Very disappointing 😕 ### 1/5 — It’s a recipe app and only a recipe app *2024-03-03* 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. **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

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. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2023-08-20, version 1.10.3* As the other reviewer commented, app just hits a wall, can’t do anything with it ### 1/5 — Not worth the price *2023-06-13* 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. **Developer response:** 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. ### 1/5 — This app is not free *2023-04-23* 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. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience on our app. We understand how frustrating it can be to encounter unexpected costs, especially when you were under the impression that the app was free. We want to assure you that our intention was never to mislead you. We do offer a $4.99 introductory offer so you can try the app, but we understand that it may not be sufficient for some users. We'll take your feedback into account as we continue to improve our app and make it more transparent for users. If there's anything else we can do to help or if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to let us know. We appreciate your support and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future. ### 1/5 — Cancel my subscription *2023-04-19* I have been trying to cancel this subscription for 3 weeks.

Disappointed. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2026-07-06* 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. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2026-06-22, version 1.12.8* 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. ### 1/5 — 🙂 *2026-06-11, version 1.12.8* It does not open 😞 ### 1/5 — App not opening *2026-06-09, version 1.12.8* App not opening after paying subscription, please refund it back ### 1/5 — Doesn’t open *2026-05-18* Paid for a year subscription and then the app doesn’t even open. Please refund my money! ### 1/5 — App is Broken *2026-04-12* 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. ### 1/5 — App not opening *2026-03-28, version 1.12.8* 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. ### 1/5 — Unable to open the app after purchase *2025-12-01* Unable to open the app after purchase ### 1/5 — $100 and it won’t open *2025-11-02* Please fix it and give me my money back ### 1/5 — Overpriced App Undermines Its Mission to Help MS Patients *2025-05-15* 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. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2023-01-07* My wife has ms and this app has made our life so much easier. Well worth the price for the subscription. The recipes have given us so many meals that are delicious. Before we had a few recipes that we stuck to. Now we are able to try new things and not have to worry about them fitting into the Wahls protocol. Any one that believes in the Wahls protocol should definitely get this app to simplify their life. **Developer response:** Hello Kellon, thanks for the feedback. We're happy to know that you are enjoying the app and finding value in using it. We will continue to improve the features of the app so that it truly fulfil the needs of MS patients. ### 5/5 — Life changing!! *2022-09-28* I learned about Dr. Terry Wahls protocol shortly after I was dx with MS almost 10 years ago. I would be lying if I said I followed the protocol perfectly. When I did get serious I noticed big differences, but I would eventually find myself falling off the protocol if things weren’t easy or convenient. This app has it all, it doesn’t matter what level, they have it! My favorite thing about this app is that I can make a plan for the whole week, check off the items that are already in my kitchen from the shopping list before going to the store. It accounts for the number of people in my household & walks me threw the recipes. I’ve learned that it’s possible to make things that follow the protocol that I never thought I’d be able to have again. Wahls recipes are included & more are consistently being added! Life changing app! **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. We're happy to hear that you are enjoying the app and finding value in using it. We are constantly adding new features to make the app more useful for MS patients. ### 4/5 — Name level of recipe *2023-02-03* App seems ok, only been using a few days. Only wish recipes would specifically state which Wahls level it is, this would be much easier to find what you need quickly. Such as grits is not at all Wahls level 3. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know how we can improve our app. We understand how important it is to quickly find recipes that are suitable for your specific dietary needs. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the lack of clarity on the Wahls level of the recipes. We will take your feedback on board and work towards improving our recipe search function to make it easier for you to find recipes that meet your specific dietary requirements. In the meantime, we recommend reviewing the recipe ingredients and instructions to determine which Wahls level they belong to. We also appreciate your suggestion of specifically stating the Wahls level in the recipe name or description, and we will consider implementing this feature in a future update. If you have any further feedback or suggestions for how we can improve the app, please don't hesitate to let us know. We value your input and appreciate your support. ### 4/5 — Pricey *2023-01-15* Seems like it could have been a really effective app but I wish there was a free trial or an option to explore a little and test the app before paying 20$ a month. **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are constantly listening to what the followers of Dr. Wahls are saying. As such, we will soon be offering an introductory price of $4.99 for the first month. This introductory offer will allow new users to explore the app before making a commitment. The launch of the introductory offer will be announced via email and social media soon. ### 3/5 — Another app you need to pay for *2024-09-08, version 1.11.14* Unfair to pay without knowing what you are paying for. ### 3/5 — Not very user friendly *2023-01-26* After going through the app there is a lot of similarities between the nutritional lifestyle that I currently have. Due to how my metabolism works, I focus on the net carbs in a meal or dish. Since this app only lists the total apps in the quick view, I had to go to the full nutrition information to find the net carbs. I did experience a glitch with the app when trying to look up the net carbs of a blood orange. When I clicked to see the full nutrition information, the entire nutrition area went blank. Also, I don’t feel that for me the value of the app is worth the cost. It is very pricey compared to other meal planner apps. Even with lower prices, this app is ONLY subscription based. I have found free apps that, as long as you read the book, allow me to accomplish the same goals as the app would with tracking my diet. **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. Our developers are constantly working on improving the features of the app and adding new ones that MS patients will find helpful. We are also constantly monitoring the app for bugs and doing our best to fix them as soon as possible. We will soon be offering an introductory price of $4.99 for the first month. This introductory offer will allow new users to explore the app before making a commitment. The launch of the introductory offer will be announced via email and social media soon. Aside from the introductory offer, we have also lowered the prices of the various subscription plans. ### 3/5 — Helpful but sadly overpriced for the population who could benefit most *2022-10-17* Many MS patients I have spoken with are very interested in the Whals Diet and could greatly benefit from this app however being disabled sometimes comes with not being able to work thereby having less income. **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are constantly listening to what the followers of Dr. Wahls are saying. As such, we will soon be offering an introductory price of $4.99 for the first month. This introductory offer will allow new users to explore the app before making a commitment. The launch of the introductory offer will be announced via email and social media soon. Aside from the introductory offer, we have also lowered the prices of the various subscription plans. ### 2/5 — Can’t open App *2026-04-02, version 1.12.8* Was loving this but for the past month I’ve been unable to open ### 2/5 — Ok but can’t add recipes or food *2023-11-13* 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. **Developer response:** Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and experiences with the Wahls Diet App. We appreciate your feedback and want to address the concerns you've raised. We're delighted to hear that you find the recipes in the app amazing. However, we sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration caused by errors in the recipes. We understand the importance of accuracy, and our team is committed to resolving these issues promptly. Regarding your concern about the inability to add certain foods, we want to clarify that the Wahls Diet App is primarily designed to provide a curated selection of recipes aligned with the Wahls Protocol. It is not intended to function as a general food tracking app. We intentionally restrict users from adding foods and recipes to ensure strict adherence to the Wahls Protocol. This decision is rooted in two crucial reasons. First, the Wahls Protocol is specific about what foods are allowed to support individuals managing MS symptoms effectively. Second, the recipes and foods featured in the app undergo a rigorous evaluation process, including compliance with the Wahls Protocol and thorough nutritional analysis. Our team ensures that the foods and recipes within the app are not only compliant but also meet the high standards necessary to support your health and wellness goals. This meticulous approach helps us maintain the integrity of the Wahls Diet App and ensures that users are presented with options that align with the core principles of the Wahls Protocol. We understand your desire to track additional foods, such as a plain sweet potato or liver, and we appreciate your input. Please be assured that we take customer feedback seriously, and we are actively working to enhance the app's features while maintaining the strict standards set by the Wahls Protocol. Thank you for your understanding and for being a part of the Wahls community. ### 2/5 — Less than what I expected *2023-03-02, version 1.6.1* I was excited when I opened the app, because it asked how many people I am cooking for. I thought the recipes might be able to be tailored to the amount of servings that I would want. Also, I was hoping that there would be a symptom tracker or a diary page. It is definitely not worth the price they are charging. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
