  • Difficult to edit meals

    I like the concept but I’ve tried to edit the content of two meals and it is not user friendly. One I had to type in several times before it was correct, and I still can’t correct the second one.
  • Questionable accuracy

    The app doesn’t seem to be able to factor portion size very well. I did some test with my pizza recipe. The first gave me a GL of 25 solely because of the refined dough. So I dropped the amount of dough in the recipe, but the GL didn’t change. It gave me the same GL when I entered 54g of dough, when I entered 0.5g of dough, and even when I entered 0g of dough. I also tested it by entering a ridiculously high amount of tomatoes (500g). That also didn’t change the result. Then when I looked at the nutritional info, that just didn’t make sense. My pizza with 54g dough was listed as having 280 calories. The one with 0.5g was listed as 250 calories. I’m pretty sure 54g of refined bread dough has more than 30 calories. There are other glitches too, like when you scan a box of crackers, the app thinks you are going to eat the whole box. And sometimes you get nonsensical results- 20g of tomato basil wheat thins has a higher GL than 30g? I just don’t trust the information I get. Plus it is t super easy to use. You can’t go back and edit any of the recipes or manually entered meals. You have to do an entirely new entry. And you can’t even copy the previous entry. And when you ask the AI something (ex- add a salad to my meal) it will tell you something (ex- yes, that will drop the glycemic load) but it won’t recalculate the meal. Honestly, you can’t get the same info from google

    I simply wanted an app that could quickly search and identify glycemic index of various foods. This stupid thing required an extensive set up of a profile that I was not interested in. I never even got to a state where I could search for glycemic information.

    This app would be 5 stars if the search would work, I search for an egg & the results are every food cooked with eggs but not a simple egg, searched for an apple, again, every meal that contains apples yet it won’t find just a simple apple alone

    I love the idea of this but the execution is horrible. There are many missing GL number, the pictures are horrible and the meals it gives you would starve even the hardcore calorie counter (not realistic). Disappointed.
