I currently use LoseIt as well and have for the past few years. Honestly I would say it's worth buying the lifetime purchase when it goes on sale around the New Year. It's usually marked down to around $30ish and in my opinion is worth it if it's going to be a daily use thing. I like the UI and it's pretty intuitive and the large barcode library is a big plus.

But I also get some people just want a free tracker that's simple to use. Unfortunately it feels like those are becoming harder and harder to find anymore. So I'd much rather just pay once and have the app unlocked and ads removed rather then a subscription bleeding me over time.

Not sure where they are native too, but I live in eastern Pennsylvania and this guy was hanging out around my bulkhead doors out back.
