For the first couple of weeks, my app was not pulling information from my Fitbit, and other "glitchy" things were happening as well. However, that was resolved finally and I am settling in and enjoying the benefits of having daily "lessons," coaching help, access to like-minded group members, and other helpful aspects of the plan. Overall, I think Noom is on the right track and has the potential to be a very powerful tool for a lot of people.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
