Foodvisor: Nutrição e Dieta +4

Great tool!

It is only my second day using the app. I just love it. I become a bit obsessive when tracking fitness and biomarker changes. This was what I was missing: a great tool that allows to easily track food intake, macros, and provide analysis and tips. The food detection functionality is great, scanning packaged products, taking photos, or searching. I was able to scan my protein shake and greens supplements. Also my snack bars, tea, and stevia. I was amazed when using the photo recognition for the first time that it recognized a slice of cheese, but also the correct type, and it is not really a mainstream one (I believe: it was Comte Rivoire). I can even add LaCroix cans even though they have no calories or nutritional value (see the obsessive behavior). I love how you can adjust your macros, based on dietary preferences like low carb and then customize on top the exact percentages. Also great that they include intermittent fasting management, also customizable and adjustable on the fly for every day if you start later or earlier. Lots of recipes and information on nutrition and activity.
What I am missing: besides core nutritional values, the app also tracks mineral and oligoelement intake. It doesn't however seem to recognize supplements that one may take if their diet is low on something. It would be an improvement to be able to add those by scanning the barcodes :)

It actually works

Accidentally stumbled across this app a month and a half ago and decided to try it out. I’ve never been one for the extreme diets, so Foodvisor seemed good for me as it’s more of a lifestyle change where you eat what you want. I swear, this app has worked so well!! I do not feel like I’m depriving myself of anything I want, I feel more educated on my food choices and how they affect my weight and health, and I feel a lot better. I’ve lost 23 pounds so far and plan on losing 20 more to reach my goal. The classes are so easy and actually educational to me. The app UI is super clean and flows well, I love the new AI features that detect your meal and offer suggestions for how to make it healthier.

I plan to keep using this app for the foreseeable future. Only thing I wish it had was better ways to log your food, in the sense of not only having to use grams, but being able to input cups or oz without having to use an online converter lol.

food database needs work

My biggest complaint with this app is the food database. The barcode scanning only works half the time. I frequently scan something and it can't find it, and then when I go to add it, it has a completely different barcode than what is on the package I just scanned. And when I do add an item, it's near impossible to find it again. There's no list showing foods I've contributed. And when I try searching for it again, I can't find it. And of course I can't scan the barcode again unless it read the barcode correctly. And I can't search by typing in a barcode. In the search isn’t that good. Everything is just listed in some random order it seems. The other problem is adding food. The only option for serving size is grams, which is fine since products list that, but if the serving size is a specific quantity (like 3 pieces for example), there's no way to note that or log the food based on quantity. Also they use grams as measurement for sodium even through the US nutrition labels use mg. So I now have to do math to convert that sodium number to grams.
