## What is Calories and nutrition tracker?

Virtuagym Food: Helping you to live healthy and feel great. Get a free personalized nutrition plan by answering a few questions about your lifestyle and goals. We support plans for many goals: weight loss, maintaining weight, weight gain and building muscle. Eat what you want, but keep an eye on those calories, carbs and fats!

FEATURES
* Food Database Validated by Expert Nutritionists
* Add your own foods
* Save meals and add them instantly next time
* Nutrition tracking for several goals (e.g. weight loss & muscle building)
* More than a calorie counter: keep an eye on those carbs, proteins and fats as well
* Integrated with Virtuagym Fitness for home & gym workouts
* Health app integration: Sync workouts from other apps, and save your eaten calories, carbs, proteins and fat in the Health app, so other apps can use this data

WHY VIRTUAGYM IS THE BEST
- Many other nutrition apps or calorie counters don’t have a lot of knowledge about fitness. Therefore, mistakes are being made with calorie tracking. Our apps are made in cooperation with fitness professionals and expert nutritionists, making Virtuagym the most accurate app on the market.
- It’s not a regular calorie counter. We count everything: carbs, proteins and fats, allowing you to use Virtuagym food for other goals than weight loss, like gaining weight and muscle building.
 - We were one of the first apps in the Health and Fitness category and over the last few years we have been featured in the Health and Fitness category in several countries.

VALIDATED FOOD DATABASE
Our food database is linked to several official food databases. These food databases are updated on a regular basis. The foods on this list have been validated by expert nutritionists.

FOR A VARIETY OF GOALS:
- Weight loss: focus on those calories to lose weight. Combine our calorie counter with exercising with Virtuagym Fitness and reach your goals!
- Maintaining weight: find the diet plan that’s right for you. You’ll get a balanced diet plan, with enough calories, carbs, proteins and fats.
- Gain weight: eat, eat, eat. Find out which foods help you to reach your goals.
- Building muscle: you’ll need protein. Lots of protein. Use our protein counter to see which foods are best for you.

DIFFERENT DIET PLANS:
We have diet plans for multiple goals. You can select your own diet plan (low carb, high protein, low calorie, whatever you want), and we provide you with your personal diet plan. Virtuagym Food comes with several diet plans:
- Durable
- High Protein Diet
- Low Carb Diet
- Muscle Building Diet
- Athlete
- Cardio 
- After Weight Loss Diet
- Custom: select your own percentages of carbohydrates, proteins and fats.

Another good thing about Virtuagym Food is that it can be used by vegetarians as well. You can eat whatever you want. Just keep an eye on the nutrients. So if you are vegetarian, just create your own vegetarian diet plan!

FULLY INTEGRATED WITH VIRTUAGYM FITNESS

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-08-12, version 6.2.0*

This app is great and simple. Does exactly what you want it to do. No messing about. I’d love a feature where you can send your tracked calories to another app, so  I don’t have repeatedly ask my partner the measurements and all the ingredients individually etc to in put on my app

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-06-21, version 6.2.0*

Where’s the AI scanner ?

### 1/5 — Use to love it, now doesn’t fit my needs.

*2026-06-05, version 6.2.0*

My doctor recommended this app because i need lose 4+ pounds a week for the next month, the app won’t let me put that in because it’s supposedly unhealthy. it use to allow that option. I no longer recommend this app because it changed the one thing i actually needed for once.

### 4/5 — Vue des macros

*2026-04-27*

Je préfère l’ancien vue qui permet de voir ce qu’on a déjà mangé. Pouvez-vous nous donner le choix entre la nouvelle vue ou l’ancienne comme ça au fil de la journée on peut mettre en avant ce qu’on veut. Surtout pour les protéines je préfère voir directement combien j’en ai déjà consommé plutôt que de voir combien il m’en reste

### 1/5 — Sort the calories out

*2026-03-22, version 6.0.0*

How can I have 2g of fat left 3G of carbs left and fit my protein and exceed my calories for the day? Explain that this cracker is completely off so your not eating what it is you need wouldn’t bother glad I get this app for free if I had to pay dear lord

### 2/5 — Not good outside of UK/US

*2026-02-10, version 5.2.2*

No option to make custom nutritional profiles based on products not available/indexed.

### 4/5 — Wat er nog beter zou kunnen

*2026-01-21, version 5.2.2*

Dat je gewoon en foto moet maken en dan zicht die al alles

### 1/5 — Images at body of screen

*2026-01-19, version 5.2.2*

Why are there half naked pics of people at the bottom of your screen. Also the app support is terrible

### 1/5 — Has very very basic Apple Health support (only weight)

*2026-01-06, version 5.2.2*

It is disappointing to discover that official Apple Health support is not available, especially since this only became clear after purchasing a yearly subscription.

The current Apple Health integration is very limited. From a user’s perspective, it would make much more sense for the app to retrieve the required data directly from Apple Health instead of relying on alternative integrations such as Onyx. Also who in their right mind is using Onyx when Withings is available on the Apple Store and officially supported and powered by Apple.

Tldr: Apple Health is the most widely used health platform among iPhone users. I hope proper and full Apple Health support will be added in the future, as this would greatly improve the value and usability of the app. As now I need to put every data manually (beside my weight because that is the only data pulled from Apple Health)

### 5/5 — Zeyno

*2025-12-24, version 5.2.2*

Motivasyon kaynağım bu aralar çok faydalı çok
