ZiB - Simple Calorie Log
No subscription. Snap to log.
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases
iPhone
Photograph your meal. It's logged. No sign-up, no setup, no subscription — open the app and it works. The wristband that does it with a single snap is coming next.
Take a photo. That's the whole app.
No account. No onboarding. No setup screen asking your goals before it'll do anything. You open ZiB, you photograph your food, and it's logged.
FREE. NOT "FREE."
No paywall. No subscription. No locked features, no trial that expires, no upsell after your third meal. If you want to help with the running costs there's a tip jar in settings, and it unlocks absolutely nothing.
SIMPLE ON PURPOSE
One screen. Your meals, and a camera button. That's it.
- No streaks
- No badges
- No notifications telling you that you've broken anything
- A day you didn't log is just a day you didn't log
HOW IT WORKS
Photograph your meal. ZiB works out what it is and how much of it, then pulls the calories and macros from the USDA nutrition database — real published numbers, not invented ones.
If it's wrong, tap it and fix it. It remembers, and gets better at the food you actually eat.
PACKAGED FOOD
Scan the barcode for that product's exact label. If the nutrition panel is visible in your photo, ZiB just reads it.
APPLE HEALTH
Optional and off by default. One-way: ZiB writes your meals to Health and reads nothing back.
PRIVATE
No account, no sign-up, no analytics, no ads, nothing sold. Your meals stay on your phone.
THIS IS HALF THE PRODUCT
The other half is a screenless wristband. It notices you've started eating, buzzes once, and logs the meal when you hover your wrist over your plate and snap your fingers. Nothing to open. Nothing to remember.
One purchase. No subscription, ever.
