I’ve been using this app for about 6 months now, and just with the little nudges and encouragement it gives to eat the right amounts of the right things, and move more, I’ve managed to drop 4 pants sizes! I had never thought in the world of heavily monetised weight loss and fitness that it truly could ever be as simple as “eat less move more” (and it’s not really - it’s not eat less it’s eat the right amount!) but Lifesum has helped me learn that. 6 months in I find myself using the app a bit less, but that is because it has helped to teach me a better lifestyle where I don’t need to micro-track everything I eat to balance my day, but I’m still very reluctant to let my premium membership go because it has had so much of a massive impact on my life. Truly paradigm-shifting!The only thing I wish it had that it doesn’t is recipes that are a bit more “family” friendly (as in stuff I had a snowball’s hope in hell of getting a picky 4 year old to eat with me!)

New updates have too many bugs

I have the paid version of Lifesum and really liked it at the start. However, since they are implementing more AI the updates come with an immense amount of bugs. The latest is that I get locked out and once I log back in I can still see the food I locked thus far but it shows 0 calories, 0 carbs etc. it also removes all data that was already synched to Apple Health before - I use this to track how much fibre and sugar I’ve consumed. But even before that the AI update came with bugs. Scanning and adding more than item at a time, some days impossible as it would overwrite what copy scanned before. Making it very tedious to track a whole meal. Favouriting meals impossible when using the version of the diary that uses AI analyses of the meals, meaning I constantly have to switch between the two versions to be able to track meals I saved as favourites before. When selecting “recent” food in the new version it sometimes tracks a similiar item but not the exact one I scanned which defeats the purpose as the nutritional information differs. On top of that the new AI summaries don’t align with the Timezone I am in (and my phone is set to). In the evening it tells me that this is a great start to the da and vice versa. I’m not usually one to write reviews, but this app has recently annoyed me daily and I’m quite upset to have spent money on it. Still giving it 3 stars because it used to be better and I appreciate the overall design, concept and extra features such as tracking body measurements etc.

This app started my eating disorder because I was only 13 and didn’t know the damage restricting and counting calories could cause. The age restriction should be higher, and there should be educational resources on food disorders, or a disclaimer, or just something for people who don’t realise they could be vulnerable to the damages of calorie counting. Just be wary that in the wrong hands, like a 13 year old girl going through body imagine issues, this sort of thing can promote anxiety around food, eating disorders, and so much more for years to come. I’m now 17 and still struggle with the effects of this, and I think that just putting something in place to add caution for people on this app could be helpful in preventing this sort of thing, and promote it as a tool, and not something to obsess over! - promote that not reaching a calorie goal each day doesn’t mean you have to eat less the next day or something. I also found how atrocious it is that you could set a goal to only consume 1200 calories a day. That is the amount of calories an average toddler eats. And the fact that I didn’t know that until years later, and that I had been trying to starve myself for years because I thought that thats what you have to do to lose weight - because this app told me so - is terrible. I haven’t been on this app for 2-3 years, so I’m not sure if anything has changed. I’m hoping that it has, or will.
