It simply helps me purchase more product to review for the channel. Also, it's important to mention, an affiliate link is NOT a sponsored link. I paid for this product 100% with my own money and reviewed it independently. I have never received any financial compensation from manufacturers or companies for reviews. Companies never know that I'm reviewing their products before a video gets published. It makes no difference to me whether I love or hate the product, I simply tell you my candid opinion. So while I can receive commissions for referring sales to products, if you end up being disappointed with my recommendation and don’t come back to the channel, I lose my audience trust. This is why I always set a very high standard for my review process, and constantly strive to provide the best, most honest, and most helpful information.
when inputting food like chicken does it assume the cooked weight or raw? I was told if I'm eating 5 oz of cooked chicken then I had to input on the app as 6.5 oz because the app thinks of it as raw.
For both branded and common foods, unless specified, meat entries are likely to be based on raw weight. You can assume a roughly 25% reduction in weight when cooked, so what you logged (6.5 oz) is close enough. However, if you bought a rotisserie chicken, there is a food item for that which accounts for the cooking method, so you’d log the actual weight of the chicken because it’s cooked. Therefore, look for a cooking method to be listed, or otherwise assume raw weight.
Agreed. The ads are 100% annoying on the free version. Like I said, I'm not against ads, but it's practically unusable the way they have it designed right now. And ya, $20/month is far too expensive given other (better) options in the market.

The user interface is hot garbage now. I havent used it in several years, but $20 a month is wayyyy too much.
