Total SCAM
Total SCAM! I cancelled my account and they continued to bill me for three months. I provided a copy of my cancellation and they responded that I didn’t respond to an email. NOWHERE in their policy does it say you must respond to an email. I’m still fighting for three months refund. The macro calculations are generic and not accurate. I hired a professional and my numbers were way different and I’m seeing results. Don’t waste your money !

Hi Erica! I do see that those three months in question were refunded to you. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. Our macro calculations were created by a registered dietitian and they do take into account your age, gender, height, weight, activity and goals so they are definitely not a "one size fits all" number. We wish you luck and am glad you're now seeing results!
Pretty unimpressive and inconvenient-…
Pretty unimpressive and inconvenient- (I'm in Canada) the database is not very large- had to spend a lot of time entering food labels in- and the macros didn't match. When I contacted them about this, I was tols they have experts on staff that calculate, so their formulas were exact.... pretty sure the people putting together the fresh fruit and oat cups that have labels know their own food, so.... Also no print friendly recipes- which the recipes with macro breakdown were the only reason I left myfitnesspal and PAID for this. The interface for mobile is glitchy. No refunds, and I knew by end of day 2 of my YEAR subscription that I disliked it and it wasn't what I wanted/was going to benefit me the most. Do not recommend, myfitnesspal has a bigger database, and is easier to use.

Hi Holly! We appreciate your feedback. Our database is a verified database provided by Nutritionix and has almost 1 million entries, however we are aware that it is a bit limited for our international users. We are always happy to submit requests for items to be added and hopefully you were told that as well. While our recipes aren't able to be printed directly from the app, we do have them available for print in our Macrostaxers facebook group and I'm sorry you weren't aware of that while you were a member. We do have a brand new app that just launched in the App Store and Google Play and we'd love for you to give us a second chance!
Just My Input....
I had signed up for this app and when I signed up it wasn't really what I was looking for, so I reached out to "William" and stated that I was not going to be counting macronutrients after all and decided that it was not for me after getting into the app because I felt they gave me EXTREMELY high calorie staring range for just me trying to lose weight, I mean even for losing weight slow I would have GAINED weight with that number., mind you, they don't even have an "app" you have to save it to your home screen. I tried literally that night that I signed up to get a refund and they told me that "if I needed any help using the app that I could reach out to them". I won't have any use in the app though, so that is pointless. Being in a pandemic and money being extremely tight for me right now they couldn't give me my 20 dollars back for whatever reason, because "it was tailored to my exact macros for 3 phases". I understand it says no refunds when you sign up but I thought maybe he would understand in this situation. This is complete ripoff "good value for what the app is" when you can get this stuff on myfitness pal for FREE. I've had where people have refunded me before on a month's use even when it asked the same questions this app did...

Hi Annon! We're sorry to hear that you had a bad experience. As you stated, you were aware that we have a no refund policy when signing up and you do have access to macros for several different goals immediately after sign up. Our calories are often seen as "high" because we do believe in fueling your body instead of restricting it reach your goals and have helped over 150,000 Macrostaxers do so. We do hope that you'll give us another chance as we just launched a brand new app in the App Store and Google Play!
Total Disappointment
This was a complete waste of my money. This app doesn’t do anything more special than the next macro app other than persistent advertising which works. Since they don’t offer a free trial or refunds I’m stuck with my poor decision. The “Lose It” app offers the same and more for free but if you chose to get the yearly membership it is less than a third the cost of Macrostax. Don’t waste your money

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad experience! Our app has changed a lot in the last 2 years and we have just launched our brand new app in the App Store and Google Play! We'd love for you to give us another try!
The Company is Scam
The company is a scam. They advertise services for one price and after you sign up you have to pay for a premium membership fee. I requested a refund within 10 minutes after I signed up and they refused. You are better off using My Fitness Pal for free.

Hi Michele! I'm sorry that you had a bad experience. We don't have any premium membership fees - our subscriptions are one price and include everything in the app, so I'm not sure what you may have been charged for additionally unless you bought one of our products (such as eBook or scale). We do have a brand new app available in the App Store and Google Play and would love for you to give us another try!
