Great app, does what it says it does
I was looking for something free of a lot of the negatives that plague the App Store these days - online accounts and tracking, interfaces that feel like a website, etc. - and eventually had to search in a browser rather than in the App Store to find this. It’s really easy to take my phone out, scan a barcode, and forget about it until I want to look at the day’s report. The biggest issue I encounter is out-of-date nutrition info (some nutrient will be off by 5% or so) on packaged foods, but it gives an easy and well-thought-out way to override this. It feels like search used to be bad but has improved lately.

Thank you so much! Barcode data comes from Open Food Facts, a community database, so some labels lag behind. I'm glad the override makes that easy. Search has had a lot of work lately, and more is coming.
Excellent Calorie Tracker — Simple, Clean, and Effective
Tare is one of the best calorie tracking apps I’ve used. The interface is clean, intuitive, and straightforward, making it easy to keep track of daily calorie intake without unnecessary complexity.
One feature I particularly appreciate is the ability to log exercises and have the calories burned automatically deducted from the daily calorie budget. This makes the daily calorie balance much more useful, especially for people who exercise regularly and want their activity reflected in their available calorie target.
Food logging is quick and easy, and the app provides exactly the information needed to stay on track without feeling cluttered or overwhelming.
Overall, Tare strikes an excellent balance between simplicity and functionality. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an efficient and well-designed calorie tracker.

Thank you! That means a lot. Glad the exercise section and the logging work the way you wanted. Keep the requests coming, they are what shape each version.
Fantastic food tracking app!
This app is a steal of a deal! No ads, no subscription. Just a small one time purchase. There’s so much to love about this app compared to other options out there. It does most everything most people would need in an app like this, is well designed and has nice customization options.
Add to that, the developer is really responsive and listens to users, quickly getting new fixes and features out.
Love the app so far and have no doubt it will only keep getting better!

Thank you, that means a lot. Your notes shaped 1.21.0, and Tare will stay no ads, no subscription, one purchase. Keep the feedback coming.
Great one time purchase app
Been using it for like 3 months now. Lots of features for a one time purchase, no ads!!!!. It helps to loose weight if you have discipline. Adaptive TDEE really works, after a few weeks it stops using some generic formula and actually figures out your calorie burn based on your own weigh-ins and provides summary weekly with changes macros. Also it is way less buggy compare to earlier versions, they’ve clearly been fixing stuff. There is no AI that estimates calories and macros by picture (estimates never worked for me) so if you need this feature this app is not for you.

Thank you for your feedback! Glad it is working for you.
wish i could get my money back
there’s a bug not showing micronutrient names, the database has the same thing multiple times with different calorie counts so you dont know which is accurate, i cant put fractions like 1/3 cup, decimals only, recipe building and logging is too time consuming
Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback. A new version of the app has been released that allows to use fractions and fixes light mode view. To request a refund, contact Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com.
