MyFitnessPal vs revns: calorie counting or a whole-day score
MyFitnessPal is built around food: a large database, calorie and macro goals, and in Premium a barcode scanner, meal scan, voice logging and an AI coach. Premium is $79.99 a year or $19.99 a month in the US, and Premium+ adds a meal planner. revns is built around the whole day: training sessions, sleep, steps, meals and mood in one score, a week plan from your own data, and an assistant you already use (Claude or ChatGPT) that can log for you. Meals can be logged in a few words without counting, and calories and macros are there if you want them. If precise calorie counting is the goal, MyFitnessPal does it in more depth. If you want to know whether the whole routine is working, revns is closer.
