Where Hit My Macros is different
Food and workouts on one timeline
Log a meal and write your session in the same day view. You see what you ate around a 6 a.m. lift or a double day without switching apps.
Counter scan
Point the camera at the food on your counter and it matches it to foods you actually eat — barcode first, then image, then label text. One tap to log.
Macro-fit meals near you
The Local Meals map shows restaurant meals near you that fit the protein, carbs, and fat you have left for the day.
Apple Watch app
Check remaining macros and log from your wrist between sets.
Built for people who train
Targets, suggestions, and workout logging are set up for athletes running training days, rest days, and competition blocks — not just a scale number.
