I'm 53 years young and was in great shape all my life. Sat year my son was diagnosed with cancer. I completely stopped taking care of myself and not eating well. I gained 15 pounds and was diagnosed with diabetes. Now that my so is getting better I realized I had lost control. This app has helped me regain my mental state. So far I've lost 10 pounds and in my way to loose 10 more. With the app it takes the guess work out of my busy day. Thank you for this wonderful app!! 140 is my goal.
Too Cumbersome

Did not know basic measurements were metric and also too time consuming when entering own food choices. Waste of money.
A waste of money

I hoped I might be able to use it in the most basic way, seeing as it hasn’t had updates in 2 years, however it calculates carbs completely wrong, so is absolutely useless. One day it calculates my breakfast as 1g carbs and the next 39g. It is all over the place and completely wrong. Stick to MyFitnessPal
Don’t waste your money

Incredibly overpriced. This appears to be an app designed for the UK and Europe. Most of the foods are things I have never heard of, the measurements are in grams, and it can’t find anything using the barcode. Save your money.
This version includes an important update to our dependencies that was causing a small number of users to have visual issues on some of the app screens.
