App doesn’t work

Nothing works. I have tried reinstalling the app, but it won’t even open to the point that you can see the home screen for the app. I like the Wahl’s philosophy, so I have nothing against the protocol, but this app is worthless. I hope they can fix it at some point.

App doesn’t work

I have tried to open his app several times and it won’t open. I removed it, re-downloaded and it still doesn’t open. Not worth even $1 if it doesn’t open. If I get some tips on how to make the app work and it is useful I will adjust this rating.

It does not open 😞

App not opening

App not opening after paying subscription, please refund it back

Doesn’t open

Paid for a year subscription and then the app doesn’t even open. Please refund my money!

App is Broken

I should have read reviews before purchasing but the app does not work. Crashes before opening. Also, I feel that the whole Wahls diet thing has become just a money making scheme. Sure it can help with some symptoms but for the prices charge to even access anything is ridiculous. You’re hurting already suffering individuals who can’t afford what they need. Asked for refund.

Can’t open App

Was loving this but for the past month I’ve been unable to open

App not opening

Was looking forward to testing out this App as I am following the Wahls Protocol. Unfortunately there was no free trial period available so I reluctantly opted for the one month subscription for $24.95. A rather hefty investment to see if the App works for me (as I have some dietary restrictions). However, the App is not even opening and my $25 has been processed. Very disappointed indeed.

Overpriced App Undermines Its Mission to Help MS Patients

I was excited to try this app, hoping it would guide me on managing multiple sclerosis through diet, with clear advice on good and bad foods. However, the $15 monthly subscription feels exorbitantly priced, especially for those of us managing a chronic condition on a budget. It’s deeply disappointing because Dr. Terry Wahls claims to want to help everyone with MS, yet this steep cost excludes many who desperately need accessible resources. The app’s content may be valuable, but the high price feels like a betrayal of its purpose, making it seem more like a profit-driven venture than a genuine effort to support the MS community. I can’t justify the cost and feel let down by an app that prioritizes revenue over affordability for those it aims to serve.

Only flashes “No Plans Available…”

I’m a little surprised that such a great book and protocol would be followed by or attached to this kind of experience/app. After all the setting up it flashes “No Plans Available At The Moment”. Very disappointing 😕

Another app you need to pay for

Unfair to pay without knowing what you are paying for.

It’s a recipe app and only a recipe app

What a disappointment. I started the Wahls Protocol a week ago. For $15/month, I expected an app like this to allow me to have a database of foods that I could check to be sure they’re within plan and a food diary to log what I’m eating and make sure that I’m hitting targets for a day. Instead it’s only about the recipes. I could only plan when to eat and shop for the recipes in the app. Useless as a subscription and insanely overpriced. Canceled.

Ok but can’t add recipes or food

The recipes are amazing. There are errors in the recipes. One described hardboiling an egg, but there was no egg in the ingredients. My biggest issue is the inability to add foods. While there are some single foods, it is missing a lot. For instance, I had a plain sweet potato. I couldn’t add it because it did not come up on a search. There are tons of sweet potato recipes, but you should be able to add a plain sweet potato. That is just one example. I couldn’t add just liver either. Basically, if you don’t use the recipes in the app, you can’t track.

Thank you for your understanding and for being a part of the Wahls community.

Hmm

Who would really want to eat ‘bacon grease’ as a breakfast recipie?

It’s a nice idea but missing essential things and confusing to navigate.

It also really needs a daily carb tracker to be usable, as keeping under 50g is an essential part of ketogenesis.

It would also be much better if your ingredient preferences saved and didn’t reset each time you search for a new recipie.

Does not work

As the other reviewer commented, app just hits a wall, can’t do anything with it

Not worth the price

I have looked at several breakfast recipes. The often contain bananas which are not encouraged on the Wahls diet and are only to eaten after all the other nine cups of vegetables and fruit. Also, I number of recipes contain oats. The book indicated that they are not allowed. I’m canceling my subscription. Not worth almost $40 for 3 months.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Dr. Wahls does allow bananas after the appropriate vegetable intake, and we are not able to determine if you follow that advice. Oats are allowed in the non-gluten grain, limited amount category. Please let us know if you need assistance. We are happy to help you in any way we can. Our goal is your improved health.

This app is not free

This app is listed as free, with in-app purchases, but you literally can’t even do anything more than watch the intro and set up an account before you have to pay for a subscription. Nothing about it is free.
