Was free until it asked to do an update

Mavi7788 on

After installing the update, without warning I now have to pay to view certain foods which happen to be the foods I search frequently. This app has helped immensely with managing my son’s type 1 diabetes but it’s useless now. Really you guys should be charging new sign ups not current members.

What the hell have you done?

Kevin Foad on

I bought this a few years ago and it’s been invaluable. Really excellent - helped me get control of my diet and diabetes. It told me there was an upgrade today (6 Dec 2021) - and assured me all my data would be brought over. However: I keep getting asked if I’d like to upgrade and pay monthly, and where I had particular meals set up, it now says some of the ingredients are ‘premium’ only so I can’t view my own regular meals (unless I recreate them myself). Also, the targets are fiddly to use with rotten sliders that twitch as you let go (took me 5 attempts to dry ‘sat fat to 11g’) - and all my history is gone! (It did warn me but I saw that note AFTER I’d updated). Also, you can’t seem to view more than one nutrient for the whole day or meal (Eg as a diabetic with other conditions to manage, I need to flick between my nutrients quickly tp check I am on or off track to make meal decisions quickly - it seems you can log 5 nutrients and see them totalize, but can only view one at a time). The interface looks nice - but this was a massive change I was not expecting and lost a load of features and data - be careful upgrading. I’ve no idea if these features are in the premium edition - but I BOUGHT this app already at full price with the book too .. why am I now being asked for monthly payments to maintain what I already bought? Update: used it another 20 mins - you can’t put fractional portions in (for some foods I didn’t have a weight, I just put ‘1’ for the portion - and would do .33 .25 .75 or .5 or 1 etc. You can only do whole numbers or half and quarter. Also, it lost a load of my custom foods and meals. A lot is there, but I’ve lost all my protein powders and nutrition boosters and some recipes/meals. There is a mix of old and new still there and a mix of old and new gone - so I’ve no idea what it’s lost.. until I go to use my regular items. :/ I will continue to try the app - as this has really helped me control, lose weight, maintain health and manage my conditions. This was NOT a smooth ‘upgrade.’

app works perfect for me ....

weast coast on

... lost 5 pounds in 4 weeks. The only complaint I have, I cannot save my custom created meals after giving it a name, hence 4 stars only.

Not happy

LeahJane07 on

I bought this app as it was recommended elsewhere and I'm trying to lose weight. I have found that a lot of the foods I want to register are not found. I don't even use it. It was a waste of my money.

App is broken

Bakuryokuso on

Doesn't open and won't work - pretty ridiculous after a 3-year wait for an update.. disappointing!! Please fix ASAP!
