Ratings and reviews

Compared to my "Well" health app, along with my "Samsung health" app, I find this app very cumbersome. Rather than being able to type in a response in the chat feature, it provides a response that you're supposed to send, even if you want to respond differently. You're given no choice! And I can't hook up my Samsung watch to get my steps recorded. All in all, they have a ways to go with this app!

I find the logging and tracking of activities to be useful, in that it's a good reminder of all the things I'm doing either right or wrong. With all of the good data available out there, I'm dismayed the accuracy of the nutrition values of foods. For instance, lentils do not seem to be reflected accurately for fiber intake and sorghum is a whole grain that receives no credit in that category. Also, since I don't measure things in grams it would be really nice to have an alternative measure.

I received information about Lark through one of the games on my phone, I took the quiz and qualified for the prevent diabetes program. I received a free scale on my front porch the very next day. The app is easy to use but it is completely AI. I can not type answers to questions, logging food is difficult because you have to type everything in, no ability to scan labels.
