6of the 43 read14%

“They are making it worse — HORRIFIC UX design. I used to love this app back in the day. It was functional, easy to use, had a free barcode scanner. Whoever bought this is greedy and also really bad at design. I’d cancel if I hadn’t already built a great recipe library back in the day. But I can tell you what… I’ll never pay for this piece of junk.” — ★★☆☆☆“UPDATE SUCKS — Go back to the old layout. The update is terrible to read and log food. I'm finding another app” — ★☆☆☆☆“New update — Sucks. Contact me to know more I dont want to spend 10 min writing a review. Its too long. Too many bad things. Old version 100x better” — ★☆☆☆☆

“Macros are no longer available! — I’ve been using this app since I started my cut and the most useful view was to see my daily macros. Now it’s hidden behind the paywall! Also the new UI is way harder to find what I need. It’s basically become useless. What happened?!” — ★☆☆☆☆“Now I gotta pay to able use the barcode — I really did enjoy this app I’ve had it for 2 years and now I gotta pay to use the barcode 🫩 yall were quick and easy and now u want my money 🥲” — ★★☆☆☆“Warning/Greed — I’ve used this app FOR YEARS, from my teens well into adulthood, and every year and every update it’s more and more paywalls. Paywalls for what used to be free features of the app. I still remember when you could insert your own macros of a food that wasn’t logged, and I still remember when you could dial in your macros and calories numbers without the need of a slider and percentages. This is app is…” — ★☆☆☆☆

“Premium problems. — My premium subscription that I’ve had for years (and expires in April 2027) has been telling me for two days I don’t have it. If I click to reactivate, it lets me know I have it already. Then it spins forever and never lets me use my premium features. This is two days now and two tickets put in and no one is helping me or responding to my tickets and I’m getting super frustrated. I’ve deleted the…” — ★☆☆☆☆“Rip off — Every time they update this pathetic app they mess up paid subscriptions and try to get you to purchase them again!! My paid premium subscription is valid until May 2027 but when I go to use it the app says I need to pay for premium again!! Apple Store needs to delete them from the site !!” — ★☆☆☆☆“Waste of money — I am paying 19.99 per month for premium and out of no where the app refuses to acknowledge that.” — ★☆☆☆☆
