NutriScout is a nutrient tracker for people who take supplements as well as eat food — and who want to know whether the two together are actually hitting their targets. Log a meal or a supplement in seconds. Every vitamin, mineral, electrolyte and macro you care about turns green, amber or red against a target you set yourself, so you can see at a glance what your day was actually short of. SEE THE WHOLE DAY IN ONE DIAL A day score that counts up as you log, ringed by one status light per nutrient. Tap any of them for what you took, what you were aiming for, and where the gap is. BUILT FOR SUPPLEMENTS, NOT JUST MEALS Keep your own library of foods and supplements with the exact per-serving amounts off the label — every value is yours to edit, because your bottle is the only source that matters. Duplicate yesterday's smoothie with one tap. TARGETS THAT ARE YOURS Start from published daily values and change any of them. Track by the day or by the week. An electrolyte panel puts sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium side by side. SEE WHETHER IT IS WORKING Trend charts per nutrient, a coloured calendar of every day you logged, an on-target streak, and weekly adherence — the answer to "are these supplements doing anything?" NUTRISCOUT PLUS (optional subscription) The free plan keeps your logging, your library, your dashboard, your streak and your full history, and tracks eight nutrients. Plus adds: - Every nutrient tracked, not just eight - Weekly targets as well as daily - 30-day trends and reports (the free plan shows the last 7 days) - Hydration tracking - CSV export of your own data Monthly or yearly, with a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel it in your App Store settings. NutriScout is a wellness tracking tool, not medical advice. Talk to a healthcare professional about your own needs.

FastingForge is a calm, offline intermittent fasting timer. One tap starts your fast — then the Tempering Ring shows which science-backed stage your body is typically in, and how long until the next one. THE TEMPERING RING A live dial that heats from cold slate to molten gold as your fast runs. Each milestone — blood sugar settling, glycogen depletion, fat burning, ketosis, autophagy — ignites as its hour is reached, with a plain-language note on what is happening. HONEST ABOUT THE SCIENCE Every stage carries an evidence badge: well established, individually varies, or animal-model. FastingForge estimates from the clock; it never claims to measure your body. It is a general wellness and educational tool, not medical advice. WORKS WITHOUT A SIGNAL The timer, the milestones, your history and your reminders all run on your device. No account needed, no feed, no articles, no upsells mid-fast. EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS IS FREE The timer and the Tempering Ring, every protocol (13:11 through 20:4, OMAD, custom and extended), your full fasting history, streaks and stats, the complete stages library, this month's calendar, achievements and offline reminders — free, forever. FORGE PRO (optional subscription) - Weekday consistency analytics and the full trend breakdown - Weight logging, plus an honest read on how your weekly fasting hours line up with your weekly weight change - Full-history calendar and shareable milestone cards - 7.99 USD per month or 49.99 USD per year, with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers - Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. Fasting is not right for everyone. Talk to a doctor before fasting if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, under 18, diabetic, taking medication, or have a history of disordered eating.
