Protein Snap counts your protein – fast, no subscription. Set a goal, log, done. Calories, fat and carbs are there if you want them. LOG THE WAY YOU LIKE • Photo: snap your plate, AI estimates protein, calories and fat – components can be corrected • Describe: type or dictate "2 eggs, a slice of whole-grain bread, one skyr" – every item becomes an entry • Barcode: scan, done. If the database only knows the name (fresh fruit, veg), our own steps in • Label: photograph the nutrition table instead of typing • Quick picks: recent, frequent, your meals – one tap OVER 9,000 FOODS The German Federal Food Code (BLS 4.0) is built in: around 7,100 foods and dishes with official nutrition data, plus the Swiss database and branded products. Pick a portion, the app does the maths. RECIPES WITH PORTION MATHS Cooked a pot of chili, 1800 g total, ate 400 g? Enter the total weight, pick the grams when eating – protein, calories, fat and carbs are scaled. YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE Large progress ring, macro bars, water row and a ring per meal with its calorie budget. Tap a meal to see what's in it. Forgot a day? Log it later.
