MyFitnessPal and similar apps are also valuable because they have a huge database of foods with nutritional information that users submit. MyFitnessPal was a key tool for me when using the Apple Watch to become healthier. The overall experience is pretty good. Include your current weight and describe your activity levels, then MyFitnessPal gives you a daily calorie goal and automatically subtracts calories burned that Apple Watch captures.
I do open MyFitnessPal every day to log my meals and capture data for the Nutrition category in Apple’s Health app.
I personally use the Health app regularly to monitor trends over time like Activity which the Apple Watch captures and Weight which my smart scale adds, but I don’t open the Health app daily. Apple recommends a variety of solutions that work well including Lifesum and MyFitnessPal, but ultimately a native meal logging feature and first party food database would make the Health app much more useful.
Apple’s Health app in iOS 10 prominently displays Nutrition as one of the four main categories on the Health Data dashboard, but adding detailed information currently requires a third-party meal logging app with HealthKit support.
