Opt IN Study

I couldn't use this app because the people in charge of the study waited until my doctor, my friends, and I had completed all the paperwork (including a 14 page survey!) to tell me I didn't qualify. It could have easily been covered in the Orientation meeting, but wasn't. If you are considering this study, be prepared to have your time wasted.

So many UX issues with the app. No barcode scanner, only a 1/4 of the index that myfitnesspal has. Cant view the day before's profile, you can only add to it. Unless you eat the same 5 things everyday, this app is frustrating to log food into. Makes me not even want to do it because its a hassle.

I think the opt-in program has helped me a lot. But right now I am reviewing the app, and I have to give a negative rating for it. The stats charting does not match what I enter into my phone, even though the charts on the "Me" tab do work properly and I think the correct information is being sent to my coach, though I'm not sure. I have no way to verify whether edits that I make to a previous day's food are saved correctly. Also, the food search is about as bad as I can imagine.

This app works poorly. Also the food database is lacking in content. Update 6-2-14 After an update the charting worked but as of today it again stinks. 6-3-14 The stat charts are functioning again. The food database still stinks. This application does not work at all. The database is very poor. I am quitting the program. I do not know. what the grant amount for this study is, but whatever the amount it has not been used effectively. I am very disappointed what the entire experience.
