Mobile phones have become an important aspect of our life regardless of the place we are heading towards. Doesn't matter, we are going for a morning walk or to our office, having a lunch or going to a gym, our mobile phone is always with us. This has become like a life organ to us where we can’t imagine our life in its absence. Hats off to the makers of the fitness apps who have just hit the jack pot at the right place and have come out with something which is surely going to keep an eye over our fitness. 
Here are some of these must have fitness apps which will prove to be of lots of benefits in keeping you fit and healthy. Let’s have a look!

MyFitnessPal
MyFitnessPal understands the value of each and every calorie. The app is nothing but just a handy calorie counter which will keep a check over your calories intake throughout the day.  It works on some basic knowledge of yours which will help it in calculating the required calorie intake. You are required to provide your age, height and weight for the same. The app will then ask you with your desires i.e. you want to maintain the same weight, increase it or decrease it. It will ask you about your lifestyle like how much time you sit or how much time you are running. On the basis of this data, a daily required calorie intake is decided.

You are then just required to update the app with all your daily intakes of food like how much you have eaten and what all things you did for bringing the calories up!
The app has a large food database. In case, any of your food is not in the list, you can always add it up manually.
