I was skeptical but impressed
I used the free trial and loved the app and have now started paying monthly. I don’t depend on this app to be 100% accurate but consider the changes as an overall idea of how I’m improving. I’m very visual and this helps keep me motivated even when I may not see x changes on the scale. Saying this, I have noticed recently that I’m having a hard time getting the scan to stay green but is not been so difficult that I would scrap the app. There’s definitely room for improvement in this area but generally if I stand still for a few seconds, I can get everything to line up. Another tip is to make sure you scan with as little visual distraction in the background. This seems to help a lot!

Insulting the User
I won’t get into the ads and paywalls as others have. The app insists to the point of refusing to do anything else that one’s device audio must be set to a certain level. I think the user can decide for themselves how loud they want the audio to be, especially if they’re using headphones or in a small room. There is no reason to block features behind audio levels, and such a requirement should trigger review from Apple for violation of HIG. It’s an insult to the user.

One request
This does a great job with estimating body fat, body dimensions, and tracking trends over time. I would love if app could be used for hypertrophy as well as fat loss.
Great app
I’m not in the USA so many of the barcode do not scan or aren’t recognised. This is also applicable to foods that are specific to a region.
To get around this I find an item with similar calories and then edit the fat/protein/carbs to match the nutrition chart

Extremely inaccurate
This app claimed that I gained 3% body fat within a two week span, which is feasibly impossible. I work out 5 to 6 times a week and eat healthy, currently in a tracked deficit. Haven’t lost or gained weight but my measurements are very slightly larger (minuscule changes). Meaning I’ve gained muscle not fat! But for the untrained eye, It’s probably very unhealthy for people to use this app because inaccuracy can be startling. As a physical therapist would not recommend.
