Amazing

Less is more. This app is the perfect example of that. So useful - and free! Thanks!

minimal calorie and weight tracker

this app is so simple, but at times it's a bit too simple. the simplicity works for many people, and mostly for me as well, but its missing a few features as pointed out in other reviews. one feature that is pretty important is being able to see previous daily calories. i believe the data is deleted at the end of each day, and some people probably like that, but id like for there to be an option to choose whether you want to be able to keep and see your previous daily calories or to leave them to delete at the end of the day. and maybe even be able to set a time you want them to reset, maybe you are eating past midnight and you still are eating for the previous day. . . i would also like to be able to input my weight from days in the past. . .anyways, sometimes simple is great, but this just feels like it needs a bit more.

So Simple You Can’t Beat It!

It’s impossible to incorporate a complicated system into my routine, but this app serves its purpose so easily it feels weird not doing recording my weight in the morning!

The simplicity is what makes this app great!

I use it to lose weight, maintain weight, and gain weight. I just estimate the calories for everything I eat, and it gives me an easy way to make tracking a habit. If it were loaded with features it would likely not be as useful.

Perfectly minimalist, exactly what I need

I was just looking for something very simple for basic tracking- I use the labels and home cool so I have accuracy. This app is perfect because of its simplicity.
The ads aren’t intrusive but I paid for it to support the dev for making such a streamlined app.

It's exactly what I wanted and nothing I didn't

I just needed something to keep track of calories. That's it. The other apps I looked at wanted me to put in info for every single ingredient with confusing calorie options that just isn't doable when you cook at home all the time and eat a large variety of recipes you don't make identically every time. I can do that math myself much quicker on a calculator. If you also don't want all that extra complicated stuff and just need a simple number tracker this is for you!

love it, small changes would be appreciated

I love how simple this app is! The only changes I would ask for are: allowing users to put in their weight/ calories on previous days, and being able to mute the little ‘boop’ sound every time a button is clicked. Others may like it but I find it very annoying. Something else that could be added is an option to put in your height/ measurements and have it track your BMI/ body fat percentage over time as well. Otherwise this is a great app!

The perfect fit!

Lightweight is amazingly simple and exactly what I needed. It allows me to manage my caloric intake and weight without obsessing over the specifics.

Amazing and simple

The app skips time consuming nonsense and efficiently lets you track the calories you expend and your weight loss progress-everything is completed in seconds - I just would not have the time or patience for very involved fitness apps that ultimately add little more value -

Brutal simplicity and minimalism

Absolutely what I was looking for. I needed a fast running app just to input calories and track calories over time. It’s not rocket science. Everything else takes up too much time.

Simple app to do the fat math

The one thing every diet has in common is a calorie deficit. So I wanted an easy way to track that and that alone without all of the pseudoscience from ‘nutrition experts’. This app has the perfect ‘lack’ of features and doesn’t bog you down with scanning in barcodes or other crap. It’s just a graph and numbers. Finally!

Finally!!!!

Exactly what I’ve been searching for!! Thank you!!! So simple and easy to use!!!

Just needs a little more

Hi! Lovely idea. As someone who has tried every calorie counter in the App Store, I’m searching for something minimal. This app needs just a tiny bit more. I would like the ability to adjust the time stamp when I log in as well as writing down what I ate. It would be cool if it could recognize the words I type and notify me in the future, about me on patterns. For example the words are separated by comas to separate the ingredients. (“eggs, bread, butter” = category “eggs”, category “bread”, etc.)

Lightweight is the perfect name

Not everyone who wants to lose weight wants to become a health guru. Some people want to lose weight just by dieting, instead of being bothered to exercise. No need for all the recipes, and news, and suggestions, and searching for food is just annoying. Either look at the label or google it! I’m so glad I found this app. It makes it easy to see my progress and easy to set a calorie goal. So far I’ve stuck to it. I don’t even care about ads but I paid the $0.99 cuz I fully support the dev. Thanks so much Ryan!!!

So simple

Perfect. I just want to count calories and track my weight that doesn’t involve a pointless complicated app. This app is just so simple and perfect.

Simple, fast, uncluttered. Recommended.

I’ve used this every day for a long time now and I’m super happy with it. It’s especially good when you already kinda know how many calories different types of food are.

Perfect

Perfect

Just need to be able to see what I ate

Exactly what I needed but it'd be great to have an optional text field to enter what I ate for each calorie entry. That extra feature would bring me to 5 stars

A SIMPLE calorie counter, finally

I hate all the popular calorie counters that are so overwhelming complicated with all the extra functions that make them a pain to use. I know about what I eat, and I just want to enter the calories and be done. I hate having to look up the foods I ate as with the other counters. With this app, I can enter mu calories and be done!

Perfectly Simple

Just what I was looking for. A straightforward way to minus calories from a starting point. Just numbers, no notes or logging individual foods. Perfectly simple.
