You know I'm a huge fan of Healthi formerly iTrackbites (who wouldn't be? It's WW for 1/10 of the cost), but with the new WW plans the app needs a little work around to make the Green plan work on Healthi formerly iTrackbites!
The information in this post is directly from an iTrackBites coach and deemed accurate at time of posting.

How to Do the WW Green Plan on Healthi formerly iTrackbites
It's very simple to do WW Green on Healthi formerly iTrackbites!
Sugar Smart = Green WW Plan
You get the same number of Bites (Points) on the Sugar Smart Program that you do on the Green Plan. The difference is, you need to set up rollovers.
Go into your Settings, 4th line down, go to extra allowance. Add in rollovers as a type of activity.
Under Activity Allowance, make sure you have Weekly selected. So now they will add up cumulatively throughout the week.
This is a PRO feature but if you want to use the free program only, just remember your daily rollovers.

I have my secondary tracking set up as MACROS. I don't care about calories so much, so Macros make sense for me.
Can You Lose Weight on the WW Green Plan?
Yes, yes, yes you can! The Green Plan is the best plan for those who need accountability.
iTrackBites Features
Why should you switch from WW to Healthi formerly iTrackbites? Honestly, you don't have to! You can stick with WW if you love the program and don't mind the extra cost. But Healthi formerly iTrackbites uses the same formulas, is accurate, and is about 1/10 of the price of WW Online.
- cost: Healthi formerly iTrackbites costs $36 for the year (using this link for 40% off makes it $36 if you use COACH_SMILEY as the code. You need to put in the code to save the MOST $$$), WW is $16+ for the month, and it's the same formula! UPDATE JAN 2021 — sign up for a free account, then use code COACH_SMILEY after your profile is set up. Click DISCOVER PRO, enter the promo code, and you'll get Healthi formerly iTrackbites for just $24.99 a year!! Use this tutorial if you're unsure on how to use a promo code on iTrackBites. (They keep changing this!! So I update this tutorial often.)
- choices: I can choose PointsPlus, Freestyle, or any other plan I want with Healthi formerly iTrackbites. Even with the new WW changes, they only offer 3 plan options (not PointsPlus).
- logs: You can export your tracker data by the week, month, or quarter with Healthi formerly iTrackbites. WW does not give you access to quarterly data.
- accuracy: I've found inaccurate info in the WW app due to members submitting and not paying attention to the right numbers. With Healthi formerly iTrackbites, I know if I see the green check, it's been verified as accurate. This puts my mind at ease!

How Do you set up the secondary tracking set up as MACROS. Any help appreciated
I found this information on their website. I hope it helps. https://help.itrackbites.com/support/solutions/articles/13000060399-2-4-settings-secondary-metric-calories-macros
MAKE SURE people watch the You Tube video you posted because your article doesn’t mention anything about HOW EXACTLY to make sure any unused daily points (4 and under) roll into the next day. I did the two steps you mentioned, but people NEED to watch that You Tube video to do it.
I notice on the sugar smart program, chobani ff greek yogurt is only
1 point where the green plan on ww is 2 points. Also 4 eggs whites is usually 1 point but it is free on itrackbites. Will this make a difference. Thank you.
There are a few minor discrepancies. The iTrackBites team is working on it. Thank you for letting me know about these I will inform them right away and I am sure they will get it fixed.
I just checked Marie Callender’s Teriyaki chicken bowl. We is 6 pets itrack is 11. That’s a lot.
The chicken teriyaki bowl on myWW is 11 points and on iTrackbites, it is 12 points. The chicken teriyaki bowl and sweet pineapple is 6 points on myWW and 11 on iTrackBites. I will write to iTrackbites and see why there is a difference. I will get back to you as soon as I know.
I noticed my daily points on ww are not the same as iTrackBites. I thought sugar smart was supposed to be the same as the green plan. Any thoughts?
Did you set up rollover points? Sugar Smart is similar to the green plan. The points should be the same. Here is a post about how to set up the rollover points. How to do the myWW Green Plan on iTrackBites I hope this helps let me know if I can help you further.

I noticed that my “weekly” points are fewer for for itrack Sugar Smart vs WW Green– I don’t mean for activity; just the regular extra weeklies that roll over from day to day and reset at the start of each week.
Send screenshots of your settings to [email protected] We will get this figured out 🙂
