Yazio vs Lifesum: price and which to choose
Quick verdict
Both are nutrition apps with AI logging and a paid tier. Yazio Pro is the fasting specialist — every fasting plan, AI photo tracking, 3,000+ recipes, grocery lists and activity sync — paid up front for the whole period. Lifesum Premium is the guided-eating app — custom goals, Net Carbs in the US, meal plans, diets and Life Score — with a 14-day refund window.
