## What is Caltype?

Type what you eat. We keep you in shape.

I eat pretty healthy. Why am I not losing weight? Because a normal day has more in it than you remember. The coffees, the oil in the pan, the snack at four, the second glass.

Calorie tracking works. It shouldn't feel like homework. You don't search a database or weigh anything. Type it like a note, or say it: "coffee, a chicken wrap and a banana". Caltype counts the calories and protein in each thing it understood.

A PLAN FOR YOUR BODY
Tell Caltype your goal and a little about you. You get your numbers for a day and for the week: calories and protein. Lose weight, keep it off, build muscle or eat better. Your numbers follow from the goal you pick.

KNOW WHERE YOU STAND
Today shows what is left, what you ate and your protein. Week shows each day against the plan and what a day can have to land it. The week is the budget, so one big Saturday doesn't undo a good week.

YOUR COACH, EVERY MORNING
Every morning your coach sends one message, written from how your week is going: what to do today, and nothing to feel bad about.

WORKOUTS COUNT TOO
Type a run or a bike ride and it is added back to what you can eat that day.

ON YOUR HOME SCREEN
A widget shows what is left today without opening the app.

AWARENESS BEATS PERFECTION
Not whether dinner was 783 or 824 kcal. Whether today was 1,800 or 2,800. Close enough every day beats exact for a week.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account and no sign up. What you log is linked to a random ID, not to your name or email, and kept encrypted. We never sell your data.

In 17 languages.

SUBSCRIPTION
Caltype is free for 3 days. After that it is a monthly or yearly subscription at the price shown in the App Store, charged to your Apple ID. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings. Cancel during the free days and you pay nothing.
