### 5/5 — My gut thanks me

*2026-08-12*

I always thought I was eating enough vegetables. I had never been so wrong. The first week felt strange, but then I got the hang of it.

**Developer response:** Really glad you didn't give up after that first week. Vegetables do a lot of quiet work - fiber, staying full longer, steadier energy after meals.

### 1/5 — Bait and switch

This isn’t an ‘in app purchase’ app. This is a fully pay to use app. You will need to give them your payment information before checking out their app in full. You need to pay a subscription before you figure out whether you like the app or not. They do offer a free trial of a couple days so if that’s enough for you to judge the app maybe this is for you.
Developer reached out to me to explain the app works exactly as I wrote. You will need to download the app, allow it access to your device and submit a payment method before you ever get a look at the app. None of this is spelled out prior to onboarding and granting access to your information. There is no free version past the 7 days max (depending on subscription agreement). This is the definition of bait and switch.

**Developer response:** Hi! We’ve made the purchase process completely transparent. Here’s how it works: you get a 7-day free trial with full access to all features. Two days before your trial ends, you’ll receive a notification about the upcoming payment. Payment only occurs after your trial period is over. You can cancel anytime during the trial without being charged. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out - we’re happy to help!

Hello

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for the 5 stars! If you ever have questions or feedback, we’re always here. 😊

### 5/5 — Absolutely the best…

*2026-04-17*

I have tried most of the diet apps out there, lost a few pounds here and there, but nothing lasting. My doctor referred me to a Registered Dietitian because of health issues (I’m active, but not aging gracefully). I don’t care for paper tracking and found this app…can’t say enough. My A1C is down and I’m no longer pre-diabetic because I am eating healthy…not stressing over calories or food points. I’m not snacking between meals because of cravings. I’ve had some questions and suggestions and found the tech support to be fantastic…I cancelled my monthly subscription and signed up for the annual program. I’m super happy, my dietitian is happy and my doctor is happy…

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for sharing your story! We’re thrilled to hear that WholePlate is helping you improve your health. Congratulations on making such great progress - moving past the pre-diabetic stage is a huge achievement! If you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear your feedback.
