#Cronometer app free

On Cronometer, it is a dream! Heres what the site looks like as i edit a custom recipe. If youve ever used it, youll know what i mean. In MFP, either via the site or via the app, the user experience for making a new recipe was downright awful. MFP on the other hand locks this data behind a paywall. I use this data to track things like Leucine, Tryptophan and Omega 3, as well as the usual fiber and electrolytes. Its all there, listed for every food, every meal and every day.

Seeing actual caloric figures reflecting my exercise is a big bonus for me, even if those numbers may be off as exercise-related caloric calculations tend to be.Ĭronometer attempts to track every single micronutrient, from omega 3/6/9 content of your fat to the amino acid content of your protein. Ive been using the dynamic budget to track my overall energy expenditure as i increase my workout frequency. At first it seemed counter-intuitive to set a goal and then see it move around, but actually, your preset goal and the dynamic goal are both presented next to each other on both the site and the app, so you can make your own caloric judgements with all the information readily at hand. it will adjust your daily requirements relative to your exercise and even thermal effect of food. One quirk of Cronometer is that it uses a dynamic caloric budget. I get no crashes, no freezing, i can navigate without lag and i dont have to hunt through menus to get to the features i want (custom meals in MFP for example). The app itself is just as modern and well developed as the site. Note the ad space is roughly 10% vs MFP's 50%+. Compared to MFP, whose site was developed sometime before the wheel, the Cronometer site is a dream to use. Clean, informative, and has modern UI interactions (click + drag, etc).

I have been using the free version of Cronometer for about 2 months, and can recommend it whole-heartedly over MFP. Fuck MFP.Īfter hearing the news from MyFitnessPal that they will remove the barcode scanning feature from the free version of their app on October 1st, I have been looking for an alternative that will fit my needs.
