At the same time, the monthly spending on wellness apps shot above $100 million per month in March 2020. As a result, worldwide installs of top 100 wellness apps that include home fitness, spiritual well-being, and diet & nutrition exceeded 200 million for the first time in April 2020, exceeding 1.2 billion for the year. The global fitness apps saw a surge of first-time installs early during the COVID-19 pandemic and have continued to witness elevated consumer demand. Global Health and Fitness App Market Overview As a result, consumers are increasingly taking their health into their own hands and started using fitness apps to track their physical condition to help them change their daily activities and diet plans. (Lose It did have California Pizza Kitchen, by the way.)īut either way, if you start typing in what you eat, you could end up carrying around less weight in 2014.While the concept of wellness has been around for a long time, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic forced many consumers to transform themselves to adopt a healthy lifestyle. I couldn't even get info on items from the huge Subway chain. When I wanted to add "Burrito Bowl" from Chipotle into MyFitnessPal it was in the database - but nowhere to be found on Lose It. For instance, Talking Tech fans know my favorite restaurant is Chipotle. MyFitnessPal did a better job picking up food I liked at restaurants. Of the two apps, I have to give the nod to MyFitnessPal, and the reason is the restaurant database. The apps have formulas that estimate the calories burned for specific exercises - for instance you can get 829 knocked off for rollerblading on Lose It. But if I go on an hour walk, I get a bonus 300 calories - enough for a few more apples. When you're done adding the food you eat, you type in calories burned from exercise to get additional calories to work with.įor instance, if my day starts with 2,000 calories, the number starts to go down, as I eat. In the kitchen, I easily picked up bar code scans for everything from rye bread (not on the diet, I know) and rice cakes to cereal, liquid eggs and even succotash.
This makes it much easier to monitor what you're eating. Best of all, both apps have cool bar code scanners.
