I find it frustrating that there is No information on how to use it, although 900 recipes, l don’t ( or i maybe am being stupid)seem able to link them to me meal plan for the day, also many of the recipes are from previous books & not upto date.

I just love the app. I am like a mystery shopper in supermarkets as I just go around scanning everything that I buy!😊But it helps so much. There are times when I’m sure something is free and it’s not! But also the other way around!! Plus I love the recipes. You can find almost every meal here. Then there is the blogs, also very helpful and sometimes really funny. Also recording your weight loss is a nice way of keeping track. So yes five stars 😊

Half portions of healthy extras

Version 1.17
Please, please, please allow us to record half portions of healthy extras. Sometimes I want to split them.
Well, at least I can link to apple health now. This morning I wanted to add a recipe from one of my cook books which I know I can “create’ as a meal. However, I wanted to adapt it slightly but couldn’t do that. A recipe builder would be soooo great! Pretty please 🙏 Thanks for adding the exercise tracker. Just one more slight irritation re the food search. Items come up in a very random order and I have to often scroll down a long way before I come across even free food. Could it be arranged so that free food always comes up first on the list? Or even sort the list by how many syns are in the food with the least being at the top of the list? Definitely getting better. Three things to add to give it 5 stars. Fitness tracker - ability to connect tracker (eg Apple Health). Ability to self define the amount of food required. At the moment items on search come up in pre determined ‘portions’ e.g. 25 grams. What if you only want 10 grams? Need to be able to dial in the EXACT weight required. Same with healthy extras. Unable to select half a portion. Sometimes I want to split my A between milk and cheese. Ability to create and save own recipes and give them a Syns value. Links with above to use exact portions and would speed up adding meals to planner.

Love the App

Of what value and what is the function of the “ bookmark” in food search?
When you search for a food, using the barcode, reader or typing in and you can bookmark that food with the green flag on the right hand side of the screen , where does that information or that bookmarked food go because it does not appear in the “bookmark” amongst the foods search when you look for it

Consider it costs £65 for 3 months, I had high expectations of the app. It’s not even that the app is basic, but there are so many weird ux patterns. Why is it so complicated to copy meals over to different days. Why do I need to tap twice for a bar code scanner. The food search and bar code scanner should be two separate menu items. Also surfacing the free items would be better rather than them being half way down the list.

I have found it works for me.

I have found Slimming World very good for me and give me a not too hard way to lose weight and eat things I enjoy.
I do wish you could copy meals you have regularly without having to add everything one at a time, for instance I have the same breakfast every day and a few others meals weekly , it would make it so simple. I’ve tried using the “recipe” but it’s not for weetabix , milk, grapes, banana etc it’s really for involved recipes.
Slimming World worked very well for me last year but I’m having trouble walking so the weight isn’t coming off , hopefully I will get my leg/hip sorted and will be mobile again and start losing some weight.

It’s better but needs further improvement

It’s been a few years since I used this app and it’s definitely much better than it used to be! I love that you can find the guides to things such as your HEA & B, so many more recipes and filters, and the podcasts are very inspiring and informative!!
Things that would make this app so much more user friendly though are:
1) Predictive Text being enabled.
2) As you type in, it automatically predicts the food you are about to type based on your history and brings it to the top.
**Both of the above would make the inputting process sooo much faster!**
3) A weeks overview of your Average Syns, Speed Veg & Protien percentage with meals.
4) An area to Record Water 💦 intake.
5) A Well Done message at the end of the day and week for sticking within your Syns, Drinking enough water, Having Speed Veg with all of your meals, Getting some exercise done and achieving a loss.
**All of the above would help with motivation to stick to good habits and also give you an insight into where you need to improve**
6) Better Ethnic Foods Library. Really disappointing that the library on this app is sooooooo much smaller than My Fitness Pal. There’s a lot of food both Ethnic and not that are just not recognised!

Ok but needs further development

The app is ok but trying to actually get to the food scanner is really difficult. This is especially so when at the supermarket when you need the app the most. I tend to be fumbling around trying to access it. There should be an ‘easy to access icon’ on the main page to make it easier for the user. I think the whole app needs a more advanced dashboard so everything is easily accessible rather than the clumsy layout currently.
The app is a great start but definitely needs to be more user friendly and accessible to all users old, young, etc.,

The app is much better than it was a few years ago …however … . I would like it if some of the foods were broken down into more weights and measurements. For example a tsp, tbsp oz and g. I understand it may not be a simple as each gram per syn - but if it could be as simplified as possible that would be easier. I’d also like a recipe syn calculator- I’ve been using the app for 3 weeks now so if I’ve missed it, it’s not very apparent - but if not it would be good to put in your own ingredients to find a syn value. Lastly I’ve lost 7.5lbs in 3 weeks so I’m very happy 🥰 ps. My salmon hash recipe went down well in class - I hope you SW peeps loved it too ??? Let me know x x

Can we have some useful additions to the app?

Can I please have a way to create a “My Food” where I can make a food for several people in the app, choosing the ingredients and then show how many Syns it is for the whole, but then be able to say how many people/servings it is for? At the moment, I need to construct the food in the app (if the foods are there) and then remove them and recreate the recipe as a My Food with the number of Syns.
Also, when adding in a new food, when we add it in, can we not only show how many Syns it is for the food per 100ml/g, but then have the number of Syns per serving? For instance, I might buy 100ml of a concentrated product, but I am not going to eat 100ml of that concentrated product, because it is designed to be used for 4, 5, etc?

Improved but still room to go!

Definitely some improvements from the app I used two years ago. Ideally it would be running as efficiently as My Fitness Pal, I.E options to select multiple adds in one go, and copying meals over quickly (without it deleting other stuff already added to that day - baffling that the SW app does this!)
What I’m shocked at though is there being no option to switch to target member mode! How is this not available? How are target members supposed to accurately record their food and which route they’re following without it being available on the app. You can switch to EESP mode, and I believe there are modes for those breastfeeding (with additional HeX etc). I’m astonished there’s not an option for Target members who are maintaining and have different syn and hex allowances.

I’m 3 weeks in to my journey, picking up where I left of suing lock down times.
I’ve lost 12 lbs so far.
The App is so easy to use, the online planner is a fabulous tool, tracking on the go .. the recipe selection is huge . The Community group is fun it’s a bit Like a social media platform. If you learn the aApp as you go, hook up to the zoom meeting, and listen to the podcasts you won’t be disappointed.
Online suits me, it fab if you work shifts like me, trying to get to meetings can be difficult.
It well worth the money.. Have a Fabulous journey and I may see you in the community group 🌺🌈

I have been with u for some years and maintained my target for sometime. I don’t know the exact figures unless I make contact with Slimming World Helpline.
I have enjoyed every minute of the Slimming world and continue to learn so many things. The attendance of group is essential for you on bad days and to celebrate your successes. It is the best support ever to have someone to understand the difficulties of weight loss, food optimising & body Magic to improve wellbeing. The other most important factor is the group coordinator with their experience, enthusiasm and skills within the groups are crucial for promoting Slimming world in the best way. I plan to promote to attend Slimming World as long as I can meet my needs as well as enjoy the experience. Congratulations to the Slimming world and the future.

It’s good but always room for improvement!

Hi, I like this app but think SW could make a few improvements…
For example:
- There are a number of ‘clicks’ before your able to access the barcode scanner. Would be helpful if there was a shortcut on the menu banner… it takes a while to navigate to it which is frustrating when shopping.
- It would be helpful if the ‘breakfast’, ‘lunch’ and ‘dinner’ sections were more clearly differentiated, ie different colours, for each section or a thick line dividing areas - as it’s not particularly easy on the eye.
- it would be helpful if you could easily copy one meal to another day, without losing all of the data already recorded within that day.
- a way to record water intake (again see other leading apps).
I know SW aren’t all about ‘the app’, it’s more about the programme, however SW need to do more to keep up with other dietary apps, such as NutraCheck - which is light years ahead in terms of technology/ease of use.
- It would also help to be able to switch to ‘Target Member’ mode, which allows you to increase no of Syns/extra Healthy Extra’s, without having to add these in manually and ‘go over’ standard Sun values!
Please do more SW as this will encourage more users - I promise!
Final point, it would be great if you could introduce an Apple Watch version. Just a pint size version which maybe showed your total Sun Count and HE’s used at the time of. He kind the app.
Thanks for reading!

Would be good to have the option to specific, for instance, one hifi bar rather than having to add a minimum of two for your B. For other food groups, which do not fall into the A or B category, you can specify a quantity lower than one. However, bigger problem is now the app itself. Installed on Wednesday, created account and added membership number etc to monitor activity. However, today, the app logged me out. No problem I’m thinking, logged back in to my account and used my membership number and pin but then the app tells me ‘Card is already registered to this user’. So, no access to the app for the moment, even after uninstalling and reinstalling.
Update: amended from two to four as the after speaking to tech support, the problem was an abbreviation of my first name. All sorted now.

Great app - just a few too many taps!

This is a great app to keep track of your weight loss journey, look up syn values and find recipes easily. I deducted one star because I find it annoying that to look up the syn value of something you have to go into the menu planner first, then trough a few things… I’d prefer to be able to scan items and look up syn values as soon as you open the app itself. This is the function I use the most and need it quickly when I’m in the supermarket. It’s too much of a faff how it is currently, hidden away!
Apart from that, great app!

I love the Slimmers World app it is amazing it’s really help me to keep on top of what I eat. It’s easy access to everything that I need.
I never thought this eating plan would be so easy I have lost half a stone in three weeks and it’s all down to this terrific app. I can include my foods, when I go shoppingThe scanner is really useful because I can scan everything I buy and feel confident that I’m not eating the wrong foods and I can calculate my sins quickly in the supermarket.
I love all the recipes I’ve got quite a few.
I love the slimmers world hi-fi bars but because I am dairy intolerant it would be nice to have A dairy free option.
Some more gluten-free dairy free wheat free options would be great too. I love this eating plan and I would recommend it to anybody roll on my last 9lbs to lose. If it wasn’t for the app I don’t think I will be able to follow this so easily. LOVE THE APP

Easy to follow weight loss plan. You can eat anything you like but there are rules to follow! Breakfast, lunch & dinner with a few Syn counted treats along the way. I haven’t felt hungry at all. I’ve learnt to plan my meals so I’m not that wounded animal anymore pacing up and down outside my fridge and cupboards🤣 The biggest change I have made is cutting out the fats and sugary stuff and allowing myself the odd treat. 10 pounds lost in 4 weeks. Can’t grumble at that! Staying to class each week, for me, is important. You get so much support from your fellow losers 😉 My consultant is lovely. Inspirational, guiding, non judgemental and above all always at the end of the phone for support.

I never shop without my slimming world app and constantly use it to check the syns on the things I buy.
I’d love it if there was a easier way to hit the barcode scan button. It’s quite tricky using my phone one handed while holding groceries and if there were a quick scan feature that would be easier than having to press the back button to scan my next item. Maybe even a stand alone syn scanner app would be a good idea.
Also on my wish list would be the option to sort syn values from low to high on the search results page to make it easier to make those lower syn choices.

I wouldn’t be without it

This fantastic app is the reason I will stay with Slimming World forever! It is so easy to search for or scan foods to find out their syn values or to use the syns estimator if what you want isn’t listed yet. Logging daily food/drink/activity is a doddle and you can access dozens of recipe ideas and even get support from and offer support to other members... all of which is keeping me motivated and on track after a whole year of being on the plan. I have lost just over 6 stone so far and should reach target mid April - slow and steady is my secret.
The only thing I would change about the app is to be able to search within the ‘My Foods’ section using the search bar - at the moment that’s not possible - you just have to do a lot of scrolling! If I could search, the app would get 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I tried slimming World a few years ago but just couldn’t grasp the concept. Fast forward a few years and I thought I would give it another try and this time it worked.i lost 5lbs the first week which was amazing.
Further reading of the books and I have gained more understanding. Add on the app and being able to scan syne items is awesome Looking forward to fitting back into the other half of my clothes.
Five weeks further on and I have lost a total of 9lbs . Maintained over Christmas which was awesome. Now have five weeks to loose another 5lbs to reach my target of 1 stone. Will continue on and pay my way now. I hope to loose a few more pounds and fit Into all my clothes equally and comfortably. It’s been a very enlightening few weeks and given my mental health a much needed boost. Thank you slimming world xxx

Love having access to this app 24/7 wherever I am and available to check out what I am looking to buy! Typing it in or even scanning! I am able to see immediately which is better for me/us and what to think again! 😊 I can add my progress, my activities, and find a recipe using just one item such as ‘chicken’ and selecting it on the go so I can get what I need! Love it, love it, love it! Oh and when I am killing time in a queue for instance, I can check out other people’s stories of success! It’s a huge help to me and my husband appreciates the tasty meals I now make too! (Yes he’s lost too!😁)

This app is much better than it used to be a couple of years ago. HOWEVER, I would recommend they add a feature to be able to download your planner, export it as PDF or some other way. This would Be beneficial for new member and existing memebers alike. This would enable you to be able to share your food diary with other member and especially your consultant. It would reduce paper waste too (unless it gets printed) because you’d no longer need the food diaries in the starter pack and consultants wouldn’t need to hand as many out. I’d also like the option to keep ‘My progress’ open, so every time I open the app I can see it without having to click it. This was something that I was able to do on the old app. Maybe also find somewhere else for the ‘my action plan’ to go. You guys are doing a great job, thank you!

This app is pretty good. The food diary is preferable to writing everything you eat down and the barcode scanner is great. There are, however, a few improvements that could make it even better.
1. The ability to split your healthy extras.
2. The ability to input your healthy extra and syn allowance. For example when you become a target member and are allowed extra healthy extras and syns to help maintain your weight.
3. The ability to copy and paste foods and meals from one day to another to save scrolling through lists and having to pick one item at a time.
4. The ability to create a recipe where you input the ingredients and number of portions and it can calculate the syn value.

I’ve just joined today and I’m really disappointed that the app is so basic. Having defected from another well known weigh loss system where the app is all singing all dancing, I can’t believe there’s not even a recipe builder function where I can add ingredients then save the recipe and add it whenever we have it. I was a target member years ago and love the simplicity of the plan. The barcode reader (one of the reasons I went over to WW) is a much awaited addition, but please can we have a recipe builder function? Also, whenever I try to post in the community, whenever I press ‘done’ the screen goes completely blank. Clearly an iPhone bug. Please can this be fixed? Once these issues are addressed, I will come back and review my star rating.

I find using the slimming world app extremely useful for several reasons. I’ve never tried to get healthy in a determined organised manner and the app helps to me to organise eating, exercise, and social activities thus minimising potential pit falls. I like the scanner when shopping which helps me change my shopping behaviours . For me this is a huge psychological and behavioural change. I also like the planning and exercise elements of the app. I can look back at easily see if I’ve attained my weekly goals , where I’ve slipped up and what I need to try and modify. All of this is providing me with the motivation and visual aide to make the lifestyle and behavioural changes needed to attain and maintain a healthier lifestyle.

A huge leap forward

Having been an on and off member since 2016 I can say the app is so so so much better now. Love that you can now scan items to track it makes it so much easier and more and more items are being added from the ability to scan packaging if not currently on there.
I would suggest to make it better you have an option on the homepage for the scanner just whilst out shopping - not to add to the planner just a quick check version.
It would also be good in the long run to be able to connect with other apps; particularly for body magic. For example my Apple Watch tracks my activity into my phones activity and health section. It would be great for this to be able to connect to not have to add activity manually.

This app is great. I really like the planner and being able to record all my menu and activities. I enjoy reading the success stories. I also very much like the home page with the bar showing start weight, loss and target as a visual aide. The only downside is a very poor food search. If you don’t put in exactly the wording of the food the results can be completely wrong. MyFitnessPal has a much better library of foods, even SlimmingWorld foods. I have not been able to find Iceland SlimmingWorld foods on the search. It needs to be improved.

Great for checking syns & keeping track!

First time using the app and I’ve found it great to check syns, fill in my food diary and keep track of my exercise and weigh ins! The only downside is it’s difficult to add your own recipes by the ingredients (almost impossible), and also you can’t add fractions of your HeA & HeB - ie I use half of my milk in hot drinks through the day and half in an omelette, I have to remember I’ve used half my milk/cheese etc and not to add it again. Apart from that it’s much easier to use! Oh, and I’m a vegetarian but my family aren’t - so as I registered as a vegetarian, I only get veggie recipes when I search - no biggie but I like to make meals for us all (theres 6 of us in total) and replace the meat in my dish... so it would make life easier :-)

Fantastic but requires a memory function

The app is excellent for keeping track of food and syns. Especially when using the SlimmingWorld recipes-this is an excellent function with some tasty recipes.
It would be improved if it memorised some of the foods that I eat regularly. They are in ‘recents’ but should come up automatically to save time.
Furthermore, there should be an option to change the start weight without losing data; when restarting SlimmingWorld I didn’t change the start weight, after three weeks I learned I could reset it but it lost 3 weeks of data.
The visual loss is as much a part of the weight loss journey as losing weight.
The App is actually basic compared with what some Apps can do. Serves a purpose though!

Body Magic logging

I’ve been using the app to log my body magic activities. Please, please, please can we have a mechanism for amending entries! Sometimes I just make a mistake but often the tracker doesn’t default to today’s date and I end up logging an activity to the wrong day. There is no way (that I’ve found) to delete the entire entry, only to untick it (ie leaving it there but not completed). In the same way, if I plan ahead and enter what I hope to do, I have no way of amending it if, say, I walk for longer. Yes, I can get around these issues, but they are incredibly annoying and don’t exactly encourage planning ahead! And trying to see exactly what I have actually done can be tricky!
I am finding the app in general very useful - and keep finding bits I didn’t know were there, so thank you!

Labour intensive

Having to add your food everyday after searching for it is labour intensive. Even under my bookmarks the items are not stored alphabetically so I have to scroll down and when I type my food in the search bar whilst on my bookmarks it goes back to the main database.
The ability to be able to build my own recipes and store them would be much easier as I cook a lot from scratch. I understand that healthy extras have to be accounted for but even basic things like my own cooked breakfast or my own casserole that only uses free foods or a few syns.
Weightwatchers app is still far superior just in terms of tracking food- you need to move quickly if you want to keep people motivated.
Ww also offer activities to be synced to your tracker - I have to manually add all activities each day.

This is so easy to use, well done Slimming World. It’s taken most of the good things from the old website and added some brilliant additions like the ability to scan barcodes when you’re food shopping or going through your kitchen cupboard stock. There is so much I love about this App, especially the food planning diary but I do have one big gripe. Why can’t we split Healthy Extras in our food diary record? eg. Have 1 Hifi Bar and 2 Ryvitas? Currently you can only record 2 Hifi bars or have one and waste the rest of your Healthy Extra. Either way the Ryvitas would have to be syned. I hope that makes sense because it is so frustrating and a bit disappointing.

A lot better than the previous one!

I’ve came back to SW after 10 months and I’ve found a huge change! I really like the barcode scan option and the fact that I don’t need to physically write down what I eat anymore. There is something, though, that needs improving in my opinion.
For example, I like splitting my Healthy A over the day between Milk and different kinds of cheese, but I can’t say that I ate just 1/2 (as we can do with other food). So I end up synning my cheese on the app while still having a lot of Healthy A allowance to be used. Another thing I do is eat a slice of bread in the morning (1/2 allowance) and one for dinner (1/2 allowance), but I can’t split the amount on the app. Also, I can’t have something Like one slice of bread and 20 Pistachios and that’s a shame. It’s either the whole amount or syn it. It would be really useful to extend at least the 1/2 and 1/4 portion feature to the Healthy A and B food too! Would you please consider it? Thanks!

The app is a big let down

It could be a really powerful tool, but the search falls short of the mark and when leaving feedback for improvements they weren’t even noted. Improvements which would help - an intelligent search which looks up items as you type rather than waiting for you to press enter and look through returns, the search should take regularly used items as priority and appear at the top of the search. Reminders for things like a third speed would have been super helpful to someone who is new to this; encourage people to actually do what the books say would be a big help! Think about how users use an app, I’ve searched, selected my item, added to planner, a box appears and I have to wait for that to disappear, and to clear the search before continuing. I cook the same recipes weekly - so the ability to add my own rather than adding by ingredient weekly would also encourage me to want to use the app: the book and paper is easier - which is a let down!
All in all, so many user friendly things could be done to improve the app but the feedback seemingly is not wanted. Massive shame.

Could be better...

I have tried a few diet apps over the years but find this one is quite primitive and unwieldy compared to others like Carb Manager or MealPrepPro. Why not able to automatically adjust recipe quantities? I am single so cooking for one, yet almost every recipe is for a family of four and when I queried this was told by SW Support to “just do the math”. Why it is not possible to have the capability to easily copy over an item you ate the day before? It would also be good if you could save your favourite recipes into your own named ‘Collections’ so you can find easily. Or copying over a recipe which can be adjusted to remove or add items and saving into ‘My Foods’? Why does the app not automatically load up the current date? Why is it not possible to adjust food quantities like eating 150 grams of something instead of 100 grams? A pin wheel mode option would be helpful. The app needs to come into the 21st century. It’s too basic. It could be really good if a few adjustments were made to make it more user friendly. Once you download the Food Optimiser guides, would you really need the app and continue to pay?

I’ve been a member since 2018, and I never thought much of the old app. However, this new app has everything I’ve ever wanted from the old one, and it’s so much easier to navigate. The barcode scanner and food diary is a very long overdue addition, which has made food optimising a whole lot easier. Now, instead of scrolling through pages and pages of irrelevant search results on the old syns database, I can now simply scan a product in the shop and get the results right away, so it’s simpler to make healthy choices.
So far I have only come across one product that wasn’t recognised by the scanner, and I was given the option to send photos of the packaging to SW for them to add it on, so it seems as though the database is growing and improving all of the time.
My only complaint is that I’m currently breastfeeding a toddler, so I should only be allowed 3A choices and 1B, but by default the planner shows my allowance as 5As and 3Bs, which is meant for much younger babies. This is misleading and does make logging foods harder.

This apps is very good and has been my bible for the last few weeks - I have been able to track my food and see what I’ve eaten and when I’m most likely to binge - therefore making adjustments to my meals and needless to say I haven’t binged at all. The only down fall is that I think it needs more on the contents page (menu) of where to find things and go to for info e.g., like changing your lbs. and kilos and the community page replies could be a little easier to find in your conversation. Also I think it could be a good idea if you could copy one whole day to another, if you are having the same free food day as you did 3 days ago, rather than backtracking and having to select bookmarks.

Still some work to do to make it easy to use regularly

This app is much improved.
A REALLY useful extra thing I’d like to see would be to be able to create your own recipes (not just your own food)- it is an absolute slog to have to input individual ingredients for recipes I use regularly. Following that it is also annoying that even recipes from new books are not on the app- I understand why (wouldn’t sell many books!)- but at least if I only had to save all the ingredients once that would be amazing.
It would be good to be able to repeat recipes and food- that way I can easily use the app as a planner without spending a day inputting things- I’m sure I’m not the only one that can eat the same breakfast and lunch several times a week?!
Also, would be good if weigh ins automatically synced and updated from group into the app.
Would love it if you could export/ print off a weeks food diary to hand into slimming world consultant/ take to health appointments/ personally review. And if there was a way to save a weeks food diary to refer back to that would be useful for if I got stuck with motivation down the line so I could see what I ate to get a good loss/ refer back to a week where I felt really satisfied and happy with what I ate.
Maybe a space for before/after pictures and measurements...?!

I actually don’t like it I’m sorry, but the previous diary/planner was far more sophisticated. I like how it showed and reminded you about hea this new one doesn’t. The old one looked like the diary (from your book) told you how many free foods etc you had. It also broke items down ie if you only had half/quarter of an item it showed the syns value also the drop downs were easier.
I know it’s a work in progress but I don’t know if it’s the font or whiteness of the screen but it’s not very user friendly.
The other thing that would have been beneficial would have been to kept the diary format and link it to the consultant ie saving all those paper diaries and different people touching it. If the magazine could be digital surely the diary menu could be?
I actually loved the old app diary and if I had seen this app before rejoining I think I wouldn’t have had a countdown. Sorry

Love the app but .....

Great app, but I thought once you put food in it would be easy to look back on, but it stores it every time you use it, so end up with pages and pages of same thing so takes too long to use especially on the go, if I’ve saved a recipe/ meal that is my own it doesn’t save it for future use so that puts me off I don’t want to have to write all the ingredients out every time. It’s a great support can’t always find the things you want so hopefully the scanner will help when that arrives love the fact it will tell you if you have used your HEA / HEB
Look forward to updates. Also if your a new member there isn’t enough instruction within the app or if there not tech friendly.

The App is much improved from the last one and I find it easier to use and more useful. But I have to agree with previous comments a barcode scanner would make life easier, and to be able to save food as a favourite. I would also like the portion size to be in weight measurements grams /mls etc instead of breaking it down to half quarters etc. But it is a step forward from the last app.
I’m sure it’s not beyond your developers abilities, and as these crop up on your other reviews should be worthwhile updating the app

The app is very basic.
I like the visual circles that show what I have consumed but would love it if they showed weekly and monthly values. I could then see how my weight loss was driven over time. I would love to be able to tap on the circles and for those entries to appear in list form.
There is not enough fanfare when a goal is achieved. I want music, fireworks, dancing, virtual flowers the lot. I know some people don’t like a fuss so opt in or out of a celebration for awards etc.
I get frustrated that my bookmarks and the search entries are not in alphabetical order. Also would be great if you could filter and search on syn value, if you have 4 syns left and want a dessert you can search for it.
It should have visuals and graphs showing weight loss history and dynamic projections (manual weekly loss target, milestone dates, end goal). Same for body magic.
I could do this in a spreadsheet but I want value for money.
It could have alternative food or recipe suggestions that appear when you select a food from the search ' you like xxx so you may like this'. Same with weekly exercise or yoga online tutorials to encourage body magic.
So much more could be done to make this a living experience rather than a tool you use to see how many syns you have left.
This could be a dynamic app.

Where to start?! No barcode scanner. Very poor search and store facility. The app is split into two so you have to constantly go from one to the other to do different things and neither work well. The body magic awards above bronze do not work. The apps are full of glitches. You finally built in the ability to add activity to the newer app but guess what - you now have to do several clicks instead of one to add food or recipe or activity. Both apps are actually soul destroying!! I tear my hair out with them and probably will not renew my membership. The money spent on the app(s) compared to the money that this club makes is beyond ridiculous! I feel like I’m only paying to be able to order hi fi bars and even those are limited. Please don’t reply saying you are glad I am enjoying the app because I am not!! Does anyone at slimming world head quarters actually read these reviews?

While the app is easier to use than carrying the books around & I do use it on a daily basis, it could still be so much better even just if you address the 3 points below:
- The search function is quite poor - if you don’t type the food exactly then you probably aren’t going to find it!! A barcode scanner would quickly solve this issue - other weight loss apps have this function??
- When you do find items you can only track certain portion sizes which isn’t helpful. For example, flour is on at 25g which you can then track as 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4 portions or 1, 2, 3 etc... portions so there is no way to syn 10g or 15g or 180g (if trying to work out a full cake for example) - this would be easier to use if you could enter the amount that you are actually using and it worked the syns out.
- There is no ability to create your own recipes which, when the idea behind the plan is to cook from scratch, makes adding meals a chore, especially when you add the two points above into the mix!!!!
As I’ve said above, other programmes have apps that are a lot more user friendly & have better functionality - this app really does let the Slimming World programme down!!

This app COULD be quite good except for 1 MAJOR flaw and also 1 very annoying flaw. The major flaw is NO BARCODE SCANNER, WW and other weight loss apps have one so why not Slimming World. Reading through the reviews it’s a VERY common complaint and you always respond with some platitudes about passing the info onto your developers and then absolutely NOTHING happens. Like most people I suspect I haven’t got time to stand in the supermarket looking up everything with your poor food search whereas a barcode scanner would make things so much quicker. If your developers are incapable of solving it may I suggest that you get some new ones because this is BADLY letting you down and making your app seem VERY POOR in comparison to others.
The other flaw I mentioned is the inability to add activity within the app we are encouraged to take exercise but if you want to add it onto the planner you have to use the desktop version of the site which is pretty pathetic really.
Get your act together Slimming World this app is just not GOOD ENOUGH 😡
Re Developer response - where did I say I was enjoying the app for the most part that’s just wishful thinking I never said that. Just the usual platitudes about passing on the need for a scanner that will just be ignored the way it always is - total waste of time.

The app is ok but could be much better! Coming from a rival slimming app, I was disappointed that the community section is not as straightforward and would be better if it ran more like the Facebook set up so you can follow people and see more of a message without having to completely go into it to see if it’s relevant. I relied heavily on other members support and this is not good!
Also need to have a barcode scanner for foods and make them easier to find I put in red onion and it brings up everything but! Should link to fitness trackers and be able to add exercise in the app too. Lastly, you should be able to choose your weigh in day to fit your schedule! At £7 a month more than the other group, I expected a lot more and think I will end up cancelling after the initial 3months😥

Absolutely brilliant app. The proof is that I keep remarking to my husband “this app is sooo good”. The daily planner is very simple to use. Love all the recipe ideas which you can bookmark to use later. Love the way you can add the whole recipe in one go to your daily planner without having to type all ingredients. The little HE and syn wheel symbols at the top of planner provides me with a quick visual opportunity to see where I’m at in the day. If the food I’m searching for doesn’t exist I look for an equivalent although I appreciate there’s a facility to add new foods. The only improvement I would like to see is a bar-code scanner as I’ve use this facility on other apps and it does save so much time. Overall though - I’m really enjoying this app. Thank you for developing it.

It works if you stick to it ...I used to go to class I felt I wasn’t getting the response from my consultant all I felt I was doing was paying my fee and going so decided to do sw at home , had surgery so cant drive at mo and can only get to evening class not nice in the dark ...so my weight is creeping up and summer is around the corner ..I can hope ...finding my way around the apps is getting easier and finding healthy extras is good too... I know how to do slimming world but nice to have the online forum to chat ...it would be better for the barcode ..searching for foods is a bugbear and a new start day the next day would be better ...just a thought for you app developers !

Good but could be better

I did group class a while back and lost what I needed and kept it off for a while but it crept back on over the past two years, I don’t have time to go to group, I did join online but there was a million apps to download so I cancelled, the other day I discovered it was all in one app and I could pay through apple... I’m so far loving it but would love to see the following added..
a barcode scanner, the ability to pay monthly through apple, it’s a lot to pay 3 months up front,
A finished logging button once you’ve done for the day and when a new day starts it automatically takes you to the new day when you open the app,Being able to add HEA/Bs & syns directly from the icons at the top and being able to connect Apple Watch or similar and track body magic, apart from that I’m very happy that SW is now all in one app

Good but could use some tweaks

This app is handy to use instead of me having to write things down however, it would be good if you could add a dashes of milk to come out of your A allowance such as for tea rather than it counting on the app as 1/2 Syn. Also if I use only half an allowance of milk for my cereal it doesn’t recognise it as a half it still says 0 of 2 used, same if I use half a B and use another half later, it doesn’t count it until it’s all used.
Also a water count would be good to ensure we’re drinking enough glasses of water!
Update: would also be useful if you could select the date and amend it to view a previous day rather than having to arrow through or see it like a calendar to select dates
Update 2: what happened during the upgrade??! Why can you no longer use half or even quarter portions of Healthy Extra A’s but you can still do so with B’s and also the 30g bag of Nestle White Smarties Buttons has 12 inside, so 12 at half a syn each is 6 syns but you have the 30g as 7.5 syns on the app. This is incorrect!!
I don’t think the upgrade was a good one, it’s now a lot slower than before...dropped a star for me I’m afraid

Needs a bit more

This has been really helpful for me starting back on my Slimming World journey. I love being able to track what I’m eating at a few taps, and see at a glance how much of my HEs and Syns I’ve used each day. There seems to be a wide selection of food and recipes searchable from various shops, and including from the SW booklets etc, but as another reviewer has said it would be helpful if the search results came up in Syn order value with common free foods first.
It would be great if the activity tracker for Body Magic that appears on the website could be incorporated into the app - it’s so easy to miss little bits here and there when by the time you get to log on to the desktop site you might have forgotten about them, just like what you’re eating.
I made a mistake after my weigh-in last week and put my target loss for the coming week at 2st instead of 2lbs - obviously my own fault for clicking through too quickly and not reading the prompts properly, but an option to edit it would be nice, as now I’m stuck with it until next weigh day, I assume...
All in all I’m loving using it, but feel it could be better in a few places!

What have you done!!

I am an ex member who rejoined a week ago as an online slimmer. The old app was great....syn calculator, loads of recipes and easy to input your weight. This one is rubbish ! It doesn’t open, there is no syn calculator that I can find, no access to the shop if you want to buy recipe books , to find out values in shop bought products you are reduced to using the community section IF you can the app to open. I can’t even delete the thing to try to reinstall it. Weighed myself, have lost, but no way of entering the loss. I’ve managed to open it only 3 times in a week!! I’ve paid good money to join SW, so please sort this out!!
