Menu Calorie Scanner
Read full descriptionHide full description
Point your camera at any restaurant menu and see the calories before you order โ no typing, no guessing, no hunting through a food database dish by dish. Menu Scan reads the whole menu at once. It recognizes every dish on the page, then estimates calories, protein, carbs, and fat for each one and scores how healthy it is from 0 to 10. Instead of ordering blind and regretting it later, you get the full nutrition picture of the table in seconds โ and it all runs on your device, so it works even with no signal in a crowded restaurant. WHAT YOU GET - Point-and-scan a printed menu and read every dish's nutrition at a glance - Calories plus protein, carbs, and fat estimated for each dish - A 0-to-10 health score so the smartest choice jumps out - Dietary flags for vegan, vegetarian, keto, paleo, gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and halal - Compare two dishes side by side before you commit - A saved history of past scans plus favorites you can pull up any time PERFECT FOR - Anyone counting calories or macros who eats out and hates guessing - Keto, vegan, and gluten-free diners scanning menus for safe picks - Gym-goers protecting a protein target at restaurants - Travelers reading unfamiliar menus in a hurry WHY NOT JUST LOOK IT UP? Because typing every dish into a food-tracking app while your table waits is slow, and half the restaurant items aren't in the database anyway. Menu Scan reads the actual menu in front of you and gives you the numbers instantly โ one scan, whole page. Values are smart estimates for general guidance, not exact medical figures. PRIVACY Scanning and text recognition happen entirely on your device. Your menus and scans stay on your phone โ there is no account and nothing is uploaded to a server. FULL ACCESS Menu Scan is free to try with a daily scan limit. Unlock unlimited scans, the full insights dashboard, the weekly meal planner, unlimited saved history, and advanced dietary filters with Menu Scan Pro: - Weekly plan - Yearly plan - Lifetime (one-time purchase) Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled; manage or cancel any time in your App Store account settings. Scan your next menu before you order and eat with the numbers in front of you.

Supplement Stack
Read full descriptionHide full description
This is not a pill reminder. It is a ledger for the shelf: you type in what each supplement label says, and it adds the same ingredient up across every product you take. Six bottles. Three of them contain B6. Nobody tells you what that adds up to. WHAT IT DOES โข Type in a Supplement Facts panel once. The totals build themselves. โข Every ingredient shows how many of your products list it โ that number is the headline, not a percentage. โข Different names for the same thing merge automatically: Vitamin B6, Pyridoxine HCl and P-5-P all land on one line. โข Tap any line to see the breakdown: which bottle contributed how much. TWO THINGS THAT FALL OUT OF THE SAME DATA โข Cost: what each bottle works out to per day, and what the whole shelf costs a month. โข Run-out: how many servings are left and the date the bottle empties. BUILT FOR HOW LABELS ACTUALLY READ โข 150 ingredients with their common label spellings built in โ including the mineral forms (magnesium glycinate, zinc picolinate, ferrous sulfate) that all report the same elemental amount. โข Anything not in the list is still accepted and still totalled. There is no "not found" screen. โข mg, mcg and g convert exactly. IU converts only where one factor is unambiguous โ for vitamin E and vitamin A the factor depends on the form, so the app keeps IU on its own line instead of inventing a number. โข Unlimited history, kept on the device with no time limit, and CSV export. WHAT IT DELIBERATELY DOES NOT DO It does not scan barcodes. It does not rate, rank or sell any product. It does not check interactions. It does not recommend a dose or an amount. It does not compare your totals to any limit. Percentages are arithmetic against the Daily Values the FDA publishes for supplement labels (21 CFR 101.9) โ the same reference printed on your bottle โ and nothing more is read into them. There is no account, no sign-up and no server. Everything is computed on your phone, which is also why it works with no signal at all. A "How we calculate" screen is open to everyone, free, with every formula written out. SUPP STACK PRO Pro is required to add products and record days. Reading, the "How we calculate" screen and CSV export stay free. โข A recurring subscription, with the first period at a reduced price โข Or a one-time purchase that never renews Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings at any time.

Verdict
Menu Calorie Scanner and Supplement Stack are too close to call on the numbers: across 6 compared parameters โ price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases among them โ neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
