Pricing noteFree to download with a free tier; a YAZIO PRO subscription unlocks the bulk of the analysis, recipes and fasting features. A large share of the public conversation is about which capabilities sit behind that paywall, so confirm what the current free tier includes and what PRO costs in-app before relying on any one feature.

Sentiment by aspect

One row per aspect. The dot is our reading of how the public conversation leans — positive, mixed, negative — never a number. Each sentence is paraphrased in our words from the linked source.

Accuracy & trust Mixed

Written App Store reviews generally treat YAZIO's nutrition figures as dependable for everyday tracking, but the food-logging communities apply the same caution they apply to any tracker — that user-submitted database entries vary in quality and should be sanity-checked rather than trusted on sight — so the read here is steady but not uncritical.

App Store reviews →
Logging speed & ease Positive

The most consistent thread in written App Store reviews is that the app is pleasant and quick to work with day to day; reviewers describe an uncluttered layout and a barcode scanner that make entering a meal straightforward, and that low friction is the reason many say they keep coming back. Paraphrased · our words, not a quote

App Store reviews →
Food database quality Negative

This is where sentiment turns hardest against the app: reviewers and posters in r/caloriecounting repeatedly report missing items, duplicate or inconsistent entries, and regional gaps where a product simply is not listed, which forces manual creation and undercuts the otherwise smooth logging experience. Paraphrased · our words, not a quote

r/caloriecounting →
Value (free tier & price) Negative

The dominant complaint across written reviews is how much sits behind the PRO subscription — reviewers describe useful analysis, recipes and parts of the fasting tooling as paywalled, and several say the free tier feels narrower than they expected, which makes price-versus-value the most contested aspect of the whole profile.

App Store reviews →
Adherence / sustainability Mixed

Reviews from people pairing calorie tracking with time-restricted eating often credit the built-in fasting timer for keeping them engaged, and that pairing is a recurring topic in r/intermittentfasting; others find the daily logging habit fades once the database friction and paywall prompts add up, so the staying-power read is genuinely divided.

r/intermittentfasting →
Sync & support Mixed

Connections to platform health services and wearables work smoothly for many reviewers, but a recurring minority report sync hiccups, lost streaks, or slow responses when they reach out about a billing or account problem, so the conversation lands as steady-with-exceptions rather than uniformly good.

What users praise

Short, sourced highlight themes — paraphrased, never quoted.

Clean, easy interface

The single most repeated point of praise in written App Store reviews is how uncluttered and pleasant the app is to use for daily logging.

App Store reviews →

Built-in fasting timer

Reviewers who combine calorie tracking with intermittent fasting value having the fasting timer inside the same app rather than juggling a second tool.

r/intermittentfasting →

What users criticise

Every profile carries real, sourced criticisms — favourites included. This block is never empty.

Heavy paywall

The most common criticism in written reviews is the breadth of the PRO subscription — analysis, recipes and parts of the fasting features are described as locked, and some reviewers feel the free tier is thinner than they expected.

App Store reviews →

Database gaps and duplicates

Posters in r/caloriecounting report missing products, inconsistent or duplicated entries, and regional coverage holes that force manual food creation.

r/caloriecounting →

Occasional sync and support friction

A recurring minority of reviewers describe sync glitches, lost data or streaks, and slow support replies on billing and account issues.

App Store reviews →

Synthesis

A neutral read of the whole picture. No verdict, no score, no ranking.

Across written App Store reviews and the food-logging and fasting communities, the public conversation about YAZIO leans favourable on its clean interface and quick day-to-day logging, and is pulled the other way by two persistent complaints: how much sits behind the PRO subscription, and gaps, duplicates and regional holes in the food database. The integrated fasting timer is a genuine draw for people pairing calorie tracking with time-restricted eating, which helps some users stay engaged while others drift once the friction adds up. Sync to health platforms and wearables works for most, with a recurring minority reporting glitches or slow support. Its App Store rating sits at 4.7, but that high store average sits alongside the specific, repeated criticisms above, which is why the per-aspect read is more informative than the single number. This profile does not rank YAZIO against other apps and assigns no score.
