I Like the MyFitnessPal App better than the Weight Watchers app

So I use two apps to track calories and points.  MyFitnessPal for calories, and the Weight Watcher's app for Points.  MyFitnessPal is clearly a much better app.  Why?


1) It has a LOT more restaurants in it
2) For the restaurants it has, it has a LOT more items from their menus
3) It is a LOT faster
4) It has better search capabilities
5) It is easier to find foods you eat all the time


So, if you only want to use one, I vote for MyFitnessPal.  But if you are trying to do the WW Points, you have to use the WW one. For now, I'm using both.
