This seems to be the best app for tracking sodium (and other elements if needed). Works quickly, gives you lots of options to find and record foods. Making “Meals” is an easy way to group frequently used foods and ingredients, like a “coconut milk mocha”. I have to keep my sodium down to 1500mg/day or less. This app supports me in keeping an eye on all my foods and ingredients.

First of all, I upgraded to premium. For a one time flat fee, it was worth it. The adds were so annoying, and compromised the integrity of the app. I’ve used food trackers before with good success, but now I’m having to track sodium intake for hypertension, and following the DASH Diet. Think this is probably my best option for a simple nutrient/sodium tracker. But am missing things other apps are better at. Three things I wish they’d improve on: 1) good direction on how to navigate/use the app. Some things, like creating my own recipe, are not intuitive. I’ve reached out for help but no response. Eventually I figured it out. And more often I find a workaround. 2) improve on barcode scanner. Several times I’ve scanned and a SIMILAR food item has come up, but not the actual brand I scanned. And always the nutrient values are off. And I end up creating a food. 3) sometimes the numbers just don’t add up for a meal or a day. So knowing this I’m having to check and double check. Sometimes delete and re-enter. Very annoying. Bottom line, COULD BE SO MUCH BETTER, but it works.

First, the app does what it says. I cannot dispute that it meets its mission. But there are issues. The look is way too crowded, making navigation difficult. Putting all meals on one screen, plus grafts, charts, search box … poor design. The scrolling selection for servings/sizes is positioned too close to the screen edge, causing frequent switching of the screen. The above can be overlooked, but there is a major flaw. It seems most of the data is user entered. MANY are far from accurate. This is unacceptable as users must guess (or Google) for accurate sodium, calorie, and fat content. Further, there is no breakdown of sat vs unsat vs trans fats. This is a major shortcoming. I paid for the premium version before realizing the inaccurate data. Don’t waste the $9.99.Update: a recent change is causing significant lags in the logging features. I’ve been using this app daily for almost a year now. It just keeps getting worse. Does anyone know if a good alternative?

**Update for others who have complained about the ads freezing up the app. My 15-year-old daughter showed me how to close the app down basically on my iPhone swipe up and close it. When you close it it will go back into the dash diet screen. Hope they fix the issue with the ads. Because it’s still pretty annoying.Not super happy with this app. The ads popping up on the screen all the time actually make it difficult to use because I can’t figure out how to close the ads out and get back to the app. Also I wish there was a way to save foods so I could more quickly track foods that I eat almost every day. I also wish there was a way to edit a food and move it from one day to the next if you put it on the wrong day. Also when you open up the app it doesn’t automatically go to the day that is current it just kind of is where you left it it could be the previous day or some other day.
