MOVE! Coach for Negative User Reviews

What’s with the update issues?I have been using this program for months but today both diet and activity is gone from the app, what happened? This is really screwing up my progress please help with this..Version: 1.2.1

Needs some work!It is do hard to use. The selections are dark and barely readable. It’s hard to navigate. C’mon! You can do better than this for the veterans!!!.Version: 1.1.1

Not bad, but......This is a good app, but there is room for improvement. First, there is no way to change the date of what you are trying to enter. When i was entering my meals from yesterday it put them on today because it was after midnight when i finished inputting the data. Second, the exercise calorie count is very generic. I have a treadmill that does incline up to 11 degrees and that drastically changes the calories burned during the workout. There is also no way to set how fast you were going. In 30 minutes of walking at 5.5 km/h on a 7 degree incline i burned 196 calories with a distance of 2.74km. This app only gave me credit for around 130 calories. And third when choosing what our meals are it would be helpful if we could select what items were used. For instance my meal last night was spaghetti macaroni with lean ground pork. I also sprinkled some parmesan cheese on it. But there is no way that i see to edit the entry. I’ll give this app a 3 star for now. If you upgrade the app and make it better I”ll revisit my review..Version: 1.0.21

Not accurate and difficult to editThe food categories don’t really match the labels on packages for calories. It is also difficult to find specific foods. There is no way to manually enter calories. Also if you enter information you can not edit. The app just really crashed in the food category’s. I just can’t recommend this app. It is just not reliable.Version: 1.1.0

Move!CoachStarted using this app in February 2020. It really worked when you could document weight, food intake and exercise data. Lost the diet and exercise diaries in October 2020. Not much good anymore. Bring those back please..Version: 1.2.1

GalandkWhy did you remove the diet and physical activity diary? It was a crucial and important part of the weight loss plan. Calorie management is what made it work. My friend lost 74 pounds using this system. We are both deleting the app because it no longer suits our needs..Version: 1.2.1

Not usableI just tried using the app for the first time after downloading it a couple weeks ago. When setting up your information you can’t even see the information that you are trying to select. It took some trial and error to enter my height. Forget entering your age. I couldn’t even see what number I selected because it doesn’t show up on the screen at all..Version: 1.1.1

Week 2 crashes the whole appGood news you only lose two weeks of effort, bad news you lose two week of effort. Try and complete week two and send day material crashes the app.Version: 1.1.1

GrievancesI have several issues. 1.They try to fit too much into this app and it slows it down to where it is barely functional. - Solution? Team up with myfitnesspal or a similar diet tracker to "lighten the load" 2. Nowhere is there a "contact" button to let them (theVA) know about issues or problems that occur with this app. 3. I use myfitnesspal. I have changed my diet for the good and I exercise. Please stop repeating what I already know. I need help, not to be badgered by useless information that cannot even reach me because the app cannot function. 4. Good initiative, bad judgment..Version: 1.0.15

Needs workThe app does not allow for entering exactly what I ate. Ex: I had an Arby’s Grand Turkey sandwich, it has bacon but I cannot add it. In addition, the calories allotted were either higher or lesser than what I ate. Having the list available is helpful but I need to be able to customize my diet entry. Like another user that stated they needed the ability to edit the dates of dietary entries. I too made the mistake of completing my entries after midnight and was unable to change it. We need the capability to enter data at our convenience and to customize those entries..Version: 1.0.21

Glitchy on my iPhone SEVery frustrating to use. I have tried numerous times to a Vance through the modules. I enter all my data and respond to the prompts. Get through several of the modules then it crashes! When I restart the app from Home Screen all my data is gone and requires me to start from beginning. Thought it was just my iPhone but I loaded on iPhone 7 with same results. Won’t try to use it anymore. What a shame..Version: 1.2.1

App not working properlyI don’t know how to report issues with the app. I called the number in the help section and they are putting in a ticket. I have an iPhone XR. When I click on Self Assessment Guide Week 2, #2-How to read food labels, the app just closes. The rest of the section works..Version: 1.0.21

Cannot go back to add foodsThere are a couple of foods that I had to figure out how to custom add as well as a couple that I forgot to add from the previous day. The app would not let me change the date to add from a previous date. This is irritating as I am trying to keep an accurate record of calories and progress. Please fix this..Version: 1.1.0

Custom entryThe program is good and it does help track the calories and activity. However, when trying to add a custom item when it gets to the screen that asks if I want to enter additional information I can’t see anything because the screen to enter numbers is in the way and no way to hide it..Version: 1.0.17

EulaCannot even get it past the eula prompt.Version: 1.7.0

Very Poor User ExperienceWhen I first ran the app I was invited to enter my height weight and age. Although ICould get to the screen there was no option to enter my height for my age. The app decided that I was 8’6” tall. Once I moved past that I found that many of the menu prompts are dark text on a dark background and for myself they’re completely unreadable..Version: 1.1.1

No longer helpfulApp lost all ability to add diet and activities. All it is now is a weight tracker. It was useful, was..Version: 1.2.1

Crashes too muchI downloaded this yesterday. It crashes when I try to enter food info. Is there a fix?.Version: 1.0.21

1988I'm pretty sure the smart kid in my senior class (1988) in HS built a program. This app is pretty much a series of articles with a few very basic calculators. Think of it as a half step up from a 3 ring binder, a lot like the PT manual in my barracks in 1988. I'm a Vet and taxpayer. How is this allowed to be something we push on our vets? For what the VA probably paid to develop this, they could have paid for a training service offered through any of the top fitness apps. DELETED!.Version: 1.0.15

Strange diet entry optionsI wanted to use the app primarily as a food tracker. But I went to input my meal and couldn’t input simply skinless chicken breast... All options were for breaded. I cooked green beans and chicken with some coconut oil, nothing complicated. The app should allow custom entries, so I can find the calorie/fat amount on WolframAlpha and just input the data..Version: 1.0.20

Just okThe app isn’t too bad in of itself. It would be better if you could incorporate other tracker apps, so that you don’t have to double track everything. Connect with Health app would be ideal.Version: 1.7.2

11 page EULAI just downloaded this app and I amazed that the VA would include a 11 page EULA (emailed to myself for reading later). Seems a little bit complicated for my taste. I entered my data, not sure what else to do. I track runs and other work with Strava and other apps. I will give it a week before deleting. 11 page EULA..Version: 1.0.10

Not Ready for Prime TimeWhile I saw lots of information and tracking capabilities, I will delete this app. The main reason for this action is the diet tracking section. The search function is barely usable - and sometimes using different key words will yield results that were precisely what I had first entered but for which no results were returned. If there is a way to "create" a food and save it along with its caloric value, I couldn't find it but it would be a welcome respite to the tedious search process. Even more frustrating was the fact that I could not edit a previous day's diet entry. If I failed to "log" a late night snack on Tuesday, and it's now 0004 on Wednesday - well, too bad! No, I might look at this app again in six months or so for any improvements; but as it is today - it's not ready..Version: 1.0.15

Neglected AppThis app suffers from neglect. It regularly crashes on my iPhone 6s Plus running iOS 13.3 current version. The only way to let the developers know about app bugs is through the VA MOVE! program, rather than directly contacting the devs..Version: 1.0.21

Work good till they removed food and active log.I was tracking my active and calorie intact each day. It really helped. In the new update they removed it. Now it basically useless because it just the book online with less information. Would give zero stars..Version: 1.2.1

UpdateWhy would you take out diet and activities tracker. That was the best part of the application and now it’s not worth the data to send my review. Completely trash now..Version: 1.2.1

App is brokenApp breaks at week 12 chapter 2. Will repeatedly shut down the app. Also. The app isn’t all that helpful and the lack of anyone to report this bug to is a huge oversight. Essentially a wasted effort so that the VA can pretend they tried to do something..Version: 1.7.0

UPDATE PLEASE ! !I started using the app and noticed that I can't update the food after midnight for the previous day. What if you wanted to add something you forgot you had eaten and add it anyways.... It puts it down for the next day messes everything up. I haven't tried entering yesterday's exercise either but I'm guessing I'm going to run across the same problem. Seems shame to give up on updates :(.Version: 1.0.15

Not anybody’s dream app!Ok, I tried it for 2 weeks - until I discovered that the Move! App was “charging” me more than double the calories on my carton of almond milk. And entering a recipe is impossible, because the app assumes that the whole freaking recipe is 1 serving - like, 1,000 calories for a recipe that serves 8. I couldn’t possibly eat the whole thing! It also seems overwhelmingly weighted in favor of fast food, not homemade, fresh food unless you want to enter every single ingredient separately. In single serving portions. Was it a good idea? Absolutely. Too bad the execution didn’t come close to measuring up. The “favorites” function is all but useless. Oh, yeah. I had to download an additional app to track my blood pressure - which, for some of us, is kind of a big deal. You might think that’s not much trouble, but, trust me, it is..Version: 1.0.17

Doesn’t work rightApp won’t allow me to add my height / weight to move on......Version: 1.2.0

Doesn’t workCan’t see information on it. Typical VA app that doesn’t work like it’s supposed to. Disappointing!.Version: 1.1.0

MOVE participants: Good; needs workAs a MOVE participant since 8/25, this app is a good move: the pages of the large book we were given is in this app - so no more carrying the book, phone, cane, water bottle, etc., to meetings. BUT a wifi connection or data service appears to be required during the meeting to access the pages. The app includes extra support & encouragement as well as logs/journals. I have been using myfitnesspal premium & will continue to do so. Both have benefits/drawbacks: mfp has the large database of food choices (drawn from participant input & brand references) so the right numbers aren't always quickly avail. COACH is just starting out. It appears that mfp is easier to manipulate goals but COACH helps you develop realistic goals in everyday language. As I learn my way around COACH, I'll try to update the review. For new MOVE participants I would say take the MOVE (it's free) & take your time deciding if another is right or better for what you need to do. (I don't share from either).Version: 1.0.15

Really Bad!!Typical VA DYI! There are several good apps that could be used for this program. VA chooses not to pay the going freight. Instead hires someone who can’t do the job. Penny wise and pound poor! As usual vets get the short end..Version: 1.2.1

One wordJUNK!.Version: 1.0.21

We need this app to workThis app has serious potential upside! Unfortunately it does not function on my phone (15 pro max). Please assign or hire app developers in the IT department. I want to get in shape, and stay in shape, without worsening my disabilities. I will gladly change my review rating when I see noticeable improvements, and I’m not giving up on you!.Version: 1.7.3

Can Be GreatI have been using “my fitness pal” app. It is a good app but the MOVE app has really good tool to add food. It has all you need. If this app could link to ‘my fitness pal” it would be great.....Version: 1.0.20

This App used to be easy to understand.This app used to be user friendly, but now it’s garbage. Even looking online to try and use it doesn’t help. This app had previously helped me lose weight, but now it’s just very disappointing..Version: 1.3.0

Will not installAfter reviewing the EULA and dropping down to the very bottom of the last page ( who reads those things anyway ;-) the Cancel button sits on top of Apple's send boxes (nice going Apple support do you even test these apps?) and the Accept button is highlighted but does not continue. My iOS is current and my iPhone is the 7+. Can't wait to hear the excuses for why this does not install..Version: 1.0.15

Can't get past EULADownloaded it on my iPad. Got the end user agreement, but it won't let me touch the accept. Figured I had to scroll down to the end. Nope. Waited a short while, in case it was timed. Nope. Deleted it and reinstalled it. Same problem. Now deleting permanently. One star is much too high. I'd like to take away whatever stars someone else has given. Grrrr..Version: 1.0.15

NewThis app freezes up😢.Version: 1.0.17

Move CoachThe app is ok , however it has some bugs in it. For one you can’t unlock Module 16 even after going through every single module. You can’t unlock the last module 16. I am using an iPhone 11 Pro Max with IOS 14.1. Please fix it. Then I will update my review..Version: 1.2.0

Functions well, butThis is a good, basic health app. However, it could be so much better with integration with My Healthy Vet AND the IOS Health app..Version: 1.0.21
