Counting calories is miserable. Weighing rice. Searching a database for "sandwich". Confirming five screens. Nomzo skips all of it: take a photo, get an honest estimate with its range, get on with your day. It won't be exact to the calorie, and it doesn't need to be. Logging most days is the part that works.
No account to make. A few quick questions at the start work out a daily target, and after that the camera is already pointed at lunch.
Why an estimate is enough
Studies of food diaries keep finding the same dull thing: how often you log is what predicts whether it does anything for you, and how exactly you log mostly isn't. Paper diaries underreport badly and they helped anyway. The hard part was never the arithmetic, it's logging on a Tuesday when you're tired and late, so that's the part this is built around.
How it goes
You open the app and you're already in the camera. Tap the shutter. A card slides up with the dish, an estimate like ~780, and the range it probably sits in. It saves itself, and there's an undo button if it got the dish wrong.
That's two taps. Nothing to search or confirm, and no plate on a scale.
When it's wrong, tell it
One line does it. Type or hold the mic and say "the rice was half that", or "nah, it's a lamb kebab, huge one", and it has another go. Three chips do the quick version: smaller, about right, bigger.
You can skip the photo entirely and just say what you ate, which is handy for the sandwich you already finished.
Your plan
Tell it your goal, height, weight and how often you work out, and it works out a daily target and an estimated date you'd get there if you log most days. Your weight and the rest of those answers stay on your phone.
Every number comes with its range
Each estimate has a range under it and a hand-drawn wavy line that gets wavier the less sure it is. No decimals and no percentages. We'd rather be honest than exact-looking. Streaks count the days you logged something, never how you ate, and one missed day a week gets quietly patched.
Estimates can be off, sometimes well off. That's why you get a range and not one confident number. They aren't medical or dietary advice. If you need real precision, there are good apps for that and we'd rather you used one.
Nomzo Pro
Nomzo Pro is how the app works: unlimited photo estimates and a year of history, with typing and talking as much as you like. Pick yearly or monthly. Yearly starts with 7 days free if you haven't had a free trial before, and it works out about 66% cheaper than paying monthly. Monthly has no free week.
Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm the purchase, or when the free week ends if you started one. The trial converts to the paid yearly plan unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends. After that, the subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Cancel anytime in your App Store settings. Prices are shown in your own currency in the app before you agree to anything.

Your food log stays on your phone
Meals, photos, notes, numbers and your setup answers live in a database on your device. We don't keep a copy. Asking for an estimate sends the photo off to another company's model to be identified. We don't keep a copy, and nobody is building a library of your lunches. The privacy policy spells out exactly who sees what. Delete the app and your log goes with it.
