider this for future updates to improve the user experience. If you find our response helpful and enjoy using the app, we’d really appreciate it if you could bump your rating to 5 stars. Thank you again for your support! 😊 ### 3/5 — Randomly changing my schedule *2024-10-02* Many vitamins I take 7 days a week and the app keeps changing the days seemingly randomly each week. One week it will be Thursday another week it Will be Wednesday. The Scheduling issue is quite inconvenient for my purposes. **Developer response:** We are going to release new version hopefully next week where Sunday reminders should work. Problem was related to the first day of week being Sunday in USA and Monday in Germany. For support we have email section that you can use to send us a message if none of social networks work for you. 🤝 We hope you found our response helpful!

Your positive feedback not only supports our team but also boosts our morale, encouraging us to maintain high standards of service. Thank you for choosing to engage with us, and we look forward to assisting you further. ### 5/5 — Best vitamin and health app *2024-08-16* It has so many vitamins listed and which foods have what vitamins and it has it on a graph so you can see how much of your daily value it is. It has the minimum amount of the vitamin you need and some of them have a maximum that you shouldn’t exceed it has benefits of all the vitamins and even what study’s showing correlating to the vitamin very great app ### 5/5 — Is it perfect? Might be. *2024-07-13* The most recent update fixed the only issue I was having (Sunday notifications didn’t exist). Currently has everything I need. **Developer response:** We are going to release new version hopefully next week where Sunday reminders should work.

I was looking for an app that could track my supplement intake (since MyFitnessPal doesn’t) and work with Apple Health. And this does. However, the app itself is not the most user friendly. Instead of scanning a barcode to find items, you have to enter each individually & naming them is odd as you can’t just enter the full name. Also, I wish it had an Apple Health type of tracking system, where it reminds you to take them and easily allows you to check it off. It’s just in that awkward developmental phase, but with tweaks to make it easier to use & navigate, this will be a great app. Update 07/03/24 - why am I paying for a ‘premium’ version when it doesn’t actually track what I’m taking? I enter that I took a supplement, but it still says that my last entry was yesterday. ### 3/5 — Reminders not working *2024-06-23* I have every day selected for reminders. I don’t get reminders on Sunday. Also app support just goes to Twitter. I don’t use Twitter, so that is unhelpful. **Developer response:** We are going to release new version hopefully next week where Sunday reminders should work. Problem was related to the first day of week being Sunday in USA and Monday in Germany.

The app also resets my reminders to random days. It resets them every day. There are more app crashes than usual when opening the notifications I actually do get which requires me to input individually. I might as well use an actual notebook. Also seems impossible to contact app support. App Store link takes you to Twitter. I would have just sent an email, but since that no longer seems possible or at least as simple as before, I will be unsubscribing and deleting this app quickly. It is no longer efficient, and if I am paying for an app, I need easy access to the developer. Unacceptable. **Developer response:** Ensure your device and iCloud have sufficient storage available. If you encounter issues, you can reach out to us via the feedback section in the app, where email support is available. Recently, we received a report of a sync issue caused by the user's iCloud storage being completely full. Unfortunately, even their iCloud email was rejecting our replies, despite multiple attempts to respond. Proper storage management can help avoid similar problems. 🤝 We hope you found our response helpful!

I restarted my phone but could not get the full features. What do I need to do to get the full features on the trial version? ### 1/5 — Good idea but with problems *2023-05-10, version 1.6* It doesn’t sync properly with the HealthKit. Last 5-6 days I added the supplements the same way I always do but twice it was missing from the healthkit db. It’s not reliable. ### 1/5 — A waste *2023-04-19, version 1.6* Don’t download your first month is free and that’s it ### 2/5 — Taking a vitamin etc difficult due to conflating nutrients consumed in food *2025-06-06* 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. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for taking the time to share such detailed and constructive feedback. We genuinely appreciate users like you who help us understand where we can improve. First, we're thrilled you love the Health sync integration! It's a core feature designed to give users a holistic view of their intake, so we're glad it's working well for your tracking needs. You've raised excellent points about the default quantity behavior and input method for supplements: 1️⃣ +/- Input: We hear you! Our designers are already iterating on a more efficient input method to replace tedious tapping. 2️⃣ In-App Settings & Help: You're right—these are overdue! We're migrating settings into the app (staged rollout starts soon), and an FAQ section is on our radar. We have posted a few videos on how to do things but we need to organize it better and bring it into the app. As a small startup, we're working hard to balance improvements with our limited resources, but your feedback helps us focus on what matters most. We're committed to evolving beyond the "primitive" experience you described—fixes for these pain points are already in motion. If this response gives you confidence in our direction, we'd be incredibly grateful if you considered adding a star or two to your review. It means the world to our small team and fuels our motivation to push these updates faster! ### 2/5 — Плохо, не важно *2025-04-21* Абсолютно не понятное приложение. Очень не приятно в использовании **Developer response:** Благодарим за ваш отзыв. Нам действительно важно, чтобы каждый пользователь получал отличный опыт работы с приложением, и мы стремимся к постоянному совершенствованию. Ваш комментарий дал понять, что вы столкнулись с определёнными трудностями, однако нам не хватает 👉 конкретики, чтобы оперативно и эффективно разобраться в ситуации. Мы будем признательны, если вы сможете рассказать подробнее об аспектах, которые показались вам непонятными или неприятными. Эта информация поможет нам улучшить функциональность и удобство нашего приложения для всех пользователей. Ваш вклад очень важен для нас, и мы искренне надеемся, что вместе сможем сделать наше приложение лучше для каждого. Спасибо за то, что помогаете нам расти и развиваться! ### 2/5 — Not robust enough *2025-02-11, version 1.8.2* I expected so much more. I am disappointed. ### 2/5 — the boiled chicken of vitamin apps *2023-07-14, version 1.6.1* it does its job, which is track your vitamins and supplements. but it does not have many conventions featured often expected from a nutrition app, such as calendars. overall it is not well organized, and the available vitamin and mineral variety is lacking. would also be nice to be able to scan a label and have the ingredients put in automatically. overall just a bland app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Витамин *2026-04-09* Очень понравилось приложение. Большой набор продуктов и на каждом расписано колличество микроэлементов. Просто и доступно. **Developer response:** Мы очень благодарны за ваш положительный отзыв о нашем приложении. Рады слышать, что вы нашли интерфейс удобным и что графики помогают вам наглядно видеть и корректировать ваш рацион. ### 5/5 — I like this app, but do need to pay *2026-03-22* 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. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for using our app to track your vitamins and supplements. We’re really glad it’s been helpful for you. You’re absolutely right about the copper unit. Earlier versions of the app used mg, and thanks to users who reached out to us via our support email, we updated it to mcg so it’s accurate and much easier to enter the correct amount. If you were the one who originally requested that change, we truly appreciate it. We’re committed to keeping the app stable, accurate, and easy to use, and feedback like yours helps us continue improving the experience for everyone. Thank you again for helping us make the app better. ### 5/5 — I really like that new feature *2026-03-15* 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. ### 5/5 — Clean simple and effective *2025-12-03, version 2.0* I like that it syncs with Apple Health and respects my privacy. Highly recommended 👍 ### 5/5 — 免费且无需注册 *2025-07-11, version 1.9* 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。 ### 5/5 — Nice and simple *2025-05-22* I checked tons of apps to track my nutrition and choose this one because it had what I needed (track what I want, Apple Health sync and reminders), and design of the app is minimalistic so I do not have to think much on how to use it. That really made me use it. **Developer response:** We sincerely appreciate your positive review! Your feedback is invaluable and genuinely helps our team continue to maintain and enhance the app with new features. On that note, we're excited to let you know that a new version of the app is planned for development this summer. ### 5/5 — The perfect app *2025-05-08* This app is perfect to track my vitamins. It’s helpful with my busy life with the reminders and tracking history. The free version is really good, which is the one I’m currently using. I think this app is the best I’ve used and hopefully every one finds it very useful too! ### 5/5 — Great app, simple, and the price is right. *2025-04-11, version 1.9* 4.75 stars. Need to add more slots for supplements. The ability to export right to Apple Health is a great feature that only this app seems to have. ### 5/5 — Лучшее *2025-03-15* Все конкуренты меркнут, так как здесь собраны самые необходимые, но самые важные функции для отслеживания приема витаминов и таблеток. Гибкие настройки. Возможность добавить самостоятельно лекарства. Описание витаминов. Интеграция в приложение здоровье. Постоянно делаются обновления, добавляются новые функции. Реальная обратная связь, разработчик всегда отвечает на сообщения. Супер. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2025-03-02, version 1.8.2* Value app and would recommend! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
