MyFitnessPal: Calorie Counter App Reviews

Currently crashes every time I try to upload a recipe from the web.

It has helped me so much into developing healthier eating habits. Its very easy to use and to keep track of all my meals.

I especially appreciate the bar code integration. Just take a picture,adjust quantity and youve got your calories

Love that it stores my past meals and scans bar codes. Definitely has helped me lose weight and keep motivated. There are some bugs but hopefully it will all be worked out in time.

I have been trying to figure out why my iPhone 6 and now my iPhone 7 battery life has been so short for months now. Apparently this app runs in the background non-stop because in a single charge this app took 53% of my batter life and over the course of 7 days it took 49%. The next closest app took 5%. Whatever this app is doing in the background is crushing the battery life.. at least on iPhones. I love the app, but will not install again until this is fixed and thats why I am rating 1 star.

Im so much more mindful of what I eat since using this app. Its extremely helpful for losing or maintaining weight. I dont enter my exercise or use it to track my exercise just calories in!

Its clear that I manage to eat well and exercise much more frequently when using this app than when I am not using it.

There are a lot of apps proving far more for far less money. Id stay away. Currently using FatSecret and am very happy ☺️

Rates a 5 on days with no bugs. 3 because of the bugs syncing to Polar Flow. Using for 100 days straight so it must be doing something right. This and p90x3 helped me loose 21lbs over that time.

myfitnesspal is a fantastic app for people looking to eat healthier. I like to eat… a lot. myfitnesspal has been indispensable in helping me understand and manage my calorie and macro intake. Just being able to enter the foods I eat and quickly see where my daily intake is at is a huge motivator. Also, if you are using a specific diet, you can customize your macro intake goals as well (the percent of carbs, protein and fat that your diet should be made of). It also has optional connectivity to social media so you can share, and be held accountable for, your progress. It also links with Apple’s Health app so you can collect your exercises, walking, eating, and other health info all in one spot. I dont own an Apple Watch or any kind of wearable tech so I cant say how it interacts with those, but for someone just looking to eat a little better, its been great! More detailed planning and tracking is available for a price but, I’m good with the free stuff. Could not recommend it enough!

Easy to use & I love this app!

I love this app. A few years ago I used it to help me lose 25 pounds! Once I stopped using it, I lost my accountability and gained it all back. Now Im back on track and using MyFitnessPal to eat the right foods and the right portions.

This app provides so much useful data. Totally worth the premium membership!

Allows me to track my macros very easily!!! And set goals!! It tracks everything!

Works great! Keeps track of all my calories. Scanner works on almost everything.

The perfect app to gaining and maintaining good health!

Its so easy to log food. I was using another app before trying this and it was miserable for logging food. No troubles with this app at all!

My goal is six pack abs at age 47. MyFitnessPal has helped me appreciate some potholes in my diet (eg sugar content of lowfat milk, and portion size of nuts and peanut butter). Im more accountable to myself using the app. I love that so many foods, meals and restaurants are already loaded. Ive tried other methods and apps to log nutrition and they werent easy/fast enough. Ive lost 50lbs over 28 months and have the last 5-10 before I reach 10% body fat and the abs pop (for the first time in my life). This app is one of my tools. Also SNAP Kitchen. Its truly 80% diet after all.

Ive done the Weight Watchers app. Its nice, but you have to join their program in order to really use the app. MyFitnessPal not only does that, it tracks your exercise during the day (walking/running). I highly recommend that you try it!

Good app. Helped me loose lots of weight. However the calories allotted for some exercise is far too generous
