If User forgot to log a snack at the time U ate it. Can User edit timestamps in app? Could you show a few lines of export? Max Membership is 10usd per 3 months or 40 usd per year just like mfp.
MyNetDiary provides very robust and comprehensive sync with Fitbit, Garmin and Withings. We are adding Misfit in the nearest future. As MyNetDiary can track food time, it can send more accurate food information to them than other diet apps. When compared to MyFitnessPal, MyNetDiary sends all foods, all nutrients (not just summaries), and also it properly timestamps them. Once you setup the link, you wonât have to do anything else, no sync buttons to push, no apps to launch, the sync will be automatic. Your MyNetDiary mobile app will be getting the information, too.
More than four meals?
MyNetDiary tracks up to four meals - breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.
If you eat more meals and would like to track them, you can do this by turning on Track Time option in MyNetDiary settings. You would be able to keep time of each food, so if you have several snacks a day, theyâll have different timestamps.
Daily reports will show snacks grouped separately based on timestamps, in-between main meals. Also, the iPhone app will show snack carbs separately grouped if you have âShow Carbsâ option on.
I use Yazio for quite some time now. I searched for a good app to start tracking and I stuck with this one because it seemed easy to use. It has all the features I need: bar code scanning, great database, meal plans and recipes. Data export is no problem. Canât do without it now
I also synced my fitbit, so all activities are logged, as well. Comparing to other apps I find Yazio also very accurate. Adding food and meals is no problem and the interface is very clear. Definitely recommended: https://www.yazio.com/en
The purported best seven but thoroughly explored. 2019
"
features were compared with the domains in an integrated behavior change theory framework: the Theoretical Domains Framework.
App features varied considerably, yet all of the apps had features consistent with Beliefs about Capabilities and thus have the potential to promote self-efficacy by helping individuals track their diet and progress toward goals. None of the apps allowed for tracking of emotional factors that may be associated with diet patterns. The presence of behavior change domain features tended to be weakly correlated with greater usability, with R2 ranging from 0 to .396. The exception to this was features related to the Reinforcement domain, which were correlated with less usability.
Comparing the apps with the USDA reference for a 3-day diet, the average differences were 1.4% for calories, 1.0% for carbohydrates, 10.4% for protein, and -6.5% for fat. "
Of the 23 popular apps included in the review 16 were free (70 %), 15 (65 %) addressed weight control, diet and PA combined; 19 (83 %) allowed behavioural tracking. On 5-point MARS scales, apps were of average quality (Md = 3.2, IQR = 1.4); âfunctionalityâ (Md = 4.0, IQR = 1.1) was the highest and âinformation qualityâ (Md = 2.0, IQR = 1.1) was the lowest domain. On average, 10 techniques were identified per app (range: 1â17) and of the 34 categories applied, goal setting and self-monitoring techniques were most frequently identified. App quality was positively correlated with number of techniques included ( rho = .58, p < .01) and number of âtechnicalâ features ( rho = .48, p < .05), which was also associated with the number of techniques included ( rho = .61, p < .01). Apps that provided tracking used significantly more techniques than those that did not. Apps with automated tracking scored significantly higher in engagement, aesthetics, and overall MARS scores. Those that used change techniques previously associated with effectiveness (i.e., goal setting, self-monitoring and feedback) also had better âinformation qualityâ.
I just realized none of these apps have a meal planning feature. The following have weak nutrition tracking and are focused on meal planning and shopping lists.
Iâve been using Levels Health here. Itâs not the most detailed food tracker but itâs been the best for building a forcing function in my life to track. I know I want to see my metabolic responses to meals and look back on the data, so I log them. Otherwise everything else feels too tedious and I donât do it. Hope this helps.
I used this app before, but I changed phones and couldnât reinstall it for some reason.
I switched to the smartplate Sergio described, and I recently discovered work time, and the combination is extremely efficient!
Iâve used Cronometer and MyFitnessPal for several months each. MFP was a few years ago, and it got on my nerves with their off-topic âcommunityâ and âblog postâ cruft, and the database quality was poorer than Cronometer. You could submit food changes, but no idea when they get approved or published. Many foods had ridiculously wrong nutritional values, even if they we marked with the âapprovedâ deal. The entire database seemed user-contributed. Maybe things have changed in the meantime, but I highly doubt it. Back in December, MFP didnât seem to be in better shape.
Iâve been using Cronometer since January. They have several official food databases including lab-analyzed data, with tens of micronutrients. The interface is focused on food tracking; no community gimmicks. It works on the web as well, which is great for my setup in the kitchen - I have a Pixelbook with a real keyboard, so searching and entering foods is much faster than from a cramped phone. Yazio doesnât seem to have an online interface.
Cronometer does scan barcodes, but doesnât work offline. Timestamps are a Pro feature. However, even the basic version allows you to track any biometric you like, so I ended up defining things like âFocusâ or âSleep onsetâ and have been centralizing my tracking in the app. It can chart and overlay the biometrics, which helps with noticing correlations.
Unfortunately, Cronometer development is extremely slow, and their priorities are rather odd. They chose to implement new splash screens or a dark mode (I guess some users want to spend several hours reading through their food journal at night?), instead of fixing some annoying bugs, or streamlining data entry. Still, the app and website are sufficiently usable and powerful that I havenât switched away yet (to what?)
Iâm a big Cronometer fan, glad that I ditched MFP despite many years of use. If you do serious tracking, the export features are great: itâs much harder to get a CSV file out of MyFitnessPal.
My favorite is the Fat Secret app, which I started using a few years ago, which keeps getting better with excellent developer support. In the rare case when the bar code doesnât match a new food or a home recipe, it is easy to add it into the database. The longer you use it, the easier it is to capture the new dayâs meals, especially for saved meals, most eaten items, and recently eaten items.
