Figwee Portion Explorer App Reviews

Would have given 5 stars but quickly realized the items do not say what they contain so the whole program breaks down, I.e. How can I reliably use the information about a roast beef sandwich when i dont know if it includes mayo or cheese or not. Once the app contains the ingredients for those type of items it will be useful, too bad because alot if effort went into it elsewhere

This is the best diet helper app that I have ever seen. Diets always use some obscure way of figuring out serving sizes, but this app uses pictures of the food in different portion sizes. Great idea and it works flawlessly.

Great app. I find it much more useful to see photos rather than try to visualize what a cup of a given ingredient looks like. Very easy to scale a portion up or down.

Inadequate. The app concept and photos are neat...but...this app is old and needs updated badly. There is only a small variety of foods in here, and the search function doesnt seem to work. I wouldnt recommend paying for this app in its current state. It needs updated/expanded badly, and I doubt some of the carb values too (e.g. the soft tacos).

Looked up lobster . . . no listing. So, I looked up seafood, and all sorts of items are listed including crab, mussels, etc., but once again, nothing for lobster. How ridiculous is that???

Hello, this is a great app, but it really need an update to be the best app. Please release the update.

App has not been updated in years. -Add more foods -Save favorites -Give an opportunity for crowd sourcing -Allow predictive text -squash a few bugs Regardless, I still use this app often. Where did you guys go???

Admittedly I havent given this app much of a chance yet, but the fact that it doesnt have "chard" or "Swiss chard" is baffling. It also doesnt seem to have the capability for users to suggest additional foods.

Just purchased this app for my I-Phone and it was well worth the small price. The app give the nutritional info for a vareity of foods, so many in fact, that I ran out of foods to test out, they were all there! And, rather then just typing in a number, theres a clever little arrow that lets you control the portion size. All this is done visually which makes it unique and fun (check out what happens when you pile up the bacon on the plate). For someone who needs a little visual stimulation while monitoring your daily calories and nutrition, or if you just want to "play" with your food a little, this is a GREAT app!!!

I really like the pictures. It puts portions into perspective.

Great app...helps portion control. Great images!

Good app lots of different foods. Well done and innovative.

Ive used figwees portioner on their website for about a year. Of course I was excited to see this app come out. It is very easy to use, has fluid screen changes and has clear, quick-loading pictures. I love the concept and I love this tool, putting it on my iPhone just makes me love it more. Thanks for a great app!

So often Ive wondered how much food is actually there so I could enter it into my calorie tracker app. This app provides a great visual way of knowing that without having to check a computer etc.

Great way to keep from cheating on our portions! Thanks for this very useful and user friendly tool! Now I have no more excuses!

What a clever app. Well worth the price. And very helpful.

Perfect companion for calorie counters. This app takes the frustration out of guessing how much youre eating. Even when what youre looking for isnt there, you can at least see how much a serving is from something similar.

The perfect app for anyone on Weight-watchers or any diary-based weight loss program. Allows you to visually scale portion size until you find what matches your plate. Perfect for restaurant situations!

Good graphics and good idea of a portion but I would like to see mineral content and fiber grams

OK, app looks great...But really - alcohol (assumed not to mean sorbitol & other sugar alcohols but rather ethyl alcohol) & cholesterol counts on even the fruit items w/o Potassium amounts? Please add in a future update!
