Winner: MFP: With more options for goals, ability to put in birthdate instead of age, and easier access to edit your profile, I feel it wins this categoryįS has a white text on black background scheme, while MFP has a black text on white background theme. MFP recommended I eat 2070 calories per day, while FS recommended 2500. I set both up for a goal to lose 1 lb/week and set my activity level to Low/Light active. Again, all my profile stuff resets to metric for some reason in the FS app.įinally, I noticed one huge differences in the apps. Please note that I have not been able to find another way to get here (if there is, someone correct me), but it seems to be hidden. You have to go to your food diary, scroll to the bottom and click on the "Daily Summary" to get there.
On the other hand, it took me awhile to find it in FS. You either click the "profile" button at the top or go to Menu > More and it's easy to change. While FS allowed me to enter my info in English, when I went to edit my profile, it had reverted back to metric.Īs for editing profile information or changing your goals, it is pretty straight forward in MFP. MFP also adds on Exercise goals (workouts/week and minutes/workout), which FS is missing.įinally, MFP allows you to select units (metric or english). MFP adds two more (lose 1.5 or 2 lbs/week). Probably not a big deal as one year doesn't make a huge difference, but still a minor annoyance.įS only has 5 goals available (maintain, lose or gain 1/2 lb/week, lose or gain 1 lb/week). with FS you'd have to go in to edit your age every year. FS only allowed you to enter your age, while MFP let you enter your birthdate: essential if you use the app for more than a year, as intakes/recommendations change based on age: i.e. When you start up both apps, you are asked to create an account, enter your information (age, gender, current weight, height, activity level, and goals).
