One-off fee. Free updates. No ads/subscription/registration. Scan barcode. Sync w FLMC apps Share w Apple Health Color-coded high-protein, prebiotic, probiotic, UPF foods Use this personal protein diary and calculator app to achieve your fitness and nutrition goals if you're at risk of protein deficiency because you're on a plant-based, dairy-free or weight-loss diet, if you're over 40 and wish to increase protein intake to prevent age-related muscle wasting (sarcopenia), or to support a LCHF, Dukan, keto, paleo, or Atkins diet. Supplements & high-protein processed foods are not the answer because they are associated with unhealthy higher-than-RDA protein levels and do not provide the thousands of polyphenols & other natural chemicals found in whole food that are needed for optimal health & to prevent disease. The effects of not eating enough protein include muscle wasting & weakness, osteoporosis, impaired growth & development, poor wound healing, susceptibility to infections & illnesses, depression & anxiety, brittle hair, dry skin, weak nails, feelings of hunger & a predisposition to being overweight or obese. Set your daily protein intake based on guidance provided in the app & your preferences for weights of food (g or oz) and display of protein content in foods & beverages (ie, g or %target/serving, g/100g or g/1oz, or %target/100g or %target/1oz). Record food & beverage consumption using the barcode scanner, dictation, search or by favoriting foods & using the serving sizes provided (which can be changed at any time). Tap the notepad to add notes. Monitor daily & long-term progress, export data to share with healthcare providers, synchronize data with other First Line Medical Communications Ltd nutrient counter apps, & share data with Apple's HealthKit. Add your own foods & recipes & change serving sizes to personalise the app's 400-item database for you. All food & beverage popups indicate whether the item is a plant, good prebiotic, probiotic or ultra-processed (UPF) to inform a healthy diet & whether they are high or low FODMAP per serving where data are available to support people with IBS. The app also provides nutritional information for many healthy foods & supports a healthy gut microbiome diet using color-coded type & icons.

This app is limited and confusing. Definitely not worth the money

Developer Response
The app has been redesigned using new Apple technologies. The foods and amounts you eat can be recorded easily and quickly using the barcode scanner, speech recognition (touch the microphone icon), or by favoriting foods and using the serving sizes provided. Your progress towards your target daily intake will be visible immediately in real-time. You can also view your progress over time on the Month view dashboard, and export food diaries and protein intake into a spreadsheet for your own information or to share with healthcare providers. Apple's HealthKit functionality is integrated in the app's user interface so you can share data with Apple's Health app. You can also synchronize the app with all your Apple devices and First Line Medical Communications Ltd apps. The serving sizes are mainly those suggested by USDA Food Data Central, but can be changed at any time via the "Add food" tab to your choice of measurement eg g, oz, cups, pieces. The app is preloaded with 325+ common (mainly healthy) foods and drinks and you can add your own branded and other foods and recipes at any time. This means the app does not require access to the Internet (except on first use of the barcode scanner for a food) or registration, does not collect your data or require additional payments, and there is no advertising.
