So instead of just Beef or Chicken, you can have names like 30 Minutes or Less, Instant Pot, or Kids’ Favorites. When organizing saved recipes, users can name their own categories. And you can manually type in your own family recipes or cookbook favorites too. Thankfully, Paprika’s recipe clipper makes it easy to save recipes directly from the web. However, there’s no database of recipes or pre-set meal plans so you have to build up your own recipe collection first. If $10 a month isn't in your budget, you can likely still achieve much of the same success using free apps like MyFitnessPal, but you won't be as optimized as much compared to using this app.Paprika is our top pick because it gives you tons of flexibility and customization with the free app option. ![]() Overall first thoughts?

We love this because you can adjust your goals based on workload and training schedules.Īfter finally getting everything set up, here is what the main screen looks like: You can even do "calorie shifting" to move calories around your workouts or specific days of the week. We set up a goal to lose 5lbs using the standard/recommended weight loss rate (which is 1lbs/week).Īfter you set your goals, the app lets you set up your program type: balanced, performance, low-carb or keto dieting are all options. Then you will be asked a series of questions about your body composition and exercise habits. This is a new integration we previously haven't seen with other popular tracking apps and it makes a lot of sense with so much wearable technology. Next it asks if you'd like to connect to your Fitbit or Apple Health. For testing, we used the affiliate code JEFF for a two week free trial. These rates are right on par with the similar app Carbon by Layne Norton ( blog post here).
