For MyFitnessPal Refugees: Switch Without Losing Your Data

You're Not Stuck. You Just Have a Lot of History.

If the new MyFitnessPal redesign was the last straw — the busier home screen, the extra taps to log a meal, the ads and Premium nudges where your food diary used to be — the only real reason you haven't left is the years of data sitting inside the app. That's the whole problem. So let's solve it first.

Bento Bunny is an AI calorie tracker for iOS built for exactly this moment. You bring your MyFitnessPal history with you in about five minutes, and from then on logging a meal is a photo instead of a database search.

Your MyFitnessPal History Comes With You

Export your data from myfitnesspal.com, drop the CSV into Bento Bunny, review the preview, and confirm. Your dates, meal types, calories, and macros — protein, carbs, fat, plus sugar, fibre, and sodium where present — are rebuilt in your new log, with duplicates skipped automatically. No starting from zero. The exact click-by-click steps live in the full switch guide.

Then Logging Gets Stupidly Fast

Instead of Add Food → search → scroll → pick → adjust portion → confirm, for every item — you point your camera at the plate and tap once. The AI identifies the food, estimates portions, and returns the full macro breakdown in seconds. It runs on-device on iOS 26 and later, so your meal photos never leave your phone. Barcode scanning, voice input, and water tracking are all included — nothing important hidden behind a paywall.

What You're Actually Trading

Being straight about it: MyFitnessPal still has the bigger food database and deeper micronutrient tracking, and if you live in barcodes it's genuinely strong. What Bento Bunny trades that depth for is speed and quiet — the fastest path from plate to logged meal, no ads in your diary, and your full history carried over so switching costs you nothing. And you can export your data back out any time, so there's no lock-in to worry about.
