1. 4/5Excellent app!

   Edited for 29th Oct 2014 update: It seems like the update has ruined the search-as-you-type function such that it doesn't allow you to find common foods anymore. To solve this, you need to turn off the search-as-you-type function and all will be fixed. You can find this under settings. This will solve the problem of being unable to find regular foods. My biggest problem with the new version is that it now looks wonky on my screen as opposed to the way it was before. But I'll keep using this for the functionality and because I have 5 years of data on it. Sure it's not as fancy as MFP or Lose It, and sure it could do with updates to the food database at least once a year, but it's pretty solid and works offline and generates cool graphs and trend data. Old Review: I use this app daily to monitor my calorie intake, weight, and exercise activity. It's also a great mobile calorie count app because on the iPod Touch, it works offline i.e. Doesn't require a wifi hotspot. The calorie count library is pretty extensive but there's always room for growth. I've had this app for about 2 years now and I can say that the developpers have updated it a lot since then and added more foods and menu items to the library and generally improved the app. So I am ever hopeful that they continue to do so. But this is an awesome app, better than most of the others available (I've had like 3 including Lose It, so I'm not just saying so)...

2. 2/5Great app, could use a few features

   Update: I downgraded my rating because the search function no longer works and the fix that another reviewer mentioned does not fix it. Really annoying to have to thumb-type every single entry. Browsing works but the database is extremely limited. I use this app often to keep track of carbs and calories and protein. It's a great app. It would be better if I could scan items and if I could import food nutrition from another app. Lately, my food search started coming up 0, even for common foods. Someone here commented on how to fix that so I'll try. The database still needs updating. I couldn't find any nutrisystem foods or protein drinks. But it does give you a chance to manually enter. That is why a scanning feature would be good -- the database could automatically be updated accurately.

3. 5/5Previously over weight person

   OK. Now I'll rate it at a five again. Now that they fixed the "update". I'll be more careful about when I hit update in future. This is the best calorie counter. Only concern is they might be giving too many burned calories for exercices. After all you burn calories doing nothing and you burn more when you exercise but you have to subtract the doing nothing ones from the exercise ones and I don't think they do it in the app, so you end up giving yourself more credit for exercices than you really earned, double dipping so to speak, and if you eat up to calories burned you could hose yourself on weight loss. I count lowest effort and only credit myself half. I asked once but did not get clear answer about it which is why I don't think they subtract resting calories you'd use anyway from exercise calories. Otherwise I love it.

4. 5/5Best app out there!!

   Update 2 yrs later: In total I lost 65 lbs while using this app. I've gained 20lbs back so I'm using it again. I love this app. So helpful in keeping track. Update: I have been using the app since January and so far I have lost 34 lbs. This app let's me look at what a restaurant has and the calorie count BEFORE I get there. This allows me make a smart decision about my meal instead of getting carried away with something that looks good on the menu. I truly think this is the best app out there. You can build recipes and add items not listed very easily. I recommend it to all of my friends who are looking to lose weight or just maintain. This app is MUCH better than the free ones you can find!! I wish you could separate the portions differently but so far I've lost 10lbs. It helps keep me from snacking b/c I can see how many cals I have left for the day.

5. 3/5Long time user for over 15 years - Not a fan of the new version.

   I’ve been using this app for over 15 years. I used it for the first few years I had it and then I’ve used it daily for almost two years. I do not like the functionality of the new version. I understand making the app appear more updated, however, the functionality of the app is extremely hard and confusing. I’ve always recommended this app to everyone who’s asked me about a good tracking app. However, I can no longer do that. This app is confusing and is not easy to navigate, as its older version was. A lot of the restaurants that were in the older version are hard to find in this new version and may not even exist. Also, the portion sizes are much more confusing. Whereas the old app would tell you in the description if a slice of pizza was from a medium size pizza or a large size pizza at your favorite restaurant chain. I wish the creators would go back to the layout of the old app when it comes to the menu screens and searching for types of food. I’ll hold on for a little while longer to give them time to change things, but if things don’t change soon, I’ll be looking for a new tracking app.
