Where Samsung Food is better
Samsung Food has far more recipes, over 240,000 public ones, plus food communities, grocery delivery through partner stores and, with Food+, nutrition tracking and meal plans built around a health goal. It also runs on Android. If you want one app for everything about food, it does more than Eatpace. Eatpace only plans dinner, and is iPhone only for now.

Does Eatpace track nutrition?
Every dinner shows its calories and protein per serving, and the full nutrition is on the recipe. Eatpace plans dinners; it does not log what you eat.

1246 dinners of our own, each with a photo, the time and the nutrition, plus every recipe you save. That is far fewer than Samsung Food, and it is only dinner.

Free to start. Your first plan is made for you, and after that you build each plan yourself, with the grocery list, cook mode and 5 swaps per plan. Free also holds 10 saves from recipe sites, 3 from a video or photo, and a Cookbook of 20 recipes. Pro is $39.99 a year or $4.99 a month for a new plan every week, no limits and inviting your partner, with a 7-day free trial once, on the yearly plan.
