Simple: AI Weight Loss Coach Positive Reviews

Awesome systemTo begin with the most important thing to me was figuring out what foods were healthy choices because I was having a lot of trouble figuring out what was good and what was not so good because all of the information I read was contradictory to each other. I started out strong on the program a few months ago, but due to a medical situation I had to stop fasting for about a month and I had to eat carb heavy foods for a couple of weeks. Now, I am back on the program and I really think that it is something I can do for the rest of my life. Getting back on the program was a little bit harder than starting it, but the AI system encourages baby steps and it counsels you and gives you tips and tricks the whole way through your journey. And I feel much more comfortable with the AI system than I do talking to a person because I have so many questions that if I had a real person, I would feel bad If they were assigned to me because I ask the AI system questions constantly day or night. It even helps me meal plan for my family of six with different dietary needs. I’m even able to tell Avo what I have in my fridge and ask her to give me a recipe for it. The system is much more than a diet or a fasting program. It’s a dietitian, counselor, a coach. Once I lose this weight (because I’m confident that I will. I am receiving the rewards.) I plan to use it to help me LEARN how to maintain my weight as well..AnnaDrummondVersion: 7.8.24

Was more motivating beforeHi makers of Simple! I wanted to share with you that this app was very helpful the first year that I used it. It was the only way for me to lose weight and when I travelled with a group for half a year, I was the only one who could maintain my weight and I felt super proud of that! I renewed my subscription but then 2 months later I got pregnant, so basically I couldn’t fast anymore. I changed it in the settings, that I was pregnant, but that didn’t do anything to the app. No recommendations or anything. I did some very light fasts by myself now and then for health reasons but I basically didn’t use the app for the rest of the year. I did renew the subscription because I was exited to lose the baby weight. But I see the option to say you are pregnant or breastfeeding has disappeared. I know some don’t recommend to do it while nursing but actually a lot of people do light fasting and have a lot of benefits from it without it affecting their milk! But I also see that the interface has changed… I really liked the visual circle of time tracking. It was very encouraging and motivating. Now it’s just a line that doesn’t move… I also liked clicking on pictures of what kind of food you ate and the effect it gave on what articles you get. This disappeared too. Just typing it… but then I don’t feel it does anything for you. I don’t know… I feel it's not as engaging anymore. But I still want to five it 4 stars because the app has helped me so much before!.OunaboellaVersion: 7.5.13

Turned my life AroundI’ve been struggling with weight loss and getting in shape for my entire life. I’d lose weight and gain weight all the time. Less than two years ago I was 240 and I got to 300 and I knew I needed to change but I didn’t know where to start. I downloaded Simple because why not after I got an ad for it and it helped so much. I rarely write reviews for apps or anything but I just want to say thank you. I’ve lost 10 Pounds in the last month. For the first 3-4 weeks, I struggled with building my habits so I didn’t lose as much as I may have wanted but I’ll get there. I’m eating a lot more nutritious foods, have cut out food after 9 PM completely through willpower and convincing myself to not do so, have learned more about how to stay full and motivating myself, am now drinking about a gallon of water a day and that’s amazing, and I’m exercising almost every day getting cardio in paired with the Fitbit I have. All of this is because I recorded this stuff down. And ITS FREE. You don’t need the premium which is the best part. Just to log ur weight, what you eat, when you drink, when you exercise (don’t even need to if you pair a Fitbit), makes a huge difference. Pair that with motivation to do intermittent fasting and I’ve lost 8 pounds in the last week and a half. I’m gonna keep going and I’ll come back to this review and update my progress every 10 pounds. I’m at 290 right now.A.Smith83Version: 6.4.9

Simplicity is keyLike many out there I suffer from analysis paralysis. Nutrition and the human body are fascinating. However, there is so much conflicting information out there. I have a difficult time committing to a lifestyle/diet that may or may not work for me. So far I find the simplicity of the program very helpful! The only changes I have made are the meal versus fasting times and making intentional choices regarding the food and drinks I consume. (For me that means avoiding sugar, not carbohydrates or fiber, and reducing my saturated fats.) I appreciate the value of the information provided, but only when I want to review it. And although I understand the psychological technique being used, I feel encouraged by the positive feedback. I find my relationship with food and eating being nourished in a positive direction. Not being berated for missing tracking a meal or fasting times allows me to pick right back up again. It’s a bit early to determine how well this program will work for my goals. However, I have already seen some weight reduction, I can feel my body composition, changing, and I feel more energized. As far as enhancements to the application are concerned: it would be nice to be able to add protein powder to my morning coffee. Also, to allow me to enter in my dinner meal with a later timestamp for when I expect to complete my meal. Otherwise, I have to go back and edit the timestamp or wait until the end of my meal, which is not always convenient..Jcro007Version: 7.8.21

Helpful tips to become mindful about your health and it’s simple!Simple is pretty intuitive and helpful for me to become more mindful about my health — from caloric intake, hydration, physical exercise, and understanding more about how the nutrients impact my body. While I’ve always done intermittent fasting, I wasn’t doing it optimally enough to yield the result of weight loss. In fact I was gaining and not eating enough because I wasn’t aware of how much time needed to elapse before the fat burning phase started. Also, Simple helps you to understand the right combination of options and nutrients for my desired result. The app allows me to quickly take a photograph to analyze what’s on my plate and either eliminate or add items to make it a more optimal meal before I take a bite. The coaching feature keeps me motivated and sometimes offers recipes to make the meal or snack more interesting for my palate. Even when my days are hectic and I forget to record something, Simple allows me to go back and pick up where I left off. Simple understands and has designed their app to work for people with very full lives to still take bits and quick moments to remain on track. I am far more mindful about my whole body wellness and Simple is affordable. Kudos to those who have started the journey to feeling well and being the best version of yourself. You — we deserve it at any age!.LeadingAge GAVersion: 7.8.35

Great app, but has some issuesI have really benefited from this app. It has made me more aware of my eating habits, as well as making feel accountable to my health. The AI help is, for the most part, is great—providing recipes, food nutritional information, and the like. The articles and other resources are very helpful. However, there are some problems. Because the app doesn’t look at specific nutrients of foods entered, it will make judgments about some things entered without knowing what the truth is. Two examples: I had eaten pizza twice in a week—once the day it was purchased, the second time was leftovers. The app said I had logged “junk food” multiple times. The pizza I buy is carefully selected for its quality of ingredients and would not be considered junk food. Second example was just yesterday: I had a bowl of air-popped popcorn that has three ingredients—popping corn, organic extra virgin coconut oil, and Himalayan pink salt—yet the app flagged this as being high in saturated fat and gave it a low score, despite being high in dietary fiber. I love the simplicity of entering foods generally, but feel like it doesn’t have a full understanding of those foods as a result. I wish there was a way to have the option of including ingredient lists or nutritional information to have a better result. I also wish the app had an option to include more specific macronutrient information rather than the generalized versions included in the app..HmusicVersion: 7.6.39

So far so good on iOSI’m currently using the free trial and have been tinkering with the app and have successfully finished one day of logging food, water intake, and weight loss, etc. I have now started my first fast and I am loving this app. It shows up on the Lock Screen and shows your timer for your fast, it also tells you where your at in your windows for eating depending how many meals you choose to have during your day. Logging food is interesting because your literally just typing what your eating in a paragraph form or even in bullet points like I’m doing. The more details you put the better (like quantity, name of brand,etc) And the AI will interpret what was typed and grade it with a score and give you macronutrient information. I wish the macros were a little more in depth as it only gives percentages. Still I’m not complaining. The chat feature with AI also has been on point with answering my questions really well with great information that’s more then what I even expected (even includes a summary of our conversation at the end). It has not missed a single thing that I have thrown at it. Really excited to finish this trial and see if I should become a subscribed user. Thank you guys for creating a wonderful app to help me create mindful eating habits instead of “winging” it day by day. 🤟🏾😊🙏.RawManna33Version: 7.6.35

After an inauspicious startAfter an inauspicious start, mostly the poor reviews about different screens for different users and phone types, trouble with customer service and getting refunds, being double charged and a few other issues… I have had a remarkably good 33 day experience. I did buy a 3 month subscription at a not unreasonable price, though I canceled so as not to be recharged at the end of my 3 months, July 7 for those who asked. After reviewing the help section and “how to” tips I dove right in. The result was 10 pounds down in that time, better sleep, lost all need to snack, drink water like it’s my job, became more cognizant of what type of food I eat, the list goes on. Of course the app is helpful in reminding me of tasks, offering food suggestions, advising me to switch up eating windows to fit my life rather than never deviating from the strict 16/8. Sometimes I reach 16 other times 17, 18, 20 and my best a 22 hour fast. I never had the calorie counting option some users had and enjoy not being a slave to those numbers. All that being said and being very skeptical about bad (and good) reviews, I will wait and see what transpires at the end of my 3 months. I hope that customer service will improve for those who are dissatisfied and the makers of the app will listen to what the customers want/need in the app. Otherwise the app helps me to do what it says it can and I am happy but watchful..AlbannachLassVersion: 7.5.7

Things I never imaginedI started this on a whim after seeing a social media post of a friend who had decided to try intermittent fasting. Then I saw an ad for simple. I decided to try your app then had serious second thoughts and canceled before I even started. A few days later I decided to use it for the period of time I had already paid for so I wouldn’t feel like I totally wasted that money. Wow! I went all in and with Gods Grace was able to really take advantage of all the information the app provided. The weight started coming off quick. I was impressed. But what I found with those nutritional changes was a new lease on life. I had gone through breast cancer recently and didn’t feel like myself, had really given up on ever feeling normal again. I thought the medication was making me feel the way I did, I was taking ibuprofen by the hands full for body pain. After starting this fasting and mindful eating the inflammation left my body (in3weeks!) and I no longer need to take anything for pain. My pain level is 95% less now at least, just the old age stuff left now (I’m soon to be 55). To date I have lost 42lbs. I started this on 1/6/23 It’s worth every penny, the information provided is priceless. I am so thankful for this app and God for giving me push to continue what I started and prayed for..16gram19Version: 7.5.2

Great App!I just started using this. I didn’t see the option to do the trial, but would have probably ended up committing anyway because I love it so much. Putting money behind my commitment motivates me to stick with it so it’s worth the cost. I have seen zero free apps so it’s silly for people getting on this app for not being free, especially if you have a trial. I think this was really affordable. I agree with a previous review about our body being exhausted, sugar up, etc. It does worry me when I see that but I’m new to this so it’s hard to really judge that. I think there should be more choices for food. Twice I’ve had cereal and don’t know how to record it. For such a common food choice, or even snack choice, I’m surprised to not find that but find seaweed. Maybe add a feature where you can add a food choice to be approved by admin or something. I’m all about details. I don’t know if serving side vs how much you actually eat is important, but I think it is. Portions are important. Maybe add a feature where you can edit or add the food choice and manually enter calories, fiber, carbs, and sugar per serving. Other than dying for more detail with food choices, this app is amazing and I’m so excited to use it and start seeing results! Thank you for such a cool and easy app for beginners along with seasoned fasters!.ARom88Version: 6.4.5

This App is amazing!!I love how interactive this app is! I love the plan it calculates for you personally based off your answers. Omg it’s really cool and now I’m excited to try a different way to lose weight. I’ve been a bigger person all my life. Since a child. So weight has always been a struggle in my life. At age 25 (6 years ago) I lost 120 lbs on my own without a program or any supplements. I changed my diet and counted my calories. I only was eating about 1500 calories or less. I was in the gym like crazy for 8 hours most days. I felt so worn out and exhausted though. I drank lots of water and developed a habit of eating the right foods and only drinking water. It took me about 3 months to lose 80 lbs with this method. Eventually about 7 to 8 months in I was down about 100 lbs and then it got slower. I went through a divorce and child custody battle with my ex wife and it stressed me out so bad to the point where I gave up on losing weight and maintaining the weight loss & routine. Eventually I became to bust with life and rebuilding what I lost to focus on that lifestyle. I gained most of the weight back the last 6 years. Now I’m ready to try again. A different method though. Hopefully Simple can help me lose the weight again but more importantly keep it off this time..KiNGBeezy1124Version: 7.6.9

Awesome AppSince I’ve been using Simple I have been able to see results . I finally figured out my the problem with staying consistent. Using Simple holds you accountable for your actions, You are what you eat is a factual statement. Once I started using Simple it was easy as breathing I look forward to using and communicating with Avo AI everyday. Simple (Avo) keeps me aware of my intake throwout my day and I absolutely love it. It is a very easy app to follow and understand honestly, if we all could just learn to hold ourselves accountable, not just for what we put in our bodies, but for everything throughout life, we can then identify our issues and make positive changes using this app has been a game changer, and I also understand that having a coach that holds you responsible and pushes you helps you to better yourself and stay committed to what we all fall short of, commitment. I hope you all find the results that I have using Simple. For all who still have suspicions, ive used 11 other health apps that just didn’t work for me I’ve lost 4.5 pds in the 1st week and 11pds in 2 wks total. I feel absolutely amazing and proud of myself for this accomplishment. I hope you all have a successful journey using SIMPLE with the assist of AVO! Have a beautiful day!.ChardGlenn45Version: 7.8.21

Great for fastingI’d say this app is OK…it’s great for helping you fast and keep track of it, you can make a flexible fast schedule which I like. I like that you can take a photo of your food and it analyzes it and identifies it. On the other hand, when you try to log certain foods, for example, you put in “zero sugar” it will still say it’s not a good option because it’s high In sugar. As someone that is well aware of what is and what isn’t a healthy balanced diet, it could be frustrating to see it rated as not good. If you try to take a picture of nutritional facts it doesn’t work. So if you were to take a picture of an organic protein bar, it’s not going to know the nutritional facts and assume it’s a candy bar. There are some aspects I think are great and helpful in this app but they need to make some changes. It’s definitely great for those that don’t know much about nutrition, there are little things that will say “you have been logging a lot of meat” for example…and then educate you on the pros and cons. So it’s nice that it doesn’t count calories or nutritional facts…but at the same time, there are times I would rather have that be accounted for. I personally would prefer to find an app that I can do fasting for free rather then pay for this, I don’t find the “coaching” helpful at all. With that said I think it could be helpful for a lot of people. I say it’s worth a shot!.7474758Version: 7.8.18

Very Nice App! Needs a few (small) refinementsThis is fastically friendly well designed intermittent fasting tracker app. Most of the apps in the category are simple timers, useful but who cant read a clock? Simple takes intermittent fasting to the next level with food intake, water intake, exercise and activity monitoring. It also comes with a handy AI chatbot feature thats on demand. After purchasing the app I realized I still had other subscriptions and didnt need this one, but I’ll be back if/when I ever need this type of app again. They also have excellent customer service. A few small things needing improvement: when I reboot my iphone it prompts me to login all over again, this is small annoyance but I wish the app would just open. Also some of the AI notifications take up the entire viewport area and that X in the upper right hand corner cant be reached on an iphone12, its the dead zone with the iphone wifi and battery percentage icons. Either way, instead of tapping an X icon make the tap to close easier. Honestly no real complaints about this app. I gave it a 5 star rating because the helpful reminders to log food, water, and to start fasting are important. Almost like living with a fasting coach. Well done..Not Using Instacart Ever AgainVersion: 7.6.38

The app is working for me!I’m the type that needs to enter and log my day. I’ve done intermittent fasting before, a couple years ago, and lost about 30 lbs before a knee surgery. Was doing it with a different app. Like this app better, it’s a little easier and not so many bells and whistles, which is good for me. I do get irritated as during my fasting I get notices that ask if, “I’m hungry?” Im not, but it’s irritating that I’m asked that🥴I’ve even told Avo that, but the reply is that he-she is sorry, but the prompt continues. Oh well, I will try not to be aggravated. Other than that, the app is working for me. I’ve told friends and family about it. I will continue to use it. One last thing, as far as my bathroom scales go, I have only lost about 5 lbs in this last (about) month that I have been doing the intermittent fasting with this app without fail. Wondering if it’s my bathroom scales??? As all my clothes feel way better! Jeans that wouldn’t snap and zip before the fast, snap and zip without any pressure on my tummy👍😃wow! I’m really happy I found the app and have choose to use it daily. Hopefully either my bathroom scales will get a better attitude or I will buy another and see if they can tell a better tell🥴.Sage Bush SallyVersion: 7.8.18

Some suggestionsFirst, I would like to say that overall the app is easy and encouraging and not very judgmental when starting the journey. I was super excited to lose 7.6 pounds the first full week, and after doing a little research on what my ideal weight should be, decided to change my goal from 145 to 130. Now the app only shows no loss as my new starting weight is what the current weight was at that time. Well, I guess I have hit a plateau for over a week and a half now with only a half pound to show. Psychologically, this is depressing even though I know better. Meals that were in the beginning rated good or optimal sometimes get a lower rating without a good explanation of why. I feel like I might be whining about this, but our minds control our brains which directs the body…. In my mind I am thinking that it’s just really hard for me to lose this weight. Yes, I am walking better and am able to do more than before because I am eating better. But, I am bothered by what the scale tells me. I am keeping my fasts, and I am not eating sugar… and, I know there must be something that I am doing wrong but when I ask the computer, it just throws whatever articles it can find at me. I need to know more about the science of releasing weight from its cellular storage facilities..KetoEagleVersion: 7.8.19

Good tool for serious peopleI use that title for a reason. The app has many very good tools, including: meal/food tracker/evaluator/feddback tools, hydration tracker, exercise tracker (intiegrated with some smart phones/watches/etc.), weight tracker (integrated with some smart scales), and helpful feedback/articles on food logged. The other key to this system is tracking and notifying you of suggested fasting times which is a huge help in this diet process. The reason I say "serious people" above, is that the food tracker/feedback mechanism is based simply on foods entered and does not require or give feedback on you entering food QUANTITY/portion sizes. So, self-control on portion sizes by the dieter is required. But the commitment to enter your meals and to lose weight should compensate for that. And the only other reason I gave only 4 stars is that there are a few times that the food feedback mechanism doesn't understand your entry. So, you have to edit your entry one or more times until the system understands it and so it can properly provide feedback. That can be trying. But overall, this is an easy-to-use and helpful tool to help you manage your diet through better food choices and better use of fasting periods. In the first month, I lost 10 lbs and I intend on using this method for a while..Ceyes007Version: 7.6.27

MotivatesI just started a few days ago. Immediately I began to be more aware of the situation with My health. As soon as I signed up I read everything up to the videos. I had to stop to go to work. I began the program then. Just knowing that Simple is on my phone seems to make me more aware of what I am doing Before I would eat things and not even remember I was trying to help myself through diet. I remember to fast even before my Program tells me to. I admit I haven’t taken time to record my intake however that changes today. My app had 4 reminders when I woke up. I am going through them now. This has helped to change my behavior already. I find myself thinking about how and what I will do to improve myself. I was recently diagnosed with onset diabetes, stage 3 kidney problems and liver problems. I was so overwhelmed I couldn’t get motivated. Just the name Simple got Me to read the initial program. I don’t think I would have even considered it otherwise. What’s in a Name comes to mind. That’s exactly what I needed, Simple, to get Me going I’m not perfect at it by any means But I have Hope and that is exactly what I needed. Extraordinary I must say What’s in a Name. Thank You SIMPLE.Simply HopefulVersion: 7.4.68

Good AppOverall, I really like this app. At first it was really difficult to see how you could get to the workings of the app without subscribing, but if you click enough “x” buttons you eventually get there. I used the app daily for about a month, until the fasting schedule I programmed for myself became habit. It gave some great insights into when I should or should not be eating or snacking, and it really has helped provide the missing boost my body needed to start dropping weight. What I really liked about the app was that it gave you a good idea of the stages your body was in during your fasting period. It provided the extra incentive to see that you were only an hour away from the fat burning stage and if you could continue the fast just a bit longer you’d do better for your body. Also, it was a great reminder that maybe you weren’t hungry but actually bored or thirsty. There were a number of days that I went for a snack, but paused and checked my app first, it suggested that I wouldn’t need food for another hour, so I grabbed a carbonated water instead. I would always end up getting busy and wouldn’t end up snacking for another couple hours or I would skip the snack until it was time for the next meal. Great app for a gentle reminder without being overly detailed and a calorie counter!.KiwigkVersion: 7.3.1

I like the app with some minor reservationsI tried the app then bought a year subscription because I liked having the app on my watch, that works great, and I like the journal feature, I could go back and see what I ate and how long my fast was, as well as if I was drinking enough water, being able to add a picture of your meal is a nice addition. It works great in iPhone and although trying to edit my fasting time if I forgot to hit start or stop has to be done through the edit feature in the journal of my phone, I still really like the features of watch app and journal that I haven’t found as useful in other apps. However after 4 months( 120 fasts and 2556 hrs) I tried to download the app to my iPad, big mistake! It doesn’t work on the iPad, and somehow I wiped out everything I had logged for 4 months when I tried to log in with my iPad. I ended up deleting and restoring the app and have now started over. I may have skipped the step of signing in with Facebook or Apple when I signed in initially, which may be my problem. So yes it’s a really nice app, but sign in with email, Facebook or Apple and save your sign in info so you don’t loose it like I did, and not for iPad..CollierulesVersion: 6.1.4

I’ve only just begunBut what I’ve learned from the AI coach in just a week has been more than I learned in 60 years! That might mean that I had a poor understanding and relationship with food and nutrition, which lead to health issues which in turn lead to my having to restrict most foods from my diet, but SIMPLE has brought me to a point where I can enjoy eating real foods and not just drinking smoothies (that I make from real ingredients) that I thought were nutrient rich but in fact were high in sugar, low in fiber and protein. The AI coach gave helpful insights into making my smoothies more balanced and suggested foods that I could eat with my current health issues and my concerns. It’s very intuitive, I sometimes feel I’m speaking with an actual person! Anyway, I lost 2 lbs in my first week, intermittent fasting has been easy enough, with only one day that I had to break my fast after only 4 hours in because I was starving. I ate a small green apple and logged it at the time I broke fast. I did fine the next day. I’m feeling positive about this experience and I recommend it to anyone looking for the right kind of success and education in eating healthy and becoming more healthy.TouchSmart@2608Version: 7.8.39

Keeping TrackSimple is pretty simple. It’s a place I go to several times a day. I always log the food I’ve eaten, good or bad. I get lots of tips and tricks on how to make my meal or snack plan better. It points me in a the right direction keeping me on track. I enjoy tracking my foods and keeping focused on why I signed up in the first place. I do weigh myself everyday but only track it in the app when I have a weight loss. I set my first goal to lose 100 lbs. In 7 weeks I’ve lost 20.2 lbs. I’m elated with myself! It just took me about 4 days to not crave sugar anymore. I usually fast for 18 hours which gets me a good 6 hours of fat burning time. Around 1:00 PM is my first meal which is a smoothie made with 1 Cup frozen mixed berries, 1/2 banana, a hand full of fresh spinach, 1 scoop of protein powder, 1 scoop collagen powder, a teaspoon of cinnamon, a tablespoon of chia seeds, then 10-16 oz of Dragon Fruit Juice from Costco. Then I will have a regular dinner only eating until I just start to feel full. My snack after is usually a grapefruit. I make herbal iced tea that I drink throughout the day. Im very determined to keep going and be a success story. I feel great and have a lot of energy for being 65 years old..QuickDrawMomVersion: 7.6.18

It works!I've tried every diet and eating plan out there. Nothing lasted. I do a 17 hour fast. I feel so much more energetic. My stomach issues have disappeared. I have rheumatoid arthritis and after a month on this plan I don't have hardly any flare ups, in fact I've been able to stoop my medication for it. The weight loss is slow but steady so i know it will be a permanent solution for me because it's very easy to follow. I could cut out my wine consumption and I'm sure it would go faster but ehhh i like wine so I'm happy with the pace I'm at. The app has been awesome because it reminds me to drink water and log my meal times which keeps me mindful of my goal and keeps me accountable. I eat what i want but am finding that by keeping up on the app and reading all the little daily educational notes the app gives i am slowly changing the foods i choose for the most part. To anyone reading this, i can tell you it's worth a try. It was my last resort and i cant say enough how thankful i am that i gave it a try. Sure you could do it without the app but i think it would be way more difficult trying to remember it all and you wouldn't have the benefit of all the educational stuff..Pknorman2017Version: 7.4.44

User friendlyBefore simple I struggled to eat consistently during the day then found myself starving at 10pm, then waking up with acid reflux or indigestion. It took me a couple of weeks to get in the swing of things but I just kept logging and not beating myself up. I didn’t even weigh myself for the whole first month till I got the hang of the schedule. I love it now. I never feel bad about eating what I want and notice I feel my best when I’m mixing up the foods I eat. Some days I have optimal healthy days some days good, some days fair. But it’s a healthy balance for mind and body. This app has helped me focus on the process and routine instead of results and it is SO user friendly. Now I’m about 2 months in. I have started weighing myself in the last month, when the app prompts me on my to do list and I am down 8lbs! It has helped me habit build and I am consistently walking the neighborhood each day and love it! I’ve just added some easy strength training this week. I love the daily articles and insights. I don’t read every day but they’re always helpful when I do. If you are looking for user friendly, habit building, “slow and steady wins the race” then this is your app!.Jessie Girl 36 anxiety loverVersion: 7.7.6

Great App! Get it and use it!This is a great app and I highly recommend it. That said, with a couple of tweaks I think it could go from great to perfect. All the developers need to do is read all of these reviews and optimize it based on the feedback. I agree with most of it. In my experience with it there are only two issues that should be fixed 1) the food choices are bizarre.I understand if it is more general than exact, but it’s kind of a mix of very general and very specific instead. I am annoyed every time I go to choose foods that should be on there and they aren’t, when so many are on there. that shouldn’t be. 2) you enter the time when you eat a meal, but there is no accounting for the duration of the meal (unless I am missing something). So if you eat a meal at 12 noon it says you started fasting at 12 noon. It should ask how long the meal was or at least give each meal at least a 20 to 30 minute radius. If you’re eating a social meal, sometimes the meal could take an hour and a half. Then what? Aside from those two fixes. I love it and think it is a great app, for a great price. I only use a select few apps religiously and this is now one of them. I have recommended it to all of my friends..@KitKat11Version: 7.3.2

I have a love/hate relationship with you💖Yes, he read that correctly. Simple makes it easy to focus on quality of eating, and by limiting my frame of eating time, I have less episodes of emotional eating. My schedule is somewhat erratic, and sometime when Simple says I should be eating or breaking my fast, I’m too busy catching up on sleep, so I eat when I wake up. As a type two diabetic, I hate that there is no place to log my blood sugar levels. I hate that there are “health foods” recommended that I cannot imagine, putting in my mouth let alone swallowing. 🤢 I consider myself fairly well informed about nutrition, yet I am learning more. And I love that! I have severe osteoarthritis in both knees, and it is painful to walk, or get on the floor and then get up. I am doing adaptive exercises, such as a seated, elliptical machine, chair yoga, and calisthenics. I surfed for 30 years in California, and now live inland and away from the ocean. Fortunately, for me, my drug of choice is H2O! I hate soda, the mermaid drinks that have more calories than an entire meal frequently call my name when I am out and about. I am learning, and I’m trusting the process. I am seeing results of approximately 4 pounds per week. You can’t argue with success. One more thing, I hate AI😤😎.NotChris53Version: 7.8.29

Meh, it’s OKI’ve done Noom (horribly overpriced) and others. I would say this one is somewhat overpriced though acceptable. It’s not a true AI and some of its replies start getting annoying and repetitive. It is also not an extremely gifted food tracker. If you’re into counting macros and calories, it’s not the best choice and sometimes it makes mistakes on whether or not your food is a healthy or not healthy choice depending on the way you enter your meal. Some of the content is pretty weak. I don’t see three sentences (each associated with a picture) as being a helpful “article.” It is good for people just starting with intermittent fasting and trying to eat healthier in a very general sense. It’s not terribly customizable, even though it says you can customize for each day. For example, one the new ways that is being touted to help greatly with fatty liver disease is 5:2 intermittent fasting which I thought would be workable within this app by closing my eating window to only 2 hours on two days a week. However, the app will adjust every single day to the same interval and not let you pick custom start and end times for various days, even on custom mode. So while I don’t hate the app, I don’t really love it. I’d like to see the developers putting more effort into this to justify the price tag..LittleFroggieboyVersion: 7.8.18

SimpleI was slightly overweight at 5’5”, 151 pounds and do a strenuous uphill 2 mile walk most every day, but having a hard time losing weight (I really love good food! & my husband is a great cook!). Friends of mine tried intermittent fasting and it really works for them so I wanted to try it. I started using the Simple app about 6 weeks ago and it is working for me- it’s not a “quick fix” - but I have lost about a pound/week, I don’t feel deprived at all, my mind feels clear and my waistline/muffin too seems to be shrinking. I like the reminders on the app to drink lots of water and document what/when you’re eating. There is good nutritional advice offered. I can have my early morning coffee (with just a splash of milk) and I go to work. I eat breakfast at around 10:30-11:00 or lunch at around 1:00 depending on how busy work is. Then dinner at around 6:00pm. We cook most of our meals at home and eat lots of salads with a protein (fish or chicken or steak) but we eat what we want. So my fasting window is usually around 16-17 hours. Other people may be able to eat one meal/day. That would not work for me. Simple has made my journey into intermittent fasting feel “Do-able” and comfortable. 😊.I'll shank your NanVersion: 7.6.18

ReviewI loved this for the 1st 2 weeks, even though it would NOT sync with my devices-iPad and iPhone!! Your coach’s suggestion was to log out and back in!! I followed it, and all of my data was lost!!🥵 I had to start over!! Since starting over, the coach cannot include a chair yoga clickable (from your app) chair yoga action in my daily plan-no matter how many times I ask 🤬, even though they were included all 15 days prior to my log out and my nightmare of trying to log back in…tech was involved (your IT people), but nothing really worked to retrieve my data!! I just quit trying and started over!! Grrr!!😡 I purchased this app for the chair yoga challenge in your ad, but that doesn’t seem to be known, or a possible adjustment, by your bot coach any longer!!! I was pleasantly surprised by the weight, food log, recipe suggestions and hydration elements of the app!! So, there are positives…but when I provide food likes and food dislikes, the bot coach SAYS she will keep those in mind for the future-that doesn’t happen either!!🥵 I think you have a good beginning on your product, but I think your programming needs attention and lots of refinement!! At this time, I would ONLY recommend your app if it was advertised as a Beta version and was actively improving during my usage!!.58SparklesVersion: 7.8.37

Support A ISIMPLE has two major components: 1) AI which is interactive, supportive, encouraging, knowledgeable, and holds me accountable. 2) Tracker which is data gathering. Providing measurements, personal statistics, and comparisons to goal. The BEST is Avo who I know will make me accountable and who presents a positive, supportive, and encouraging role. Often asking me what can I do to meet my goals. Next I LOVE the information that is provided. I’m 71 and now feel in my 20’s. In a good way. Women weren’t in sports. Women aren’t accustomed to “exercise” that’s why I LOVE that you call it activity. The PLUS is the information that is provided by experts based upon MY own experiences. Food, Activity, Hydration, Fats, Carbs, etc. SIMPLE dispels all the hype and noise that is out there. At a time when skinny ppl on the internet tell you you can eat whatever you want. At a time when they’re selling “Miracle Pills” that make you shed weight in weeks. At a time when there are so many fads, and so much misinformation. SIMPLE whittles all of that down to the truth about personal wellness and personal health. I’ve already lost 13.7 pounds with SIMPLE, learned so much about wellness, and have a positively motivated self care attitude..Seashell-SkiVersion: 7.8.19

Love it But…I have done very well with this app. I have lost 58lbs. I started in middle January 2023. Then they did an update when I fist started they listed the amount of calories, protein, carbs & etc. when I signed up they set me with an appropriate amount of these things to help me stay on track!! It was great specially the confidence boost… as long as I was in my eating window I could eat basically anything I wanted as long as I stayed within those limits. I talked this app up to anyone I knew who was trying to lose weight and get healthy. In the app it tells you no matter what you eat you should NOT feel bad about it. If you’re craving something you should eat it obviously your body is telling you what you need! Then the updates came… you took that away and have Avo. That makes me feel guilty about everything I do! And I gained 6 lbs back 😢. I am walking more and really trying to get an optimal reading but very seldom do I get it. It gives you that nasty face and I’m totally disappointed in myself! I don’t know why they thought this was going to help but it certainly doesn’t for me. I didn’t renew my subscription mainly because of that!.F ooo shVersion: 7.8.9

Just what I neededI’ve been struggling with my weight for years. Recently I began to notice increased blood sugar and A1C numbers at the doctor’s office. I am a 68 yo female with rheumatoid arthritis who takes lots of meds that help keep my weight on and sugars high. I saw this app and thought “ I’ve tried everything else let me try this”. I’m glad I did. The beauty of IF is each person decides where to place their eating hours and their fasting hours and how many hours of each. I decided to start wit 16:8. While I’m usually not hungry first thing in the morning I begin my fast about 5 pm. And then the “kitchen is closed” until I’m ready to eat the next morning. I used to snack continuously in the evening but due to fasting I no longer do that. Sometimes I am able to push my fast longer to 18 hours. It’s been a little over a month and I’ve lost 7 lbs. Also the artificial intelligence “AVO” is like having a human coach who pushes you to eat better and get some movement in your life. The app constantly sends articles that corresponds with your logged meals that give you dietary info to help you eat more healthy. I’m glad I invested in the app..Palermo425Version: 7.7.3

I like itThe cost is reasonable. For me, I am using intermittent fasting along with concentrating on nutrition. There are a lot of helpful articles, exercises you can do, and recipes. You enter what you eat in the app. Unlike other diet apps, you just write or dictate what you eat. It suggests recent or often eaten items so you usually don’t have to type in all of those. Also now you can just take a picture of what you are eating or even a recipe or menu item and it will get the items you are eating from that. You can change a meal if it needs correction too. It does a good job on nutrition. It concentrates on nutrition, not calories. It has helped me eat more nutritious food. The AI suggests how you could improve a meal if you want. Finally there are suggestions from the AI each day to help with nutrition, fasting and other things that can help with your journey. At the cost I paid, I could just continue to use it to help my health indefinitely. I have had more luck with this than anything else. I have tried on losing weight and maintaining weight loss. It is also helpful with things like how to not lose muscle mass. Good app!.MattieRossVersion: 7.8.44

ReviewI like many things about the app including the ability to track hydration, movement, nutrition and fasting time. I find inconsistency in some of the directions. It seems that the app doesn’t remember previous responses and asks the same question over and over again. For example, it would ask what made it easy to maintain your hydration goals multiple days in a row. The daily check- in doesn’t seem to have the information from the tracker or progress part of the app and often gives conflicting information. Another example is getting a daily goal of increasing my fasting time and then the next day giving a recommendation to take a break from fasting. I also got a recommendation for over hydration when I had consumed 6 ounces over my goal. I had already had multiple conversations about over hydration. The AI coach does. It seem to have a memory of previous conversations. After several weeks, I minimized my responses to the daily check in. I really like the articles on nutrition, fasting, and activity and have received many valuable tips and information. I like tracking the fasting times and getting reminders of blood sugar in relation to fasting..Nick222222223333Version: 7.8.43

A few fixes would make this app even betterFor their weekly bot check ins, they don’t give an option for “it was fine, i had no issue weighing in” all of their answer button options make the person answering feel like they should be stressed or feeling bad about weighing in or like it’s some big accomplishment to “feel better” or “be easier” than weighing in the week before. they should have an answer that is just “it was fine”. everything else they offer as an answer choice assigns a negative connotation to weighing in. that’s not only unhelpful, but could be highly triggering to anyone with previous or active body image or eating disorders. it would also be great if there were more pre set options for logging food, like nutrition info from National chains & such. as well as having cups & oz as an option for everything, not everyone has a scale to sort out how many grams of something we ate & some of us could more easily guesstimate portions by cups or oz. just a suggestion. i also can’t seem to find anywhere that it tells you how many calories you’ve consumed when you go through all the hassle of logging everything you’ve eaten in a meal or a day..RunawaykatVersion: 7.4.69

Self control is rebuilding ⭐️Someone may benefit from this story, but I know they can be annoying so skip to the end if you’d rather - A little over two years ago I had finally started to lose some weight and went from weighing 150 to 130 in a couple months, gradually dropping pounds. I felt great mentally and physically, and thought I was doing a good thing; only to have my significant other break things off with me because according to them I had developed a destructive eating disorder, and they “didn’t want to watch me destroy myself”. It crushed what I had achieved, and in a naive attempt to win them back I started eating 3x what I was in a day. I quickly not only gain roughly three times more than what I weighed, I also developed an actual eating disorder that wrecked my body and my life. Because of this person I lost all of what I worked hard for and the last two years have been an uphill battle to control my calorie intake. This app is helping me rebuild the self control I lost and gives me the opportunity to deduct whether I’m eating because I’m hungry or because my emotions are out of control. Full five stars from me, no complaints yet. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Version: 5.0.3

Taking my time. Not punishing myself.Because I have done the hard diets lost 100 pounds three times in my life to only find myself gaining it back in the following two years I was tired of dieting. I did a quick trial of intermittent fasting about 6 months ago. I liked it but it didn’t hold my attention. I was only restricting my hours of eating and not looking at the amounts or choices. Now that I am logging my food I have a better understanding of what I am eating . I get helpful and encouraging information and can text chat my concerns and get real answers and suggestions. I am making better choices, and slowly understanding my choices. My energy level is rising and I don’t feel like I am being punished, shamed, bossed, or bullied over my choices. I can’t even understand why it feels so right but I’m actually excited to be working this program. Nothing is forbidden. I don’t need a warden. I feel respect and that I’m going to change my poor choices without feeling bad about them, but instead because I am ready to understand my relationship with food..Kats and JammersVersion: 7.8.30

The Best Weight Loss App Ever!I have used several weight loss tracking apps and none of them can compare to the Simple app. The AI coach is phenomenal. If I ever have a question there is an answer that I need. The greatest feature of the app is the ability to take a picture of food on your plate and the app automatically calculates and lists the food items, how many grams for each, and the nutritional score. It is very accurate in my opinion. You can also take a picture of a menu item and it will tell you what choices are better than others based on the menu description. it has all the features of every other app I’ve ever use which includes hydration, exercise, weight and food tracking. You have the option to use some or all of the features that are on the app and I really like the AI coach that’s built-in. This app is worth every penny and I will be a subscriber for life. I’m not sure the Simple app could make it any easier than it is now but they’re continually improving it. In my opinion, this is a 10 star app. Great job!.LxgrcVersion: 7.8.44

Could be betterSo I really like this app and i think it has helped me really think about my decisions but there's some complaints I have. First, I don't like when I log my food the app not only assumes that everything I eat is a meal it also assumes whether or not im eating breakfast, lunch, or dinner based on the time of day. I really don't like that because I think I should be able to eat breakfast at 11am and dinner at 4pm without the app just assuming that it's a "late breakfast" or an "early dinner". I think there should be a feature where I can state whether or not what I ate is a meal or a snack and if I ate breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Second, I think the app should ask us how we feel after eating what we ate and if we liked the food. I know we can just write it down but it's not the same as when it asks you how you feel after working out and it has the little emojis. Third, there should be more milk options. Today I drank chocolate milk and I had to put it as hot chocolate because there wasn't a chocolate milk option. These are all of my complaints and I really hope you could at least take them into consideration..§_%Version: 7.6.2

It’s so SimpleI’ve been using this app for a little under a week. It is the second fasting app that I’ve tried. I went with Simple over the other app (and other weight loss/calorie counting apps) for a couple of reasons: 1) price: it is less expensive than both of the apps I was using previously. As someone who wants to lose a little extra weight, be healthy about it, BUT is also watching their finances because... a down payment on a house isn’t going to save itself 😉... the price tag on this app made me want to try it. 2) I love the way food is logged. I love that it doesn’t look at your calories. I love that it asks how that meal felt. I love that you don’t have to scan a barcode, or sort out a recipe every dang time you log a meal. I’m obsessed, to be quite honest. I also love that it’s tied into my fasting app. Of course this app has other awesome features, like articles, it integrates with my Fitbit, etc, but those two were the biggest selling points for me when I started. I couldn’t recommend this app enough to anyone looking at wanting to learn more about fasting. I don’t usually become obsessed with health tracking apps, but Simple is different..PixiefauxpasVersion: 6.4

Wow, it’s got a lot more then I was expecting.It’s got everything.. to tracking my meals, adding ingredients/foods I’m eating at what time. Tracking my drinks, how much of what drink I’m consuming at a certain time. It’s got so many details. You can adjust the plan, make it your own. You can start with something easy and work your way to longer fasting periods when you’re comfortable. I’m super impressed with the app, and I’m excited to stick to it..GreyvibesVersion: 6.2.0

I’m so glad this ad popped up on my news feedI eat pretty healthy except my snacking at night isn’t the best choices. So when I started using this app it was more of an experiment to see if in fact giving up snacking later more so than earlier would really make a difference. Since quarantine gained about 10lbs and since IF, on week 4, I have lost 5lbs eating the exact same stuff. I’m in for life!!

Simple: AI Weight Loss Coach Negative Reviews

Ironic name, data overloadThe name of this app is ironic given the amount of data that it expects you to enter. I spent some time comparing 3 different IF apps: Zero, Fastic, and this one. For me, this one is the weakest of the three. Perhaps the biggest issue for me is that this app expects you to log everything happening in your life, all day every day, and when you don’t log those things it sends annoying notifications. How much food and which food, who did you eat with, how much water did you drink, how much exercise, how much blah blah blah…this app would be perfect for some kind of data scientist. For me, though, one of my struggles with dieting is all the time some apps force you to spend cataloging your life. I don’t have time for that, and it makes me feel like I’m spending my whole life tapping on my phone instead of living. There are some other issues with this app as well. They really, really want you to sign up for the paid memberships, and there’s an annoying ad/icon on the home screen that never goes away. UI issues. Of the 3 apps I compared, this one had the most overwhelming/cluttered/confusing UI. Even little things like the fact that the fasting period is a flat line instead of a circle. So many unintuitive things. Finally, the other two apps did a better job of providing short articles and educational material about dieting, IF, hydration, etc. by comparison, this app just feels like a colorful Excel spreadsheet..HzievshxkajzVersion: 7.4.45

Used to be great. :(This app used to provide continuously updated content and education catered to the users individual eating and fasting habits. It was great. Each new day opening the app was like Christmas morning. However, I renewed my premium subscription about 6 months ago and there’s been… nothing. No new insights, no articles, nothing. I’m not sure what I’m paying for anymore. It’s sad because I really did love this app at one point, and I would love to come back if they ever start putting work into it again. Below is my previous 5 star review for reference: Intermittent Fasting (IF) makes weight loss and health simple and easy. This app makes Intermittent Fasting simple and easy, so it works out well! The app makes it easy to track your eating and fasting windows. I especially like the Insights—simple click thru slides with tips and even short lessons in biology so you can get an idea about how your body is changing. I find it all fascinating! Only reason for the 4 stars is that it is a tad buggy at times. For a while it was not changing when I went to edit my goal weight. Also I’ve noticed that I’ll get alerts that new Insights are available, but they won’t be there. This are minor things that I can deal with. I’m just pointing them out. Basically if you’re trying to get control of your body composition and health and you feel bogged down by calorie counters, IF is a great thing to try and this app is a great way to try IF..KFillenVersion: 7.4.88

Frustrating and GlitchyI looked forward to downloading this app and being a premium customer. The first few days were great, it kept me on target, gave me helpful alerts and logging my food really made me contentious in a positive way regarding what I was eating. One day I decided to turn my phone off while I slept. In the morning when I turned my phone back on, the app kept saying that I had to sign up and pay. Well I had already paid for 3 months and had only been using the app for 4 days. I attempted to sign in. It did not recognize me. Long story short I had to contact their customer service department to reset my account. Which was hard because I kept getting the run-around from their digital customer service bot. It wasn’t until I asked for a refund that someone (a human) reached out to help me. Since then the app has proved consistently glitchy. If you make a mistake on the time you ate and try to fix it in the so it throws the whole app off. Currently I have to not enter my food intake today so that I can get it back to the current fast regime that I selected (8/16 ratio). I wanted to love this app. I really really did. In fact I’m frustrated that after my 3 months are over I will have to look elsewhere. I am glad however that I’ve been introduced to intermittent fasting. That practice will stay with me forever. But the SIMPLE app is anything but ..TruthnloveVersion: 7.7.5

Using this App for About 2 WeeksI have found intermittent fasting to be just what I need to get a handle on my weight and eating habits. Since starting the program I have seen a marked change in my cravings for unhealthy foods. I have been so addicted to sugars and bad fats and lots of processed foods. I was always a late night nibbler but that has stopped. So far I have lost 7 pounds and feel so much better. As far as the app goes, there is a lot there to help you and keeping track is pretty simple. But there are also some problems with the app. For example, after tracking my food for a week, I opened the app the next morning to begin my day and all my data, except for my name, etc , was gone. All my tracking, weigh-Ins, and plan information was gone. The app treated me a a new member and I had to start all over. I reported the problem and they finally reached out by email but they said I needed to give them more information. I did that but I have not heard back from them. Today my pictures would not upload and all the tips they provide were blanked out. I signed up for 3 months but if these kinds of things keep happening, I might look elsewhere. It is always a pet peeve with me that these developers never give you a way to contact them directly like a phone number. You tend to only interact with a computer..WomanoftheWordVersion: 7.4.11

Not Worth the Time or MoneyTruly and honestly, do not waste your time or money on this app. It’s all AI generated and it’s got a lot of kinks which really take the value out of a really good concept like Simple. I paid for the plan and everything else you could pay for including the recipes and workouts. It was an absolute waste of money. The recipes they gave me don’t even score “good” on the app! What is the value in that? I’ve had to use my own recipes to get “optimal” scores. Additionally, I always include “sugar-free” when I log a meal that is sugar-free and it ALWAYS gives me a lower score and notes “high in sugar”. I understand it is the kinks of AI instead of a real coach, but scoring mistakes like this are leading me to believe I can’t trust the scores I’m being given. Additionally, I am well over a month into being completely committed to a 16-hour fasting plan with a goal of always logging “optimal” meals and all my workouts are linked through my Apple fitness and I have yet to see a pound of weight loss. Also, when I was following the recipes I had to pay for through Simple, it caused me to gain two whole pounds which I only lost once I started to make my own recipes. I cannot express enough how much a waste of time and money this is. I wish I had an honest review to turn me away from ever purchasing this program. Please do not waste any money on Simple: Weight Loss Coach or any of their products..DuckduckbootVersion: 7.8.56

Too much judgementI wanted an app to track my intermittent fasting times, macros, and calories, and fluid intake. This app provides unwanted feedback each and every time I log food and has variable levels for food. One meal I enter chili and it’s good, the next time it’s fair, another time it’s great. It also doesn’t provide any info on macros or calories and has completely inconsistent nutrition information. It considers all juice bad. It considers all peanut butter to have sugar, even if I type in no sugar, it doesn’t acknowledge any health benefits to hamburger made at home with cheese, it doesn’t allow for customization of exercise input for chores done around the house. The AI coach provides guidelines each day which can be changed, but only to very limited options, that do not align at all with a working person’s life. There is zero consideration of specific health concerns or the needs of a person in menopause. There is zero consideration for physical movement limits like arthritis. Overall, I think this app is nothing like the ads on social media. The subscription cancellation process is very confusing as well. I can’t even tell how much I will be charged next month. I’m only continuing to use it because I paid for it. But I just ignore all of the comments and suggestions and just use it for tracking fasting times and fluid intake..JunGem47Version: 7.8.57

How do I rate this company a zero?Started my 3-month subscription in December 2021. This app is not managed through Apple subscriptions so after a while a normal person will forget they establish the first subscription cycle and have no way of keeping up to date on their active subscription with Simple. Simple is quick to capitalize here by auto-renewing your subscription, and to be honest, I don’t recall a moment in the process of purchasing the original 3-month sub where I was prompted to agree to auto-renewal. Nonetheless, they take your money and will continue to do so without your knowing — especially if you’re not frequently monitoring your PayPal activity. So I contacted Simple’s customer service a day after the most recent auto-renewal to state that I didn’t realize I was having money deducted through PayPal over the last two “billing cycles” (as it turned out they were, unbeknownst to me). Their solution was to cite their refund policy and tell me that I was not qualified, even though I haven’t used the app since February nor did I originally—knowingly— agree to auto-billing. Simple is in fact not unwitting to their methods and will very readily take YOUR money, too, if you let them. Please be very wary of this company’s unscrupulous policies and horrifying customer service. They really should be ashamed of themselves for their dishonesty and greediness. But hey, capitalism!.Sillydemon467Version: 7.4.50

Waste of money!If you are someone with even basic knowledge of intermittent fasting, don’t bother wasting your money on this app. For example I am pregnant and even though I entered this information it is telling me to fast for 18 hours and eat for 6! What a joke! Seriously, if someone is naive enough to just go by this info without really doing their research, I smell a lawsuit coming their way.

Cancelled as per instructions on app - through my Apple App Store as well as through the Simple app. Found I was charged that day for $27.44. I tried to contact them through email that was provided in the app Jan 9, 2023 and today but no one responded. Definitely do not download or purchase this app!!!!!.Jo@yyc$Version: 7.4.88

It’s a scam. Will charge you 110 CA$ without notifying you.This app is literally a scam. They will charge you without notifying you. And when you ask them that you are not satisfied with their app, they will not reply back easily. Then after weeks they will reply and will say, you are not qualified for the refund. So basically they are forcefully charging you for just logging in your food and water. And what else intermittent fasting that we can do notes as well. I would say, don’t waste your money on this app..RimkauVersion: 7.4.86

The worst oneI bought it with pay pal and unfortunately this application charged me despite deleted application on my phone and despite 3 times email to them through PayPal application, I received no response!.M. RSVersion: 7.4.86

Poor Service and FraudI have downloaded this app for $1.00 free trial for 8 days. After one day I didn’t find this app useful and tried to cancel the subscription but application didn’t allow me. I tried through Apple Pay subscription but this app is not showing there. Now I am sending them emails from last two weeks and no response. They are sending me email back with the steps how I can cancel the subscription but it’s not working for me. I asked for refund and no response. Please don’t download this app because no one is gonna help after. Fraud and useless application..ArorasariVersion: 7.4.86

The auto renew even after cancellationCanceled almost immediately after starting my free trail and was still charged. The customer service is a bot..SimplescamVersion: 7.4.85

Donot download or payI have used this app for a year and wanted to lose a lot .. but it didn’t help at all .. all it does is log activity and food with no suggestion and help or plans to lose weight .. I want my money back .. it didn’t help at all..RyabbbVersion: 7.4.84

Poor customer service/app designI consented to trying the app for $1. I did not like the app as I found it was busy and not helpful for tracking food (I have another app I find is more superior). I decided I didn’t want to keep the app but could not figure out how to cancel it as typically it will show up in my subscriptions but it did not. So I contacted the company to try to figure out how to cancel and in that time I was charged $79.20 for 3 months!! I was not interested in this and voiced that I did not want this. The company person Andrew contacted me back and told me how to cancel my subscription but completely ignored my request for a refund. I have sent 3 msgs in total that are very polite and still ignored. All in all I feel the app is designed poorly and extremely overpriced. Ticket number 319129.*nmc*Version: 7.4.84

12+ rating but you need to be 18+ to use itI put in my birthdate assuming since the app needs you to be 12+ since that is its rating yet it told me on the app i need to be 18+ to use the app..Christopher metznerVersion: 6.3.0

Do not get thisThis app gives a nice free few weeks. After that you automatically are charged for a monthly subscription. There is NO way to unsubscribe. They have disabled this feature deliver so that they keep making money. I’ve been trying for months to unsubscribe. Not happening. Still trying to figure it out. But they are ripping off a ton of people by making it impossible to unsubscribe. MONTHS OF TRYING. DONT GET THIS.Marble makerVersion: 7.8.12

App is ok, Customer service is GarbageWhen I signed up six months ago, I thought I’d give it a shot. But I used it very little. I was only able to stay on it for two months before life got in the way and I wasn’t able to use it anymore. All of a sudden, in May I get charged $100 again. I suppose I missed something when I first signed up and didn’t realize it was auto renew. As fast as I was charged, I contacted the company and said that I apologize, that I needed to cancel the subscription and I requested a refund. Again, I haven’t used the app in four months. I was met with a flat out no. They will not refund me anything even though I’m not using it and haven’t used it. In fact, I don’t even have the app on my phone anymore all in all very poor customer service. They didn’t even have the dates of my subscription correct in their system. AVOID this one if you can there are much better apps..BotijrVersion: 7.8.11

Tried to cancel but got charged anywaysI found the reporting and graphs to be inaccurate. I asked their support but they just kept closing the ticket with no resolution, so I stopped using it. Tried to cancel (and the app said I was canceled) but I never got an “email confirmation”. That’s how they justified charging me the renewal for it, and refused to give a refund. It’s an interesting app, and I find that fasting does help with my goals. If you try the app and it works for you, great! If you try it and it doesn’t work for you, you should be very diligent to make sure you have the paper trail or they’ll keep charging you, and refuse to refund..SeawallersVersion: 7.8.11

SCAM THEY TAKE YOUR MONEYThey’ve been charging me $50 every month since December without my knowledge. THEY ARE SCAMMERS.Buddy9101010154Version: 7.8.9

DisappointedI downloaded the app to try it out and didn’t find it was to my satisfaction. Yes, they sent an email when I first downloaded it saying when I’d be billed but I did not receive any reminder emails when this billing date would occur. I received the charge and within 5 minutes requested to cancel and requested a refund. After a lot of back and forth they have continued to refuse a refund. They have been polite and I understand it’s on their website policy that they don’t issue refunds, but I’m surprised they would not make an exception. Overall very disappointing experience and I would not recommend a trial and find yourself in the same situation..Top guuuuuurlVersion: 7.8.9

This is a scam!UPDATE: The developer responded here to my review, but they don’t respond to my actual email complaint. I took screenshots of the email I received when I cancelled the app, yet still got charged, but they never responded to my questions nor refunded my money. THIS IS A SCAM! This app is a scam! I purchased it last year because it was onsale. I subscribed for the yearly membership. I cancelled it right away because I did not want to forget about renewing it after a year. However, a year later, I was billed for $79.20 when I do not even have the app anymore! They claimed that they sent me a renewal notification, but I did not cancel! I never received an email from them! They refused to give me a refund! Be very careful! Do NOT and I repeat, DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP! This is a scam! If I can give this a zero review, I would!.Liz Ell1234Version: 7.8.8

Shady companyIt looks like their business model is to let you subscribe and then never communicate with you so that you forget about your subscription. If you notice the charge it it too late and even if you can no longer use your account they will charge you for the full 3 months. Very shady business model..20100boVersion: 7.8.8

SCAMWhile the app is pretty good to kickstart fasting, I stopped using it after a few weeks. I noticed a $99 charge on my card (for a 3 month subscription) and I immediately emailed to state that my intention was not to buy a subscription. I was told that because the renewal had gone in the night before I couldn’t cancel. There were no emails stating this payment would be going through, and the app is absolutely not worth that exorbitant cost. I would have likely recommended this app had the service not been so poor..DevWalkeVersion: 7.8.7

Zero assistance after requesting to cancelI requested to cancel my subscription, twice and have yet to hear back. I got charged another annual fee without my consent. There is no reply from customer service, and now I'm resorting to contacting my banks fraud department. Zero help once you decide to cancel..Jk201121Version: 7.8.6

UselessThis is an over-priced app that offers nothing new and has awful customer service and refund policy. Do not waste your money..HomelessgalVersion: 7.8.5

Overcharged right from the beginning!!I clicked on the 3 month membership at a discounted rate of $59.99. BUT I was charged $79.99????? I’d like my money back. I’ve cancelled based on principle for that alone..JohnsmamaVersion: 7.8.5

DONT EVEN SIGN UP!!!This app makes it intentionally complicated to unsubscribe and will continue billing you for MONTHS. The free trial for $1 gives them access to your credit card and simply unsubscribing on your Apple account doesn’t stop them from charging! $79 every three months is a damn joke for this app.JakcieneVersion: 7.8.5

Stop taking my $$$$I’ve contacted you several times, I accidentally subscribed.. you’ve taken my $ from my visa. STOP and please return my funds!!!!.Still searching for a good appVersion: 7.4.87

Awful serviceI have reached out three times to cancel my subscription and still no reply from them. I don’t recommend as there is absolutely no after-sale service..Lola cloVersion: 7.4.87

Beware of multiple subscription chargesBefore the end of the free trial, the app will prompt you to renew through their website. It will not tell you to cancel your subscription through the App Store. I paid twice and haven’t had any indication of a refund from their customer service. Do yourself a favor and skip the app. Just set an alarm to fast..Merryweather7Version: 7.4.84

Don’t waste your moneyThis app is simple all right. Common sense knowledge and a timer that’s it. Horrible customer service and a totally unreasonable refund policy..RocketspiceVersion: 7.4.83

Deceptively making moneyI got baited by this app. First they claimed that with one dollar they give you a plan. Then, without clearly showing that in their website they charged you 70 CAD for renewing subscription. The problem is much worse since I cannot even see my subscription just in case I want to use it. I contact the support 3 times and they just sent me generic template emails. I am gonna follow this with my bank..MilwernbuckaVersion: 7.4.83

It’s a scamNever subscribe. Total scam. I canceled my “free month” on the same day I subscribed and was charged 60$. Tried to call and contact them by chat. No answer..NadeFernerVersion: 7.4.83

This app is fraud!Don’t install and use this app. They just take your money without your consent during the trial period..NimaSe7enVersion: 7.4.82

Absolutely useless.Lots of promises. Zero delivery. Worst value imaginable. And as an added benefit, I couldn’t log in to cancel the trial and when I asked for a refund there was zero response. Stay away..BluemugsVersion: 7.4.82

Wow what a scamBuyer beware for sure. All the good reviews must be bots because all the comments and complaints listed in reviews lately happened to me. Paid $1 for a 7 day trial and got charged $59.40 at the same time without my consent. Sent them an email less than 30 min asking to cancel my unauthorized subscription and demanded a full refund and got an auto email saying that I agreed to the subscription through the app. Sent them back email saying again I wish to cancel and that my subscription to their “premium package” was not authorized and that they should give me my $ back. No response. What a scam!.JulieimageVersion: 7.4.82

Not sure about thisMy wife and I both joined simple together. At exactly the same time. When we download the apps, she got a different app than I did. Her app functions much more intuitively than mine does. I contacted support. They told me that one of us got a test app. I don’t know why they’re putting out test apps that don’t work as well as their app. It’s very frustrating. My app asks for way too much detail on every meal. It takes me 15 to 20 minutes to log in meals individually item by item. I am interested in the fasting but I’m not interested in doing a calorie count. Their support was a one time attempt. Then they sent me a letter saying it’s been resolved. They said it was resolved after I sent them an email with a couple of questions still regarding the app. If the app is supposed to help this one is not. I can do intermittent fasting all on my own with just a watch. I was hoping the app would be of assistance. There.NoNikNameh23498Version: 7.4.77

Took my money for subscription I told them I did not want after trialI wish I could give 0 star. I paid for the 7 day trial and email them informing them I don’t want to continue with subscription after the trial. They still took my money even though the app is showing not subscribed. You have to email them to cancel a subscription and then they a MIA. I WANT MY MONEY BACK. Lesa Roberts.Lesa RobertsVersion: 7.4.77

I got charged for the 7-day free trialSo I got an ad on Instagram about this app and it called my attention. It redirected me to their website, asked couple of questions and offered a 7-day trial, then they charged me 13 USD , didn’t send me an email confirmation and sent me to the app, when I got to the app the asked me the same questions and they said I didn’t have to pay for anything now, until the 7 day free trial passes. As I wasn’t thinking getting it until I see if it was effective, I was not looking to pay for anything. I sent an email to their email address for customer service and they said that they’d cancel my subscription but the money they took was non-refundable, which is dumb because if in the app they are mentioning that you didn’t have to pay until the 7 days passed, I don’t understand why they charged me on the website. I’m not looking forward to renew this as the app itself is pretty basic and I was hoping something different..Gabreu12101998Version: 7.4.76

Extra money charges without consent very frustratingI paid for a week trial, the. I paid for a 3 months plan, next thing I know on day forteen they take a third uge amount on my card without consent. They wont repay since I used their app during 14 days. Well Pay with paypal dont give them your card number. I canceled the whole thing. Lost 170$ Be Careful!.Jgagne051Version: 7.4.75

SCAM - Don’t download this appThis app is a complete fraud. I forgot to cancel my premium subscription before it starts and they won’t give me a full refund. This is unacceptable. If you want to lose money for stupid reasons, feel free to download this app..Saghi-KhVersion: 7.4.74

READ THE FINE PRINT CAREFULLY!!!!I have to first start with this statement. I am generally fairly computer savvy and cancel and restart subscriptions all the time. I purchased a one week test trial assuming I was not signing up for anything more than the $1 charge I made to have a look at this app. My assumption was that this payment had no strings attached. One week later they charge me another 48 for an app I believe I did not agree to. READ THE FINE PRINT CAREFULLY . I only opened this app 1 time. It is basically a glorified alarm clock and completely not needed to help with fasting. Set a timer on your iPhone if you can’t keep track of time. Quite disgusted in being scammed into paying for this. Only one other time in my life did I make a mistake with a subscription which was on Duolingo. They refunded me immediately! Hence I am still a customer of theirs!.GalwatchcatVersion: 7.4.74

Complete scamThis company is a complete scam, I signed up and they charged my credit card but provided no way for me to login or use the alleged product. Reached out multiple times with the only response being they couldn’t find an account with my contact. Yet they continued to charge my credit card for multiple months until I finally called my credit card and reported this as fraud..ChloetdogVersion: 7.4.72

ScamThey tell you it’s customized for you but it’s generic, complete money grab. It’s basically just giving you 8hour fasting windows and you don’t need to pay for an app to tell you this. They give you a hard time for cancelling. Do not buy!!!!!.GfcbjfcVersion: 7.4.37

Simple scamJe me suis fait avoir par cet application . Vraiment juste du vent ..Coco.laura.Math.123Version: 7.4.82

Not even worth the timeThis app does nothing except keeps track of your fasting. It offers nothing of value but took my money anyway and won’t refund it even though I don’t use it. Such a waste and a thief!! The Fastic app is so much better!.CharjewelzVersion: 7.3.6
