## What is Nutrician?

Nutrician is a nutrition coach that tells you where its numbers come from. Describe a meal in chat or photograph it, and you get calories and macros back in seconds. No database to search, no forms to fill in.

Building muscle, eating better, or finding food hard right now — the job is the same. Know what you actually ate, and whether you got enough protein.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

Every number tells you where it came from.

Most food apps show a calorie count and leave you to assume it is right. Nutrician shows the source of each figure: read off a label, matched to a database, taken from a restaurant's published data, corrected by you, or estimated from a photo. An estimate is labelled an estimate and carries a range. Where the app cannot work something out it says so, rather than choosing a number that looks plausible.

The app is also structurally unable to invent a number. The AI writes the sentence; the figures are filled in afterward from what you logged, and anything it states on its own is stripped before it reaches you.

YOUR DAY, AT A GLANCE

Home is a dashboard, not a chat log: protein, carbs and fat as dials you can read in a second, calories and water beside them, today's meals underneath. The conversation is one tap away.

A new account starts from published daily values rather than empty rings, and hands over to your own the moment you set them.

BUILT AROUND YOUR GOAL

Tell it what you are working toward and the framing follows: building muscle means protein is what you build with, holding steady means protein is what you hold on to. 

-Protein is a floor to reach, not a ceiling to stay under
-Calories are a floor too, and the app never warns you for eating too little
-No shame copy, no streak guilt, nothing sold back to you for a missed day

IF YOU ARE ON A GLP-1

Appetite is suppressed, portions are small, and protein matters most. Nutrician treats that as normal, not as a failure.

-A low-calorie day on the medication is not a failure, and the app never says it is
-Ate half of it? Say so and the numbers rescale, or photograph the plate and it works out what is left
-Shot day, side effects and appetite changes all go in the same chat box 
-Symptoms that need a clinician point you at your prescriber, not a food tip

Nutrician promotes no medication, supplies nothing, and takes no money from any prescriber or pharmacy.

APPLE HEALTH                                                                                                    

Read your weight in from Health so your trend stays current. Write your meals out so your other health apps can see them. 

WHAT ELSE IS IN IT

-Photo logging where your own words outrank what the camera guessed
-A suggestion for what to eat next, drawn from meals you have actually logged
-Correct any meal's figures directly, and your numbers become the record
-Restaurant menus matched to where you are, before you order
-Weight, water, measurements and symptoms, from the same chat box
-A plain summary you can hand to your prescriber or dietitian 
-Streaks with no dark patterns: rest days are free
-CSV export and saved meals

HONEST ABOUT THE LIMITS

Portion size is the hardest part of tracking food and no app has solved it, including this one. A database entry is an average, not a measurement of your plate. Even a nutrition label is a range: federal rules let the protein in a food run as low as 80 percent of the declared value and the calories as high as 120 percent.

We do not claim to be the most accurate app. Everybody claims that and you cannot check it. We claim something you can: every figure shows its origin, and our guesses look different from our facts.

FREE TO TRY

A seven-day trial, then a free tier you can stay on as long as you like. Precision is $9.99 a month or $99 a year.

Nutrician is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition. Protein targets, medication questions and symptoms belong with your prescriber.

### 5/5 — Awesome for understanding and tracking daily intake

*2026-09-20*

This app does a great job at not only understanding your daily habits but also tracking food made in the house & eating out. 

I was able to find the restaurant I ate at in the app and was able to immediately fill in accurate macros with the specific meal I ate.

### 5/5 — health and wellness must

*2026-09-20*

I was looking for an app that’s convenient and easy to use to track my food intake. It’s pretty cool predicting the calories from the pictures I take. It even brings the restaurant menu item when I eat out. You just have a dietician agent helping you make informed decisions. This is revolutionary!

### 5/5 — Great for sticking with my diet

*2026-09-15*

This app is super user friendly and has made it so simple for me to track my macros, nutrients, and calories! It’s as easy as taking a picture of my food and the app picking up on what I ate. Even if it picks up something incorrectly from the picture, you can go in and adjust and say what it is. Got me back on track with my food tracking definitely recommend:)

### Does Nutrician offer support for users on GLP-1 medication?

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.2 — 2026-10-01

Rate Nutrician without leaving it. One tap and the stars appear where you are, instead of dropping you into the App Store to find your way back. 

A DASHBOARD INSTEAD OF A CHAT LOG
Protein, carbs and fat are now dials you can read in a second, with calories and water beside them and today's meals underneath. The conversation folds away behind a single tap and comes back the same way.

-Each dial fills against your own number, and shows what it is measuring against right beneath it
-Past your target, the fill keeps going round rather than stopping at full, so you can see how far past you are
-Calories sit beside the water you have drunk, counted in glasses rather than millilitres
-Add or remove a glass without opening anything

TARGETS THAT WORK ON DAY ONE
A new account starts from published daily values rather than four empty rings, and hands over to your own numbers the moment you set one. Set a protein target straight from the dial, without going looking for a settings screen.

FRAMING THAT FOLLOWS YOUR GOAL
Onboarding now asks what you are working toward before anything else, and the app talks to you accordingly. Building muscle means protein is what you build with. Holding steady means protein is what you hold on to. The words change; the arithmetic does not.

WHAT TO EAT NEXT
A suggestion drawn from meals you have actually logged, alongside something you have not tried yet. Written by the coach, but it cannot name a food the app has not seen you eat, and it cannot state a number.

FIX A MEAL'S NUMBERS YOURSELF
Correct the figures on any logged meal, at any time, in a proper dialog rather than by typing into the chat. Your numbers become the record, and the source updates to say they came from you.

THREE PANELS, ONE SUBJECT EACH
-Macros: a history chart, weekly averages for every macro, the day's split, key nutrients, and a scrubber for any past day with that day's meals
-Calories: calorie history, today's pace, and where every figure came from
-Today: weight, measurements, photos, shot cycle and wins

HOW YOU ARE FEELING
Symptoms, energy and movement all moved onto the dashboard. Strength, walking, running and swimming each get a button, and rest days are free.

SMALLER THINGS
-Older meals read as a line of record rather than a full card, so a long day stays readable
-The conversation sits on its own paper, so it is clearly a different surface from your day
-Brighter, more legible colours throughout, and larger figures on the dials
-Turning calories off now hides them everywhere, including the history chart

Thank you for using it. If it has been useful, the rating prompt is the one ask we make.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-09-14

Apple Health, actually working.

In 1.2 the Health connection could close the app instead of asking permission. That is fixed. Open You, then Apple Health, and tap Connect to read your weight in and write your meals out: calories, protein, carbs and fat, with the name of the meal and where each number came from.

The summary you can hand to a prescriber now also shows what its figures are made of, and how much of the protein and calories came from a label, a database match or your own correction rather than the app's estimate.

### 1.2 — 2026-09-11

Apple Health
  
Nutrician now reads your weight from Apple Health and writes the calories, protein, carbs and fat of meals you log back out to it.
It's off until you turn it on in You → Apple Health, and you can stop it any time.
  
Meals reach Health about an hour after you log them — on purpose, so that "I actually ate half" lands first and Health shows the final number instead of one that changes later.
  
Also in this version
  
  • Your wins now group together, so a win you've had four times shows as one line with its count instead of four identical rows.
  • The coach names where a number came from when it's an estimate, and stays quiet when it isn't — so the times it speaks up actually mean something.
  • Clearer meal cards: longer meal names are fully readable, and the calorie figure stays legible at larger text sizes.
  • Fixes to the food photo view and the nutrition panel.

### 1.1 — 2026-09-08

• Precision is now available in the app: unlock unlimited photo & chat logging, saved meals you can re-log in one tap, and CSV export of your diary.
  • New: Ketone-Friendliness: see how each meal's fat-to-carb balance leans, with every number showing its source.
  • Refinements and fixes throughout.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-28

No release notes.
