FaceGauge - See What's Actually Changed Real results deserve more than a mirror. Your face tells a story. FaceGauge helps you read it clearly, with calm, objective tracking that celebrates real progress and keeps you grounded in what matters most: looking defined, balanced, and precisely like yourself, only better. Subscription Required FaceGauge offers a 7-day free trial for annual subscriptions. After the trial period, continued access requires a FaceGauge subscription. All facial analysis features are available during the trial and as part of the subscription. Four Measures That Matter Using your phone's camera, FaceGauge assesses four key markers of facial balance: Symmetry - The harmony of your features across key reference points Proportion - How your dimensions align with recognised aesthetic balance Expression Mobility - The freedom and fluidity of your expressions Skin Texture - The clarity, evenness and quality of your skin Every scan builds your personal results snapshot, a visual, longitudinal record you can revisit across every appointment and procedure. Progress You Can Actually See Procedure to procedure, change can be hard to see, and even harder to measure. FaceGauge reveals the real differences between each treatment, giving you clear evidence that your investment is working. And when the scores stay flat? That's valuable information too, a sound, objective signal that you may already be exactly where you need to be. Precision Tracking for Considered Results Our in-app wellbeing features are designed to support considered decision-making, so you have an objective reference point at every stage. Because the best aesthetic work is the kind nobody can quite put their finger on. FaceGauge is a personal tracking and wellness tool intended for general guidance only. It is not a medical device, does not analyse or diagnose any medical condition, and does not provide medical advice. Individual results will vary. Always consult a qualified medical or aesthetic practitioner before undertaking any cosmetic procedure.

Lose weight and win A$1,000 every month, just for hitting your daily calorie and step goals. CalCut is the fat loss app built on simplicity. No manual searching. No guilt. No getting overwhelmed. Just two daily rules, and when you hit both, your screen turns green. That's a Perfect Day. THE TWO RULES 1. Stay in a calorie deficit — we calculate your personal target. 2. Hit your daily step goal — set to fit your life. Hit both, day after day, and the weight comes off. That's the whole method. THE CALCUT MONTHLY A$1,000 every month to whoever's the most consistent. Most points for hitting your two daily rules wins. Each day you earn 2 points for your steps, 2 for your calories, 8 for a Perfect Day and double points on weekends. Points are for hitting the rules, never for weight lost. No draw and no luck: the most points wins, and an exact tie splits the prize. Open to subscribers aged 18+ in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Canada (except Quebec) and the US (some states excluded). Opt in inside the app. Full terms: calcut.com.au/monthly-terms. Apple is not a sponsor of the Monthly and is not involved in it. A SCOREBOARD, NOT A JOURNAL Your day lives on one screen. Miss your goals and it's orange. Hit them and it flips to green. That simple colour switch is the most satisfying part of your day — and the reason people stay consistent with CalCut when every other app ended up deleted. BUILT FOR REAL PEOPLE CalCut is for anyone who's tried the complicated apps and quit. If you've felt overwhelmed by nutrition trackers that demand you weigh every grain of rice, this is the opposite. Log a meal in seconds by describing it, scanning a barcode, or snapping a photo. WHAT YOU GET - A personalised calorie deficit target (TDEE-based) - A daily step goal that syncs automatically - Fast food logging: describe, scan, or photograph - Progress photos and weight trends that show the change - A clean daily scoreboard that keeps you accountable PLUS EXTRAS (Sent via email within 24 hours) - Personalised Meal Plan - Fat Loss Cookbook - Takeaway Cheat Sheet - Budget Grocery Guide Two simple rules a day.
