How We Rank

Pricing
We assess how much each app costs—both upfront and over time. Apps that offer free or low-cost plans without sacrificing essential features score higher. We also consider hidden fees, upsells, and whether the pricing feels fair for the value provided.
Value
We look at the full package—what you get for what you pay. An app that’s feature-rich, accurate, and supportive of long-term habits will always outrank a flashy app with shallow tools. Our goal is to spotlight options that deliver results, not just downloads.
User Interface
A clean, intuitive design can make or break your tracking experience. We prioritize apps that make food logging fast, navigation effortless, and data easy to understand. Bonus points go to apps with smart design choices that reduce friction and save time.
Customer Support
When things go wrong, good support matters. We test each app’s response time, helpfulness, and availability across channels (chat, email, help centers). Apps that consistently provide timely, helpful support rank higher in our review system.
