MacroFlex was built on one core idea – a calorie tracking app that respects your time AND your wallet. No bloated paywalls, no locking the basics behind a subscription, no surprise fees. Just a clean and fast tracker that makes tracking your physical health easy and affordable. Your health & fitness goals are important to us, so your everyday tracking and health management shouldn’t be a burden. With the majority of the health apps on the market only focusing on price OR quality, there just isn’t an easy way to focus on your health that’s easy AND affordable. We’re here to change that. Here’s everything MacroFlex has to offer — FREE: everything you need to track, every day — • USDA food database — Search a huge library of real foods backed by USDA FoodData Central and log them in seconds, with accurate calories and macros. • Custom items — Add your own foods with your own nutrition info. Perfect for homemade dishes, local brands, or anything a database doesn't have. • Custom meals — Build a meal from multiple items once, save it, then log the whole thing with a single tap. Your go-to breakfast is one click away. • Custom Images – Take a picture to add to your Custom Items & Meals to add a visual identifier and extra customization. • History & graphs — Browse your full logging history day by day, and watch your trends across weeks and months with clean, easy-to-read charts. Spot patterns, stay consistent, and actually see your progress. • Flexible goals — Change your calorie and macro targets anytime, in seconds. Your goals should fit your life, not the other way around. • Track what matters to you — Follow the standard macros (protein, carbs, fat) or go beyond the defaults and zero in on the exact numbers you care about. Want to watch protein closely and let the rest ride? Done. MacroFlex adapts to your priorities instead of forcing one rigid template on everyone. • Track anywhere — Log your food and view your history even when you're offline. Everything syncs automatically the moment you're back online, so a weak signal never breaks your streak. – PRO – For just 2.99/mo or 29.99/yr (around 30% of the average competitor price), you get: • Barcode scanning — Point your camera at any packaged food's barcode and instantly pull up its nutrition. No searching, no typing. • Recipe URL Scanning – Any recipe you find online, you can paste the URL into our recipe scanner and get the macro calculations instantly! — PREMIUM — For only 3.99/mo or 39.99/yr, you get: • EVERYTHING that the Pro Plan offers • Nutrition label scanning — Snap a photo of any nutrition label and MacroFlex reads it for you, filling in the calories and macros automatically. • Recipe scanning — Take a picture of any recipe and turn it into a saved custom meal in seconds. You can make custom meals in seconds, no manual entry required. • Voice Add — Just say what you want, and we’ll add it for you! Pro and Premium are about one thing: saving you extra time. Everything you truly need to track is already free and easy with the right preparation — the subscriptions just make it easy without having to plan. Try it for free, and if it's not for you, the full free app is always there. Whether you're counting calories to lose weight, hitting protein goals to build muscle, or simply trying to eat a little more mindfully, MacroFlex gives you the perfect balance of simplicity and power — without the premium price tag. Your goals, your macros, your pace. Download MacroFlex and start tracking smarter today. Terms of Use (EULA): https://terlee.github.io/macro-fit-legal/terms.html
