Does NOT track macronutrients or vitamins, just calories!
I bought this hoping for a cheap alternative to the "Perfect Diet Tracker" or another app that will keep track of not just calories, but how much fibre, sugar, fat, vitamins etc. Im getting. At first it seemed great and I was amazed at how easily I was getting my daily recommended intake of fibre, good fats, and vitamins (and also how crazily high my sodium intake apparently was!). Then I noticed the problem.
When you first select a food to add, it automatically adds 100g of it. Then if you change that to say 10g, it changes the calories appropriately, but leaves everything else at the same amount it was for 100g! So you think that youre getting totally different amounts than you are! Only your daily totals for calories are going to be correct, everything else will be wrong.
I liked that you could change the RDA values, although there seems to be a formatting problem with that function so that the window is too long and I cant see or change the values at the bottom.
The ratio graphs that apparently make it easier to track your ratios arent labelled or explained anywhere.
The database has a lot of items, but I think the search function could be improved so for instance when you search "banana", actual bananas comee first and then everything else, like every type of banana pudding known to mankind.
It would also be nice if, when the database doesnt have a food, and you have the nutritional information yourself, there was some way to enter that information anyway. It would also be nice if, when you have a recipe you make often, you could you could store the whole recipes information instead of having to enter each ingredient every time.
