Calorie Fox is a calm food diary that does the counting for you. Answer a few quick questions and Fox, your friendly coach, builds a daily plan around your goal: how many calories to eat, how much water to drink, and when you can expect to reach your target weight. Then just log. Today shows the one number that matters, the calories you have left, with what you ate and burned right underneath. LOG FOOD YOUR WAY • Food library: find almost any food, pick a portion, done. • Photo: take a picture of your plate and get a calorie estimate. • Ask AI: type "two eggs and toast" and let the app work it out. • Number pad and quick-add chips for the things you already know. STAY ON TRACK • Water card: tap to log a glass. • Gentle meal and water reminders, skipped when you have already logged. • History by week and month, with a fat summary at the end of each month. • Activity logging, with the option to count your resting burn. Your log syncs to your account, so it's there on every device you sign in to. CALORIE FOX PRO Calorie Fox Pro unlocks the app. Choose yearly (with a 7-day free trial) or monthly. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or when the free trial ends. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Calorie Fox at none against Pedometer's 2. Calorie Fox also leads on ads (none vs shown). Pedometer's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
