App Broke

I just update your app and all it does is clock, I cant sign in, I cant reset my password, and this was after updating it. After I updated it, I tried to log items and it just clocked. I deleted the app, re-down loaded the app, and then get this at login screen. Your update broke it. Now it doesnt work at all.

Nah..

Used it for a few days. Disappointed that you cant log activities. It does have a step counter, but I currently have no device to sync to count steps as many others, so it was a waste of space on the app. The items are not verified and many of the carb counts were incorrect. There is not as much variety as with other apps as far as counts for restaurants. I deleted the app, and Im now enjoying myfitnesspal.

Almost good

Constantly asks me to log in and takes forever to do so. Good idea and it links well to Fitbit, but half the time my info wasnt there even though I had logged it. Very buggy. Work on it!

Good thing its free

Glitch and unreliable. Crashes, wont allow me to log in, doesnt update after adding and/or removing entries I. The tracker

Update does not work :(

App is great... Until last update ... Now it hangs up and gives an error message every time you try to add to a meal.. Please fix :(

Cant Even Log On - App Frozen

I cant even log on since this update happened. I am 100% sure I am entering the right credentials, and I reset my password several times just to be sure. It consistently doesnt work and wont let me on at all.

Atkins app needs major quality improvement

My account suddenly disappeared. Will not let me set up a new account. I am greatly disappointed. Would not recommend.

Not working

Was working really good but now I cant log in. Says wrong password and it wont email me a new one. Just shut down.

All Data Lost!!!!!

This app worked OK for the most part. I used it for two months which help me lose 21 pounds. However this latest update wiped out everything. All the foods that I scanned and everything that a log was completely wiped out. Even the Atkins.com website lost all of my data. Unbelievable!!! However this was a mixed blessing as research led me to find a different app called My Net Diary. That app is much easier to use and has a larger database and provide much more detailed information.

Best carb and calorie daily app

Easily track daily progress on dashboard. Load meal item easily by search or simple bar code scan. Not sure what folks are complaining about, it works flawlessly. Good luck!

Needs lots of work

The crux of the Atkins lifestyle is in accurately and consistently tracking and monitoring carb intake. The database in the back end of this app is a train wreck, as others have mentioned. Without that being thoroughly scrubbed and corrected, this tool is just about useless. The app should also strive to mirror the web version as much as is possible, for example there is no way to track water consumption in the mobile app or to graphically display progress.

Needs lots of improvements

Saw Atkins ad on TV with a free app. Trying to decide between it and joining Weight Watchers. Have lost weight on both programs in the past. Most recently with WW using their app. No comparison between the two apps -- WW wins hands down. You can add an item in this app but it doesnt allow you to add it to a favorites. If you search (to use it again) it doesnt find it. Scanning the barcode resulted in no findings. No way to track exercise if it isnt walking. Or if you have an exercise device that is older without sync capabilities. The screen freezes on different areas and will not unfreeze or allow you to "go back". I tried to submit feedback but cant get the screen to maneuver down to the area. The intro to the app prior to entering my data said you could just "shake" your phone which would get you to the feedback area. Wrong. It doesnt work either. Terrible app and frankly Atkins should be ashamed to have their name attached to this. They need a new app programmer. I frankly do better with weight loss on Atkins so was hoping this app would be beneficial. It isnt.

No HealthKit Support

It would be the best health app available, but instead I have to give it only 1 star, because it does not appear to have support for Apples HealthKit, so that I can sync in my exercise data from my Jawbone device. It seems to have some independent method of attempting to connect directly to fitness devices (which ones are supported, or how to sync them is unclear to the user). The entire purpose of HealthKit is to provide a software layer that makes health data device agnostic to health related apps, avoiding the need to provide direct support for each individual device; the devices manufacturer can make their own HealthKit enabled app to sync the devices data, as Jawbones Up app does.

Terrible app/ useless/ waste of space

Never recognized foods or scanned items. It doesnt sync with Fitbit. Pretty much useless. If I could have the option of zero stars. Is anyone even reading the suggestions?

Good, but Carb Nite/Carb backloading is better

This is way more complicated than it needs to be. Ill stick with DH Kiefers CBL protocols.

It has potential

For tracking Atkins its most spot on for net carbs. That part I like. The app just needs some major updating especially to anyone who has used MyFitnessPal or FitBit.

Was working

This app was working fine now it crashes instantly.

Deleting this app

My Fitness Pal is a much better tracker for calories and carbs.

No longer works

Come on people! I depend on this app. I have a brand new iPhone 6s Plus AND a brand new iPad and it crashes on both

Rarely works

This app crashes more than it works. Awkward search features and totally undependable. Website is no better.
