Bilanz
Calorie tracking, no account

iPhone
No account, no ads, no streaks. Scan a barcode, type the amount, see what is left of the day. Entries go straight into Apple Health.
Bilanz counts calories and stops there. One number, at the top of the day: what is left.
No account, no ads, no streaks, no advice. Scan a barcode, type the amount, put the phone away. Under the number a band fills from the left as the day goes on, and runs past the goal notch in red when you go over. That is the whole idea.
YOUR ENTRIES LIVE IN APPLE HEALTH
There is no Bilanz server and nothing to sign up for. Meals are written to Apple Health as nutrition data, and so is your water. Whatever other apps write there shows up in your day as well, and if you delete Bilanz the entries stay where they are.
WHAT IS IN IT
· A barcode scanner. Hold the camera to a package, the product sheet opens. Names and nutrition come from Open Food Facts, the open food database.
· Text search for everything without a barcode, plus a row of what you logged recently: tap one and last time's amount is already filled in, hold it and the entry is made.
· Your own foods, for what no database has. Four numbers are enough; the full table down to vitamins is there if you want it, barcode included.
· A correction when the database disagrees with the package. It sticks for every future entry of that product.
· Your own daily target and macro split, with presets from balanced to keto.
· Active calories from Apple Health are added to the day's budget and shown on their own line, rather than quietly folded into the target.
· Water with its own goal, the amounts you use most, and an undo right after the tap.
· A month at a glance: one bar per day, the week's average next to it.
· Widgets for the Home Screen and the Lock Screen, and a scan button in Control Center on iOS 18 and later.
· Nutri-Score and the package photo on the product sheet. Both can be switched off.
WHAT IS NOT IN IT
No streaks, no badges, no reminders, no coach congratulating you on a Tuesday. No subscription, no ads, no tracking.
PRIVACY
There is no analytics or advertising SDK in the app and no account to attach anything to. What leaves the phone are barcodes, search terms and the requests for package photos, all of them to Open Food Facts, to get names and nutrition values back. Everything else stays on the device and in Apple Health.
THE INTERFACE IS GERMAN
Bilanz is written in German and has not been translated yet. The numbers read the same in any language, the labels do not.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Basic foods without a barcode
1216 foods now ship with the app: fruit, vegetables, meat, eggs, dairy, staples. They carry the vitamins and minerals that branded products almost never list. The numbers come from the Swiss Food Composition Database of the BLV and sit inside the app - nothing goes over the network for them.
Search understands German
Plurals and compound words: "Champignons" finds the mushroom, "Magerquark" the low-fat quark, "Hähnchenbrust" the chicken breast. And two words find something again — "Milka Alpenmilch" used to return an empty list.
Every nutrient of the day
A link under the macros opens the whole day: 36 values, each against its daily reference. Vitamins and minerals against the EU reference intakes, sugar, saturated fat and salt against the reference intakes, fibre after the DGE. What a source does not know stays a dash instead of counting as zero.
Counted correctly
Apple Health hands values back in the device's own unit, kilojoules instead of kilocalories or grams instead of milligrams. Bilanz converts them now instead of taking the bare number.
