My Paleo Tracker - primal & low carb diet counter

Does not work with Fitbit unless you buy an additional 3rd party app     Do not buy premium

The intention is great with a few adjustments the app could be really strong 1 There is no explanation of their Paleo Score or Paleo Score by Calories You can eat 100 Paleo foods for the day and can end up with a Score by Calories of 70 At a minimum the app needs to publish an explanation of how these scores are calculated Without this explanation the Paleo Score is an arbitrary number and not helpful in providing insights and helping people optimize their food choices 2 Food logging is bulky navigation is not intuitive Users should have the ability to log foods from the Daily Log screen        Not intuitive needs PaleoScore explanation

I love that so many homemade foods and brands of foods I buy like the exact brand of sardines and FCLO are already plugged into the food database There have only been a few custom food items Ive added after a month of using the app Suggestions to improve user experience The navigation approach causes me a lot of back and forth Simplify it and figure out something far more intuitive Updating and refreshing are jerky and slow and the app crashes sometimes and returns to my iPhone 6 Plus home screen The app freezes at other times and I have to shut it down and go find my place again I think overall its a really good app worth what I paid to unlock the nutritional analysis I love that it lets me revise the daily intake reference values because I believe the USRDA values are pretty useless for helping me with my health Keep up the improvementsI know you will              Works Very Well A Few Suggestions

Admittedly Ive had the app for 20 minutes and I can already tell you why it deserves two stars 1 It takes you to an overview screen which has no button to log food items You have to navigate through a series of menus to log food This is silly as its a logging app there need to be clear navigational options from the start page 2 When navigating said menus once you select something it stays on the menu and you have to hit the right side of the screen in just the right place to go where you told it to go in the first place Unintuitive and annoying 3 What is marked as paleo or not paleo is mildly arbitrary Im not sure what rules they are usingI use a frozen bag of bell peppers and onions NOTHING ELSE ADDED and its labelled not paleo Huh Okayits vegetables Cream cheese and butter are marked as paleo for those that include such items in their diet It wont count against your PaleoScore for the day However if you indulge in such a thing as a potato it is not paleo Seems like there ought to be a yellow somewhat paleo flag for controversial items 4 It seems to access some more useful features like logging body measurements they want you to spend 120 a year I just paid 3 for the app and I feel like everywhere I click its asking me to upgrade Really That just pisses me off I understand it for something more advanced but logging body measurements Really MyFitnessPal is a free app and allows you to do all of that for free They may not have a fancy PaleoScore but honestly the way its calculated is seeing what percentage of calories you eat are from paleo sources That COULD be very useful but right now it feels like a ripoff All this being said the database seems to have a good amount of commercially available food items but the search feature needs a lot of hand holding If I type in bell pepper nothing came up I had to type red pepper Thats kind of dumb Still looking for a better paleo food tracking appbut right now MyFitnessPal is looking pretty good still Perhaps these app makers will take my critique to heart For now do not waste your 3 like I did        Still Has A Long Ways To Go
