1. [R3] BitePal 3/5 · US Not quite what I expected: Honestly, I would’ve been better off just staying with a free version. I’ve seen so many reviews and videos on this and thought it was the way to go. Thinking that this is an AI app I figured it would be over the top with help figuring all the nutrition for foods and boy was I wrong. Unless you’re actually scanning the label which is a nice option you’re not gonna get ac
2. [R12] BitePal 3/5 · US Cute but not accurate: I do enjoy the cute animations of the app however 90% of the time I enter a meal (whether I type it exactly as the branded label or take a picture of the product) the AI is very much off regarding the Calories / protein / fat. Most of the time I spend editing this stuff. If the AI was better I would give the app a 5
3. [R15] BitePal 3/5 · US Lacks accuracy: Pricey for one. After that, the biggest flaw is the calorie estimation. I’ve used a few different apps in the past. The best of them allow you to scan a product barcode for more accurate calorie tracking. This app can be off by as much as 50-75 calories on some foods. This could translate to too great of a calorie deficit. If you’re okay with estimation, go for it. If you don’t wan
4. [R70] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 2/5 · US Great UI, Bad UX: I really like the interface. It's modern, clean, and enjoyable to use. Unfortunately, that's where most of the positives end. The app is too restrictive. I can't customize the number of meals, I can't log meal times, and I can't turn off the AI tips. The AI advice pops up after almost every meal, is usually very generic, and quickly becomes annoying. The intermittent fasting fe
5. [R52] BitePal 1/5 · US Crashes almost daily: I just downloaded this app less than 6 days ago and almost every single day it crashes, I have to delete it and redownload it and hope that it will eventually allow me to enter my email and get back into my account. Don’t advertise this app on big websites if you aren’t able to support the amount of people that want to try it. I really like it and wish it workers like it was
6. [R55] BitePal 1/5 · US App Won’t Recognize My Paid Subscription After Phone Switch, No Response from Support: After switching phones, the app no longer recognizes my paid annual subscription. I’ve emailed support, the only contact option provided, more than 10 times with no response, and I still can’t get the app working. When it does work, the app itself is fine; the problem is entirely with account/subscription access
7. [R75] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 3/5 · US Very unreliable: The app is okay overall, but it's very unreliable, sometimes it complains about missing Internet connection, sometimes its AI "takes a break", and once in a while it would not start at all. It might be acceptable for a social media app, but a tracker that you're supposed to use at every meal loses its purpose if you can't actually use it.
8. [R90] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 3/5 · US Really liked it at first, now it won’t open: I’ve been using this app for about two weeks and I really liked it however now it won’t load. I’ve tried everything from resetting my network settings to updating the app to even deleting and reinstalling the app. Nothing seems to be working. Really disappointing.
9. [R1] BitePal 1/5 · US SCAM: This app is a scam. I signed up for a free trial, decided I did not like it and canceled the subscription, and it wouldn’t even recognize my email as having an account afterward. However, for two months I have still been getting two $9.99 charges to my card from Bitepal. I went through hoops trying to cancel it and they told me to cancel through Apple. I talked to Apple Support and we both c
10. [R4] BitePal 1/5 · US Scam subscription BEWARE!: Beware this app does nothing special but charge you lots of money(not through Apple) in hopes to get more money off you!
11. [R19] BitePal 1/5 · US very badl: This app is a total rip-off; they charge you up to three times a week. I bought the app for my kids, and they were charging me up to $30 a week from my bank, when I was only supposed to pay $30 a year. I don't recommend it.
12. [R67] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 1/5 · US 1 star: The app logged me out and wiped all my progress, including my 200-day streak. This is unacceptable. Months of tracking gone. Very disappointing. 1 star.
13. [R49] BitePal 2/5 · US Don’t waste your money.: The AI isn’t very accurate so you end up typing it in anyway. It wasn’t motivating to me. You’re better off using a free tracker. The price for a year is reasonable so I don’t feel out a large sum of money. The ads make it seem like the raccoon character does something to motivate you but it really doesn’t. Just my two cents.
14. [R106] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 2/5 · US Pro Option Not Worth The Price!: I have had this app for a few years now and it seems to consistently get worse. The features on here are so basic that the app should be free. I will not be renewing my subscription as they keep taking key features away like being able to see the chart of your weight loss progress. That is something that basic on most apps. The daily diamonds feature does not work
15. [R107] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 5/5 · US Best Tracking App: Been using this app for years now and have never felt like I needed to switch. Works great. Every once in a while you can lock in an offer for the pro for $12/year for life (would highly recommend). The AI camera is really only useful if you absolutely need it. In my experience it is usually accurate within 10-20% of the actual calories. I would not recommend using the AI fo
16. [R118] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 1/5 · US Suck: Customer support is horrible
17. [R119] AI Calorie Tracker by Yazio 5/5 · US Was great but now it won’t open: I like the AI camera tracking but as of this morning, it hangs at the opening screen forever and never opens. Not happy that I paid for this. ******UPDATE****** The developer not only addressed the issue but also contacted me to let me know. I am very happy with the app support and love the app again 😎
