## What is Amy Food Journal?

Amy is a different take on calorie tracking.

It is the most frictionless experience: simply type the food you ate, like you would in Apple Notes, and Amy automatically logs and totals your calories for you.

The best way to put it: it is like Apple Notes was a calorie tracking app.

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2026-08-14*

It’s super convenient and easy to log food when it’s like typing in apple notes. Surprisingly accurate, well designed, and adorable widgets!

### 4/5 — Great food tracking alternative

*2026-08-12*

I really like the concept of writing food entries into an app like I’m writing in Apple notes. It’s more natural than to enter food with only pictures like Cal AI. Giving it 4 stars because there are a few bugs that detract from an otherwise excellent experience

### 5/5 — Best food tracker

*2026-07-29*

It’s simple, clean looking and easy to stick to over a longer time. Also it’s transparent about which sources were used and I can adjust if something feels off.

### 1/5 — Ai slop

*2026-06-25*

It’s super buggy, sometimes it is just stuck

### 5/5 — Best Calorie Tracking App

*2026-06-04*

Much prefer it to Cal AI , seems more accurate for British food. Cal AI only uses American data even though they are different to UK

### 1/5 — Does not load

*2026-05-27*

I just get a blank white screen? Can’t do anything.

### 3/5 — No support

*2026-05-20*

I have recently messaged about two issues I have with the app and have received zero response to either and we haven’t received an update in a month. I’m hoping the app is still supported as it’s my go-to currently. Issues being: 
1) no grouping foods together so you don’t see a long list and instead see “breakfast” “lunch” or whatever you label. This can also help stop accidentally deleting things when you go back to previous days (happens sometimes accidentally but no undo button).
2) if you eat the same food twice in one day with different serving sizes and you use the barcode scan OR label it as the same, the macros you put into the second serving will copy and overwrite onto the first serving. Obviously not wanted.

Thanks! Hope to see something soon!

### 2/5 — Not usable

*2026-04-30*

Hey mean, I know the app from your videos. Unfortunately on an iPhone 13 the app seems to be completely unusable. There’s lots of lags in the onboarding itself, like I barely can use the selects for weight & height etc. Not sure if it’s because of the animations (my first guess). Hope this helps :)

### 5/5 — I have been using this app for a week now

*2026-04-26*

I’m very impressed with the quality and how close it is in its calculations of calories and nutritional values. I used bite pal and fitness pal in the past but none of them were as exact. I love how simple it is to use and it’s become a simple habit to keep track of everything. I highly suggest giving this app a try 😁

### 5/5 — THE BEST calorie tracker

*2026-03-28*

What an amazing product! The core concept is spectacular on its own, and is further built on with equally awesome transparency, UI, convenience, etc. (And the cat theme!) Will be recommending to friends/family for sure!
