Every GLP-1 app on the App Store tracks your Ozempic shot. Gus tracks your food. Your body already makes GLP-1, the hormone that tells your brain you are full. Certain foods trigger it: protein, fermented foods, fiber, bitter greens, healthy fats, cruciferous vegetables, and herbs and spices. Gus helps you hit all 7 every day. No prescription needed. **Log meals by category, not calories** Choose what you ate, check off the GLP-1 category, and watch your coverage ring fill up. Gus the mascot lives on your Today screen and reacts as you build momentum. Check in twice a day to rate your hunger, energy, and mood. **See your patterns** Your on-device insights engine spots the connections you miss: which foods keep you full longer, where you have gaps, and what to focus on next week. Everything runs on your device. No account, no server, no data selling. **Everything you need to start:** - Coverage ring showing your 7-category progress at a glance - 951 curated GLP-1 recipes with one-tap logging - Weekly meal plan builder with an auto-generated grocery list - 7-Day Kickstart program that introduces one new GLP-1 category per day - On-device insights: weekly summary, 8 rule-based nudges, 7-day heatmap, and energy vs mood trend chart - Apple Watch companion so you can log meals and check in from your wrist - Foods by Category: browse every GLP-1 food with serving cues and the science behind each one - 20 linked research papers, organized by topic - HealthKit integration for protein, fiber, fat, and iOS 18 State of Mind - iCloud sync across your devices - Data export to share with a nutritionist, with meal photos attached **Your privacy is built in** All analysis runs on your device.
