Cash grab, don’t download.
Disappointed. This used to a be a great way to track calories on campus. Dining hall foods would all be available. Everything is locked behind a paywall. Nigh unusable app. It just takes space on your phone. Honestly if you looking to download this app, just tell Claude to make you a better app. It’ll most likely do better.

Hey Charles, Thanks for your feedback. The reason we charge a subscription is because it costs money to run our servers, and well as marketing so that we can expand CampusFuel to other universities. We tried to price CampusFuel as cheap as we possibly could ($2.50 a month, less than half the price of myfitnesspal) in order to make it accessible to students since I too am a broke college student so I get it. Please let us know if you have any more feedback, feel free to email
A great app that could use a few additions
Additionally, not being able to manually input macros and calories and having to rely on the AI/general food database is pretty confusing, as the database is useless if you’re cooking, and manually adding macros seems like a pretty easy feature to add(especially since it’s already included in the bar code scanning). Also, for the 2-3 days where barcode scanning was free, it was pretty unreliable from my experience so most of the time I had to change the macros anyway.
With these 2 fixes the app would essentially be perfect and would literally be an auto-download for anybody with a meal plan.
excellent
Great app, some bugs but they quickly get fixed
Great App
Good
Was good until made me pay

Thanks for the feedback! Just to clarify, the core calorie tracking features are completely free and is a complete calorie tracker. Beyond VT dining hall meals, you can search and log any food through the General Foods tab in the food database, which includes a large library of everyday items at no cost. The only features behind the Pro tier are AI-powered tools and barcode scanning — both of which cost me to run, which is why I can't offer them as free features. Keeping everything else free while covering those costs is the reason Pro exists, not to gate the core experience. The app is fully functional as a complete calorie tracker without ever paying anything. Typical calorie trackers like myfitnesspal and MacroFactor charge $80 a year just to use the app, our much cheaper $29.99 membership is completely optional and users can always use the apps core features for free. Hope that clears things up!
GOATED app
Must download for every VT student
