Accurate Calorie Calculator

BMR, TDEE, TEF & calorie goals

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Calculate Maintenance & Net calories, BMR, TDEE, TEF (Thermic Effect of Food) with transparent formulas and goal scenarios Accurate Calorie Calculator helps you estimate your daily calorie needs with transparent nutrition math instead of a black-box number. Use the app to calculate BMR, TDEE, maintenance calories, net calories, activity calories, and the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF). Enter your profile, choose a physical activity level, or use manual activity calories from your fitness tracker to build a clearer calorie target for weight loss, weight gain, recomp, or maintenance. Key features: • Calorie calculator for maintenance, deficit, and surplus planning • BMR calculation using established formulas • TDEE estimate with physical activity level (PAL) support • Manual activity calories for more personalized results • Net calorie target for easier food tracking • Thermic Effect of Food (TEF) options • Macro-weighted TEF based on protein, carbs, and fat • Weight loss and weight gain scenario projections • Educational guides for BMR, TDEE, TEF, PAL, NEAT, EAT, and METs • Metric and imperial units • Clear calculation breakdowns so you can see where each number comes from Accurate Calorie Calculator is built for people who want to understand their calorie budget, not just receive a generic estimate. The app separates basal metabolic rate, activity energy, food thermics, maintenance calories, and net calories so you can make better decisions when adjusting your diet or training. Use it for: • Finding your maintenance calories • Planning a calorie deficit for weight loss • Planning a calorie surplus for weight gain • Comparing activity assumptions • Estimating calories from BMR and TDEE • Understanding how macros affect TEF • Setting a practical daily net calorie goal The educational content explains common nutrition terms in plain language, including basal metabolic rate (BMR), total daily energy expenditure (TDEE), thermic effect of food (TEF), physical activity level (PAL), non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT), exercise activity thermogenesis (EAT), and MET calorie formulas. This app is for educational and planning purposes only and does not provide medical advice. Calorie needs are estimates and can vary based on physiology, tracking accuracy, training load, health status, and lifestyle.
