Ratings and reviews

I have been using this app on and off for a decade or so and did the sync with my fitbit scale and tracker,and the calorie counter is great. The barcode scanner was moved to the premium option only to look up foods quickly. That sucks! It used to be free. The changes made to the app are more restrictive. You had a great thing going, but it's always ruined when you want to squeeze more money out of it. Additionally, it no longer syncs with my fitbit scale.

Good enough app that I paid for premium after the trial. But it loses two stars for me. 1) For the price it should be easier to use. If what I'm tracking has a barcode then it's very easy and often matches the nutrition info on the package (but not always), but it's not as good when searching/recipe building, too many wildly different choices and it's difficult to know what's right. 2) It notifies me that I forgot to track a meal almost half the time when I have already tracked the meal.

I haven't used the app in a while. Many free features are now locked behind the paid version. This used to be quick to use and very useful. Now the free version sucks. It's cumbersome and slow. Things like the ability to scan a barcode shouldn't be locked behind a paywall. Also, the new user interface & anesthetic is awful. It looks like something that would be in a child's game. I'll be looking elsewhere to track my macros. RIP MyFitnessPal you will be missed.
