HydroMeal is your new favorite user-friendly nutrition tracker. You can track many relevant nutritional quantities in the app, including water intake, protein, calories, fat (including saturated fat), sodium, and carbohydrates (including added sugar). The app is very simple and easy to use, allowing you to create your own food items (for example, your own protein shake rather than a generic protein shake that may not be accurate) or pick from a generic list of items. You can also create a recipe, where you can combine multiple foods already in your food list or the generic list to make a new food item. Adding water intake is simple, with you only having to provide the amount of water (in ounces) and optionally a nickname to remember that water intake by. The "History" tab, which you can access from the dashboard, contains all previous nutrition logs for each day, allowing you to easily keep track of your day-by-day progress. Finally, while there is a default set of nutrition targets upon loading the app, you can change these in the "Profile" section of the app.
