## What is kael?

Eat smarter, train sharper — with a nutrition coach that actually adapts.

kaél turns your camera into a nutritionist. Snap any meal, and our AI identifies what's on the plate and logs calories, protein, carbs and fat in seconds. No more searching databases or guessing portions.

SCAN & TRACK
• AI meal scanning — photo to full macros in seconds
• Barcode scanning and manual logging for everything else
• Water, workouts, weight, and progress photos in one place
• Apple Health sync — steps and workouts count automatically

COACHING THAT ADAPTS (MAX)
• Daily calorie & macro targets that adjust to your real-world progress — not a static formula
• Weekly AI meal plans with recipes, tuned to your goal
• Weekly trend reports: adherence, streaks, and what to change

STAY ACCOUNTABLE
• Streaks that reward consistency (and remind you before you break one)
• Share meals and workouts with friends, react, and comment
• Private by default — you control what's shared

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.1 — 2026-09-20

kaél now measures which of its ads bring people to the app, so we can spend less on the ones that don't work.

iOS asks your permission once, after you set up your account. You can change your answer any time in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.

Your health, meal and body data is never shared for advertising.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-17

Story cards, redesigned.

Run, Cycle and Gym each have a new card with its own layout and photo, built from your Apple Health workouts.

Choose Today, Week or Month on any card. Today shows only today's workouts, with your recent history alongside.

Chart any metric you track: pace, heart rate, cadence, VO2 max, breathing and more. Tap a chart to switch metrics, or tap the session card to switch sports.

New text tools with more fonts, colours and outline text, plus undo and redo while you edit.

Share any session straight from the Activity tab.

Fixes: your health score loads reliably, and your daily steps now show on your card.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-08

Story cards, rebuilt. Ten themes — Run, Gym, Swim, Cycle, Sport, Cardio, Meal, and your week, month and today — each with its own look and its own figures pulled from Apple Health. Tap a chart to widen its period. Drag pieces around and they snap to the grid.

Activity on the Progress tab: one chart per sport, switchable between calories, duration, distance and heart rate, over a week to six months. Drag across it to read any single session.

Pro now starts with a free month.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-08-31

Launch offer: the first month is discounted for new subscribers. Your exact price, and what it renews at afterwards, are both shown before you confirm anything.

Also in this update:
- A longer free trial, so there is more time to try everything properly
- You can now redeem a promo code straight from the subscribe screen
- Subscriptions bought outside the app are picked up automatically
- Small fixes and polish

### 1.0.1 — 2026-08-24
