Je ne reçois pas l email de confirmation lors de m ont inscription donc appli non utilisable pourtant je l ai payez

This is an excellent App to help find relief from various digestion-related problems. After many years of IBS, and many years of trial and error, I was pointed in the direction of the Fast Tract Diet. This App is handy to have on your phone. It has a daily diary in which you input your food to keep track of symptoms. There is a shopping list you can add ‘reliable’ food and drink to, an extensive list of food and drink, which you can refer to in order to make good food choices, and more. The science behind the App is explained above. I for one am very pleased with the eating plan itself and intend to follow this guidance for an IBS free life. In addition there is a private Facebook group you can join for support and a published book. Give this a try! Highly recommended.

I had hoped that many of the bugs were addressed, since many of the reviews are old. I just bought this, and I put in a custom recipe. The app changed my ingredients in the recipe. Argh! So I went to the support link which takes me to where I can make an appointment, not technical support. Who wants to enter each ingredient in a dish each time? Nice idea, but yeah, a spreadsheet is easier and accurate. Save your money. If tech folks fix this, I'm happy to change my review.

If you are following a low fermentation potential diet, this is very helpful, but not perfect. When I create custom recipes, I will often look back at my recipes to find that oddly items have been swapped out. This happened multiple times so I ended up editing the recipe to list an entirely different ingredient and that seemed to fix it but it made my recipes inaccurate. Also, sometimes when I’m on a certain day, which I’ve double checked, I go to add a food, and it puts it on the previous day. Then I have to edit it, and it goes in the right place but there’s just a variety of glitchy things like this. A couple of times I’ve added “sucrose (table sugar)” to a recipe and looked later and it said “splenda.” of course, that could’ve been an error on my end but then I would redo it and come back and find the same weird glitch! Also, I would love it if there was someway to export a tab delineated / spreadsheet document of some kind for me to have a better view of my trends and symptoms, etc.

The app is pretty glitchy at times. I’ve used it off and on for a few years now. The diet works well if you follow it and have digestive issues. But the app needs attention. Recently I haven’t been able to add any custom foods. When I go to add them they never save. This problem started in the past 6 months or so. The food lists are pretty limited so being able to add custom foods is pretty important. Maybe they should do a more community/user submitted database similar to my fitness pal..Where there is a more vast database of user submitted foods. Just an idea.

I’ve been using this app for 4 days. It keeps giving different FP scores for the *exact same* foods and amounts. It has done this for at least 5 different items. It can be 5 FP for one meal, and 0 FP for the next. I have no idea which one is accurate. I tried emailing the company via the address provided in the app, but it bounced back as the email address is no longer operational. I’ve never paid so much for a nearly unusable app. I say “nearly” because at least I can track my symptoms on the app. Very frustrating to be unable to use it to track food.

I’ve been using this app for about six weeks, consistently tracking my symptoms and meals. I will say that with a low (5-15/day) FP diet, my heartburn symptoms (burning sensation) have been eliminated, other symptoms have slightly reduced or stayed the same. As far as the app, it is useful for adding symptoms, noting your meals, and tracking overtime with the graph, however it is very glitchy, which frequently which makes it frustrating to use. For example, the buttons in general do not see very responsive, and either they are slow or have to be tapped multiple times to get them to do what they’re supposed to do (both the meal type/ symptom button page and the individual food items and symptoms); and many times when I hit the back button, the app closes all together. Also, when entering a new meal, almost invariably the very first item I enter ends up on the previous meal rather than the new meal that I’m entering, so I constantly have to double check what I’m entering and verify the meals after they’ve been entered. In addition to having the glitches fixed, the app could definitely use some other practical updates as other users have pointed out, but the glitches are the main reason for the reduced stars in this review.

After paying eight dollars. You can’t even use the app right away. You have to give away personal information and sign up for an account with the company and then wait for them to send you a verification email before you can even use the app or look up anything on the food list

No idea where the bad reviews are coming from. This app is super simple and super handy. Only improvement is more food in the database as well as ability to scan a barcode but the calculator is handy when the food is not in the database. Only on day 1 of this diet and can already tell it’s the one for me.
