Vitamin — Log, Scan & Schedule

I recently found the Vitamin app when doing research on simple and easy to use third-party apps that integrate with the Apple Health app. A lot of the apps I found in the past have been too overcomplicated, trying to do too many things at once. Vitamin is an extremely simple and streamlined app that I have found to be incredibly straightforward and easy to use. There are definitely a few more features and tweaks that could be made to really bring out the potential of this app, and typically when an app is in that stage of development, it is extremely hard to offer feedback or get in touch with the necessary teams to make recommendations. When I suggested including an apple shortcuts integration, I got a response within a couple hours, letting me know that I had a fantastic idea and that my suggestion would be forwarded to the appropriate team. So far, this feels like a development team that truly cares about the quality of the app that they’re building and wants to maintain full integrity with it. I will 100% be continuing to use this app and I’m looking forward to seeing how it continues to develop and grow. I would strongly suggest giving it a try.

I really like the idea of this app. I just wish I didn’t have to manually type in each one. If this app was connected to an app like cronometer then I could just track my food in the cronometer app and it would be automatically updated into this app. saving me a considerable amount of time I can see myself not using this app in the future, due to having to type in everything individually every day. Since I already have to track my food it would just make it that much easier. I hope you consider to work with a company like cronometer since I love being able to just scan the barcode of my food and go.

Love the app so far, however it would be great if I can scan the barcode of a product and that information populates automatically rather than me staring at a label and inputting it manually. More control over the measurements as well, I had to input MG for something that was MCG, for example 7 mg instead of 7mcg. Allow us to type the number in rather than pressing the plus or minus sign. Some measurements allowed decimal points while some were only whole numbers, I think decimal points should be on all of them as not all vitamins measure the same. A vitamin “diary” or calendar view so I know which days I took which supplements. A daily dashboard so I know how much of a certain vitamin/mineral I have taken for the day, based on the daily nutrition value, so that I don’t overdose.
