Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: HealthyBox at 100% against Try Macro's 0%. HealthyBox also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported).

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Try Macro holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HealthyBox has 28 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of HealthyBox's written reviews are positive against 0% of Try Macro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
HealthyBox ships an update monthly, Try Macro every 2 months. Both last shipped on October 13, 2026.
