Make mindful eating easier with one quick healthiness check-in. Add tags or a note only when they help, then see your patterns and streaks emerge over time. No calories, macros, food database, account, or ads. A food diary should build awareness, not become homework. Moderation asks one simple question: was this meal healthy or unhealthy for you? Over time, those quick check-ins become trends you can understand and habits you can shape. No weighing every ingredient. No searching through endless food results. You decide how a meal felt, add only the context that is useful, and keep moving. LOG MEALS IN SECONDS • Log breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, or your own custom meals with one tap. • Mark each meal healthy or unhealthy based on your goals, not somebody else's formula. • Use reminders when they help, with extra nudges available for more accountability. • Work fully offline, so a weak connection never interrupts your diary. UNDERSTAND HOW YOU EAT OVER TIME • Review meals in a clear daily timeline and calendar. • See daily, weekly, and monthly healthiness patterns at a glance. • Build healthy-day streaks and get gentle encouragement when you are nearly back on track. • Explore tag insights to notice which situations, ingredients, places, or routines help or get in your way. • Follow weight trends with Apple Health, without turning every meal into a calorie calculation. ADD CONTEXT ONLY WHEN IT HELPS • Add custom tags for the details that matter to you, such as mood, location, ingredients, or how you felt. • Add a note while logging a meal, then read or edit it directly from the timeline. • Create custom meal types that fit your actual day instead of forcing a fixed meal plan. FIT AWARENESS INTO YOUR DAY • Log meals with Siri, Shortcuts, widgets, or the Action Button when opening the app would slow you down. • Ask Siri to show today's logged meals, or use Shortcuts to retrieve meals for a date range and filter them by healthiness. • Put healthiness, streak, and insight widgets on your Home Screen or Lock Screen. • Toggle meal notifications from Control Centre and let reminders adjust when your time zone changes. YOUR FOOD HISTORY STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE Your food history and meal notes stay on your device. Moderation requires no account, sign-up, or social profile, and it contains no ads.
