## What is Tastelog?

You've photographed hundreds of meals. Could you name the restaurant behind ten? The dish? Who was at the table — or at the stove?

Tastelog is a private diary of the meals worth remembering, out and at home. It starts by finding the meals already in your camera roll, and roasting you for them.

GET ROASTED
Tap Scan my photos and Tastelog goes through the last two years of your camera roll, reading the photos on your phone. It finds the meals, asks a few quick questions while it looks, makes you guess before the verdict — then hands down the roast: a poster with your title and the evidence, one tap from your group chat. Keep the meals, and each one lands in your diary with its place already guessed, waiting for your yes.

IT KEEPS UP
Took a photo of dinner? Next time you open the app it asks where it was — naming the place when it's sure — and the meal is kept in a tap. Answer once and it never asks about that meal again. Or log one by hand: tap ＋, or any empty day on the calendar.

MORE THAN A RESTAURANT NAME
The place is the least of a memory. Note what you ordered, who shared the table, and what the night was for — a birthday, a farewell, a first date you didn't know was one. Add as much or as little as a meal deserves.

THE MEALS YOU MADE
A Tuesday soup can mean more than a tasting menu. Every home meal is kept as a recipe card: what you made, who cooked, who you fed, what you'd tweak next time, and whether you'd make it again. No ingredient lists, no nutrition, ever.

YOUR YEAR, ONE PAGE AT A TIME
The diary opens on a calendar, every month filled with your own photos. Search it the way you remember: "that quiet pasta place" or "dinner with Mei" both work. And On This Day brings back meals you'd forgotten you loved.

WHAT YOUR APPETITE ADDS UP TO
Your taste, set in type: a card composed from your own meals — the dishes you order, the places you go back to, the person who has cooked for you most. No scores, no personality quiz. Just the facts your diary already holds, ready to share.

TODAY'S TICKETS
Open Today for three tickets: sometimes a place from your diary you said you'd go back to, and dishes worth trying, each with somewhere nearby to eat it. Save one for later, or reshuffle. Tell it what's off the table, and it never deals it.

BETTER WITH FRIENDS
Tag the friend across the table — or the one who cooked — and the memory lands in their diary too, where they can like it, write on it, and keep it. A gift, not a post.

A KEEPSAKE, NOT A FEED
No followers. No star ratings to perform. No calorie counting, ever. Your notes stay yours. Every place you've ever logged sits on one map that remembers what guidebooks can't: where you were happy.

Your last thousand meals deserved better than a camera roll. Your next thousand start here.

Tastelog — the meals worth remembering.

### 5/5 — Solved our group "where to eat" argument

*2026-09-15*

I used to keep a mess of food photos and random notes in my phone that I’d never look at again. Taste Log made everything so much easier. Logging a memory takes seconds, and I love being able to tag friends I shared the meal with. Plus, getting recommendations based on everyone’s shared taste makes picking a group spot so much easier. Definitely keeping this on my home screen.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.0 — 2026-10-04

Tastelog is a private diary of the meals worth remembering, out and at home: your food photos become memories that keep the place, the dish and the company, and the diary learns your taste as it grows.

This is the biggest update yet.

Get roasted. Tap Scan my photos and Tastelog goes through the last two years of your camera roll, finds your meals, and roasts you for them: a poster with your title and the evidence, ready to share. Keep the meals and they land in your diary, each with its place guessed and waiting for your yes.

Your month, roasted. Log eight meals or more in a month, and when it ends, the next time you open the app your month gets its own roast.

It keeps up. Took a photo of dinner? Next time you open the app it asks where it was, and keeps the meal in a tap. Answer once and it never asks about that meal again.

Today, as tickets. Three picks every morning: sometimes a place from your diary you said you'd go back to, and dishes worth trying, each with somewhere nearby to eat it. Save one for later, or reshuffle.

Home meals become recipe cards: what you made, who you fed, what you'd tweak next time, and whether you'd make it again.

A new home for everything. The tab bar is now Diary, Today, ＋, Taste and You, and the ＋ sits right in it. Your profile, friends and settings live under You, and your map opens from Taste.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-09-21

Tastelog is a private food diary. You pick meal photos from your camera roll, or shoot one at the table, and each becomes a memory: the place, the date, what you ate, who was there, and whether you'd go back. Photos with location resolve to the restaurant on their own. 

Forgot where you ate? Tap "Don't remember the name? Help me find" on a new memory. Tell it where you were — a landmark, a neighbourhood, a city, in any language — and what you ate in your own words, and pick the place from a grid of photos. Open any candidate for a closer look: its photos next to yours, what people say about it, and the walk from where you were.

Also in this version:
• A first-open tour. On the first launch, Tastelog walks the four tabs on the real screens, filled with an example diary.
• UI improvements
• Make verdict optional when create memory

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-18

Tastelog is a private food diary. You pick meal photos from your camera roll, or shoot one at the table, and each becomes a memory: the place, the date, what you ate, who was there, and whether you'd go back. Photos with location resolve to the restaurant on their own. 

Forgot where you ate? Tap "Don't remember the name? Help me find" on a new memory. Tell it where you were — a landmark, a neighbourhood, a city, in any language — and what you ate in your own words, and pick the place from a grid of photos. Open any candidate for a closer look: its photos next to yours, what people say about it, and the walk from where you were.

Also in this version:
• A meal with no known place can be saved as "somewhere" and placed later.
• Shots taken in the app now ask for your location at the shutter, so the place is a tap away.
• Photos open full screen and pinch to zoom.
• The place step leads with search.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-15

Update calendar view. Every day with a photo on it writes its date above the print, so you can still find the 14th when the whole month is full. A day with more than one meal fans them out, like paper on a single pin. And today keeps its own square until you fill it.
 
An empty square is no longer just a gap. Tap one and you are logging a meal for that day — this morning, or last Tuesday.

Sitting in a restaurant? Open the app and it offers to start the memory, with the place already filled in. It stays quiet when it is not sure: a diary that guesses wrong is worse than one that waits.

And a coffee run, a boba stop or a trip to the bakery now wears its own small mark, the way a meal at home does.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-13
