3★The first week is really misleading--ads get a LOT worse after. I like the big plus button at the bottom center and that it syncs with Samsung Health. it's a little frustrating that I can't fix incorrect nutrition myself, but they seem to be responsive when changes are requested so 🤷 I don't love how items appear in the search but I'm dealing with it.

5★This is the best calorie counting app I’ve found so far. I downloaded five different apps to see which one suits me best, and this one clearly stands out. Accuracy is the most important factor for me, and this app lets me log the exact weight of what I eat. Other apps require choosing preset portions, which forces me to do extra math. I also haven’t experienced the excessive ads that some users have mentioned, therefore I assumed they fixed the issue. Highly recommended.

5★Just got it yesterday. I love the UI - it feels more approachable than other apps, as someone who wants to keep track of her goals with more focus on nutrition and well-being and not have overwhelming calorie tracking; this strikes a good balance. Trying it for free and hoping to love it so much I pay for the premium version. Right now the home screen widget doesn't automatically refresh for a new day so I have to delete and add the widget to refresh the net cals for the day!

5★I've been using the app for about 2 months and I love it so far! I dreaded the idea of calorie counting before but I find that I don't mind it at all thanks to the convenient features Cronometer has like barcode scanning, and the ability to copy meals from previous days. I've lost 5 lbs so far just being more aware of portion sizes! I would probably invest in Gold for the recipe import feature if there was a choice to buy it for life for a reasonable price. But I'm not a fan of subscriptions.

2★Very frustrated with the new ads system. I've been using this app for over a year and loved it. Suddenly I'm getting ads every time I open the app. The ads are loud, disruptive and so frustrating, makes me want to throw my phone. I am considering finding another app. I notice that several people are commenting about this and the responses claim it's a bug that they figured out, yet I'm still getting the ads... :(
