# MacroFactor Workouts vs MET Goals

The clearest difference is rating: MacroFactor Workouts at 4.8 against MET Goals's 4.0. MacroFactor Workouts also leads on ratings volume (4.9K vs 1) and chart position (#124 vs unranked). MET Goals's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and review sentiment (100% vs 74%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MacroFactor Workouts sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and MET Goals sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MacroFactor Workouts holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MacroFactor Workouts has 4.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of MacroFactor Workouts's written reviews are positive against 100% of MET Goals's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MacroFactor Workouts ships an update every 2 weeks, MET Goals every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 9, 2026 respectively.
