Top reviews

The best food tracker available but it needs some additional features and tweaking.

This app has a ton of free good features if you’re trying to track your meals and snacks to lose, maintain, or gain weight.

I love how you can scan most foods and if it doesn’t have it in the database you can scan the nutritional label to be accurate when logged for the first time.

The only thing this app is missing is an exercise and burnt caloric intake tracker. I wish it tracked BMR as well as custom exercises. If I were to go to the gym on a treadmill or elliptical. It would be cool if every time you completed a workout. That the app would ask you how many calories were burnt and how long you were on the machine every time. Other apps have poor exercise tracking and I would even consider paying for this app on a subscription basis if it had this feature.

Game Changer

I’ve been using MacrosFirst for a little over three years now… WOW. If you’re looking for an app to track your food, track your progress, or just get an idea of where your nutrition is at, this is it. Even in the beginning three years ago, I thought this app was awesome, but the updates that the developers keep pushing out just get better and better each time. The free version is awesome, but I promise you won’t regret paying the subscription! I have recommended this app to every single person who has asked me what they should use to start getting a better handle on their nutrition and fitness goals.

Love it

Love that I can track my macros easily. I especially love the scanner on the app.

Fabulous

Super easy to scan and enter foods. Love this app

GRIFTERS

BE WARNED! I Just got a $71 annual charge from this app without my consent. The app said they would notify me when my 7 day free trial was ending and they never did. They didn’t ask what subscription I wanted to sign up for- just charged me $71 without my consent. This app is a grift.

Put your costs in the app description

As of this writing, it’s $6 per month. I shouldn’t have had to download it to find that out.

Great, simple, no hassle

This app makes so easy to track your calories and nutrition goals. I have tried over 10 apps before. None has been this easy.

Just dumb updates

No one QAs anything anymore. I can no longer move foods between different meals. So dumb. Why break something that was working fine before. Ridiculous

Best macro tracking app

This is not the only macro tracking app I have used, but by far it is the best and now it is the only one I use. It makes tracking so simple. The database is huge. And it is easy to add my own recipes and meals, which I really appreciate.

A+

Very useful. Better search function, even in basic mode, than many others. The free version does everything I need.

tracker review

Great app for beginners who are learning to track Marcos.

Macronutrients with ease

Great app. Best of several I have tried through the years. I have used both the free and paid app.
Download it, you will love it and probably learn a few things.

Way too expensive

I thought I was going to like this but it was hard to work and way to expensive to just log my food

MY MF REVIEW

Best tracking app and I've used a few!

App not working

I’ve heard this app is absolutely brilliant. I downloaded it, started setting it up and then had to step away for a moment. Tried to open the app again and it won’t load. It opens to the screen with the logo and then doesn’t load at all. Will delete and try again, but pretty disappointed with my first impression.

missing some key features

while it’s a pretty app, and i like the individual meal macros, there are some key features missing like being able to choose a recipe serving size and adjust the serving to fit your macros!!

Wasted time

Couldn’t make any entries nor cancel subscription or delete account the only option recognizing was the option to select type of billing

The older version was better!

It used to be WAY better as far as searching foods go but probably 80% of the time the food I am looking for doesn’t pop up anymore. That was a big reason I liked the app in the first place! That being said, it is still miles better than any other apps

WOW

BY FAR the best macro tracking app…

The astetic of the app is like no other, and doesn’t look like it was coded by a 12 year old in his mom’s basement.

Everything is so easy and simple. Love it.

Pay to play

Can’t even try the free version of the app it forces you into a trial before you can do anything
