## What is aical?

Logging calories should be as easy as sending a text.

Tell aical what you ate in your own words, in any language. It estimates calories, protein, carbs, and fat, and asks a short follow-up when a portion is unclear. Check the results and adjust anything before adding the meal to your diary.

GET A PLAN THAT FITS
Answer a few simple questions to get daily calorie and macro targets, a healthy pace, and a projected goal date.

SEE THE WHOLE DAY
See what you’ve eaten and how much you have left today, at a glance. Follow weight trends, explore weekly charts, and revisit any logged day from the calendar. Add a Home Screen widget and sync with Apple Health if you choose.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
No account or sign-up. Your food diary is stored on your iPhone, and Apple Health sync is always optional.

Type or dictate a meal description, scan a packaged food’s barcode, reuse past meals, adjust portions, and log your weight in seconds.

Your diary, plan, charts, widget, and Apple Health sync are free. aical Pro unlocks unlimited AI food logging and barcode scans with a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2022-04-24*

Took my money and not working

**Developer response:** Hi, we’re sorry this happened. aical has since been completely rebuilt, including its subscription and meal-logging systems. If you were charged but couldn’t use the app, please contact us through App Support so we can investigate and help restore your access.

### 5/5 — Amazing App!

*2020-03-11, version 1.5*

I absolutely love the clean design of the app and the multiple ways in which it allows you to count your calories. Easy and fast to use, even in my most busy days.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2020-01-30*

I've always wanted to know and be able to control how many calories I eat each meal, but I've always found it too difficult. The struggle of searching each ingredient and its caloric value is just too much work in this busy world. Fortunately this app does everything for me. Just a quick picture of the food and all the answers are revealed to me with zero effort! I recommend! 👍

### 5/5 — Really useful and simple calorie counter

*2020-01-14*

I like how easy is to count my calories with this app and siri integration makes everything very convenient.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2020-01-13, version 1.3*

I love this app! Has a great user experience and it’s really easy to use. It changed my routine and helps me keeping track of the calories consumption.  It’s perfect if you want to find a way of approximating your food intake

### 5/5 — Really easy to use calorie counter

*2019-12-19*

The app makes calories counting fast, I just take a picture of my food or bar code and I’m done. If I forget to do this, I just tell siri to log my meal.

### 5/5 — Really easy to use

*2019-12-18, version 1.2*

The app is really easy to use, both with cooked food or just by scanning the bar codes. Siri integration is also handy when I forget to snap a meal.

### 1/5 — Very basic and incorrect

*2019-11-15*

MVP doesn’t mean you can release whatever you want and ask for monthly fee too. Too basic app and incorrect in calculating calories.

**Developer response:** Hello! Firstly, thanks for your feedback, we are constantly working to improve our product. As for your concerns, our app provides an estimate of the nutritional intake, you can do it for free up to 3 times a day, so you don't really have to pay for our service. As for the "basic app" part, we wanted to offer you a simple, user friendly tool for measuring your calories intake.

### 5/5 — handy app

*2019-11-13, version 1.0*

really easy to use, no need to write or calculate anything. 
I would add some sort of a pressed state to the camera button though, right now you can’t tell if you are pressing it or not.
great job!
