Since I created computer-based training programs for the military before I retired, I'm probably harder to please than the average Noom client. I may be a bit picky, but I experienced some minor frustrations with the app. When I try to do something and the app doesn't respond as expected, TWICE, I give up and move on to the next task. There were a couple of times that I thought the daily reading stuff was asking me to share something with my group, but when I hit the next button (whatever it happened to be labeled that day), it would take me on to the next numbered task. Ah well, this isn't life-or-death stuff (like military training), so I just moved on. Sorry, I never made a note of exactly where I was experiencing these problems - but I didn't know I'd be reviewing the app.
So there you have it. I'm very happy with the actual content of the program and Noom's whole philosophy towards weight management. I do like having the one-on-one coach (I think you call it a goal specialist), and the idea of a group chat is excellent, although I find your group chat environment is limiting - don't seem to be able to have private chats with anyone in the group; it doesn't even appear that the group leader has that ability.
Something I do love about the app is logging food and having a list of common foods other people have already logged available to choose from. But I'm left wondering what happens when I add something that's not already on the list? I get a message saying "thanks for improving Noom," or some such thing, and I'm left with the impression that I'll be notified when my food has been reviewed and added to the list - I've logged several items and never been notified about anything?
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
