We don’t count calories. We don’t weigh our portions. We do something very different: we STOP and LOOK and take a picture of every bite BEFORE we eat it. Believe it or not, there have been studies that have found that the act of taking a picture before you take a bite is more effective than simply keeping a written journal.*  Already following a particular plan? dietSNAPS works with every program: from Paleo and Keto to DASH and 5:2, from Weight Watchers to Jenny Craig, to simply just eating clean, dietSNAPS works with you and the way you eat.  We hear everyday from the dietSNAPS community about how easy it is to use and how thrilled they are that they can FINALLY stick to keeping a journal. We look forward to hearing from you too.  DESCRIPTION:  • The easiest way to track your diet on the iPhone  • Use your camera to visually keep track of what you eat, drink, your exercise and more  • Email your dietSNAPS log to your nutritionist, personal trainer, doctor or diet buddy  • Export your log via .CSV and view your log (no photos) in Excel or other spreadsheet software  • Create PDF reports of your log USE dietSNAPS TO:  • Track your diet to help you lose weight  • Share your dietSNAPS photos on Facebook and Twitter  • Track your exercise • Keep track of food allergies and intolerances  • Monitor your IBS symptoms  • Keep a photographic journal of your culinary adventures ~ Bon Appétit! • Use the journal function to write how your day was, how you were feeling and how your diet was impacted  USER REVIEWS:  “This is the first diet tracker that I’ve been able to stick with for more than a few days!” by lillith99 (5 Stars) “I’m using it to keep track of my blood sugars and my food intake.

It's not complicated and keeps me on track. Whenever I've gained a few pounds, I start with the app again, and I can no longer tell myself that it was just an extra bite here or there because I have the pictures to prove otherwise. ### 2/5 — Saving information *2017-08-04, version 2.0.2* Not too thrilled with this app. I wrote an entry (a whole paragraphs worth) and I forgot to press save.if you don't press save, you lose all of your information. Most apps, from my experience, automatically save information without requiring you to press save first. I do not recommend this app unless they fix this problem. ### 5/5 — Must have *2017-03-20, version 2.0.2* Must have app!!!! Living with severe allergies and food sensitivities this app is a life saver. ### 4/5 — Fit for purpose *2017-02-16, version 2.0.2* I don't need to count calories to lose weight, I just need to reduce snacking and so for that purpose a simpler app where I log my eating habits is helping me lose weight just fine. ### 5/5 — Slimmer by the minute *2017-02-08, version 2.0.2* I never have time to write down what I ate when I'm out. This is a great way to keep true to my plan and my diet partner. Thank you for the great idea! Thanks for updating. ### 5/5 — This App Rocks!!! *2017-02-06, version 2.0.2* I love how simple and easy this app is- so easy to make a habit! Highly recommended! ### 5/5 — Avenal *2016-06-06, version 2.0.1* Using since last revision. Does all it promises. Still use daily. ### 4/5 — Easy track of your diet *2015-04-07, version 2.0.1* I like the app. It is simple to use. It makes me easy to write a food diary. However, the app often does not properly function with "Take a photo" option. It gets a bit annoying.. wish this crash was fixed, and the app was operating more stable. ### 5/5 — Great App *2015-01-29, version 2.0.1* I am so tired of trying to remember to write in my journal every day of what I ate. Now I can take a picture and easily keep track. I can also see how much I have eaten. I absolutely "Love" the app. AlephDog ### 3/5 — Nice and simple, needs time stamp correcting and ability to save lower resolution *2015-01-03, version 2.0.1* Hi Good little simple app for tracking diet and other notes. Far better than many other more complex ones Two fixes needed for a while: Time stamp generally doesn't default to the current time, but rather a recent time in the app - this doesn't make sense and seems to be a bug Also, the app stores high resolution images. That means that quickly it can start to hog 4-5gb of storage space. It'd be better if either low resolution photos were stored instead, or there was the ability to purge history from a certain point, to free up phone space Other than those two issues, really recommended ## Frequently asked questions about dietSNAPS ### What is dietSNAPS? dietSNAPS is a diet and food tracker that focuses on visually logging your meals and exercise by taking photos before you eat.

We built it because what we wanted—a daily food log with photos—didn’t exist. We intentionally kept it simple to make it something you could easily use every single day. Today, more than 10 years later, it’s still downloaded almost everyday. Thank you to everyone who’s ever purchased this app and made it a part of their daily routine. We want to do more than “say” thank you. We want to show you our gratitude. Over the next several months, we are going to be adding some functionality that you’ve been requesting for a while. In order to understand how you’re using the app, we are updating the app now to capture some analytics. NONE of the information we capture is about any individual and we will NEVER share or sell this data. We simply need to understand how the app is being used so we can build a better app—while still keeping it simple. Again, many thanks.
