Overfeed is the calorie tracker built for people who want to gain weight, not lose it. Most nutrition apps assume you're trying to slim down. Overfeed does the opposite: it calculates your calorie surplus, shows you what you still have to eat today, and suggests real meals to close the gap. WHAT YOU CAN DO Photograph your plate Take a picture of your meal and Overfeed estimates the foods and portions. Adjust in two seconds with the sliders and it's added to your day. Know what to eat right now At any moment, the app tells you how many calories and how much protein you're short, then suggests meals calibrated to that exact gap. Recipe, weighed ingredients, prep time. Track real progress Weight curve, before/after photos, full history. Your photos stay on your phone. Muscle or fat? Add your arm and waist measurements to your weigh-ins. Every month, Overfeed compares the changes and tells you straight what you're actually gaining. Automatic adjustment Your calorie target recalculates as you weigh in. You pick the pace: slow, normal or fast gain. Cutting mode Need to flip the logic for a while? One button, and the whole app switches to a deficit. OVERFEED PREMIUM The subscription unlocks photo analysis, unlimited meal suggestions, the monthly verdict, progress photos and full history. EUR 9.99/month or EUR 69.99/year, no commitment. Auto-renews, cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Overfeed is not a substitute for professional medical advice. Nutritional estimates are approximate.
