WHY FOODIECALC • 100% free — every feature, no paywalls, no subscriptions • Private by design — no account needed, no ads, no tracking, and we never sell your data • Syncs across iPhone and iPad through your own iCloud — or sign in with Apple or Google (optional) for a backup you can restore anywhere LOG FOOD IN SECONDS • Snap it — photograph a meal and get a log you can review before saving • Say it — describe what you ate in plain language, by voice or text • Ask Siri — "Log a meal in FoodieCalc" or "How many calories do I have left in FoodieCalc?" • Scan barcodes to pull nutrition instantly • Search a large food database, or create custom foods, recipes, and reusable meals • Quick-add anything with just the macros, and log water with one tap Powered by fatsecret nutrition API (www.fatsecret.com) INTELLIGENCE WITH BOUNDARIES • Voice, text, and nutrition insights run on your device with Apple Intelligence — nothing leaves your phone • Photo recognition uses Apple's Private Cloud Compute: it only runs after you opt in, and your photos are never stored • You review every suggestion before anything is logged • Spot food with Visual Intelligence and jump straight into FoodieCalc (AI features need an Apple Intelligence-capable device; photo logging and Visual Intelligence need iOS 27.) SMART GOALS • Personalized calorie and macro targets based on your body and goals • Fine-tune protein, carbs, and fat — even set different goals for different weekdays • Cheat days that keep your streak safe SEE YOUR PROGRESS • A clean dashboard with calorie and macro rings • Not just calories — vitamins, minerals, and fiber too • Water tracking with your own presets, synced two-way with Apple Health • Logging streaks, and weight tracking with a trend chart • Customizable Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets BUILT FOR YOU • Apple Health: fill in weight and height, export your nutrition, and let your activity shape your calorie target • Optional gentle reminders (Foodie Nudges) — off until you turn them on • Full VoiceOver support and Dynamic Type • Light and dark themes, accent colors, and alternate app icons FoodieCalc is free because we love building it. If it becomes part of your routine, you can buy the developer a coffee to support new features — it unlocks nothing, and the whole app always stays free. Start tracking smarter today. Happy logging!
