With your target listed each day, then your entires would count down. ### 4/5 — Is what I was looking for *2025-10-09, version 1.20.0* This app is simple and allows me to enter my meals and already known calories to track everyday. Just what I need. A few things that would be simple to correct/add are 1. “Chart” is spelled “Cart” in the settings…. 2. If you could favorite meals and have a favorites list to pull rather than typing it out every time. This adds more convenience for the user. 3. I also wish the chart had a month and a year chart rather then a fluctuating week. 4. Adding those charts and also creating in the data a way to sort for long term tracking like week, months, and years rather than just a never ending list of daily intake summaries. I think those changes would make it the perfect simple app for people who just need a spot to track that is more convenient than the notes app or a google sheet. ### 5/5 — Perfectly Simple *2025-07-25, version 1.18.0* This was just what I needed. Thank you! ### 4/5 — Literally just calories *2025-07-19, version 1.18.0* All the other apps I looked for wanted me to get on a program and stuff, which was inconveinent because I just wanted to track calories for the program I’m already taking. I looked for a SIMPLE calorie tracker, and this is EXACTLY what it is. If this is all you want GET this app. ### 5/5 — Tracking *2025-06-20, version 1.18.0* The app is well organized and easy to tract diet ### 4/5 — One request *2025-02-08, version 1.16.0* I like the app and really appreciate that it’s simple but I do wish there was an option to go back and add foods to past days. I know you can update meals but there’s no option to add a new snack or meal in case you forgot to log it. ### 5/5 — Finally *2024-10-11, version 1.16.0* Simple, and perfect for those that have tracked for years and don’t want all the searching and details. Just tracking the numbers you can likely guess off the top of your head. Thanks for keeping it simple ### 5/5 — Does the job *2024-08-25, version 1.15.0* I’m satisfied ### 4/5 — No frills calorie tracker *2024-06-21, version 1.15.0* Just what I was looking for - simple to use and truly free. ### 5/5 — Love the simplicity! *2024-04-03, version 1.14.0* I wanted a simple app to track calories but all the other ones I looked at were too complicated. This one is perfect and straight to the point :) ### 5/5 — FINALLY! *2024-03-10, version 1.13.0* AT LAST! The simplest possible way to to track my calories. Every other tracking app is complete nonsense. Trust me; I most certainly know because I’m in impeccable shape. Only out-of-shape nerds will give this app a low rating. Nice one, Mr. Developer. Andrew Tate the 🐐 ### 5/5 — Calorie counter : Excellent *2024-02-16, version 1.12.0* I have wasted so much money on fancy calorie apps. This app is simple. You enter your food and then calories. Wala! Done. It documents the time. Easy to review your logs. I love it! ### 5/5 — Simple and no account required *2024-02-12, version 1.12.0* No bloat and I appreciate not being immediately forced to create an “account” like in other apps. Why should a calorie app require someone to create an account? it’s completely unnecessary. ### 5/5 — Simple and no account required *2024-01-28* No bloat and I appreciate not being immediately forced to create an “account” like in other apps. Why should a calorie app require someone to create an account? it’s completely unnecessary. ### 5/5 — Simple, easy to use interface *2024-01-11, version 1.12.0* This is just what I was looking for a simple solid easy to use calorie counter, no useless bloat, or unnecessary data collection and no subscription pay model. ### 5/5 — The Best *2024-01-03, version 1.12.0* All other apps you have to put in all your information but this app just lets you add your calories and adds them up for you . This is the best app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-05-10, version 1.15.0* Can’t find anyone who knows what is wrong with the app and able to fix it. Will not sync across mobile devices. Junk and developers do not care. Camel Jockeys probably. ### 1/5 — Hhhmmmmm!!! *2023-07-11, version 1.10.0* Does the same as a pen and paper I thought it would calculate calories, but nah! ### 1/5 — Not so simple *2023-03-31, version 1.8.0* I can’t give this app a good review because there is no place to cancel the subscription. I’ve looked for it everywhere and can’t find any support at all. Trying to contact them is impossible because the information is in a foreign language. I would appreciate help from the developer. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2022-06-03, version 1.5.0* I thought this would work out calories for the food but it just logs them. ### 2/5 — don’t bother *2023-09-24, version 1.12.0* not worth it ### 2/5 — Very basic *2022-11-23, version 1.7.0* This is a very basic, no frills app that helps you count calories. It would honestly be only slightly more inconvenient to use Apple's Notes app for what this app does, given this app's paucity of features. Main reason I chose this app over the others with bells and whistles is because this app seems to have better data privacy. Some features that would improve this app would be the ability to create and save favorite meals and the ability to break down meals by item and calories. ### 3/5 — N *2026-01-17, version 1.23.0* Unstoppable ads, otherwise very good app ### 3/5 — Very VERY basic *2024-08-19, version 1.15.0* As others have said not much better then pen and paper as you have to calculate calories yourself. I’ll keep it but no WAY am I paying £8 for it 🤣. I’ll watch the ads thanks. ### 3/5 — A bit of work? *2024-02-12, version 1.12.0* I think this app could be improved if it were to repopulate on other (Apple) devices. Also a workaround whereby daily weight could be added without sneaking in a 1 Cal amount to activate the update function. Nevertheless, I am using the app and enjoy it. Richard ### 3/5 — Create a way to export data *2022-12-15, version 1.7.0* Very simple for what I need. I do kind of wish there was a way to export data if I want it for later! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great Simple App! *2026-06-20, version 1.25.0* I love this app because of how simple and easy to use it is. I’ve tried other calorie counters and they’re all paid, fake ai trash apps. This app lets me input the calories myself, and then just tracks the data. Very simple, removes the stress of calorie counting. ### 5/5 — Finally an app that does its job *2026-06-19, version 1.25.0* Doesn’t shove the subscription in my face nonstop, doesn’t add a million features, looks simple and elegant, and gets the job done. I just with you could save meals so logging would be a little faster. ### 5/5 — Bought the app. Didn’t get premium (fixed) *2026-06-04, version 1.25.0* I really like the app. Please fix this for me, i submitted a google doc about it. ### 5/5 — I liked this because of how simple it is *2026-04-01, version 1.23.0* Very simple but does have ads that’s all ### 5/5 — Epstein *2026-03-27, version 1.23.0* Simple ### 5/5 — I don’t like the advertising but it’s free lol. *2025-10-03, version 1.20.0* Cool app ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-09-09, version 1.19.0* Really like just need to also have protein counter ### 5/5 — Finally an app that does its job *2025-09-03, version 1.19.0* Doesn’t shove the subscription in my face nonstop, doesn’t add a million features, looks simple and elegant, and gets the job done. I just with you could save meals so logging would be a little faster. ### 5/5 — Matt *2025-08-26, version 1.19.0* Simple and easy, the best app for tracking calories ### 5/5 — GREAT! *2025-08-05, version 1.18.0* Finally a simple app that helps me log my intake - I hate all the other apps that calculate calories etc it becomes mundane and takes over my life! With this, I just figure out an average and bang it in, it’s less of a chore, quick and easy and keeps me on track! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
