   Buy through App Store only. Saw an ad on IG thought oh that’s cool, $15/month not bad but then went to download app in App Store and was offered $35/year that’s a huge difference and I feel like I was ripped off lol

2. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Not worth it. I was being charged almost $50 a month!Definitely not worth it.

3. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Terrible. The AI called chicken potato chips. It said a 60 calorie low carb tortilla was over 2000 calories.

4. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Was amazing, now broken. Got kicked out of the app, every login method said no user account, support said make a new one - now 30 days of data have been erased and support has gone quiet. This is a paid app? If y’all can’t secure user’s data then it’s worthless.

5. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Be careful with the subscription. The perks itself are fine, but beware of the payments. It offered me 2.99 a month for a subscription which I then payed for and I was charged 35.99 for the whole year. I have tried to contact customer service but there is no way to send it. I am very disappointed because I had high hopes considering the looks of the app.

6. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

   not accurate. the calorie tracking is off by hundreds, it’ll tell u that u consumed more calories than u actually did

7. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   App sucks. I tired to cancel my subscription and I can’t find any where in the app where it mentions subscriptions or how to cancel it ….it doesn’t show up in my subscriptions in the App Store….i sent the company multiple emails telling them to stop it and no reply back….its a huge scam

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Scammers!!!!. I canceled this useless app months ago and all of a sudden am getting fraudulent charges on my Apple Pay from them through the company Peddle. DO NOT USE THIS APP!

9. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

   Do not buy. I saw this ad multiple times and decided to download it because I wasn’t too happy with my current calorie tracker. I did not like this app thought it was hard to manage and very inaccurate when tracking.

10. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

    Inaccurate. Calories, carbs everything inaccurate

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Was hopeful, disappointed. I was hoping to find an app that would motivate me more than the one I currently use. The errors with the nutrition and calories take more time to fix than they are worth. I wish I could get my money back.

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Extra expense. Will not let me proceed to use the app without charging me for extras

13. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Take advantage of you. My subscription is canceled and has been cancelled yet they keep charging me week after week. They claim they can’t find my email but at this point I think it’s a scam to keep charging. The app is ok but the problem after canceling is terrible. They are literally stealing from me right now.

14. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Non existent customer service. I cancelled the app with ample time and yet they are still trying to charge my credit union. There is no phone number or customer service to talk to. I am filing a complaint. If I cancel a subscription you should not charge my account. This will be disputed, not worth the trouble.

15. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Scammers. This app is a fraud, they will continue to charge you despite following all directions for cancellation. They also make it impossible to contact them for support.

16. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Paying for an app that I can’t use properly not use. Not only did I pay for the use of the app, but I also paid to have the pro account. I went to track my first meal in it this morning and it’s telling me that I do not have a pet and it’s giving me an error and not letting me track so I am paying a ton of money for an app that I cannot use and I am not happy with that. I emailed Support and they can’t give me a timeframe on when this will be fixed. They just said that there’s a fix in progress. I do not feel that this is acceptable considering I paid what I paid.

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Calorie tracker. Meal log in and calorie trackers really sucks

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Scam. All this app has done is take money and then try to take more. It’s just a scam that preys on those who want to lose weight. Don’t try it, at every turn it will try to get you to pay more and doesn’t give you the option to refuse.

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Garbage. Acts like it’s free until you answer a million questions then you have to pay to use it.

20. ★★★★★trial charges and refunds

    One week trial is not really a week. I signed up for a one week trial, but it charged me for a full year immediately. AI food detector doesn't really work either

21. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Can’t delete. Payment is impossible to remove or cancel. Don’t use

22. ★★★★★inaccurate results and incorrect data

    Good idea but. It’s really not accurate at all and not the most user friendly. I also don’t like the screen after scanning the food, it always comes up in ounces. Too expensive for what it is.

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Estafa. Cobran sin razon no uso esto nose como intentando sacarme 66 dólares de mi banco

24. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    SCAM STAY AWAY. Cannot STOP subscription no matter what login method, does not even show email for customer support, total SCAM

25. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Sneaky company plz read. I am extremely frustrated with Bite Pal’s customer service and billing practices. I originally signed up for what was supposed to be a $35 annual fee. Instead, I was charged twice on the same day and have continued to be charged $35 monthly. Every time I contact customer support, I am told they cannot find my account, yet they somehow have no problem continuing to charge my card. I have provided information and attempted multiple times to resolve this issue, but I have received no meaningful assistance. If you cannot locate my account, why are you continuing to take payments from me? I have never been able to properly use the service, and I have no confidence that this company is handling customer accounts correctly. At this point, I want all future charges stopped immediately and a resolution to the unauthorized recurring charges. Customers should not have to fight this hard to cancel a service or get basic support. Very disappointing experience.

26. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Waste. Paid for premium and the app can’t even scan labels and input the information correctly. And you can’t “create” your own meals. You have to use the AI to take a picture of the meal and hope it guesses the correct information…it never does. Or you have to add each ingredient as a “snack”, but there’s no way to enter individual ingredients and their information to create a meal. Just get myfitnesspal.

27. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Would give 0 stars if I could. Not helpful at all. Company too worried about making money than reputation and helping someone get a refund on a subscription that had been cancelled but kept getting charged anyways.

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No estoy satisfecho. No puedo ingresar mis comidas

    Game-ify your eating disorder!. See how long you can starve yourself with a cartoon raccoon's help! This app is predatory and dangerous. Neurodivergent people are already at a higher risk of eating disorders, the most deadly mental illnesses. We don't need another food diary app promoting starving to an already vulnerable population. It's also no coincidence that fasting tends to be promoted during recession periods. Manipulating food and education surrounding it, are common ways that people with power maintain power (ex. Cults like NXIVM, the Remant Fellowship). So instead of starving yourself to make rent, or developing an eating disorder from a fad, nourish yourself the best you can. Our bodies and brains need fuel. A raccoon that tells someone to starve themselves, even for "intermittent fasting," isn't helping them achieve health goals. It's creating a sickly population in a time of economic and political distress, which is the real goal. Starved people will have a much harder time fighting for their rights compared to someone who is nourished.

30. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Do not buy this app, waste of money. The AI is soooo inaccurate when guessing calories and you cannot accurately change the time of eating yet it has a timed eating feature? This app is not working for me. Also fasting does not work with my life, schedule or athletic needs and the advertisement on how helpful the raccoon is does not match the app at all. I want my money back and to cancel my subscription immediately. This app is trash, get Noom or another app instead.
