How far do you need to walk to break even on a couple of pints? Neutral Pint answers that, and then it points you at a pub exactly that far away. Set how many pints you're planning. The app does the calorie maths, checks your location, and pulls up nearby pubs sorted by how close each one is to a perfectly neutral round trip. Tap one, and Apple Maps opens with walking directions. That's it. That's the whole app. WHY IT EXISTS Most drink-tracking apps want to make you feel bad. Most walking apps want to sell you a streak. Neutral Pint just wants you to enjoy a pint, take a nice walk, and arrive back roughly where you started — physically and caloric-ally. HOW IT WORKS • Pick a pint count from 1 to 10 • Your drink calories and minimum walk distance update live • Tap Find Pubs — we query Google Places for bars nearby • Results are sorted by how close each one gets you to neutral • A green Neutral badge marks the ones that clear the threshold • Tap a pub, get walking directions in Apple Maps TUNED TO YOU, ONCE Onboarding takes about thirty seconds. Pick your usual pint (lager, ale & bitter, IPA, stout, cider), your serving size (UK pint, US pint, half litre, or a 330 ml small), a body build preset, and a walking pace. Change any of it later in Settings. No numeric weight entry, no calorie diary, no reminders. WHAT IT ISN'T • Not a health app — the numbers are honest approximations, not medical advice • Not a tracker — nothing is saved, nothing is uploaded, nothing is shared • Not a social app — no feed, no friends, no leaderboards • Not a nag — no notifications, ever PRIVACY Your location is used once, when you tap Find Pubs, to search for nearby pubs. Nothing about you leaves your phone beyond that single search. No account. No login. No analytics profile. REQUIREMENTS iOS 17 or later. Works best with location services on. Cheers.
