Baritastic - Bariatric Tracker for Negative User Reviews
✓ Mostly great!I love his app. It helps me so much. It’s very Americanised though. I would be good to be able to have kilojoules as an option and not just calories and also add water in ml increments rather then the set ones. Also would be good if I could link it to my Aussie Facebook support group. Still an excellent app for tracking! I will continue using this 👍🏾.Version: 1.95
✓ App will not openI’ve hardly used this app it won’t open . I just get the picture with tape measure.Version: 1.97
✓ Recipe/Meal Builder needs enhancementsI find this app easy to use for tracking individual food items, however, it falls short when creating meals. The worst part about it, is that after taking the time to enter all of the ingredients and saving the recipe/meal, you can’t edit it. So if you make an error or tweak it the next time you make it, you have to re-enter the entire recipe and save with a new name. This is a major defect for anyone that cooks their own meals and it’s daunting to add meals, which means that there is a higher chance of customers not actually tracking meals that needs to be built. It’s a missed opportunity all around. That is also an important tool for learning how to optimize meals by tweaking and seeing the resultant macros. Please fix this..Version: 3.51
✓ Recent UpdateSine the update 6 days ago, my time stamp won’t enter the time I select. It only logs the present time ☹️. Please fix. I really like this App..Version: 2.61
✓ RecipeWhere can I create a recipe so I know the protein in small portions?.Version: 3.61
✓ Unreliable - great when it works but that’s not oftenConstantly crashing and unable to connect. Has happened 6 times in the last two months. People use this app dozens of times a day to help them track their intake and being so unreliable means you have to have a backup system. Get whatever tech gremlins are causing this sorted please.Version: 3.43
✓ Can’t get past the first screenKeyboard will not show up so I can enter actual and goal weight. Only option is next button..Version: 2.38
✓ A few updates will make it fantasticThe app is user friendly and links up nicely with my Bariatric nutritionist. There are a few tweaks in my opinion that would make us happy. (1) Nutritionists allow us to count protein shakes, Gatorade zero and herbal teas as water intake. This is standard across most Bariatric plans. I do not like to enter those as snacks and not see it under my water total. If it’s a protein shake then yes it is a meal and needs to be logged as that but also needs to be tallied in the water total at the same time. (2) It would be great to have the app give us more recipes. There is a limited selection. Maybe import a lot more and make a library of them. More is better. I think these adjustments would make this a 5 star app. Seeing these improvements would definitely move my rating to 5/5. Having this on Apple Watch would be awesome..Version: 2.74
✓ CumbersomeWhile this app is designed to help bariatric patients the functionality is basic. I cannot for the life of me figure out why this app would not interact with or be compatible with MyFitnessPal. The 2 most irritating features is the inability to log food in a quick and concise manor and the inability to properly log workouts. I have to go on MyFitnessPal and then copy the information in this app. It does not make we want to log anything. Most times the food I want to log is not even in this app which is goofy. I don’t want to spend 15 minutes trying to figure out how to log a meal. That’s ridiculous! 2nd if this app interacts or has a plugin with the Apple Health app then why doesn’t it log the workouts properly. It haphazardly logs a workout. There is not calories from workout taken into consideration or even track for that matter. My daily activity doesn’t show on my report. My active calories burned and exercise does not even make it to my doctor for an accurate picture. Since I’m forced to use this app instead of MyFitnessPal by my doctor I prefer it to be complete with similar functionality. Please fix these plugins..Version: 3.36
✓ A few fixes and this app would be great!!This is a good food tracking app but having used others, there are features that I miss which have me contemplating going back to a previous app. The food database is limited compared to similar apps. You cannot simply look up a food item to see it’s nutritional value; you have to go through the log feature and act as if you are added a good fist. You can crest your own recipes but you cannot share them with another registered user, or follow friends for they matter. Those features added would make this app a 5 star rating without hesitation!.Version: 3.34
✓ Terrible appThey don’t update newly scan items into the system Lots of errors that aren’t corrected when reported They don’t answer emails Would love to create a recipe from a recipe, so if I make home made sauce and use it in a homemade lasagna for example When creating a recipe and your scanned item doesn’t show you can’t do a quick add I’d love to be transferred all this data to fitness pal..Version: 2.35
✓ Synching doesn’t workI have always used my iPad Mini AND my Samsung phone to enter my meals. For the past few days, the meals won’t sync between the 2 devices. My phone shows all my ,ears since Nov 2020 and my iPad shows no meals the past few days. Very frustrating! Looking for other tracking options. I really love Baritastic but not if I can’t track my meals. It’s not a total synching issue though...I entered my weight on my phone and the lower weight appeared on the iPad...it’s just the food intake screen that doesn’t update..Version: 2.81
✓ Valuable App But Lacks an Intuitive ExperienceThis app has everything you need to help you succeed before and after bariatric surgery. For those of us going through the process, we know how difficult it can be to monitor our water, vitamins, food choices, chewing time, etc. This app helps you to achieve all of these goals. BUT, the app is not intuitive. The interface is not simple. It does not support learnability or memorability. It is not easy to accomplish basic tasks the first time you use it. If you don’t use the app for a week or two, it is difficult to reestablish proficiency. The bottom line is that the app is an extremely valuable tool to get you through all of the moving parts of the bariatric surgery process. But, I recommend you start using it well in advance of your surgery so that you can used to it..Version: 2.73
✓ Soo no longer opens “check internet connection”Hi Please help. I have internet access but soo just won’t open it just says…. “please check internet connection”. i’ve tried wifi and 4G. nothing is working Thank you.Version: 3.17
✓ About to delete…I used this app everyday for 3.5 months and it was great, but now the updates have made it extremely buggy. Half the time the scanner doesn’t work right. When I go to edit units I now have to delete everything when putting in a number where as before it would override. The decimal function is worse bc you always have to start with a number (even 0). They moved the add food button. But what’s the worst is half the time the app crashes or says to check MY internet… My internet is just fine, everything hooked up and every other app is working just fine. It’s this app and it’s becoming annoying that I can’t use it like I used to. I wouldn’t mind the scanner, decimal and number feature, or the add food feature changing if the upload actually worked. You guys really need to fix this update asap or you will lose another user..Version: 3.43
✓ This is a great App if it works all the timeI started the app I thought it was great, went through all the trouble to enter all my details but now it has stopped working and can not open it 😔.Version: 1.37
✓ The app stopped workingAfter the most recent update, I can’t log in and when I delete it and redownload it says my email doesn’t exist. The app was great when it worked…..Version: 3.50
✓ Needs to have metric measurementsI think this is a great app, but I won't use until it allows metric measurements. Needs to be usable for Australia ! Come on Baritastic make it metric friendly !.Version: 1.21
✓ NutritionThe app is good to track what I am doing. The problem is trying to input the nutritional values. You have no online charts to refer to and taking pictures of codes on products is easy as long as you approve it. You have to realize people live in other countries but I thought it would be no problem living in Canada..Version: 3.60
✓ What happened??I would normally give this app 5 stars because I love it, however, since last night I’ve been unable to get into it. It kept giving me a “check your internet connection” even though everything was fine with my internet. During the night, my iPhone installed an update and now this morning I was still getting the same thing on the app so I went in and uninstalled and reinstalled it. The app looks different and now it won’t even let me sign in. This is extremely frustrating because I depend on my tracking to help keep me on track with my water and eating! What is going on with this app?? PLEASE don’t make me go back to MyFitnessPal!!!.Version: 3.43
✓ Not badAll of my measurements have suddenly messed up and aren’t showing the previous correct measurements. It’s really upsetting because I loved tracking my progress after weight loss surgery and now I can’t..Version: 3.1
✓ Won’t loadWas really loving the app, very user friendly. Was trying to log in my meal and the app wouldn’t respond (open). Deleted and reloaded app and now can’t even log in… help..Version: 3.43
✓ Not set up for people with vision lossI tried to use this app starting in the fall of 2019 however, I realized quickly that I could not use it because this app is not screen reader friendly for people with vision loss or who are blind. 2+ years later, I am back to try to use it again and there have been no changes made and it is still very poor. I cannot find certain buttons on the app because no one has programmed this app to tell me what the buttons are. For example, I cannot find the button to log my food or track it in anyway except by adding a note. I cannot add my water or track my food etc. I really don’t even know what else I’m really missing. I would really like an app that I can use like a regular person..Version: 3.3
✓ Recent update messed it up!Now after recent updates I can barely get the app to load. And when I it does load I can’t log any food. This update messed it up. It keeps saying it can’t connect to the internet. I’ve tried turning off Wi-Fi and even just using my mobile data but nothing works. Before this I would have given it 4 stars. Because while it’s good it can be a bit hard to use. It takes more effort. But it was worth it. Now if things don’t get resolved I’m going to have to change to another app. Because logging my food intake is very important. It helps me know if I’m getting enough protein and fluids which are crucial since I had gastric sleeve surgery a lil over a year go. Please fix the app!! I’d rather not have to find another app..Version: 3.43
✓ Please make it more user friendlyI love this app, I really do. And it’s pretty easy to use, but there’s a definite learning curve. I have a couple suggestions: -retool adding measurements. As it is right now, I have to follow the order of measurements as it’s presented in the app. Provide the option to type in the measurements vs. having to sideways scroll through the inches. -in the weight section, provide an actual chart vs a list of weights logged. - in reminders, add an option for the app to remind every Xx minutes, XX hours. Give the option of a duration for the reminder. I.e- remind me every 4 hours m-f for 6 months. And an option to silence the reminder between sleep hours. -remove checklists completely. -finally, give me the option to use my flash, or not, when scanning UPC codes. -add a section in the journal to track blood sugar and A1C, just like I can report my BMs, mood and hunger- I use the free space to record whether I experienced dumping and what caused it. - or Make it possible to chart blood sugar and A1C..Version: 1.86
✓ Like the easy way of loggingDon’t like that it’s oz.Version: 2.65
✓ Not workingBeen trying to log in my daily’s and it won’t load. I deleted and redownloaded and now it won’t log on. Otherwise this is an amazing app. Please fix these bugs!.Version: 3.42
✓ Should be great but...This app is overall very well made. It has all the features you need after bariatric surgery including water logging for free. It tracks macros well. It’s intuitive and easy to use. So why only 2 stars? A lot and I mean a lot of the nutrition information is wrong when you add a food that’s in the database. There’s also a lot that’s not there at all. To address this they have a very handy “request a product update” feature that allows you to take a picture of the product and the package. You also use the same thing for products not in the database. Okay you say so still why 2 stars? Well it appears these updates go to an unused folder somewhere at the app developers offices because I’ve requested the same items updated many times over months now and nothing has been fixed. The new items I eat that are not in the database? Yeah they have never been added either. It’s really to bad. This app would be great if they kept up to date with the proper nutrition. If you use it be careful. You could end up quite a ways off on your macros by just blindly trusting their data. If they ever start to update products again I’ll revise this review..Version: 2.51
✓ App stopped working and can’t reach out for helpMy app worked great until this afternoon when it stopped letting me log my food and water. It just spins forever and when it finally stops, nothing has been added. When I tried to submit a help email, it did the same thing and never submitted. So I come to the App Store to see if I can send a message to support but it just opens up the app that never opens or does anything if it does happen to open. It keeps telling me to check my internet connection, which is perfectly fine. I’ve updated the app and that didn’t help, my phone is updated and that didn’t help, I even turned my phone off and back on and the app is still not working. What do I do now? Can someone from customer service or support help me?.Version: 2.79
✓ Good app, but not great.Just downloaded as I wanted to see how the app was, as its good for tracking surgery etc. would love to see some updates to the following: -Bluetooth Smart Scales outside the 2 options already given (eg, Eufylife smart scales etc) -All metric or all imperial measurements (there are some parts of the app like food tracking that switch to imperial instead of metric, even though most other things are metric measurements, weight under steps is also in imperial) Otherwise quite an intuitive app and hope to see some improvements in future updates..Version: 3.3
✓ Can’t Send Food LogsI have been using this app and had a couple of glitches here and there I could live with. But now I can’t send my Food Logs to my Dr. When trying to send log to my email to copy to Dr, the log won’t go to my email. I get a msg if not in my email in 10 mins, check my Spam. The log gets lost somewhere but doesn’t show up in my email or spam. I can emails log to my husband’s email and he receives the log. I didn’t have this problem before. I have tried multiple times, deleted both this app and yahoo mail and reinstalled. No luck. So frustrating. I need these logs to my Dr. The Help people can’t help. They tell me to do the things I already have tried. I explain that when I email them. Very disappointed in this app..Version: 3.30
✓ Data lossI have been tracking my measurements for 4 months through this app. I got a new phone and uploaded the app and all my measurements have changed. I can’t even figure them out by manual conversion. I am devastated as I didn’t keep note of these measurements anywhere else and have no idea where I started. I have sent several emails and was told to change to metric which I tried and didn’t work, they have since stopped responding. If you get this app keep your information stored elsewhere also..Version: 3.14
✓ Great AppI really enjoy using this app, it helps me to stay accountable, but reading through your feedback it is very clear that you have a strong Australian user presence.. like others, I find it difficult to accurately use the app because it’s so American, please consider updating your database with even just basic Australian brands..Version: 2.96
✓ Can't get it to workWhen starting the app you are asked to enter your current wright, your desired weight and your height. I enter the two weights and then every time I get to the height, the app locks up. I have tried on two iPhones and an iPad and have the same problem everything..Version: 1.3
✓ Misleading Values, Lack Of CustomizationI love the concept of this app... And it does have a lot of good things, but there are a number of things that make it not ideal. A) My number one concern is it showing me I have consumed more than I actually have. When I adjust the nutritional values with a decimal point, it rounds the number. Thus having me either consume more than it shows, or less than it shows. And having to consume a minimum (or maximum) amount, this makes the rounding a big problem. B) Not being able to use different measurements for different things is inconvenient. (Measure height in feet/inches, but want mL for water instead of oz). C) Not having more than one “snack” recording slot that shows up in chronological order of consumption doesnt make it easy to see the true daily intake and where self improvements are needed. D) Also, it would be nice if more nutritional values could be tracked..Version: 2.28
✓ Used to be greatI’ve used this app for over a year to track my journey since surgery. The most recent redesign and update is not as user friendly and the food search is suddenly MUCH more limited. For simple things like searching for applesauce it only gives a sweetened option, I have unsweetened Motts. It used to be in the app but now it’s not. Frustrating when you pack a single serve in your lunch at work but then can’t track it because there is no barcode on the container. In my “recent” foods it is showing me items I ate 10 months ago but not what I logger yesterday or last week. Hopefully it gets fixed in a future update because I can easily track what I eat in other apps that allow me to actually search, too bad they’ve ruined a great thing..Version: 2.02
✓ Nothing is AddedNone of this is Australian. Can’t even find brown onions to add. Food data base needs to be updated.Version: 3.45
✓ Pretty GoodNot a bad wee app. Very geared towards the US market, so most foods I have to manually enter in. Recipe feature doesn't seem to let me assign a serving size, and the progress graphs/charts and display could be a lot better..Version: 1.59
✓ Food listStill need a more extensive food list with appropriate nutritional information. But I like the time stamp availability which you don’t get on a lot of other apps and is good for this purpose..Version: 2.70
✓ Error with new updateHi, since downloading the latest update my app will not open. It spins like it is loading then times out and says to check internet connection, which is working fine.Version: 2.79
✓ Update messed it upI can’t even open it since the latest update :(.Version: 1.91
✓ Great app overall-lacking a very important featureOverall this is one of the better tracking apps. The barcode scan works great, and if it doesn’t recognize something, will have you send a pic of the nutrition label so they can add it to their database The feature to add your own recipes needs a lot of work. Adding foods by barcode works nicely, but the portion size does not show correctly on the confirmation screen. Typing in ingredients leaves you at the mercy of their software how a food is listed in their database. For example, if you enter “Beyond Sausage”, it only “sees” sausage and calculates for that. You need to know that the database calls it “plant-based sausage, hot Italian”. I can work around those issues though. However the biggest deficiency is that once you Save a recipe to your recipes, you can never go back to edit it. Say you make meatloaf with 85/15 burger one time, but 93/7 the next. Or you decide to skip the yogurt in your usual smoothie recipe. There is no way to go back to a saved recipe and tweak the ingredients. You have to re-enter the whole recipe again. This is a dealbreaker for me, since I never cook anything the same way twice. Love the vitamin tracking for all my post surgery requirements. Make the recipe feature editable after saving and I’ll go back immediately.Version: 2.73
✓ App not responsiveEverything was working fine until the app went unresponsive. You can click on the plus sign, but to get into adding your food, weight and all other signs you could get into..Version: 2.25

I dislike this for us….Version: 3.53
✓ The update has not improved the appThe new way it deals with the “My Foods” section makes it very hard to correctly log what you’ve had. Considering swapping to a different app now, which is a shame. It’s not that user friendly to log your goals, etc. either..Version: 1.98
✓ It’s great butIt’s easy to use, set up meals and faves, I wish it would play nicer with other apps. But the biggest annoyance is it crashes regularly. I’d use something else if it wasn’t for the fact I’ve been using the app for a year and half now, I can’t face setting up all the meals again. I’m actually surprised at how much I find that isn’t in the database. I do love how it tracks the weight lost since surgery and the measurements, pretty cool..Version: 2.44
