Pointless.

You look at a handful of regular pics that are 200 calories..which in itself is boring. If I want to know how many calories something is, I can read a label. Plus, not every bagel, corn cereal you come across is 200 calories. It differs depending on the brand. After looking at a handful of pictures (maybe 6???) they want to charge you $2.99 to look at more pics? Hahaha....no thanks.


Bigger database please!

I really love the idea of this ap. I think it will really help me track calories at a glance and learn what correct portion sizes are. This will only be true if it has a much bigger database of foods.


Good app

Wow! I have never seen more complainers commenting on an app. This is a very simple straightforward app. It has photos of some foods showing what a portion of 200 calories is. It doesn't purport to be much else. And contrary to what many people are saying here in these comments, you can easily switch between metric and imperial (milligrams/ounces). I purchased the full app and have easily gotten my moneys worth. Are the portions perfect? Maybe not, but they do give you a good overview of where you can go wrong with 200 cal. And that's really what this app is all about. Giving you a better sense of what eating half a cupcake gives you and what eating a plate full of tomatoes give you. All the pictures are right next to each other so it's easy to compare them. I think it's a great app for what it does. Can you find the information elsewhere? Sure. I can also find the CIA world fact book elsewhere, a dictionary, WebMD and much other information. But I want I'm on my phone. The thing that's great about this app is you can download it and look at a ton (about half) of photos without purchasing anything. If you don't like it delete it. I suggest you download the app and see for yourself if you get anything out of it. If not delete it, if you do then support the developer.

I love this app. For the style and many stuff, it would be 5 stars. But it can grow further. And can you add Chinese cousins too?


It is what it is...

The concept is simple. Pictures show you how much 200 calories are for various foods. Makes your "guesstimate" a little more accurate.


Seriously?

What a ruse! There were hardly any photos. Very disappointing...


Very disappointed

SierraFE

I'm very disappointed with this app. I payed $2 for absolutely no variety of food. I was so excited to use this app as a reference guide for food portions and to help me with over eating, but anytime I search a certain type of food its 9/10 not there. I've also had this app for a little while now and they still have yet to update the food selection.


Buggy!

I can't even buy the rest of the pictures! There's a bug that greys out the keyboard when I try and purchase the other images, by preventing me from entering the password to my iTunes account.


Not bad but. . . .

I would pay to have the ability to change the calorie count! 200 calories is not a motivator. People need to see their 2000 calorie meals!!

I too cannot purchase pictures. The search screen takes over the iTunes pop up.
