## What is Macroline?

Macroline is a macro and calorie tracker built for the AI era. Just say what you ate, scan a barcode, or search millions of foods that always tell you where the data came from. Now with a clean, redesigned home that puts your whole day at a glance.

LOG WITHOUT THE BURDEN
- Describe: say "I had a chicken caesar wrap and a coke" and Macroline parses it into structured entries. No ten-tap forms.
- Scan: point your camera at any barcode. We resolve against USDA, OpenFoodFacts, and our crowd-verified database.
- Search: type-ahead with brand, alias, and fuzzy matching.
- Recents: you do not eat a thousand foods, you eat the same ones on repeat. Re-log your usuals in a couple taps, no searching.

PROVENANCE YOU CAN TRUST
Every food shows its source: USDA authoritative, brand labels, OpenFoodFacts community, or a clearly marked AI estimate. Tap the badge to see exactly where the numbers came from. We do not fudge the data, an AI estimate is always labeled as one, and you can always adjust it.

HIT YOUR PROTEIN
Set a protein target with the built-in calculator and track toward it every day. (It is a starting point, adjust it with your dietitian.)

GLP-1 AND WEIGHT-LOSS MEDICATION TRACKING
Track semaglutide, tirzepatide, naltrexone-bupropion, phentermine, and more. See your dose-in-system over time, log side effects, and watch how it lines up with your week. (Macroline does not provide medical advice.)

WEIGHT TRENDS, NOT DAILY NOISE
Sync your weight with Apple Health and watch the trend over weeks instead of obsessing over the daily number.

CONNECT YOUR AI ASSISTANT
Macroline ships with an MCP server, so you can connect Claude or other AI tools to log meals, query your diary, and ask "how much protein have I had this week?" straight from your assistant.

USE IT ANYWHERE
Macroline also runs in your browser at my.macroline.app, so your diary follows you across your devices.

NO DIET SHAME
No streak pressure. No fasting nudges. No "you ate too much" messages. Tracking is for awareness. What you do with it is up to you.

PRO FEATURES
- Unlimited Describe (AI meal parsing)
- Cross-source food research
- MCP integration for AI assistants
- Priority support
Free tier includes search, scan, manual logging, recents, weight tracking, medication tracking, Apple Health sync, the protein calculator, and 3 Describe parses per day.

### 5/5 — Finally!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2026-05-22*

This app is awesome. I’m on a GLP-1… I work out, track my food, watch my shot, and definitely watch my macros. My husband isn’t on a GLP-1, but he is a marathon runner who works out and trains hard. He watches his macros too. It’s really cool to have an app like this that covers it all and isn’t just specifically for the GLP-1 users or those who are athletic. I feel like this is great for anyone trying to keep an eye on what they do throughout the day. Highly recommend!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.8.2 — 2026-08-17

Your data starts coaching you back — and mornings got a lot faster.

• Coach — see the calorie burn rate your own logs prove, and get a weekly target tuned to how your weight actually moves. No formulas pretending to know your metabolism. (Pro, 7-day free trial)
• Your week — a Sunday-to-Sunday recap: days logged, weight change, protein consistency, your discovery of the week. Share it if you're proud of it.
• Same as yesterday? — one tap replays yesterday's meals into today. And the Diary now shows Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and Snacks on every day, even before you've logged anything, so "Copy from yesterday" is right there for each meal.
• Shot-day awareness — on GLP-1 dose days, Today gently reframes: appetite often runs lighter, protein comes first.
• "Your week is ready" notifications, and smarter reminders that only ask once.
• Easier to read — bigger food names in the Diary, the full name in the detail sheet, and search results that show serving size and protein at a glance so you're never comparing calories across different portions.
• Calmer board — morning notices are light toasts now instead of cards, nothing hides behind the add bar, and a fresh week reads "log once to start" instead of 0/7.
• Food database — hundreds of new restaurant items with honest source labels, cleaner USDA names, and a round of accuracy fixes.
• Under the hood — the Diary loads once instead of refreshing in a loop: faster, easier on your battery, and today's exercise shows up reliably.

• Say "yes" to medication tracking during setup and you'll land straight in Add Medication
• Clearer per-serving calories when logging with AI Describe

A faster, rebuilt Macroline.

• A brand-new home screen: calories, macros, streak, weight, and water at a glance.

• Log faster: quick add right from Today or Diary, plus favorites and saved meals.

• Log in real units (grams, oz, cups), not just servings.

• Every food shows its real source (USDA, Open Food Facts, or AI estimate).

• Medication tracking you can turn on for GLP-1 support.

• Opens instantly with no flicker, and a much larger food database.
