1. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

   11.23 update. Do NOT like this update at all, very disappointed. please put food logging back to the home tab without having to click on another button to track. And why can I no longer see my protein and fiber for each meal? That was helpful for me as I’m trying to hit a target for each meal. Huge feature to just eliminate, as it only shows the daily total at the bottom now. The meal categories also no longer collapse/expand when you click on them. Please fix these issues.

2. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

   Not compatible with my apple computer. Why would you not be compatible with my MacBook Pro? Not getting my moneys worth from WW app as I can only use it on my phone and iPad.

3. ★★★★★other

   Trash. Don’t sign up for this unless you want to commit to it for a year! I tried it for two months and it wasn’t working for me and I cancelled the membership and they kept charging my account! I spoke with customer service and they told me I’m in a contract with them until the end of January 2027! And they won’t change the date so now I have to pay 7 more months $13 for an app that I’m not even using !!!!

4. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

   No ability to correct typos in created foods. Yes, I have to go back and recreate the food. However, the typo is still there u dear the old entry. Why this option was removed I’ll never know.

5. ★★★★★barcode scanner

   Lost its spark. I used to love this app. The last time I used it, I lost 60 pounds because it made tracking food quick, simple, and effective. Unfortunately, the changes have made it much harder to use. The barcode scanner barely works, and finding the correct food often takes so long that I end up giving up altogether. A food-tracking app should make the process easier, not more frustrating and time-consuming. It’s a shame because this app genuinely helped me succeed and used to be one of the best. I really hope they listen to longtime users and bring back the simplicity and functionality that made it so great.

6. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

   Over complicated App. Omg, I love ww but this new app is horrible! I can’t easily add a recipe from my list, those should be at the top. Yesterdays food is only easily available from the day before but if I wanna eat what I had from yesterday but during dinner it’s so complicated. So many buttons to go to 3 places. SIMPLIFY THE APP

7. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

   Too cluttered. Can you please make it easier to track? There is too much clutter on the screen, make a tab for easy tracking with nice big easy to see buttons

8. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

   New version is terrible. I came back after a couple months away and the new version is awful. It’s so hard to add my frequent foods - e.g., I eat mostly the same breakfast daily but once I select the first thing the rest of the list disappears. This makes the whole thing really a hassle to use and makes me less likely to stick with it.

9. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

   Unreliable app. For a company that’s been around for decades you would think they would invest in a good app since that is the way their members record food intake, water, exercise etc. but on my third day back on the program the app took several minutes to load, doesn’t recognize the user name and password that used for the previous two days and won’t respond to a password reset. So clearly their system is down. There is nothing more discouraging than that. Do better weight watcher. Stop investing in your advertising for diet drugs and get back to what you always did best, helping people lose weight and maintain it the natural way .

10. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Let's make an app that is as complicated as possible. Why make it easy to track your food when you can make it hard and complex? Let's hide all the most important features and make it really difficult to do the most basic things. After all, if people give up and quit WW, maybe we can all get fired and get better jobs!

    Helps a lot. Thanks. Mary E Dean

12. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Love the program, not a big fan of the app. This morning, I’m unable to see my weight, activity sleep, or hydration metrics. Not an uncommon issue throughout the week various things are buggy. The program itself is great though.

13. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Can’t recommend weight watchers in my area. The first time my husband and I joined Weight Watchers was in 1968. I still remember having to eat liver once a week!😄 Since then we have had different WW leaders. By far one of the very best has been, Julie Strauss in Foster City, Ca. Even though the environment changed from a great WW center to a cramped room in a hotel, Julie was ALWAYS positive and upbeat. She was positive and upbeat even when telling us we would no longer be meeting together due to locations being closed in the Bay Area. She shared names of many online leaders and how to find one at a time that would meet our needs. 30-50+? still keep in touch with her even though she makes it clear that she is not WW and encourages us to a online WW meeting. NO ONE IS JULIE STRAUSS. When working as a High Risk RN Case Manager, we would recommend WW when appropriate. Although retired I cannot do that but the sad thing is that I cannot recommend WW at all to those I know who would need an in person service with the personal attention and help Julie gave to “each” attendee. IN PERSON MEETINGS are 40-50 MILES AWAY….TOO FAR!!! For that reason my reading is only three. 😢 Please bring Julie Strauss back! Gaylene Mitchell Retired: RN, MSN, PHN, CDE, CCM

14. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Change it to be clearer. Not as easy as it was to track. I feel like I have to jump through hoops to track now. Love WW

15. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Recent update. The most recent review (6/22/26) has a significant bug. It will no longer display weight loss only three dots. The app needs to be revised.

16. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    The changes. I really liked the old app better. It was easier to maneuver. But, I'll get used to this one!

17. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    THE APP. The app just gets better and better. Thank you!

18. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Review. It's getting better but still difficult to remember where the apps I use are located. Too many changes even tho I know WW is trying to improve the app. The recipes are great and useful if i can remember where to find them.

19. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    New update. I still cannot get my sleep to track from my Garmin to the WW app but I manually add it. Otherwise the new update is good.

20. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    Still Difficult!. Helpful

21. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Nice update. Only problem is i cannot be in diabetic program and glp program at the same time as i could in old app! Please fix that glitch

22. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    Weight watchers power. I joined WW in 2018 and lost over 100 pounds . Using the app it has helped with cooking, tracking, encouraging me. Gave me the tools I needed to change behaviours , attitudes, that have improved my self image. The app went with me where my leader could not go. I have learned so much along the way.

23. ★★★★★bugs and confusing UI

    Changes! Changes!. There are frequent changes to the app and keeping up with these updates can be frustrating!

24. ★★★★★recipes and meal ideas

    Improving but still needs work. My number one pet peeve is the search function. It is beyond me why when I start to type in a food, the suggestions that come up are not foods that I have saved or logged recently. It is maddening. For example, when I type in Premier Protein, it brings up 5 flavors ahead of the flavor I use on a regular basis and the only flavor I have favorited. When I type in a recipe name for a meal I ate yesterday, it can’t find it. Don’t most people eat leftovers? I don’t understand why I have to go to my profile to find favorites and recipes. Why isn’t it integrated in the search with a prioritized search on those items?

25. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    Keeping me honest.. Because why lie to an app?

26. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    Great program. It’s easy to get through the different pages. It’s helpful with free foods listed. I really like the restaurant listings with the points on their foods

27. ★★★★★barcode scanner

    Getting to know. Occasional difficulties with bar codes and finding food but overall very good!

28. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    Milestone charms stopped. Milestone charms have stopped accumulating no matter how much I continue to lose.

29. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    Love the App. I want to try the speech enable tracking!

30. ★★★★★food tracking and accountability

    LOVE THIS APP!. I made lifetime back in 2018 and was so proud! Then the pandemic hit and my Mother passed and I got lost and gained 75 pounds back! WW has helped me forgive myself and get back on track! I have 27.2 more pounds to get back to goal, but this time I have learned new skills and have new tools as a result of all of the upgrades in the app! I could not have done without this app and community!❤️
