ORO vs MyFitnessPal

MyFitnessPal alternative: meet ORO.

MyFitnessPal is where a lot of people first learned to track their food. ORO keeps basic logging free forever, gives every free account AI label scans each month, and adds training, body composition and your coach in one app. Check MyFitnessPal's site for its current features and plans.

Why people switch

What ORO does differently.

🆓

The basics stay free, forever

Logging your food, workouts and body is free and always will be, and every free account gets a monthly allowance of AI extras like label scans. We paywall unlimited intelligence, never the basic loop that makes tracking a habit.

🔁

Food talks to training

A logged workout credits estimated burn back to your "calories left" in real time, then nudges you toward the protein you still have to hit. A calorie-only app can't close that loop, because it can't see your training.

📸

See your body change

AI body-fat estimate from a photo, measurements, and trends overlaid with your training and nutrition.

🥇

Know what you're eating

Scan any label for a 1–10 ORO Score with a plain-English "Good" and "Watch" list, a food-quality read, not just a calorie count. See how it works →

🤝

A real human in the loop

Join a coach's private world by invite for a plan, community, and challenges, or use ORO solo. Either way, it's more than a spreadsheet with a logo.
