PlusPoints, the FREE points calculator and tracker on Windows Phone 7 for poeple who use the Weight Watchers diet plan. PlusPoints is a points tracking and calculating system for use with Windows Phone 7 devices, to make life easier for people who are using Weight Watchers.

PlusPoints will calculate points based on nutritional content, using the same calculations that Weight Watchers uses for its new PointsPlus program. PlusPoints will also track your daily and weekly points usage, and if you don’t know how many points you are allotted, PlusPoints will calculate it for you.

If you are a paid user of the Weight Watchers eTools, you can access Weight Watchers’ mobile web site from within the app, so you can look up restaurants, foods, etc. without even leaving the app.

This app will track your points right in the phone, without the need to access the web site, so you don’t have to have a good internet signal, and you don’t even have to have a Weight Watchers account to use it (without a Weight Watchers eTools account, you cannot use the web functionality).

Features:
* Calculate points using the calculator, without having to go to the web to calculate based on fat, carbs, fiber, and protein.
* Track your daily and weekly points used.
* See at a glance how many points you have left.
* View your points used for the week at a glance.
* Use the in-app browser to use Weight Watchers’ mobile site without the inconvenience of leaving the app.
* Let the app calculate your points allowed by entering your gender, age, weight, and height on the settings page.
* If you choose to do so, you can override the allowed points. Changing your gender, age, weight, or height will revert back to calculated point allowances.
