A simple calorie tracking app that does one thing only: tracks calories, and does so privately. Have you found yourself wanting an app to track your calories, only to be hit by a swarm of application solutions that require logins or monthly subscriptions? Have you ever found yourself saying "Oh for crying out loud I just want to enter my calories I don't need to put in all this macro information or navigate through a data or notify my friends on social media that I just consumed a home made hamburger, just let me enter my calories!"? If so, then OnlyCals is for you. Future updates will include data tracking, viewing trends, past meals, and more.
