How it works

Take a photo of your meal and the app lists the foods with their portions, calories, protein, carbs and fat. Check them, fix anything with a tap and log the meal. You can also scan a barcode or a nutrition label, describe a meal in words, search more than 12,000 foods or quick add calories. Your plan, macros, water, weight and progress photos are on the Diary and Progress tabs.

Common questions

Which phones can scan meals?

Meal photos and descriptions are read by an AI model on your phone. Phones with Gemini Nano (such as Pixel 9 and newer and some Galaxy phones) use it right away. Other phones with 8 GB of memory or more download Google's Gemma model once, about 2.6 GB over Wi-Fi, when you choose to on the welcome steps, in Profile or on the add screen. Barcode, label, search and quick add work on every phone.

The calories or portions look wrong

Portions in a photo are estimates. Tap a food to change its weight or name, or tap Change food to pick the right food from the database, the calories update at once. Adding the foods you eat often to Favorites makes the next log a tap.

My barcode is not found

Barcodes are looked up in Open Food Facts, an open database. If a product is missing, scan its nutrition label or enter its numbers once, the app remembers it by its barcode next time.

How is my daily goal calculated?

From your sex, age, height, weight and activity with the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, minus or plus the calories of the weekly pace you picked, never below 1,200 calories a day for women and 1,500 for men. You can set your own goal and macro shares in Profile, Daily goal.

Is my diary private?

Yes. There is no account, and your diary, photos and body details stay on your phone. Meal photos are read on the phone itself. That also means we cannot restore your diary for you, it comes back only with an Android backup. Export diary in Profile saves it as a CSV file.

How do I delete my data?

Delete a single entry by opening it and tapping Delete, or everything with Profile, Delete all data. Uninstalling the app removes everything too, and Profile, AI on your phone deletes the downloaded model.

Is this medical advice?

No. The app gives estimates for general wellness. Talk to a doctor before big changes to your diet, especially if you are pregnant, under 18 or have a medical condition.
