Bite is a free AI calorie tracker that makes logging meals effortless. Snap a photo, say what you ate, or type a quick line — AI identifies the foods and portions, and your calories and macros come from a verified nutrition database, not AI guesses. LOG MEALS IN SECONDS No barcode scanning, no database scrolling. Three ways to capture any meal: - Photo: point your camera at the plate — AI finds the foods and estimates portions - Voice: a hands-free voice food log — say "two scrambled eggs and sourdough toast" and it's captured (speech is transcribed on your device) - Text: type a quick description and you're done REAL NUMBERS, NOT GUESSES Bite is a photo calorie counter that doesn't make up nutrition facts. AI only identifies foods and portions — the calories, protein, carbs, and fat come from a verified nutrition database. Every line item shows its source and a confidence level, and when something is ambiguous, Bite asks one smart clarifying question ("Was the pizza thin crust or regular?") instead of guessing. EDIT WITH HUMAN PORTIONS Adjust portions the way you think about food — "½ pizza", "2 eggs", "1 cup" — not in grams math. Macros rescale automatically as you step portions up or down. YOUR AI NUTRITION COACH Ask anything: "What should I make for dinner?" or "Chocolate or a boiled egg?" The coach knows what you've eaten today and what your targets are, so every answer is grounded in your actual remaining calories and macros — not generic advice. TRACK YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE A calorie ring and three macro rings show exactly where you stand on protein, carbs, and fat. Meals sit in a clean timeline organized by breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. Set your own calorie and macro targets. FEATURES - AI food tracker: log by photo, voice, or text - Macro tracker with protein, carb, and fat rings - Nutrition data from a verified nutrition database - Confidence and source labels on every food - One smart clarifying question when it matters - Human-unit portion editing (slices, cups, eggs — not just grams) - AI coach grounded in your actual day - Custom calorie and macro targets PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data is never sold. Voice is transcribed on your device — recordings never leave your phone. Delete your account and all your data anytime, right from the app. Bite is free to use. Start tracking in seconds. Made with care by PPV Enterprises LLC.

A calorie counter that's actually free. No subscription, no paywall, no account — just a fast, private calorie tracker that takes seconds to use. Most calorie tracking apps put barcode scanning, macros, or AI behind a monthly fee. This one doesn't. Every tracking feature below is free. AI CALORIE TRACKER Point your camera at your plate. The AI identifies the foods, estimates portions, and fills in calories, protein, carbs, and fat. Every result is clearly labeled an estimate and fully editable before you log it — you stay in control of the numbers. You get free AI scans every single day. A FREE CALORIE COUNTER APP THAT LOGS IN SECONDS • Search 260+ built-in foods with typo-tolerant search • Scan any barcode — powered by the Open Food Facts database • Scan a nutrition label with your camera to create a custom food • Build multi-ingredient meals and save them for one-tap logging • Copy yesterday, quick-add calories, favorites and recents TRACK WORKOUTS TOO Log a run, a walk, or a lifting session in two taps and see the calories you burned. Not sure what something burned? Describe it in your own words and AI estimates it for you. Burned calories can add back to your daily budget — or not, if you'd rather keep a fixed target. Your choice, in Settings. SEE YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE A clean dashboard shows calories left, protein, carbs, and fat with progress rings, plus a week strip so you can spot trends instantly. YOUR GOALS, COMPUTED PROPERLY Onboarding uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation — the same formula dietitians use — to set a realistic daily calorie and macro plan. You choose the pace, from gradual to aggressive, and see the date each one actually lands on. Sensible limits are built in: the app won't push you past a safe rate of loss or below a safe minimum of calories, no matter what you pick. APPLE HEALTH, DONE RIGHT Optionally connect Apple Health to see your steps, workouts, active calories, and distance next to your nutrition — and sync your weight. Read-only, never uploaded anywhere, and the app works fully without it. TRACK MORE THAN FOOD • Water tracker with a daily goal • Weight log with trend chart and goal line • Progress charts: calories, activity, streaks • Streak protection — one gentle nudge before a streak breaks • Daily notes, calendar history, CSV export • Home Screen widgets PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything you log stays on your device. No account. If you use AI Photo Scan, the photo is analyzed and discarded — never stored, never used to train anything, never linked to you. A couple of small banner ads keep the app free; they are never targeted using your data, and nothing about your food, weight, or Apple Health data is ever sent to an advertiser. WHY IT'S FREE Free calorie counter apps usually aren't — they're trials. This one is supported by two small banner ads and nothing else. No subscription prompt, no locked features, no "upgrade to see your macros." Download the calorie tracker free, keep your data on your device, and cancel nothing — because there's nothing to cancel. Free Calorie Counter is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. Nutrition values and AI estimates are approximate — always verify against packaging when accuracy matters.
