Ratings and reviews

I've been using this app for the past 6 years, and it has always been great. But I just updated the app today, and with the addition of the new "streaks" header on top that you can't hide, it's apparently lost all of my food diary history outside of the past 6 months! I used to be able to go back to any year/month/day on the calendar to see my calories consumed, but apparently all of that data now shows up as no calories cataloged for any day I click on. If it ain't broke, don't fix it 🤷🏻‍♂️

I am using this app since 2010. It was a good app at the time. But over the years it has been replaced by better apps. This app hasn't kept itself up to the modern design and user experience standards. Its databsee, which is essentially crowdsourced with no checks, is not very reliable now, it also has too many duplicate entries with wrong nutritional information. Since I have lots of old data in it so I am for now stuck with it but would like to see an option to export my data and move on.

Used to love this and have been using it for a few years. Recently though it has been "improved." With all the unneeded and unwelcome info added to the main screen, there is less than a third of my screen available to interact with the app. So I'm looking for an alternative. Maybe ok if you only use a tablet not a phone screen.
