My Daily Plate App Reviews

Changes how you think about food choices.

I really like the ideas behind this app. Its perfect for someone who is trying to clean up their diet without pressure of a calorie maximum. I was most surprised by how quickly I reached my fruit goal for the day (since I love fruit) and how much more I had to try to get my vegetables (since I kind of lump them with fruit in my head). There are two things Ive noticed so far that I wish they would add though. 1. A recipe section so that if I make some kind of crock pot dinner with peas carrots tomato and chicken and only eat a portion of it at a time I could simply input the contents of the whole dish then quickly add 1 cup of the recipe instead of trying to figure out how much of each ingredient I ate each time I eat the dish. 2. A mess up section. Say I give in to the temptation and eat a candy bar. Without imputing the particular thing I ate just simply giving myself a strike for the day so I could see how much I mess up to at least hold myself liable for those little mess ups rather than forgetting it ever happened.

Quick and easy way to make sure I have consumed enough of a food group over the course of a day versus counting calories. Great beginning teaching tool for children/adolescents to support or improve their knowledge in eating healthy/balanced meals.

As a Registered Dietitian I look for tools that are helpful and easy. This app is what I have been looking for! The simplicity is its key because having to search and scroll through thousands of brands becomes so tedious that people stop. This easy-to-use app will help you choose a variety of healthful foods which is the ultimate goal in striving for a healthy lifestyle! The updates and improvements just released made it even better!

Cool app, but it doesnt allow me to track my junk food intake. Also, this app only tracks my water consumption, and no other drinks like tea, soda, or alcohol.

I love this app but it needs a place to log your weight so that you can see your weight progress. Please and thank you.

Once I started to using My Daily Plate I discovered just how imbalanced a diet I had. In my mind I thought I ate right but knowledge is power and this app helps me know when I need to made adjustments. Functionally, the app is super simple to use and intuitive. I love the layout and ability to monitor my progress.

I really like how it charts out the food groups on the plate / but does not let you know how many more you need for the day. It is hard to see what has been consumed for the day, needs more food choices, and some more personalization - weight or inches tracker... A few simple things need to be added to this app and it would be excellent!

I cant find butter or mayonnaise or oil ... Where do you add your fats - waste of money

Love the simplicity of it , I have tried so many app and this is for sure the best , it may need a few thing to be perfect but I love it so far . And for those needing a junk food addition hello you should not eat them to the first place thats why they are not in the list . This all about clean eating and right portion .

The simplicity of this app is hard to beat. However, there is a limited selection of foods already programmed into the app, and no option to add ones own foods. A broader selection of foods would make the app better.

I gave 5 stars this time for potential. Id like to use for my 5.2 diet but it doesnt work gif the fasting days.

I easily would have given this 5 stars if it were not for the fact there is no place to mark off fats and oils, sugars, or condiments. Its very easy and simple to use and I can see where this is going to be a great help! Add the extras and I will gladly give you 5 stars!

I love the simplicity of the app but it needs more vegetarian and vegan options in the protein and dairy food lists.

Really like the simplicity of this the app. Would like to select amount of food. Especially if you do half portions.

This app is simple to use and I like that. However, it does not allow you to change the food amount consumed. It also does not have a lot of basic foods. The food list is quite limited. If those two things were fixed, this would be an excellent app!

This app would receive all 5 stars if to make up for the lack of food variety, we were able to add our own foods. The selection is very general and does not include many, frequently used foods.

I wish that you could search for the food that you ate. Also I wish you could have the option to record everything you eat, including chocolate or anything that doesnt fit into the categories

I read reviews before buying this app but thought I should try it out for myself. Yes, is doesnt have a "fats" category, but, lets be honest, we shouldnt be eating them anyway. ;) It would be nice if there was an option for other beverages, because I do have my cup of coffee everyday. I love that water is alone because it helps me reach my goal. This app is so simple!!! You just pick the category and enter what you eat & how much. I hate when descriptions get so complicated and are hard to find. Simplicity is key...

Takes us away from calorie counting and towards eating nutritious food.
