- [R2] WeightWatchers Program Returnee: I’m eating better than I have in years and having some good returns. Access to meetings and workouts online are a boon ☺️
- [R11] WeightWatchers Program Great way to easy weight loss: Found the app an easy way to monitor food intake, activity. I am accountable to myself and found it very easy to use.
- [R15] WeightWatchers Program Love this app: This makes tracking so easy. A person can add recipes/foods as well as search for restaurants.
- [R17] WeightWatchers Program Love the New WW app!: I love this app! Thanks to WW all my blood work is in perfect range. I love to look and make sure I am eating healthy through the new macros that was added. I am using the maintenance app and love it. Please don’t change a thing. For the other all in app put the points back on for them and I think they will like it. Thanks Earlene. I love all
- [R1] WeightWatchers Program Don’t like new app: Too much on the app now. Seems more time consuming tracking.
- [R3] WeightWatchers Program Where are the points: Knowing the points is key to WW so why now on foods do you only show protein and fibre and you have to click in it to find points… this is particularly annoying in the dining out page where you want to make wise choices ..
- [R5] WeightWatchers Program Great app: Great app and interface
- [R6] WeightWatchers Program Too complicated and time consuming!: Useful for logging meals, point checking and weight log ins. It’s not for me, too time consuming and could become obsessive.
- [R16] WeightWatchers Program Journey: I have lived the generations of WW programs since 1974. I have always felt I was coming home when I came back after time away. Each revision has refined a realistic plan to be even better. I am enjoying this journey so much and it is working!
- [R18] WeightWatchers Program I love it: I have been following this since June and I went from 230 to 180 so far. I can also watch my macronutrients to see my percentage of daily requirements. My blood pressure is also back to normal and I have better energy. Doesn’t always give me the exact info I want but no apps do. I can usually make do. Looking for points for some brand name or restaurant items that can’t be found.
- [R23] WeightWatchers Program Keeps me honest: I'm glad WW has this iPhone app. It helps me to track my foods and activities fairly easily. Sometimes it shows that I do not have an Internet connection (even tho I do) and I have to track offline. That's the only thing that slows me down. There are great lists of foods and restaurants to help gather point information.
- [R47] WeightWatchers Program Great app: I would rate it 5, but the scanner stopped working. Please fix this as I need it when shopping
- [R13] WeightWatchers Program WW App: Great app, easy to use! Worth the time to tracking and following the results. 👍
- [R34] WeightWatchers Program Love the tracking!: I really love the tracking part of the app! I wish I could sign up for just that part and pay a little less. I don’t use the other parts but the food & weight tracking are way above other apps! Keeps me going! I love the scan food & upload a recipe from the web to get the points. & the database of food. So good!
- [R35] WeightWatchers Program Great application!!!!!!!!! Love it and made me control my appetite!!!!: This application made me control food in a fun way!!!!
- [R38] WeightWatchers Program WW App: Wouldn’t be successful without the app
- [R14] WeightWatchers Program Love this App!!!: Great as a personal helper! Easy to use!This app makes everything easier so I can keep track and be real on what I’m putting in my mouth. Love the WW.
- [R22] WeightWatchers Program I couldn’t stay motivated without this app!: Thank you WW!
- [R24] WeightWatchers Program Love it!!!: I love the WW app it keeps me on track
- [R29] WeightWatchers Program Not Alone: It’s getting started the best part is you don’t have to do it alone. Whenever you feel weak, you can go online and attend a workshop to help support you. But it’s really the encouragement and support you get in the face-to-face meetings.
- [R40] WeightWatchers Program Weight Watchers app.: I love the app. It was easy to get used to and there’s so much helpful information available for everyone. What’s not to like!
- [R69] RP Diet Coach & Planner Good for some: I would’ve liked to have a preview before I paid for the subscription. As much as I like the strength app, the interface for this is busy and unusable and I’d like a refund.
- [R73] RP Diet Coach & Planner Free trial: For something that doesn’t have a free trial, I would expect it to have majority of the calorie scans and also also let you put the correct grams of a food product to the T. For a 100 dollars I think I should of just just went with fitness pal. This app should be honestly attached to the fitness one for these prices. 3 days in using this thing and I honestly would want to get a refund
- [R91] RP Diet Coach & Planner Horrible UI hard to use: I got this as I am starting my cut. Used to use MyFitnessPal but figured I’d try something new. Bought this and immediately regretted it. The UI is terrible and there aren’t any added features compared to other CHEAPER apps. Worst part they don’t even give you a free mode or trial to give it a try before buying. Gotta pay up front and if you like it great but if you don’t
- [R20] WeightWatchers Program A Great Help To Keeping Your Plan On Track: This app is a powerful tool in tracking your progress and helping you reach your weight loss and fitness goals. Easy to use with a huge database of foods, restaurants, and store brands.
- [R26] WeightWatchers Program Shopping assistant: I like the app because while shopping I can scan the products and make choosing easier. And I have dropped close to 40 lbs in about 11 weeks.
