Not good enough
You’d get a perfect five out of five if when I add food based on a meal, the recommendations are relevant to that meal. I don’t want to add breakfast and see my dinner from last night. I know you can copy from a previous day, but we all don’t eat the same thing every day. How hard is it to add a meal to breakfast and see the last 50 things that I ate for breakfast so I can just quickly add whatever it is. This seems like a table stakes feature. I’d give it this app of five out of five if only it had this.

I do like this app
This app has been working very very well for me, sometimes it may be tough to find foods here and there but seems to carry a huge menu for what you are looking for. One thing I’d love to see is grouping your previous foods into the categories that you add them too. For instance, rather than list foods in the order that you add them, have them grouped under Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snacks. Etc. however, I would still choose this app over My fitness pal. 8 days a week.

Not free. Misleading
The app is claimed to be free to use, but it is not free. You get a seven day free trial and then you must subscribe for money. Misleading and not worth wasting your time.
Works when it wants too
Junk
Absolute blessing
Bless these devs tracking macros by scanning and able to track melas ahead to make sure I’m in line with my goals is an absolute god send no other app provided!
Bait and switch
It said there was a free version, but it only lasts for two weeks, and even try those two weeks you have to agree to purchase. No thank you.
Hate the new version
Love this app! Absolutely hate the new version of this! It feels like some game I just want a basic food tracker! So hard to read everything now.
Amazing
Started taking lifting and MACRO tracking serious about a year ago, this app has been perfect. Never found a food that the system doesn’t have, and it makes it super easy pre plan meals and track water
Needs exercise tracking
Great app but needs exercise tracking from apple watch
Great Meal Prep App
This app is great. It is very easy to use. You can schedule meals which is great if you eat a lot of the same things throughout the week.
Horrible
No help
Consistency
Macros First is my go to macro counting app as a Nutrition and Wellness Coach. It’s easy to use. It has a large food library. It makes tracking easy. I especially love the copy and paste functions and the “recents” food library.
Better than all the rest!!!
Best macro tracking app in my opinion and I’ve tried a lot of them!! Really great app!!!
Terrible update
The update is so bad. A BUNCH of the foods that I always used, eggs etc. have the nutritional facts all out of whack!!! Can I please have access to the old version?? I was just fine with the old one
Subscription is required
I was wanting to try this app but it requires a subscription
Awesome app
The app offers you impressive features for being completely free (Subscriptions are optional). I’ve been a user for about a year now and I can surely tell that this is one of the best macro apps out there, simple to use and convenient for those who are always on the rush!

Good app
Wish I Could Adjust Calories for Daily Exercise
I really enjoy this app, and switched over from a different tracking app because this one is more user friendly and looks better. However, I’m thinking about switching back because the old app had a feature where you could adjust daily calorie goal based on calories burned for exercise- for example, in the old app I would enter in that I burned 200 calories by running 2 miles, and then I would eat an extra 200 calories to stay healthy. Now with this app I still eat the extra food, but now when I look back on my month I can’t tell how well I have been hitting my calorie deficit goal. Please add a feature like this MacrosFirst!

Please send us a message from your app at More > Contact Us so I can send you the details on joining the beta program. Best, -JB
Downgrade
I’ve been a long time user of MacrosFirst. And the recent updates to the app are actually a downgrade in my mind. Specifically, the way that you enter in and create meals via the daily mails section. It seems like the app can do a lot to become more intuitive and user-friendly.
MACRO TRACKER
At first, the app was a little confusing, but once I got the hang of it, I really started to love it! I love that you can add your own food or drinks if they’re not already in the app. The precision and level of detail it provides is also really awesome and makes tracking everything so much easier. Overall, it’s been a great app for keeping up with my nutrition and macros!
