Complex UI and locked features frustrating long-time users.
"This app has become too complicated to use with each update."
"They've locked all the features I used behind a paywall."
I have used this app for several years. I am at the point of cancellation. There is no user friendly dashboard, no ease of viewing the day, no ease of going back, the progress to plan is just too wordy to be useful. Nothing I like to see is available at a glance. Logging was easy and is now a chore....
You cannot copy over an entire day at once anymore. This was the backbone of my tracking. Please change it back!!!!
As of March 2026, they have changed the user interface in a way that makes this app cumbersome to use. The old interface was far more intuitive. It’s so bad I had to cancel my subscription.

They have ruined this app and I have no way to revert to the way it was before the update. I am so bummed out.

I had previously rated this app 5 stars and have used it since 2011. 15 years! This new update though is terrible! I literally don’t like anything about it.

The new layout is just awful, more time consuming and not user friendly. Please change it back or rethink this entirely
