Hi y'all ( •‿•)ノ ! We are two friends (Jackson & Mike!) who went through the crazy journey of dieting and trying to change our physique. We were so fed up with the old calorie counting apps. They're painful to use. We had an amazing startup idea--what if you could use AI to automatically track calories based on a photo? After months of research and development, we are excited to bring you the most cutting edge technology that makes this possible. It's simple to use! 1. Use our calculator to figure out your specific body's calorie, protein, and fiber needs. 2. Take pictures of your food or type it in. 3. Get nutrition info and feedback from our built-in coach! 4. Lose weight and gain muscle. Both of us (Jackson and Mike) would be so appreciative of any feedback or questions! You can email us at jackson@alwayscoach.com and mike@alwayscoach.com PLEASE NOTE: This is not a medical app. We do not offer medical advice. All recommendations in the app are suggestions. Please consult with a medical professional before trying a new diet or calorie plan. TERMS: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Upspace at free with in-app purchases against AlwaysCoach's subscription. Upspace also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (129 vs 30). AlwaysCoach's advantage is review sentiment (89% vs 71%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Upspace sells 20 in-app purchases, starting at $6.49 per month and AlwaysCoach sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Upspace holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 129 and 30 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Upspace's written reviews are positive against 89% of AlwaysCoach's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Upspace ships an update fortnightly, AlwaysCoach every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
