Lifesum Food Tracker & Fasting Reviews

More than I hoped for!

Taking the time to explore a little I have found the free version of this app to be amazing! Initially I was looking for a macro counter. I’ve used My Fitness Pal a little but found Lifesum to be so much more user friendly. You can choose your eating lifestyle (I hate to say diet. Because it should be a forever lifestyle) and change it at any time if need be. Within that “diet” there are so many recipes. Recipes that you can tag as “saved” and there’s a saved area within your personal profile for easy access. I’ve allowed notifications to remind me to do things. Weight is one. Doesn’t sound exciting but actually watching the graph change as I go has actually been a visual motivator! Logging your meals is super easy. I can go on and on. The lifestyle I’ve chosen is Ketogenic Strict. Just awesome. Can’t imagine what the premium version offers!

User friendly!

I think this will help me keep track of my cals. It’s a great app and I like the layout better than fitness pal. Also like that it works on my Apple Watch. I understand ya gotta make $$. But I can’t afford the monthly price, maybe when I win the lottery. Ha!

The nutritional info doesn’t calculate correctly.

The nutritional information does not calculate correctly for most foods. For example the grams of carbs will say 10 sugar 11 fiber but the total carbs is 71g. This has happened for most of the food I have entered. Then the daily totals are incorrect and overall this app is not doing what is designed to do, so I end up manually calculating my daily totals.

No support

This app is okay the premium is not worth it. I got the premium version a year ago at discounted rate then no one informed me about my upcoming $45 renewal charge that just occurred. I have tried to contact multiple times to cancel and be refunded however, I just keep receiving responses that there are longer wait times but it’s been several DAYS. I am extremely dissapointed with the lack of customer service.

Misleading subscription

The subscription information is extremely misleading. It shows what you will be paying every month, but charges you in full for the year! There’s also very little vegetarian options. I cancelled the subscription without 2 minutes and emailed customer support for a refund, however they take an extremely long time to answer emails.

Love the app but have suggestions

I have been using the app for about a week and I have a few minor suggestions. I don’t think the way to custom add a food is very intuitive. From a good UX perspective I think it would be helpful to have the option to custom add a food on the screen where you can search and add recent food. That is where I would expect to find this feature - a fellow mobile app developer

I have been active my entire life and never had an issue with weight...until that life change and age :( Slowly weight kept creeping up on me and no matter what I did I would continue to gain. :):):):):):) Enter Lifesum :) :):):):):) I cannot thank you enough for designing this amazing app. It’s simplicity is perfect for me and I am much more cognizant of where I’ve been and where and how I am going to meet my overall goal. The ability to keep track of EXACTLY what I eat has been just the ticket for me. I love that I can add foods and exercise then save to my favorites. I am losing and feeling better every day :) Lifesum keeps me motivated, especially through the set backs! Thank You So Much!!!

Misleading

A lot of calorie information in the database is incorrect. For example, under whole milk, a cup has 21 calories and a tablespoon has 308 calories. Makes me doubt everything in the database. I don’t always have a barcode to scan so the search results need to be accurate and they are not.

Love, but

Wow, what an easy app to use. I do have the paid version. This is one of many tracking apps I’ve used before, but this is the first I loved so much that I paid for the premium version. I love the idea of the plans, BUT, I so, so wish I could swap out a single ingredient in each recipe. I follow a vegan diet, but the plan offered for vegans is very limited. Instead, I like to follow other plans, but swap out proteins or cheeses for vegan options. I would LOVE to see an option where I can go into each recipe and swap these out rather than having to fill in the whole recipe myself just because of one substitution. This would also help when making sure I’m getting as much protein/calories as the meat option would have. Please add this feature; it would help the app become more vegan-friendly!

Charged me and took my money but app says I’m not subscribed

They charged me $44 and it says I’m subscribed but the app itself is saying I’m not subscribed and can’t use any of the features until I subscribe. This is very unprofessional to be categorized as an editors choice. Avoid!!!
