Say what you ate. DietPal logs the calories. DietPal is an AI calorie tracker, nutrition and macro tracker, and food diary you can talk to. No searching a food database. No photographing your plate. Speak or type a meal, and DietPal names the foods and grams, then grounds the calories and macros in USDA FoodData Central — the U.S. Department of Agriculture's public nutrition database — or DietPal's own dish table. Only when neither has a match does it estimate, and every log shows you which source was used. WHY DIETPAL • Voice-first logging — "chicken caesar wrap and a latte" becomes a full log in seconds • Mixed plates are split: the main, each side and each drink are logged separately • USDA FoodData Central grounds every calorie and macro number • Manual entry is unlimited and free, forever • Recents re-log a past meal instantly, without spending an AI log • Your voice clip is deleted right after transcription — only the text and macros stay • A personalized daily calorie goal from a short quiz • A daily ring for calories, bars for protein, carbs, and fat • A weekly view to see how the days actually stacked up • Widget and Siri Shortcut support for logging a meal from your Home Screen • No ads, on any plan FREE, NO CARD REQUIRED • Unlimited manual food logging • 7 AI-assisted voice or text logs every month • Full access to your daily and weekly nutrition view DIETPAL PREMIUM • Unlimited AI-assisted voice and text logging • Monthly: $5.99/month • Yearly: $29.99/year, with a 7-day free trial Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
