Ratings and reviews

I've been using Lark for a while, and while it’s helpful, there are some areas for improvement. The AI's responses are predictable when entering information, and it doesn't allow responses in my own words, which is frustrating. Adding a barcode scanning feature for food entries would enhance accuracy and convenience, as the AI's guesses are often inaccurate. Additionally, the ability to edit information immediately after entering it, similar to Fitbit, would greatly improve the user experience.

I am happy with this app, however there a few things that could use some tweaking. For instance, the only health tracker it seems to sync to is Fitbit. I do not use a fitbit, nor am I going to purchase one. I have a Galaxy Frontier 5 watch. I even downloaded the Google health app and attempted to sync it to the lark app, with no results. I have to manually input my sleep and exercise, which with my memory, is inaccurate. The meal tracker needs to be less generic in the input ability.

Food logging is not accurate as it does not give you portion amounts. Sleep is always inaccurate, I am always off by two hours even tho it pulls from my Fitbit. As far as weight logging.. I have logged it 3 times thus far in 3 weeks, but in the app it shows as 6x each time I logged!! Some of the entries are quadruple my actual body weight! Lol
