I have tried several apps like this one. Fatsecret doesn't let you track certain nutrients in the free version (like iron), but it does let you adjust your daily goals for micros and macros, which is why I have stuck with it. I find the logging options to be somewhat lacking but you can add custom foods/meals in to make up for it.

Great app to track your daily calories, macros, and nutrients. I love the barcode scanner so you can scan in the exact food you're eating and not just pick something that looks like a close match. I've lost 5.8 lb so far! I tried the keto diet before this, and it didn't work for me. Counting calories with fat secret has been effective for me.

I've used this app for years to lose or maintain weight so it must be good. Lots of features with no notable ads all for free. If you're a developer, they've also got an API for free and you can use that to download all your data. If I've had one complaint it's that I don't like that the calendar begins with Monday but that's grasping for straws. Still I highly recommend this app! I'm still using this app years later. I love it! I can't recommend it enough! (Update : I hate the new food entry.)
