FitGenie: Macro & Food Tracker

I’ve been using this app for probably 8 years, and I swear I will die if for some reason I can’t use it and have to switch to another. Other more “popular” apps are great for people who eat junk and thus want to scan labels of ultra processed foods and need detailed restaurant menu nutritional info at their fingertips. But those other apps really don’t do what I want. This app is a lot better for people who care about macros and other measurements like fiber and vitamins/minerals. It works a little better for cooking from scratch or eating whole foods and definitely is superior for tracking macro and micronutrients. And it’s streamlined-it’s not busy or obnoxious. They also have the best customer service and were very responsive the single time I have had a problem in the 8 years I’ve been using them.

I used MyFitnessPal for like 5 years religiously and I don’t really have any complaints about it. I switched to FitGenie (continuing to update both) assuming I would hate it and switch back. I stopped updating MyFitnessPal after a month of using FitGenie. It’s easy to use and my favorite feature is setting your goal and getting the weekly update with change suggestions. This is really helpful for me because I don’t have a coach or really know when to do what. So far, the weekly updates have been putting me towards my goals exactly. I also like that they get feedback and constantly make changes and add new features. I’m looking forward to more additions in the future! Thank you!

Without a doubt, FitGenie is the best health + fitness app out there! It’s free to use but they offer premium features which I highly recommend investing in. Not only is it super affordable (and worth every penny!) but the they offer so many features that you wouldn’t get from any other app. The most amazing feature about this app is that they use ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE to cater specifically to your needs. If you’re just starting out, they give you suggested macros based on the information you give them about yourself, but you can easily customize them to reach your exact goals. With the free download, you’re able to create individual meals, share meals + macros, and customize your weekly targets. By updating to premium, you can edit your food preferences, schedule meals, customize nutrient goals (yay micros lol), have a meal plan generated for you, favorite meals and recipes. You can also search recipes using hashtags and then add ingredients from the recipes to your grocery list. Once you check them off your grocery list, they’re stored in your pantry list, which they then take into consideration when generating meal ideas for the next week (how cool is that?!). If you don’t like a specific ingredient they suggest in a meal or recipe, you can easily substitute it with something else! FitGenie makes everything so simple to use, and I LOVE the customization + personalization of the app. If you’re thinking about making a lifestyle change, improve your health, or just need some accountability, you need to download this app!
