Swoodie vs Fitia
Both use AI. Swoodie adds the cooking and couples layer Fitia skips.
Fitia is a well-built AI nutrition app — it covers calorie tracking, personalized meal plans, AI coaching, and a food database with strong Latin American coverage. With 10M+ users and a 4.9 App Store rating, it’s one of the few apps that genuinely competes with Swoodie on the AI-first calorie tracking side.
The gaps appear in cooking and social features. Fitia doesn’t have a dedicated recipe creation and discovery experience, and it has no couples mode. If you track solo and focus on macros, the two apps are close. If you cook regularly or eat with a partner, Swoodie’s broader feature set changes the calculation.
Why people choose Fitia
- LATAM food database: Fitia is the strongest tracker for Latin American and Spanish-language food items — entries verified by nutritionists, not just crowdsourced.
- AI coach (Fitia Coach): Conversational assistant for logging, recipe ideas, and plan adjustments. More interactive than most calorie apps.
- Multiple logging modes: Photo, voice, and text — not just barcode and manual search.
- Family plan: $89.99/year for up to 6 members.
- Intermittent fasting tracker and body measurement logging built in.
Where Swoodie pulls ahead
Cooking-first experience
Swoodie's recipe library, Chef AI recipe generation, and cook-mode experience are built as first-class features. Fitia's recipe content is secondary to its tracking and coaching focus.
Couples mode — unique to Swoodie
Swipe Together lets two people swipe on meal options independently and surfaces matches. No equivalent exists in Fitia — it has no shared or couples decision feature.
Free tier AI photo scanning
Swoodie includes 5 daily AI photo scans on the free tier with no account required. Fitia's AI features are largely paywalled.
Lower annual price
Swoodie Premium is $49.99/year. Fitia Premium is $59.99/year — $10 more for an app with fewer cooking and couples features.
