My PT Hub
My PT Hub fits a trainer who wants client records, programming, nutrition, scheduling and payments under one login. The free entry point allows a small test, while the 30-day trial gives time to assess the workflow. Watch owners should view it as a coaching platform that imports selected Apple Watch and Fitbit data, not as a standalone watch training app. The main buying decision is which client and automation limits match the coaching business, since several functions begin at Premium or higher.
- Free plan and 30-day trial are available.
- Works across web, iOS and Android.
- Apple Watch and Fitbit data can feed coaching records.
MyFitnessPal
MyFitnessPal suits someone who wants one place for food, exercise and nutrition records across phone, web and several connected health services. The free tier covers basic diary work, while the paid tiers concentrate on faster logging, detailed targets and meal planning. Check the platform requirements, regional Meal Planner limits and subscription cost before choosing it. People concerned about data handling should read the app’s stated practices and breach disclosure, and those seeking a watch-first experience should note that the available facts describe connections rather than a standalone watch app.
- 22 million-item public food database
- Free plan includes core food and exercise logging
- Syncs an account across supported platforms

MyFitnessPal takes this round
Free plan
Both services provide a free plan, but the facts describe different uses. My PT Hub’s free offering sits within trainer software, while its Starter plan lists limits of three clients, 50 workouts and 50 nutrition plans. MyFitnessPal’s free plan includes food and exercise logging, recipes, measurements and progress, macronutrients, partner-app links, diary sharing and printable reports. The available facts do not give a matching feature list for My PT Hub’s Free plan, so they cannot establish which free tier offers more. This round is a tie because the products serve different audiences and the free-plan details are not directly comparable.
Coaching and tracking
My PT Hub provides more than 15 personal-training features for coaches, including workout building, nutrition coaching, check-ins, bookings, compliance, communities, messaging, forms, progress metrics and payments. Its library has more than 8,000 exercise videos, and its nutrition database has more than 650,000 food items with barcode scanning. MyFitnessPal focuses on food, calorie, macro, exercise, weight and habit tracking. Premium adds barcode, Meal Scan, voice and multi-day logging, while Premium+ adds meal plans and grocery tools. My PT Hub wins for a trainer running client programs and business operations; MyFitnessPal is centered on individual nutrition logging.

Integrations and automation
My PT Hub directly integrates with Apple Health, Apple Watch, Google Fit, MyFitnessPal and Fitbit. It also supports external calendars and offers a Zapier add-on connecting with more than 8,000 third-party apps, with inbound and outbound automations. MyFitnessPal can exchange food, exercise, weight and sleep data with Apple Health when permissions are enabled. Its listed connections include Google Health, Apple Watch, Health Connect, Garmin Connect and Samsung Health. Its developer portal describes REST interfaces but is not accepting API-access requests. My PT Hub wins for the broader stated automation and trainer-platform connections.

Device and platform reach
My PT Hub runs on Android, iOS and the web. MyFitnessPal runs on Android, iOS and the web, and also lists an API platform. MyFitnessPal accounts sync automatically across supported platforms when the same login and an internet connection are used. Its iOS app requires iOS 18 or later, iPadOS 18 or later on iPad, and watchOS 10 or later on Apple Watch. The available facts do not state equivalent cross-platform syncing or system requirements for My PT Hub. MyFitnessPal wins because it lists the additional API platform and explicit account synchronization.

Support channels
My PT Hub offers a Zendesk help center, quick-start guide, live chat, email support and bookable support calls. Its Ultimate plan includes concierge support, while Premium includes priority support.

Privacy and data controls
My PT Hub says Fitii Ltd complies with UK and European Economic Area data-protection laws, including GDPR, and maintains internal GDPR policies.

MyFitnessPal describes technical, organizational and administrative safeguards, while noting that no security measure guarantees protection. It also discloses a 2018 breach involving email addresses, usernames and hashed passwords, plus app data practices that may track identifiers and usage across other companies’ apps. My PT Hub wins on the stated compliance and access controls.
