Ratings and reviews

Decided to try this because it was available via a work health program. The food serving sizes seem odd and difficult. I had to take a break off of this due to some personal issues and when I was going to get back into it, there was like no way to reset the program. Anyhow, I was going to get back to it and try it again now that I've kind of reset some habits, but it has my account set to sync via Facebook and it says the developer knows it's an issues. It won't let me log in any other way.

Annoying as hell. I like the scale, and some of the info the "coach" provides is interesting and useful, but the food is never right when I try to enter meals - the AI clearly has a very limited ingredient database that feels incredibly stupid, especially if you're already using another app to track food more accurately (such as Fitbit or in my case, MyFitnessPal)... Why can't we just sync ALL that info? It would save so much more time.

After one year of using this app.The app is good overall but still has a long way to go. They are on the right track with the app. But it is slow loading the missions sometimes it doubles them. My dashboard says I am on mission 14 but I am actually on mission 20 second time around. After a year the AI gets boring. Same things over and over. I can anticipate what the next response will be. It helps develop good habits if you can endure the lag. If insurance didn't pay for it. I would not use it.
