## What is Calorie Mama AI?

The simplest and easy-to-use calorie counter app
- Automatically count calories by taking food photos!
- Recognizes even complex dishes from restaurants
- Meal plans and recipes (Keto, Paleo, Vegan, etc)
- Training plans created by top personal trainers

Automatically count calories by taking food photos! We believe calorie counting should be as simple, fun, and easy as taking a picture of your food. Calorie Mama can tell you the calories in your food just by analyzing your food photos. It can recognize thousands of food categories including staples such as fruits, vegetables, meats, grains, beverages; complex cuisines and dishes such as American, Western, European, Asian, Latin American; and US/Canada packaged foods with a front-facing image or barcode.

How It Works:
1) Snap a picture of your food 
2) Calorie Mama analyzes your food photo and suggests what the food might be
3) Confirm the food to log your calories!
 
The more you snap, the more accurate and smarter Calorie Mama gets!

More Details:
The creators of Fitness Buddy, Instant Heart Rate, Argus, and Sleep Time bring to you Calorie Mama, a simple, elegant food tracker and calorie counter uses food recognition machine learning algorithms to identify many different foods, including packaged goods and barcodes.

### 2/5 — Looks like Eato with Bugs

*2026-02-15, version 5.444*

The bar code scanner is screwed up. Sometimes it works but every time (except the first time) it does not show the live image of the item you are scanning in the app, but a still photo of the last item you scanned. Eato is not perfect but it has a better scanner.

### 1/5 — Crashes frequently and not great data

*2025-10-15, version 5.418*

It crashed 6 times when trying to take a photo to get calories. When it did finally work it only recognized one item and said it had zero calories

### 5/5 — Loss  weight

*2025-07-18, version 5.418*

Look  good

### 5/5 — Appreciate it

*2025-05-13, version 5.418*

This app is amazing and free🤩
I never thought this apps exist and it easy to use. Thank for making this app free.

### 3/5 — App is crashing

*2024-11-17*

Needs to have a way to provide only write access to new photos and not see/read existing photos in gallery.

### 3/5 — Needs Improvement

*2024-11-09, version 5.418*

I love this app
The only issue is the steps not being updated and it affects the calories calculation

### 4/5 — Please add dark mode

*2024-10-09, version 5.418*

I have a vision disability and using an app like this would be great if it had dark mode to make it easier. Otherwise seems great!

### 1/5 — Very poor database of foods

*2024-09-08, version 5.418*

I’ve used a number of these apps for previous diets. This one has a nice interface and workflow for entering foods and counting calories. However, their database of food (photos, barcode scan, and search) is next to useless. This is the most important factor in an app like this. They need to improve this quickly, otherwise their rating will continue to drop. Also, their food unit entry mechanism is buggy and makes entering quantities very tedious. Their photo recognition functionality is mediocre at best. LoseIt! is a much better database and better value for money.

### 4/5 — Cannot record workout?

*2024-08-18, version 5.418*

It’s overall a good app, because it has the free counting calories and scanning functions.
 
However, I would not purchase the premium subscription because I cannot log in my workouts.  

This app could be so much better if there was a free trial for the subscription, because I’m not sure that I will have access to all the functions even after payment.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2024-08-04, version 5.418*

The photo recognition only gets one ingredient like “eggs” in a dish of scrammbled eggs with many other visible ingredients. 

Entering other ingredients manually doesn’t work. The app thinks peppers and mushrooms have zero calories.

Pretty bad experience overall.
