    I'm finding MyFitnesPal lacking in certain areas such as vitamin information and was wondering if anyone knew of an alternative ? I'm on ios8 & also use a fitbit1 to track exercise.

    Ideally I'd be looking for something similar in that runtastic, fitbit etc integrates & it gets a lot more detail.

    Also want it to work with apple health

    Cronometer tracks a lot oof nutrient information but I don't think there's anything that trumps MFP for the food database.

    Thanks. The app itself isn't much good, but the website is. I wonder why MyFitnessPal don't support nutrients like this one does

    MFP uses actual products and not generic values and the benefit to them would probably be low as the majority of people use it would probably be overwhelmed by too much info.

    And for the majority, I suspect, calories and macros and the handful of nutrients are enough.

    I know MFP are bringing out a subscription service, I don't know how in depth it will go into the vitamins but might be worth looking into.
