## What is FitDIY?

FitDIY is the do-it-yourself fitness tracker: one private app for everything you train and everything you eat, built for people who run their own program.

FOOD, WITHOUT THE FRICTION
- Log a meal in seconds: scan a barcode, tap a favorite, or enter it by hand
- Daily calories and protein tracked against your targets, with carbs and fat alongside
- Set a goal weight and pace, and FitDIY suggests daily calories and a macro split from your body stats, your planned training week, and your average steps
- The suggestion recalibrates from your real logs over time

WEIGHT, AS A TREND
- Weigh-ins become a smoothed trend line, not daily noise
- Projection to your goal weight at your current rate
- Smart-scale entries sync in from Apple Health

TRAINING, YOUR WAY
- Strength: log sets with reps, load, and RIR; double progression suggests when to add reps and when to add load
- Cardio: runs, intervals, bike, row - logged and mirrored to Apple Health
- BJJ: sessions with rounds, intensity, and soreness; recovery flags when hard days stack
- A weekly plan you own, with a ramp-in for coming back from a layoff

SEE IT, REVIEW IT
- Record lifts and rolls; trim, slow-mo, and scrub frame by frame
- Progress photos in a private, app-local gallery
- Reflections: a quick good/bad and a note after any session
- Reports: chart any metric, overlay two, and see how they move together

YOURS, FULL STOP
- No account. No ads. No analytics. No cloud.
- Everything lives on your device; Apple Health sharing is opt-in and under your control
- Delete any entry, or everything, anytime

FitDIY reads and writes Apple Health data (weight, workouts, steps) only with your permission and only for the features above. Estimates are labeled as estimates — you can always override them.

Product data from Open Food Facts (ODbL) and USDA FoodData Central.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.0 — 2026-07-16

A MUCH BIGGER FOOD DATABASE
• Offline food search now covers 2,100+ common foods and dishes - sandwiches, salads, mixed dishes - ranked by what people actually eat, with typo-tolerant matching.
• Suggested now: one-tap logging of what you usually eat around this time of day, learned from your own log on your own phone.
• Recent foods remembers three times as many entries.
• Barcode scanning reads the new square 2D codes appearing on fresh-food packaging, alongside regular barcodes.

TRAINING
• Add or remove sets mid-session - a good day isn't capped at the plan, a short day logs honestly.
• All workouts by day: a new history view that shows everything you did each day, with total weight moved and trophies on record days.
• Beat a record and share it: clean card images for new PRs and full workout days, rendered on the phone.

AND
• "Why is FitDIY free?" - the honest answer, in About & settings.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-07-11

GET STARTED FASTER
• A short welcome tour on first launch: set up your lifts, nutrition targets, and a first weigh-in in one pass. Every step is optional, and you can replay the tour anytime from About & settings.
• One-time tips on your first visit to Food, Train, and Body, each linking into the built-in user guide.
• The user guide now covers the photo scanner, hinge rep counting, the per-set rest timer, and Apple Health cardio.

SMALL FIXES
• The add-exercise form now catches typo-sized load increments before they save, and dismisses the keyboard on scroll.

### 1.2 — 2026-07-10

SCAN YOUR PLATE (experimental)
• New camera button on the Food tab: photograph a meal and an on-device AI model identifies the foods and portions for you to confirm, edit, and log. Optional ~2.6 GB model download; photos and data
never leave your phone.

TRAINING QUALITY OF LIFE
• Camera rep counting learns the hip hinge - deadlifts and RDLs now count - plus per-lift camera setup tips for more reliable counts.
• The rest timer now starts after each set, not after logging the whole exercise.
• Log a different weight per set; the prescription is a suggestion, not a cage.
• Switching between Lift and Conditioning keeps your half-entered session.
• See cardio recorded by your watch or other apps alongside your own log - read-only, from Apple Health, opt-in.

### 1.1 — 2026-07-09

- Tip jar - support the creator with an optional $5 tip in About & settings
- Metric or standard units: one toggle converts weight, waist, height, and barbell loads across the app
- In-app user guide
- Camera rep counting for lifts - processed on-device, nothing is uploaded
- Weekly nutrition adherence view
- Built-in generic food database for manual entry, no barcode needed
- Swipe to delete waist entries; bodyweight lifts now start from your latest weigh-in
