It's a great concept but you will get more by chatting with any AI LLM. Just too many issues. For example, for the last two days I added activity (90 minutes on a treadmill and 90 minutes on a bike) and it will say I didn't do anything lol. It can't get into specifics well. It will ask you what you had for a meal and when you give it data, it makes incorrect assumptions and the opportunity to fix its errors are subpar. I feel it will get there but will take time. Yup ;-)

I just signed up and from what I can gather from the app it is not finished. *No way to accurately log meals (auto system is always wrong and no way to correct the info) I will wait and see about the scale and Fitbit functionality then I might change the review; however at this point I do not have a lot of faith in this system.

I liked it at first. It does okay with food tracking and the silly coach bot was actually helpful at first just because it made me think about my choices. I like that it tracks my daily weight in the app and I can visually see it going down. I also liked that I could save notes, which is where I tracked my measurements. BUT, the coach got annoying so I stopped paying attention once I got in a rhythm. The scale still "works" in theory, but the weight is hit or miss on accuracy. Also, the app only saves 1 month worth of info, and that includes my notes. I have been doing this for nearly 5 months now and I would like to see my over all progress. Another thing that is really annoying is they say that you will get a Fitbit, but I only received the scale. Apparently you will receive the Fitbit if your insurance company approves it, and many do not. That fine for me because I prefer my Samsung watch, except the app does not connect to my watch. I have to manually add all activity which is a pain because half the time it does not accurately track it even if I enter it myself. In the beginning, it connect to my health app, but after about a week it stopped, so my water intake, steps, and manually input weights stopped being saved. Overall, if you want something to get started it's okay, but for the long term, there are several other options that are better and free, and you can pay like $40 for a scale on Amazon that does much more than lark.

The only positive about this program is the free scale and BP monitoring. Otherwise, the app is useless and the "coach" you chat with is nothing but an unhelpful bot with pre-programmed annoying (and honestly, childish) responses. You can't actually request help from a coach and type your own replies. The calorie counts are way off and I keep getting "this food has too much sodium" messages about recipes I make myself with NO sodium. I was told my protein shake was high in sodium, but it doesn't even have sodium. This is nothing like Myfitnesspal, which has the actual, correct nutritional data and that portion of the app is totally useless. I haven't received any information on how to lower my BP whatsoever and the pre-programed responses like "woo!" and "yup" make me feel like I'm talking to someone who is 18. Do yourself a favor and just buy yourself a scale and a BP cuff. The app provides nothing useful and I can't believe my insurance company is paying for this!

The "coach" is annoying. It won't let you actually put your real thoughts in - only the preprogrammed responses. I log walking and it records running. Calorie counts are very off. Scale weight was 4 lbs heavier than my doctor and home scale. I interact while winding down in bed at midnight and it whines at me that I haven’t been active (walking, exercising). Duh. I'm in bed. I really don't care for the pre-planned responses o "have" to make. Why can't I actually have an option to ask a question or give my real feelings. Deleting an wrong entry is next to impossible. I hope ot gets better. Ibwas looking forward to using it.

Appreciate effort to keep me healthy but not liking it. I have read all the instructions and completed all the troubleshooting. Doesn't transfer scale weight to app. Doesn't recognize whole wheat bread. Doesn't allow manually entry of weight. Frustrating coaching, needs to be fast and simple. I have deleted the app because I emailed about issues with no response. Feel bad for wasting money that my plan paid for this.

Horrible app, with no instruction on how to use, no way to login via the web, the bot is horrible, you can't ank question....I have no idea what I am doing.
