MyFitnessPal in short
The calorie counter most people already know, with exercise logging on the free tier. The downside: barcode scanning, custom macro goals, ad-free use and CSV export are Premium only.
Yazio in short
2,900+ recipes with meal planning and a grocery list. The downside: cSV export is Pro only, and there is no monthly plan.
Free tier and price

If a game is what you are missing
Neither app has a game layer. We make GYM RPG, which logs the same sets, reps and weight and adds XP, a skill tree and a party boss. It is not a drop-in for either app, because we have no import tool and you would start fresh.
