My Daily Plate App Reviews

I drink Odwalla smoothies and theres no data base other than the very basics (watermelon, chicken, water) so theres no way to log it. Disappointed.

Am I missing where to input a glass of wine or an ounce of dark chocolate? Great otherwise & simple to use. Thank you!

Giving the user only a (rather limited) list of options to choose from, without any way to add custom items, means that what gets recorded is often full of gaps to the point of being useless and misleading. No way to enter any fats and oils? No way to enter any desserts or candy? No beverages other than water and milk? Ridiculous. Theres no way to record the cup of coffee or tea you drank, or the soda, or OJ. You can record the bread you ate, but not the butter you put on it. If you eat a candy bar, your calorie count in this app wont know about it. You had fish? The app will assume it was either baked or grilled. Of course, if it was actually fried, the app will estimate the calories very wrong. If you had peas, the app simply assumes there were "no salt or fat added." If you had a salad, the app wont know about the dressing. (And to all the people in these reviews saying "well, you _shouldnt_ eat sweets/fried food/fats" - shouldnt this app log what you actually eat, not what you _should ideally_ eat? And an app that only works for people who already always eat the ideal diet isnt much of a helpful app.)

This app is easy to use and visually appealing. I love the concept bot it does not allow for variations of the servings and the product list is very limiting. I had a half can of tuna but it only allows for a whole can. I have looked at every yogurt in the store and no yogurts match the ones on the list. I am trying to eat natural foods so it would be nice if some of the natural brands were on the list. Steel oats is not, in many cases I have to find something else on the list that is similar and use that. Which does not give my dietician exact data.

Not able to see what you entered. Food choices limited. i.e. No way to add protein powder or green drinks. Gosh theres no ground beef. Guess its time to find an old Deal aMeal and skip the technology

I used this app a few days and found it easy to use with calories goal count, history log of foods eaten each day, food selection to log calories and colorful plate to show the fulfillment each food groups. However it would be an improvement to update with more food selection because some foods I ate are not available for selection (it is more complicated to select different ingredients here and there to calculate calories just for an item example like Pizza. I also wish there are activity log and weight log too.

Simple to use Allows you to identify what food you are lacking for the day Would like to have more food options
