To supplement the app
You can use printed trackers in addition to logging foods digitally. Some people enjoy being able to reference both.
To track certain metrics
You may want a printed tracker if there is a specific metric like water intake or measurements that you want to monitor separately from the app.
To post on the fridge
Hanging your printed tracker on the fridge makes it readily available for meal planning and tracking during the week.
To bring to restaurants
Having your tracker handy when dining out makes calculating points easy. It also reinforces making healthy choices when you can see your goals.
