Calorie Counter by Cronometer

Guys i freaking love this app, I track my macros / micros everyday, and I love how easy it is to just look at the types of foods yo are eating, and what type of macros / micros you are underdosing. Also an amazing app for us people on ketogenic diets, the net carbs tracking is awesome. But, I have a big suggestion, you guys should implement It, and why I didn’t give the app 5 stars. When you track something like omega 3’s, or iron, sometimes you may get like 70-80% of that iron, OR omega 3 from sources that are poorly converted into actual material. for example, the ALA in omega 3’s has a poor conversion rate of about 1% to EPA and 5-10% to DHA, OR non heme iron, which gets used only about 20-30%, and when the user sees that he got, lets say 12grams of non heme iron, he things his intake is sufficient, or 10 grams of omega 3 from flax seeds, when in fact it is not, because it is poorly converted, and it tricks user into underdosing the amounts and thinking that they are sufficient. So my suggestion is, you either dissect these minerals, vitamins into their parts, like non heme, or heme iron, or omega 3 that is ALA, EPA , DHA, or you just convert them seperately, into that, and show the actual amount you got that was absorbed and used.

Quite good for counting calories, protein, carbs, fats for free, cool free chart of macros. Easy to use. Does the job. Recommend

Love this app, it gives all information i need

I’ve tried several nutritional trackers out there, and almost instantly returned to Cronometer! Loving it for years! ❤️ It’s simply The Best! 👍🏻

This app is super helpful!!

This app used to be amazing and was a great way to track macros. Loved the features to copy and paste and create custom recipes. Now the pop up ads make the app almost impossible to use — I understand an advertisement every now and then, but there is an ad after any logged food item. I had to watch 5 different ads just to log my lunch.

With the free version, there’s not much else you’d really need. Works pretty flawlessly so fat, no bugs i’ve found yet.

This is my biggest gripe - I try to add (3) 12 oz servings of water at a time and the app puts it in as 305 g instead of 1016 g so there’s no proper way to track water. It would be so much more efficient to have a counter (tally) for the number of 8 or 12 oz glasses of water consumed. Accountability is a huge part of why I need an app to track my intake so this is a huge miss for me.

Nothing even remotely close to actually tracking accurately

This app is awesome! Efficient, convenient, and easy to use. The free version includes the barcode scanner, and the daily macro breakdown. Most food-log apps have put those 2 things behind a paywall, so I tell everyone about this app. Cronometer also doesn’t make you answer dozens of questions about yourself or require tons of personal info, and it doesn’t advertise or promote fad-diets like other food log apps. It does exactly what it is designed to do - gives the user the ability to log and track food/nutrients and see macro breakdown of each food item/for the day. I haven’t found a food yet that isn’t already in their food “library” with nutritional info already entered for you, even restaurants I wouldn’t think would be on a worldwide app- are on this one! I am preparing to get serious about my macros again and meal prep, so I may try out the paid version and will update this review to include info on the paid version if so! This is the app for you! If you’re looking to lose weight, monitor calories, monitor macros, or even just trying to get in the habit of logging your food (that was my first step to getting healthier, I made food-logging a daily habit without changing anything else. Once it was a habit, I added another small change until it became a habit. So on and so forth.) this app will be such a good tool to help you!
