## Description

## Review summary

Brighter Bite is praised for being a compassionate, easy-to-use ED-recovery tool with flexible logging and useful data exports. However, reliability issues (crashes, disappearing progress, data loss when editing) and limited customization (editable behaviors and times) hinder usability. Users also want smoother UI and enhanced exports (photos, per-day sheets). If stability and some customization are improved, it could remain a strong, supportive journaling app for recovery and clinician collaboration.

### Pros

- Easy-to-use logging of thoughts, feelings, and meals without calorie counting, with the ability to log throughout the day.
- Recovery-focused features like mood diary, triggers tracking, and calming, supportive notes.
- Data review and export options (readable data sheets, timeline view) that help review progress and share with providers.
- Many features are free and the app offers therapist-friendly sharing/export options.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes, especially when accessing the diary tab, affecting reliability.
- Inconsistent progress tracking with reports that progress isn’t shown for periods of time.
- Data loss or corruption when editing entries (diary or chats), and no ability to edit entry times.
- Performance issues like choppy navigation/animations impacting the user experience.
- Limited customization (negative-behavior list not editable, no easy way to edit times) and export limitations (desire to include photos in exports, per-day sheets).
