CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

This fitness assistance program tracks your food intake and workout routines, but it isn't user-friendly and lacks some features we'd like to see. Healthtracker's busy interface has a lot of options, but it doesn't provide some necessary help for getting started.

Users begin by filling out target weight, goal date, and current weight. Record-keeping is pretty simple; you can record what you've eaten and exercises you've performed, and it shows the calories you gained and burned. The program's databases are preloaded with foods and activities, but you can add your own. The numerous charts and reports it generates are impressive, covering nearly every aspect of the data you're tracking.

On the downside, Healthtracker doesn't develop a calorie budget based on your information and you're on your own in determining daily target amount of nutrients, including carbohydrates and fats, something other programs offer. You'll need Microsoft Access to use this program, which is another hurdle in using this app. Overall, this app has some nice options, but the learning curve and the inability to plan your diet are oversights that will send most users to a friendlier and more comprehensive fitness app.

Publisher's description

From Health Tracker :

Health Tracker is a calorie counter, exercise log, weight log, and goal setting software. By tracking your food and exercise, HealthTracker shows if you are meeting your goals, where the calories are coming from (carbs, protein, and sugar), and combines that with your aerobic and anaerobic exercising log to help guide your life in a healthy direction. We keep things with an intuitive interface and reports that make sense. It makes tracking your eating habits fun and encourages you to live a healthier life.

Version 2.1 include open database that can be customized and modified.

What's new in this version:

Version 2.1 includes several changes such as an open/unlocked access application, which customers can customize and/or modify forms, reports, and other improvements.
