There have been some changes as of 2/2023. It's more expensive now. The free version also doesn't let you scan bar codes or import food stats from the web. Those are big things.
Thankyou, I have just began tracking my food and so far I am happy with the free version but your video has some great points and maybe later down the line I will upgrade
Jesse, thank you so much ( Toda! ) for this honest review, it was extremely helpful. It helped me navigated through this new app I just downloaded and I also think that the great benefits the app offers are exceeding the minimal cost it has. Some people mention that one shouldn’t count on the calories intake that the app itself offers, I guess its up to the individual to find out his / her own calories intake depending on different factors and goals one had. Thanks again :)
Glad it was helpful man! You’re correct, I’d determine your own macros or have a coach set them. But I wouldn’t recommend listening to MFP default suggestions
Exactly the video I needed! Thanks ❤️ I've been using the app for +5 years and the Premium version for over 3 years now but for my country (USD to local coin) it's actually expensive now and I can't afford it anymore so I wanted to know first hand how many features I would be losing if I don't have the Premium version anymore. Thanks again! Hugs from Uruguay 🇺🇾
Thank you so much for this information and for being so honest! If you have any tips for how to figure out your macros, that would also be so helpful! :) We appreciate your hard work!
@@nfu1851 every calorie tracking app tracks carbs too. So just use the free version of any of the apps you prefer. Including MFP. I tracked my food in MFP using the free version for 4 years before upgrading
Thank you. The question I want answered is: Does the Premium version run on faster servers? I am frequently getting error messages reporting the servers are overloaded. Will this problem go away with the premium version?
@@christophersuttle4007 not that I know of. But there are a ton of other calorie tracking apps that are free. Might be worth checking some of them out instead
I used to use free version years ago. Now they don’t have barcode scanning in the free version which is a huge disappointment to me because now it makes the premium almost a need now. Are there any other good macro tracking platforms out there that have the barcode scanner included?
Yes man it’s sort of a disappointment that they’d make that a paid feature. I’m not sure if any others that have a barcode scanner to be honest. I know of other free ones that don’t have a barcode scanner though
yea i definitely think they raised it. but i guess if it's worth it to you or not, is based on the outcome you get from it. to some people, a gym membership is only worth $10 a month. To others, it's worth $400/mo. Im not saying it should be worth your $20/mo. especially if there's other more affordable options out there that get you the same results. It just depends...
Keeps mentioning $50/yr during video. Crazy as it went up in Jan 2019 to $60/yr and then ~Jan 2021 to $80/yr. Yet in this May 2022 video he still has 2018 and before price.
Yep it’s so crazy man. I guess they keep your price the same as when you purchase. So I wouldn’t know that. Regardless, Pay it if u want. And don’t pay it if you don’t want.
I'm surprised there are pretty much NO major RUclipsrs that have made a video on this topic. Great video, very informative. Thanks Jesse.
Thanks, glad you liked it
Jaxblade has been promoting it for years and never mentions if he had premium or free

Sounds good! I used the free version for a few years before upgrading
I just wanna say: Thank you for being so honest.
For sure man. Thanks for watching

It is now 79.99 per year 😅 i am contemplating the necessity
Great content! I was looking for a well detailed video and I found it! Good job! You earn yourself a subscriber 🙌🏻
Thanks! Glad it was helpful 👍
Good video! You made a good point, about it not making sense if you don't have a food scale.
Glad you liked it 👍
really grateful to you for all the help.
Glad it helped!
Great. Exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you very much.
Happy it helped!

Sept 2022 here in Canada it’s $114 a year!! Not $50 for sure!
Great information! Thank you so much. Premium sounds like a great value.
Thank you. Yea I think if it’s something you’ll use consistently most days, it’s definitely worth considering.
Thank you so much for this information and for being so honest! If you have any tips for how to figure out your macros, that would also be so helpful! :) We appreciate your hard work!
glad you liked it! A new video about myfitnesspal actually going up on my channel in a few min
When they got rid of barcode scanning… switched to cronometer.
Thanks so much. I'm in the trial period right now, trying to figure out how good this is. It's a whole lot cheaper than Noom.
Great, honest review. Thanks
Am I able to see all of my vitamin breakdown? On the free version I only see vitamin a and c
Thank you for your video! Super useful!!!
No problem 👍
Good to know , thanks man 👍
No problem 👍
Free version will no longer have barcode scanner October 1st
WOW for real? That’s a big change.
@@jesserosenthal yep, just got an email from them today.
@@Edzius_Exploits And they’ll probably hike the price again
Yes the free version has a bar code scanner I’m using it!!
Same bro!!!
Does ANYONE know which is the best app for carb counting? That's all I need, simple carb totals. I'm not paying 80.00 per yr for carb totals.😬
@@nfu1851 every calorie tracking app tracks carbs too. So just use the free version of any of the apps you prefer. Including MFP. I tracked my food in MFP using the free version for 4 years before upgrading
For me Net Carbs is the biggest one. I think it’s so important it should just be on the free version as well.
I personally just track carbs over net carbs. I want to know the most accurate amount of food I’m eating. But I get what you’re saying
If you don’t know your Marcos how would I set them?
Thank you. The question I want answered is: Does the Premium version run on faster servers? I am frequently getting error messages reporting the servers are overloaded. Will this problem go away with the premium version?
That’s interesting man, I’m not sure. But I’ve personally never had that issue when I used the free version or premium one.
@@jesserosenthal Thanks, I contacted Myfitnesspal support to see what they have to say as this happens several times every week for me..
Is their a family plan I don't want to spend $160 a year for me and my wife

It still does for me. I scan everything lol
I scan barcodes daily on the free version
Thanks for explaining this so clearly!
No problem!
Thanks, dude
$50 per year! I have been paying $19.99 per month! that's why I want to cancel my membership. It's a waste of money $20 per month.

Dang it’s 80$ now :( lol.
Very good video ! Like and subscribe for you buddy ! 👍🏻
Thank you man! 🙏
This all used to be free 😔
What about keto

WOW seriously? They really been bringing it up
Why are you showing your face instead of screenshots?
