Stop guessing which meal actually hits your protein goal — then keep score. Protein Hunter searches real restaurants around you and ranks what's on the menu by protein, with full macros against YOUR daily targets rather than a generic 2,000 kcal chart. Then it lets you log what you actually ate YOUR DAILY LOG Get macros from three places: a restaurant dish, a recipe you cooked, or a barcode you scanned. Add any of them to your day with the portion you really had — half a plate, one, or two. Save the meals you eat often and re-log them in a single tap. See the day add up: a protein ring against your target, plus carbs, fat and calories. Log your workouts too and the day balances itself — what you ate minus what you burned. Watch the month, quarter and year fill in, with your best day, longest streak and how often you hit target. Lock onto your macros — and get rewarded for hitting them. Protein Hunter finds high-protein meals wherever you are: real dishes at real restaurants near you, recipes from what is already in your kitchen, or any packet you can scan. Then it turns hitting your protein target into something you can watch yourself get better at. EARN XP FOR EVERY GRAM Every gram of protein you log is a point. Log a 40g meal, earn 40 XP. The number sits on the button before you tap it, so there is never a question about what an action is worth. LEVEL UP AND EARN YOUR RANK 500 XP a level, flat — one strong day is always about a third of a level, whether it is your first week or your fiftieth. Climb from Scout to Tracker to Stalker to Apex. DAILY QUEST One meal with 30g+ of protein, +50 XP. A single decision rather than a chore list, and the card turns green the moment you clear it. STREAKS THAT FORGIVE ONE BAD DAY Miss a day and your streak survives — a shield absorbs one miss a week, automatically. No button, no reminder, no punishment. An app that resets you to zero over one missed dinner is an app you stop opening. THREE WAYS IN, ALL ON ONE SCREEN • Scan or type — barcode a packet or type what you ate. Free, instant, +25 XP • Meals out — AI finds specific dishes at specific restaurants in your area • Recipes — cook something from what you already have SEE EVERY DAY, WEEK, MONTH AND YEAR Today leads. Step back to any day you have logged to fix what you forgot, add the workout you did, or repeat a good day into today with one tap. Week shows seven bars against your target, Month a calendar you can tap into, Year twelve months at a glance. LOG YOUR WORKOUTS TOO +50 XP for logging an activity, and your net calories update. It never counts against your daily meal allowance. TARGETS THAT ARE ACTUALLY YOURS Work out your daily protein, carbs, fat and calories from your height, age, activity level and goal — the Mifflin-St Jeor equation clinicians use, not a rule of thumb. We show you your BMR and TDEE alongside the result, so no number is a black box, and every field stays editable. Works in kg or lb, cm or feet and inches. Or skip all of it and type your own numbers — the calculator suggests, you decide. BUILT TO BE HONEST • AI results are clearly labelled — verify hours before you travel • Macros grounded against USDA FoodData Central; estimates say so • Barcode data from Open Food Facts • Recipe instructions are never copied — cards link to the original source • Encouraging by design. No red, no shaming, no “you failed today” Save favourites, filter them, re-hunt similar meals, and set personal targets for protein, carbs, fat and calories. Dubai-first for restaurant areas and delivery links — works anywhere.
