Great app & dev
I have been using calorie tracker and nutrition macro trackers for years. Hoot is my favorite. I appreciate the clean, intuitive approach and interface. The data is accurate. The developer is responsive and genuinely cares about the users. The ongoing changes and improvements to the app are impressive and much appreciated.

Quick and easy
So far everything seems simple and easy to use, either dictate or take a picture of the food or package
Exactly what I’ve been looking for
If you’re tired of the same ole’ boring calorie log then this is for you. It’s adorable and so helpful. The ai camera is so easy to use and very accurate. I’m so happy I found the perfect tracker. Download it. You won’t be disappointed!
Great app
Good app alternative for MyFitnessPal. Good tracking and decent AI photo logging.
However, whenever I click on “Progress,” the app crashes. ios 26.5 iphone 15 pro max

Fix the done button please
All the rest is good…. Done button is mostly off the screen and very difficult to select!
Loving it!
So easy to use! Helps me keep track of what I’m eating and gives me recommendations to enhance my diet. Haven’t gotten my calories burned tracker yet but I believe I can connect it to app to get an even better idea of how to best lose weight and maintain weight loss. I paid yearly fee and so far it’s been totally worth it.

Helpful and Encouraging
I have been using hoot for about three weeks now, and am benefitting from it. I have tried a few different apps in this space and have settled on this one. I’m looking for a tracking app to help me log meals and lose weight, but also one that guides me to eat better. Each meal you log in Hoot gives a nutrition score, and tips on how to make it better. So while my morning smoothie was relatively healthy, it could be even better with some spinach and chia seeds. Not something I didn’t know, but a good reminder. Tips are always given in an encouraging, non-judgemental manner. The daily nutrition scores are motivating and I’m trying to improve them.
The logging via photo and voice/text is pretty impressive. Occasionally it will hiccup. What is nice is that the app will show you the assumptions it used to come to the calculation. You can review that and do a “quick adjust” such as “that was not ground beef, but chorizo” or “I had two servings.” Calories and macros are updated automatically.
The developer is very open to feedback, and reached out to me personally for improvement ideas. One that I’d like to see is to make it easier to copy recent meals to today without first making it a favorite. He was in agreement and said others have requested this as well and is already under development.
This is a solid app that will only get better with time. The premium subscription is worth the price when compared to similar offerings. Give it a try! You won’t be disappointed!

Burt, this absolutely made our day. Thank you for the thoughtful review and for taking the time to share what’s working and what we can improve on! Quick update for you: the recent meals feature you asked about is live as of this weekend. You can now log a recent meal straight to today without favoriting it first. Your feedback directly shaped how we built it, so thank you for the nudge. Keep the ideas coming. — The Hoot team 🦉
The best Calorie tracker out there!
Hoot makes calorie tracking unbelievably easy. The AI food logging is fast, accurate, and saves me so much time compared to other apps. I love that it doesn’t feel tedious or overwhelming, it actually makes it simple to stay consistent. Definitely one of the best nutrition apps out there.
Way Better than MyFitnessPal!
Hoot is amazing! I've used MyFitnessPal for years but Hoot is on another level. Logging food is super easy, calorie tracking is noticeably more accurate, and the insights are helpful and motivating. The interface is also really nice and easy to navigate. As a busy mom, I don't have a lot of time for apps but Hoot makes it simple to keep track of what I'm eating. I love Hoot and I highly recommend it!

Finally made it easy to count my calories!
I have struggled to get started with these types of things but this was the first app that I wanted to use. Highly recommend it.
Easiest calorie tracker ever
Finally quit myfitnesspal after they kept changing it for the worse and charging too much. Found Hoot in the App Store and have been using it every day since. Highly recommend!!
Excellent!
I have been using Hoot for a short time, but so far have been very satisfied with it. Having tried many similar apps over the years, I can safely say that Hoot is one of the most user friendly and visually appealing apps of its kind I have seen. Not only that, the food scanning feature is very accurate. I look forward to continuing to use it for my weight loss journey. Keep up the great work Hoot!

Thanks so much for this. Hearing Hoot stands out after you've tried a bunch of other apps means so much! Wishing you all the best on your weight loss journey. We're rooting for you.
An easy-to-use health guide
I downloaded Hoot right after a beach vacation over the holidays that left me feeling like less than my fittest self. In only a few months, the calorie tracking (with a calorie ceiling recommended by the app!) HAS made a big difference in how my pants fit. It’s a breeze to use & it helps me be more intentional about what I eat.

Response from developer
Love this. The fact that you went from that post-vacation feeling to actually seeing results in a few months is exactly what Hoot is built for. And 'more intentional about what I eat' is the whole goal. Not perfection, just awareness. Thanks for sharing this and keep it going.
Simple, Smart & Actually Helpful
Love this app! It makes tracking food and macros super easy without feeling overwhelming. The AI feature is surprisingly accurate and saves so much time. Perfect for staying on track with health goals while keeping things simple. Keeps me on track. Highly recommend! 💪✨
Response from developer
Staying on track while keeping things simple is what we strive for! Thanks so much for the review and glad to hear you've had a good experience so far.
Yes!
Finally, an app that makes calorie-counting fun.
Macro tracking made easy!
I’ve used a lot of calorie trackers, and this is by far the easiest. The AI is super impressive. It identifies ingredients from homemade recipes. Love Hoot!
Best Tracker Yet
I’ve used many trackers and I just started using this app. But it is by far the easiest app to use when logging your food intake. The ability to dictate and/or just take a picture is awesome!
Response from developer
Thank you for the kind words, Dave! Lot's more on the way for Hoot, but we'll always strive to be the easiest option for logging for food.
Doug
This app nails it. Gets all the intuitive features right and makes tedious tracking really easy. Highly recommend for anyone who’s been let down by the other apps in this space. Hoot rules.

Doug rules!
Lovin Hoot!
I am on a weight loss journey and my doctor wanted me to get a calorie tracker app. She told me most use My Fitness Pal. She told me not to pay for it though. She said it’s a waste of money and way over priced. Well she wanted me eating 1500 calories. I’m following my doctors orders! Well MFP required me to pay to change my calorie goal. So I did it. Ugh I hate that app. It’s so complicated and as a person that is AuDHD it was really overwhelming and discouraging.
Well I moved on to Hoot. I saw the owl and thought it was cute. I paid way less for it and it is way less overwhelming.
I had an issue with the app and got frustrated because it was working so well then one day it wasn’t. So I decided I’d try messaging them. To my surprise I got a response from a developer. That was crazy! I had no idea it was new. So I told him my issue and he fixed it!!! It was amazing. I enjoy giving him ideas of cool things that, I would enjoy if they added and he has helped fix any bugs I have come across.
You can tell they really care. He even congratulated me when I lost 30lbs so far!!! I have really enjoyed getting to be a part of the beginning of this app. There are still lots of learning that the AI needs to do but I enjoy filling in my Macros myself to help it learn. I really love this app and encourage others to join in the fun of watching this app grow!!! I can’t wait to see what else is to come!!! Maybe we could get cool awards when we reach our goals like maybe we could personalize the app as we reach goals…?!? I think it would be cool if we could name our owl or change colors or earn stars or achievements or choose different animals.
I really love the possibilities!

Best review ever! Your feedback has been so helpful so far, please keep it coming. Congrats again on your progress so far and thanks for letting Hoot be a part of your journey.
Great tracking app!
I’ve used multiple other tracking apps in the past. This one is by far the easiest and most intuitive I’ve used. Plus it is so dang cute! I love Hoot the owl!
