I have been trying to use this app for almost a week. I've continually gotten dropped entries. Worst was today. After carefully recording every thing I've eaten, I go to record my lunch and all my entries for the last 24 hours have disappeared. Additionally I got dropped entries when I was trying to learn the app. Whenever I changed anything about my plan details it would wipe out all my entries. I would actually pay for this app but if it isn't keeping track, I might as well write it on paper.
Reviews for Healthi: Weight Loss, Diet App
← Back to Healthi: Weight Loss, Diet AppI haven't gotten into the actual dieting of the program. My review is strictly for the app. I was hoping for more customizable meal plans. I would like to be able to easily replace a meal that I do not wish to use. Plans offered are for a short amount to time. Making my own plan is time consuming. Recipe search resets Everytime you click a recipe and go back out. Many recipes missing ingredients or are just wrong. A cookie recipe that list round steak as an ingredient?
Overall good app. Easy to use. My only complaint is it's not accurate when tracking calories. It's off tracking calories for example a bag of chips will day it's 160 but app only has it for 130 calories. I will continue to use this because it makes you more aware of how much you eat and what you're eating which motivates me to make healthier choices. So far I haven't had annoying adds or other usual app issues.
The odds of successfully adding a recipe without getting an error and losing your work are about 50/50. If that functionality matters to you, don't bother paying for this app, you will not get your money's worth. I also can't join the community because it requires a photo, and it won't let me upload one even though I have permissions turned on.
You track my weight in pounds but I have to track my food in metric? I'm older, I don't do metric, an app that doesn't offer a choice doesn't save me time and becomes a "drag" rather than a convenience. If the alternative is available, it should be easier to find. Having to point this out has taken time from me I could have spent doing something more enjoyable
I only have had this app for 4 days. Hard to get use to at first but now I'm getting it down. So close to weight watchers only much cheaper. I paid the 35.00 for the year to have more access to other stuff like the community group. Love going in and hearing others success stories. Very motivating. Once you figure the app out it is wonderful. This app will definitely help me on my weight loss journey.
Easy to use, with lots of great tools to track food, exercise, and other healthy habit details. Not giving 5 stars because the Pro version is only available once you pay for a whole year - no trial or monthly options to see how it works. Honestly, I think they're hurting themselves by not letting people see how the Pro version works.
Like the app but can't get in. I forgot my password. Despite numerous tries, I don't get an email to allow me to reset the password. I've noticed that the message says you "may" not "will" get an email to reset. I found no way to contact you. Is this because I'm not a paying customer? I've never seen a problem like this. My rating is only 3 stars because of this problem.
Ever since the most recent update, the app does not track macros (other than calories) accurately. When toggling the serving of each entry, it will track one standard serving regardless of the serving you entered. If you track more or less than one serving, it will only track the macros (other than calories) for one serving. I was told that the fix should be coming with the next update, but no ETA on when that will happen! This isn't the product I paid for.
As a former weightwatchers user, I'm very impressed by how well this app compares to the WW app, at a fraction of the price. I'm using the free version alone and have been impressed by the number of features and customizability. The quality of the scanner and calculator alone make it a great download, as these were some of the weaker points of the WW app, in my opinion. Now, if the app could connect with other fitness trackers and maybe even Go365? It would be only even better.
Update: I downloaded the update which was supposed to fix the bug. It's better but not all features are working properly. I can't create a recipe or add food from restaurants. I signed up for Healthi on March 15th and paid for the Pro. Less then 2 weeks later they did an update and I can't use many of the features. The only way I could track my food was to scan it or use the microphone. Today, those aren't working. I get a 502 error. Is this app always this glitchy? I'm not impressed.
Terrible. This is the worst food tracking app I've used so far. In the free version you can only track calories or points (WW) which they call bites. You can't follow or add friends which was the whole point of me trying this app. I created a group for us so I could even find them and now that we have our own private group we can't do anything. No posting in our group and the only thing I can see is their weight. Creating a recipe? Nope. Macros? Def not. I recommend carb manager.
Overall I like the app, but the biggest gripe I have is that I can't manually enter in the number of oz, grams, cups, etc. You have to scroll, and when you weigh food in grams like I do, that can be super tedious when a piece of lasagna is 400g. I'd also love the ability to add decimal points to serving sizes, since the majority of what I weigh in oz ends with a decimal point and not a zero. I would just like to know I'm getting the most accurate tracking. Those changes would make a 5 star app.
I've been a big fan of this app until this last update on 3/19/24. It's made it impossible for me to accurately track my calories due to app not changing calorie counts for varying portion sizes. Also it's now a 2 step process instead of one step to track a zero bite food if it's not already marked as zero bites. It used to be an easy quick tracking option but seems to be getting more complicated. I would recommend the app if they work out the links but would not recommend as is currently.
When I try to log food, the app crashes. Unusable at this point. Will happily give it 5 stars though if a fix is released soon. It's a great app when it works properly. Was using the Pro version for only a short time before the crashing started. If someone from Healthi replies to this, could we get an estimate for when the update with fixes may be released, please? I do have an "older" Android because I refuse to upgrade every other year. Running Android 10.
I've been using this app for years. It used to be so great! And now it is so glitchy it's not even worth it. If I'd have realized how bad it was before I renewed again, I wouldn't have. It constantly crashes to the point you can't search or create anything. I'm also having issues searching for what should be really simple, like "boneless skinless chicken breast." It doesn't have accurate counts unless you find a specific brand, like Marketside.
20lbs in two months. Finally a diet that works. Buggy, but for the price, it works! *update 1-19= after update, they now charge $34 a year for pro and REMOVED much of the content in the free version and paid add ons. I would have paid a flat rate similar to before, but not that much, and annually! and to change the app so it no longer has the same stuff? they completely changed the pricing structure from what it was. they are crooks. they will no longer get my business.
I had got the paid subscription 3 years Ago, I didn't really use the app much, I thought my subscription was over because the pro logo was gone, so I assumed I canceled it. They Charged me for another 2 years. When I tried to get a refund for the latest year, I sent an email and no one has contacted me. Don't get the PRO service. IT'S HARD TO UNSUBSCRIBE!!! Update they responded I did get a refund.
Tap + to add a food, get a "Search" screen, tap on search bar loads a "Results" screen with another search bar. "Results" does NOT show results, but a search history. Have to tap Cancel (so it should be labelled Search) to see search results. Cancel means to cancel, not do a search. After EVERY food add, app loads Facebook login page blocking use of app. Don't have a Facebook acct, won't get one. Free version is spamware, crippleware, baitware, and interferes with use until you pay. Uninstalled.
App update broke everything 3/31. Search for food is messed up. When you search for food it seems to just show you the most recent 30 foods (which weren't actually my last 30..some were from years ago) I found if you scroll way down you will eventually find your search results. I had to hit track several times as it was a hit or miss whether it would register in my meal tracking. The Voice Tracking also seems to have gone awry. I reported the problem and was told I just needed to update my app
