“Not published” means we did not find a renewal price stated by the vendor on the date we checked. It is not a claim that the price changes on renewal, and it is not a claim that it doesn’t.
Cronometer Gold is $54.99 a year. There is a free plan underneath it, so the paid tier is an upgrade rather than a gate — you can use the app without paying and a lot of people do.
That puts it in the middle of this ledger: $20 a year more than PlateLens at $34.99, and $25 a year less than MyFitnessPal Premium. On a pure cost-per-year basis it is not the cheapest way to log calories and does not claim to be.
The category it genuinely owns is micronutrients — lab-grade depth on vitamins, minerals and amino acids, which is why dietitians and people managing a specific deficiency keep paying for it. That is a reason to choose it. It is not a price argument, and this desk does not pretend otherwise.
PlateLens Premium is now $34.99 a year, which moves the cheapest paid tier in the category $5 below Lose It!. Here is the whole ledger, with the monthly traps and the free-tier caps.
