MacroFactor
Nutrition tracker that adjusts calorie targets from weekly weight and intake data
A paid food-logging app launched in 2021. Its distinguishing feature is an algorithm that estimates energy expenditure from the weights and meals a user logs and revises calorie and macro targets at a weekly check-in, so the plan adapts as metabolism changes. A maintenance mode aims to hold weight inside a narrow band after a diet, and a separate Workouts app added program tracking. Jeff Nippard describes himself as a part owner who has been involved since development began, which is worth knowing when reading his endorsement of it.

He discloses that he owns part of the app and has been involved since day one, so his praise is not independent. He calls it the best nutrition app on the market. Two features get the credit: the weekly check-in that adjusts intake as metabolism changes, and a maintenance mode meant to hold weight within two pounds of where a diet ended.
