Great app but could be better

I’ve used my fitness pal on and off for the last couple of years and it’s definitely great if you’re trying to be more mindful of your caloric intake but with that being said, I know that a few years ago there was more features available that are now behind a paywall. Which I think is unfortunate. Because that’s what made the app so great. And now I have to pay extra to access features that I know were free once

Meal planning Paywall unexpected

By JLCKentucky
I was really excited about this app at first. I loved how comprehensive it was and how it tracked all of our information in one place. I spent a significant amount of time going through the meal planning setup for two people, answering all the detailed questions and entering our preferences. It felt well designed and very promising.
However, after investing all that time, I reached the end only to find out that it costs $99. That was extremely frustrating. Nowhere during the process was the full price clearly presented before I committed my time and effort.
If you’re going to charge $99, that’s fine — but please be upfront about it at the beginning. Don’t let users go through the entire setup process only to surprise them at the end with a large paywall.
Because the pricing wasn’t clearly disclosed upfront, it left such a bad impression that I decided not to purchase it at all. Transparency matters.
Love it

I have being using MyFitnessPal since 2013! It is a great tool and very complete app to lose weight if you are doing a low-calorie diet. It is pretty easy to use and if you are always broke, like me, you can use the free features. The free features are very complete but I love premium because it lets you scan barcodes, check for macros, etc. Those are really helpful when your time is limited or you are in a hurry.

I like this app but it was so much better when you could scan barcodes before needing a membership. I will not pay for a calorie counting app.

I'm SOOO tired of all these damn "log breakfast" "reflect on breakfast" Messages!!! I'm FASTING!!! I don't want to be reminded about breakfast I want to just keep distracted so that I can finish my fasting time not have you remind me of the fact that I have not eaten since last night ON PURPOSE!!!
I've done everything Grok told me to do to try to turn off the reminders, I entered into the app that I'm doing fasting... and it STILL wants to keep annoying me!!!
Recipe view needs improvement

You can only view your recipes after you select the button to edit them. Can’t view them in any other capacity which is annoying.
Great app!

Leaving MyFitnessPal after over 10 years

This app is designed for short term use only. It’s too expensive for long-term use and they start to delete your frequent foods from the database so that you have to keep looking things up new every time. I have been using this app since 2012. It used to be a great free app. The only thing that kept me from switching to another calorie counting app when we lost the free scan feature was the fact that I had so many recipes and foods already saved. My older “frequent foods” are no longer able to be logged. Since I have to find them all again anyway, I figured it was time to switch. So happy I did! If you’re looking for an app, that is much more cost effective, Lose It is excellent.
Very Useful & user friendly way to manage weight loss and eating habits.

This is such a great tool to measure your intake with ease. I am actually able to track my daily intake and stay on track. I have steadily lost weight in a slow and measurable safe pace thanks to this app.
