Siloh vs Cronometer (2026)

We make Siloh, so weigh this accordingly. Here's where each one wins.

The short version

Cronometer is a nutrition tracker known for depth. You log food, exercise and biometrics, and it shows you calories, macros, vitamins and minerals in detail. The free Basic plan already tracks up to 84 nutrients and includes a barcode scanner. Cronometer Gold adds up to 95 nutrients, photo and voice logging, a fasting timer, a Macro Scheduler, food suggestions and Crono Coach.

Siloh is a nutrition and training app that plans your meals and your workouts as one system. With Siloh Pro, it builds your training program and the meal plan that fuels it, so training days and rest days eat differently, and it adapts the plan after a skipped session. Cronometer tells you exactly what you ate. Siloh Pro tells you what to eat next.

Where Cronometer wins

• Nutrient depth. Cronometer tracks up to 84 nutrients for free and up to 95 with Gold. If you care about micronutrients, it is the more detailed tool.
• Verified food database. Cronometer lists more than 1.1 million verified foods.
• A strong free plan. Basic includes the barcode scanner, custom foods and recipes, device sync and custom targets.
• Platforms. Cronometer is on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Android, Wear OS and the web. Siloh is iPhone only for now.
• Lower annual price. Gold is $59.99/year, under Siloh Pro's $149.99/year.
• Wider device connections. Cronometer connects with Fitbit, Garmin, Oura, WHOOP and Dexcom, among others.
• Track record. Cronometer has more than 5 million downloads on Google Play. Siloh launched on July 30, 2026, and has few reviews so far.

Where Siloh wins

• It plans the meals, not just the numbers. Siloh Pro generates a meal plan built around your training program. Cronometer tracks what you eat and you decide the meals.
• Fueling that follows your sessions. Cronometer's Macro Scheduler lets you set different macros by weekday, by hand. Siloh Pro sets your food to match the day's actual session and adjusts when you skip one.
• It builds your training too. Siloh Pro programs cover lifting, running, MMA/combat and hybrid. Cronometer logs exercise but doesn't list workout planning.
• Run tracking with GPS, free. Siloh's free app records your runs.
• Restaurant recommendations that fit your plan (Pro).
• Free extras for groups. Households share dinners scaled per person with a combined grocery list, and Clubs for run clubs and gyms are free.

Siloh's honest downsides

• iPhone only for now. Android is coming soon.
• The AI is in Pro. Meal plans, training programs, adaptation and the AI coach need Siloh Pro.
• Newer app. Launched July 30, 2026, with few reviews so far.
• Not a micronutrient tracker. If detailed vitamin and mineral data is the main thing you want, Cronometer is built for that.

Choose Cronometer if…

• You want a free plan with a barcode scanner and a verified database.
• You use Android, Wear OS or the web, or you log on a Mac or iPad.
• You're happy deciding your own meals and want a lower yearly price.

Choose Siloh if…

• You want the app to tell you what to eat, not just track what you ate.
• You want meals and training planned in one app, with food that follows your training schedule.
• You do running, combat sports or hybrid training, not only lifting.
• You're on iPhone and want a free tier you can use before deciding on Pro.
