Serious Nutrition is a calorie and macro tracker for people who train with a goal. Built by a calisthenics coach for his own bulk and cut phases – no account, no ads, and your diary never leaves your phone.
TRACK IN SECONDS
• Thousands of basic foods are built into the app – meat, fish, dairy, grains, vegetables, fruit, nuts, oils – searchable without internet. In English, that includes 6,300 American foods from the USDA
• About 290,000 popular branded products from around the world are built in too – scanning and product search work instantly, even offline
• Swiss dishes included: Älplermagronen, Birchermüesli, Cervelat, Sbrinz, Wähe – with official Swiss values
• Anything not built in is looked up online in Open Food Facts (3+ million products)
• Log eggs, bananas or apples by the piece – the weight is filled in
• Your own foods come first: whatever you scan or type once is saved and sits at the top next time
• Amount stepper, quick portions like “1 handful” or “last 45 g”
• Templates: save a breakfast once, add it with one tap
• Copy yesterday’s meal, undo a delete, quick entry with calories only
TARGETS THAT FIT TRAINING
• Separate calories for training days and rest days
• Protein minimum, fat range, carbs as the remainder
• Needs calculator: sex, age, height, weight, everyday activity and training days – with a clear breakdown of how your target is built, any time under More
• Phases with start and end date: bulk, cut, maintenance
THINK IN WEEKS
• Weekly budget: a day over target is fine as long as the week adds up
• Weekly average, target comparison and a plain-language summary
• Steps from Apple Health explain a stalling trend – they never change your targets
• Water tracking with a daily goal, +250 / +500 ml
WEIGHT TREND
• Daily weight with a 7-day moving average, so daily swings don’t fool you
YOUR UNITS
• Grams and kilograms, millilitres, centilitres and litres
• Ounces and fluid ounces (US and UK), pounds, stones, feet and inches
• Body weight and height in the units you actually think in
YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS
• Everything is stored on your device, no login required
• Export and import backups as a file
• Follows your device language: English and German
Serious Nutrition Pro unlocks templates, portion sizes, the weight chart, widgets and Apple Health – one payment, no subscription, no trial that turns into one.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Around 290,000 popular products from around the world are now built in – scanning and product search work instantly, even without internet.
• Built-in products: the most-scanned items worldwide plus the favourites of every country, from Open Food Facts. Anything else is still looked up online
• 6,300 American foods from the USDA when the app is in English – “cheddar” or “turkey breast, deli” now find what you mean
• Log by the piece: eggs, bananas, apples, tomatoes and 40 more – the weight is filled in
• Needs calculator under More: everyday life and training are asked separately, and a table shows how your target is built
• Steps from Apple Health in the diary and the weekly summary – they explain a stalling trend and never change your targets
• Short tips at the right moment for new users, instead of a tour
• Search puts the actual food first: “egg” finds eggs, not eggnog
• The App Store now lists German as a language
