I’m new to the Faster Way program, so am not here to review it, rather I have a couple of comments for the developers about the app. First, for the most part the app is very intuitive. Everything required for tracking food and exercise is on the app, as well as dozens of resources at your fingertips. The app is attractively designed and easy to navigate, except…. PLEASE update the food log. Users should be able to add custom weights and measurements to their food. For example, if I’m weighing chicken, the only options I have for weights are pre-set. The only option to adjust the weight is to adjust how many servings of a specific weight I am logging. If I’m having 5.7 ounces of chicken, there should be an option to manually type “5.7”, rather than figuring out how many of the FW pre-set servings 5.7 is. I’ve used other food logging apps like Noom and My Fitness Pal that have this feature. It is a game changer for the user to be very specific about food weights and measurements, and clearly can be done. Second, please work on the navigability of adding items to meals and snacks. We should be able to add multiple items to a meal or snack without being taken back to the main nutrition menu, scrolling down to that meal or snack, then going through the entire process again for each subsequent food. For a program that costs $199, the app needs to step up its game and be much more user friendly.
I love this app! It’s easy to use and I can plug in a suggested meal plan for ease, search through a wide variety of recipes, find the ingredients and directions so easily to make the meals, find my workout of the day or pick my own from the digital library, find resources to learn more about core, mindset, hormones, etc. I can track my macros (whether I use the FW meal plans and recipes or my own), water intake, workouts, fasting to balance out my day for better health, my measurements and progress, as well as get support. And the incentives of stars and badges as I track is a fun addition. One suggestion is to make it possible to enter multiple foods for a meal rather than going back and forth. It is not difficult to enter foods by any stretch of the imagination but it could be simpler.
I like the one stop shop of being able to track lots of things in one place. I think the biggest upgrade would be in the food tracking. It would be nice to have the option to remove a meal vs removing the full days food. On the other hand, it would be nice to have the option to copy an entire days worth of food vs meal or item by item. I like the food plan ideas, but it would be nice to make the recipes editable in case you want to change ingredients / amounts to fit your macros better. Also, it would be nice to be able to do more with recipes you’ve already entered and be able to change serving sizes. In the recipe library, it would be helpful to have a search option vs having to scroll through everything. There are a lot of options with tracking chicken, but it would be nice to have more COOKED versions of common proteins like ground beef or turkey by the oz or gram.
The first workout I did was a HIIT workout and I barely broke a sweat. I thought it was weird that one of the instructors went off on a tangent about David and Goliath between sets but as I got deeper into the app, I realized the entire program is a proselytizing, Bible thumping program. They allow you to select Vegan options in the meal plan but there is no secular option for the program. Had I known that I was inviting in the “annoying knock on your door to preach at you people” into my life, I never would have joined. My relationship with God is just that, my relationship. I do not inflict my beliefs on anyone nor do I want anyone’s beliefs inflicted on me. The coach I have is ridiculous. When I told her the workout was insufficient, she told me to do my own workout. A couple hours later she said to do the program workout. Make up your mind! I’m out! When I feel like getting preached at I’ll go to church. And when I want a real workout class I’ll go to BeachBody or BODI as they are now called.
The Faster Way, and it’s APP have helped me when nothing else has. The workouts are phenomenal - you do them on your time and they offer modifications for women like me — I’m 60 and needed time to build strength without injuries. Members have access to all kinds or workouts that are travel friendly, offer variety of activities and body parts you want to work. The tracking feature for food is outstanding. Recipes from their library, resources to show you what to eat when you need to add to a macro category. I could go on and on. Since I started using the app in late February, I’m down 18 pounds and my rheumatologist has let me decrease the frequency of my shots or psoriatic arthritis. I feel so much better and have lots of support.
I signed up and app works fine - I just didn’t find that much value in the meals since they recommend white rice and things I normally wouldn’t eat - that part feels a bit dated. Regardless the BIG issue for me is they don’t allow you to access your account information on the app. You need to send them an email and they will send you a ‘magic link” that last 24 hours if you want to change or cancel account. When I immediately rolled into the VIP payments I was confused and there’s very little available to help guide you out of that reoccurring fee. I finally reached someone over email but they said “oops - too late this month, you’ll be charged for one more month” and then I had to figure out magically how to ensure I wasn’t charged again. Why make it so difficult to manage your account in app? I’ve never seen anything like this before and it just doesn’t sit right with me.
The app is good in that it has everything all in one place - workouts, meal guides, water and macro trackers. It has recipes for days and tons of extra workouts. The down side of the app is that the macro data base is still not complete. There are items that I scan in and they still aren’t recognized. Also, when I track my common foods I have to type the whole name or scroll through my whole favorites list instead of it prepopulating when I start to type the name. It’s not the end of the world, but it’s just not super convenient. And finally, when adding a FW recipe, there’s no way to edit the recipe other than the serving size. It’s overall good app, but it still needs some tweaking.
This app is actually pretty great. The problem is that they make it impossible to cancel. You can’t cancel from the app. You can’t cancel from your apple subscriptions. I emailed faster way explicitly requesting cancellation and was told someone would be in touch. We never connected, life is busy, and next thing I know I’m getting a bill for another $79. I contacted faster way and explained my situation with email receipt from August 10th attached. They won’t budge, so I will pay for all of September despite my request to cancel on August 10th. You must log in to the full website and wander around for a good few minutes before you finally see at the very bottom of the page the button for account management. Then, you fill out a form to cancel. They purposefully make it difficult for this exact reason. I will never use them again bc these types of subscriptions prey on people that have executive function struggles.
I truly appreciate most everything about this app. However the major struggle is with logging food. The system doesn’t seem to hold my favorites although they do appear in my food log. It’s tedious to have to scroll through the food log to find something I eat daily (like protein powder or chicken). I try to copy meals which helps but if I haven’t eaten that 1 item in awhile, I’d have to remember which day I likely had it in order to copy it. Also, they way food items are listed isn’t the most intuitive. Like organic will be the first letter it’s filed under whereas I might think to look under strawberries first. Overall I’m enjoying it but do get frustrated with some hassles that could be avoided.
AMAZING PROGRAM and so much more than just an app!
I can’t say enough about the Faster Way program and app. Love the new update too! First of all, it’s SO much more than just an app for you to track your food. The workouts are incredible, quick and extremely effective. There are trainings, meal ideas, timers, resources and so much more IF people utilize them! Love the new update to the app (easier food tracking, etc and I am so excited for it to keep getting better. I have been doing this program for over four years and way before an app was even a thought and I can’t say enough about it. Best thing I’ve ever done for myself and completely life-changing.
I do absolutely love this app and I love this program, but there’s one thing on the app as far as I’m concerned that could improve. I would like a better way of inserting recipes and then allowing the app to break it down into servings like I have a family recipe for lasagna that I am making, and I’d like to be able to put it into the FASTer Way app and for it to break it down and tell me how much per serving is all the nutrients so, that being said, I’ve had to put my recipes in another app and then use the information it gives me and put it into the FASTer Way app and I do not like doing that.
If you are considering investing in the faster way to fat loss please BEWARE of their hidden fees. Upon registering for the 6 week program you are also agreeing to their VIP Membership for $79. I just completed the 6 week program and was dissatisfied. I not only contacted my coach as well as their faster way success team and I was denied a refund. I will not be participating in their VIP group and they are keeping my money anyway (because upon registering I missed their fine print.) I am writing this message to forewarn any woman considering this program. I believe the company and it’s affiliates lack integrity. If they have to force you into their VIP program with a non refundable $79 fee, in what other ways are they compromising their integrity? I certainly will no longer be purchasing any more of their products and I will do my best to warn other women like myself. (A hardworking mom of 4.).
Do not use this app for meal tracking it is in beta and has not been updated in moths even though it needs significant updates. You are better off using other apps to track your meals. A commercial firm should not be releasing an app in beta and should make sure to invest in continuous improvement of their app. This is not the case here. I would have given the app a better rating if they did not push members to use their poorly functioning beta feature of their meal tracking. The workout studio and meal plans and water and fasting tracker are ok. The rest of the food info is rather lacking and very difficult to use effectively even when compared to non premium versions of other meal tracking apps. If you religious use their plan plan the integration feature is nice but forget about modifying or customizing anything.
I thought I was doing all the right things…but I was still gaining weight. This program and app has been a game changer for me. It’s allowed me to lose weight and keep it off. In my 50’s I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been. I appreciate that they are consistently making updates and improvements to the app as able to make it an even better experience. Being able to track my macros, my water, and my fasting is great. But the daily workout programs are world class. They are fast and effective and I love that I can do them from home or a gym. Looking forward to continued updates.
As a mom of five kiddos (including a set of 1 year old twins!), the intuitiveness of this app and the new incentives for daily motivation (badges, stars) makes planning my macros through the day so easy. I don’t even have to think about it and it makes tracking my hydration and fasting windows simpler as well. Also, to have my workouts in my pocket?! I can simply fill in time anywhere and always get this done - no excuses. If you’re a mom, you know the crazy daily to do lists that just run through your mind on the regular — this is a no brainer for me to be efficient and stay on track.
The FASTer Way program is a one stop shop for everything you need to progress in your health & fitness. I’ve followed this program for years and the app takes it to a whole new level! I love accessing my workouts from anywhere and the weekly meal plans are easy to follow and adjust to my custom macros (calculated in the app and customized as needed with your coach!). Features like the fasting timer and water tracker are easy to use and motivating. The newest features, stars and badges, are so motivating and help keep me accountable and consistent. I love have a visual reminder of my hard work!
I love the FasterWay and the app is seriously the best. Having everything all on one place with easy access wherever you are. I love it. I think the recipes are my favorite part though, so many options, so many ideas and I use them for my whole family, who love them (husband and 5 kids.) Great app, easy to use, lots of options for each section, connection to the website when you want to purchase more supplements, section to track your progress makes it great to see where you’ve started and where you’re at. 10/10 recommend
I started using the App almost two years ago and it has changed my life. I had been an endurance athlete for years, but going through menopause destroyed my energy, body confidence and motivation. I admit I had to make adjustments that I thought would never work, but to my surprise it did work and continues to work. The app makes the nutrition, fitness and healthy habits so easy to implement and that is why it is sustainable. I decided to become a coach to spread the word to help others achieve better physical and mental health through the aging process.
Does anyone at the company use the app? If so then I would think they would demand changes. For $199 I expect more. 1. Cannot edit serving size, can only change the number of servings 2. Cannot copy recipes into another app 3. When logging food for a different day, app returns to today after saving one item . Then you have to choose the day again. 4. Recipes cannot be scaled to multiple servings. This makes them useless for cooking for the family. 5. Cannot change schedule of workouts and low carb days. Monday/Tuesday may not fit with my schedule. 6. When moving or copying a meal to a different day, the meal is entered into the same meal. I cannot copy one day’s lunch into another day’s dinner 7. Cannot move food from one meal to another. If I make a mistake and enter a food in the wrong meal I have to delete and start over 8. Barcode scanner is missing items that I would think would be fairly common for a whole foods diet. Yes I have asked that items are added 9. Like other apps it’s difficult to add restaurant meals unless you eat at a chain. However other apps don’t cost $199!
I’ve been a client for years and it’s been wonderful to watch the growth of this program and the platforms they provide their clients with to help reach their health and wellness goals. I know they continue to take our feedback and make it better with each update and I’ve only been happy with each update that has been made so far. Tracking is easy, water tracking, intermittent fasting tracking and meal planning is easy. I love being able to schedule my workouts and receive reminders for added accountability.
I love the FWTFL program and the ease and access with the app. I enjoy the workouts, education and challenges the program offers. The meal plan is a bonus. However the one part of the app I don’t use is the tracker. Having used MFP since starting it’s so nice to be able to have the option to select the measurement size, value and portion. The FWTFL App has preset all of that and it’s difficult to get an accurate macro check. I’ll continue my love of the program, just won’t be able to change up logging my foods. Too frustrating and time consuming.
I’ve been using it about a month, and I’ve encountered no issues or glitches. The food tracking is similar to others I’ve used; the ability to delete ingredients from recipes would be nice, but otherwise I really like it. I love the dashboard - it helps me focus, and I can get quickly to all my daily goals and progress. Maybe one day they’ll include more of the group aspect in the app (another plan that starts with N and rhymes with zoom does this), as it would be great to have all messaging in the app. Overall I love it!
I’m three weeks into Faster Way. I’ve lost 7 pounds and feel so good. The app is easy to use. I like that it has no ads like other trackers. The app has a few glitches that I wish would get worked out. Instead of only being able to customize our personal recipes, we should also have a way to input our own food items into a collection. That way we can go back and easily log those items for the day rather than having to do it manually each time or scanning the barcode.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The FASTer Way to Fat Loss app is a game-changer! The interface is user-friendly, making it easy to track meals, workouts, and progress. The personalized meal plans and workouts are effective and motivating. I love the community support and coaching available through the accompanying program; it feels like having a personal trainer and nutritionist in my pocket. Since using this app, I've seen incredible results in both weight loss and overall health. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to transform their lifestyle!
I really enjoy this app and rely on it daily to help keep me accountable. The major flaw I see is in the food log, especially not being able to add multiple items all at once to a meal. It’s annoying to have to keep going back to the main screen to add each item. I’d also like to see a “save meal” type feature that can be used again, similar to MFP. It would just make things a bit easier and less time-consuming.
*this review is based on the app, NOT the program* This is the most frustrating app I interact with. I’ve been using it for several years and totally agree with another reviewer, no improvements have ever been made…making me think no one in the leadership team uses it. Just this morning I was trying to edit my fasting period from yesterday and the fasting end time kept reverting to the current time. Additionally I like a customized fasting period of 15hrs and the app reverts EVERY DAY to 14hrs so it’s really throwing me off. Additionally, the meal tracking is INFURIATING. Another reviewer captured the issues very well. I wish it was like MyFitnessPal where you could save favorites and then select multiple food items and save it to your meal. But no. Things I like: water tracking is easy and editable. Easy to find meal plans and workouts. You can save favorite recipes and workouts, which I like. Great variety. I love the FWTFL program but the app need a MAJOR overhaul. Please, programmers. Do something!!!!
This app makes my life so much easier. I’m able to get my workouts and meal plans right at my finger tips. When excuses are taken away such as I need time to research my meals and figure out which workout to do, I am able to stay motivated and stick with the program. My only piece of critical feedback is to please make the app for the Apple Smart Watch. Then I will have a backup if my phone ever goes dead while at the gym!
I have been a FASTer Way client for over 1 1/2 years and have loved this program from the beginning. Their app has evolved and continues to meet the needs of the clients. It is very user friendly and has everything that I need for my fitness goals inside!! I love the 30 minute daily workouts, which are never the same!!! I also love the water and macro trackers!! Thank you for continuing to make this app work for us!!
Hands down the best experience you could buy at your fingertips. As a personal trainer myself I couldn’t possibly give to people this type of knowledge all on my own. The science behind all the moves and the food combine! It’s genius and the team is doing a fantastic job! I’m always speechless when someone ask me what I do for my workouts now, because I can’t explain all this is truly all in one and a one of a kind.
I’ve never used a fitness app prior to the FW. It works for me and I’ve appreciated the upgrades over the past few years. Some areas that could improve- The fasting timer- I’d like to go back further than 24 hours or so to record my fasting on those weeks when I’ve neglected to use the timer for a few days in a row. It happens! Food Log- I’d love to be able to copy more than one item at a time. I’m enjoying the addition of Stars and now Badges!
Imagine having your wellness community with you 24/7, just in time when you need them. Our FW community does that and this app makes it all possible. It becomes almost impossible not to meet your goals. Add to that the fun of challenge- I love tracking all of my important daily goals AND EARN STARS and then work toward certain badges. Seriously, one of the best designed wellness apps out there! -Janice Case
The faster way is a good and easy way to track water intake, food eaten, fasting hours, and exercising. The stars really do add an extra element in keeping me accountable. I wish the food log let you look up their recipes by name, i.e. I ate something that had hamburger, rice, beans in it. Let me enter those keywords and have that bring up recipes containing those items and I can select from those vs scrolling through all of the recipes in the beef category.
Opening the FW app and having workouts, menus, macro tracking, water tracking, and stars to reward compliance to the program all in one place is huge. The app makes following the Faster Way to Fat Loss program. The new star program surprised me. I didn’t think it would change my behavior, but it totally has kept me engaged in recording my activity throughout the day.
I have been VIP member since 2020 and seeing the progress of this program has been amazing. With the introduction of the app it has made tracking macros and following the program so much more convenient. I have one suggestion to tweak being able to copy multiple meals at once. At this time if I want to copy items from a different day it only allows me to select from one “meal” option at a time.
I enjoy using this app so much, it has almost everything I need to lead my healthy lifestyle. I love the studio feature with a great variety of workouts. The macro tracker is great, I would love to be able to track multiple foods at one time in a meal/snack and to be able to copy previous meals/snacks into different days. Aside from that, it’s the most comprehensive fitness app I’ve used and I enjoy it!
For the most part, this app is great and provides everything I need for the program. However, it is missing a key feature which is history of the food you log. I often eat the same thing and it would be nice to just log food from my history. Instead, I’m having to scan the same barcodes every day… having this feature would be a HUGE timesaver. This feature was one of my favorite things about my fitness pal.
Hello FWTFL Team, I love the App and have now abandoned the old tracking app I used to use. I agree with another person about tracking b your food. You should not have to add everything to a meal separately. Lastly there is no place to put separate workouts, like walking, hiking, pickleball etc.. to track your movement and exercise. I’m in Italy for three weeks and I’m walking and hiking like crazy, but there is no place to add those types of workouts.
I've been using the FASTer Way app for a few months now, and it's truly been life-changing. The app has helped me change my habits and achieve my weight loss goals in a way that feels sustainable and rewarding. It's incredibly simple to use, with a user-friendly interface and excellent support from real-world coaches. The virtual badges and real prizes add an extra layer of fun.
I am absolutely blown away by the Faster Way to Fat Loss app! The app is incredibly user-friendly and intuitive, making it easy to track my progress, plan my meals, and stay on top of my workouts. I can't recommend this app enough to anyone looking to make lasting changes to their health and lifestyle. Give it a try - you won't be disappointed!
The app gets better and better every time. Simplified tracking, and easy ways to stay connected. Love the in app workouts, and all the information!!! One suggestion, once recipes are added, if we could edit them, that would be great! Similar to tracked foods, if we could edit them after tracking (serving size for example) it would be easier than removing and re-adding.
When I joined FasterWay last October, I was new to macros and other key elements to this program. The app has been easy to use and combining several exercise options has made it easier to see the correlation between macro management and exercise. I lose weight slowly, but the app has motivated me to stay on track. Thank you!
This app has become an incredible resource for all in the program. The food tracker has improved significantly and everything is available at your fingertips. Can’t wait until you can communicate with your coach through the app so it truly would be one stop for every part of the program!
Love this app! It gives us all of the tools, tips and information we need to have success right at our fingertips! It is very intuitive and so beautifully done! FASTer Way truly thinks of everything to make our success inevitable! We just need to show up everyday, take it one step at a time and remember it’s about PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION! 🤩 Best and most supportive community ever! 🥰☀️💚
I’ve used many programs but this is the only one that is working for me because it’s easy to use and the data is displayed well. Love that’s it’s all on one page and I can easily navigate to the categories. I’ve never tracked water before and it’s making a big difference. Now I know exactly what foods and how many servings I need to reach my macros.
The recent update did not fix glitches in the food tracker. Favorite items marked don’t appear in list of food. Need to restart filters when you toggle between applications. Can’t set custom servings! Preset servings are not accurate for food being tracked. Want to use previous entry to log the same food on a different day. Always have to search manually or favorites (if it’s on the list) to log another item.
This app has advanced so much over the last year. You can track your workout, water intake, macros and log your fasts (with timer/reminder) all in one place! Make sure that you turn on notifications so you don’t miss a thing. There are menu guides and recipes, as well as workout searches if you need a cherry on top!
I have been a FASTer Way client for over 4.5 years and the additional support from the app is amazing! I can track my food, workouts, water intake, and fasting timer all in one place. Being able to pull up the daily workout videos on my phone and log my food on the go has been a game changer for my health and wellness journey! LOVE this program and the app!
The FASTer Way app is a game-changer for anyone looking to lose weight and get healthy! It's incredibly user-friendly and packed with colorful, fun features that make tracking progress a joy. This app offers the best weight loss tools and resources, all in one place. Highly recommend it for anyone serious about their wellness journey!
I love this program! I started it several years ago, before the app was created, but this app is a game changer! Everything I need in one place. I love that the workouts match the intended macros for the day and I don’t have to piece workouts together to meet my needs. I do think the food log needs some work, but overall I love it!
