Finally, an app that understands YOUR kidney disease. Managing a kidney diet is overwhelming. Every food label feels like a puzzle. Generic nutrition apps don't understand phosphorus additives, potassium limits, or why your dietary needs are completely different from someone at a different CKD stage. KidneyPal changes everything. PERSONALIZED TO YOUR CONDITION Tell us your kidney condition—CKD stage, dialysis status, kidney stones—and KidneyPal sets personalized daily limits for sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and protein tailored specifically to you. AI-POWERED FOOD SCANNING Snap a photo of any meal or nutrition label. Our AI instantly analyzes it and gives you a kidney safety score based on YOUR limits—including hidden phosphorus additives that other apps miss. Get smart swap suggestions to make any meal safer, and chat with the AI to ask questions about what you just scanned. LOG MEALS YOUR WAY Scan photos, use voice or text quick-logging, browse our recipe library, or enter nutrients manually. Every method automatically tracks fluids too. No more juggling multiple apps. KIDNEY-SAFE RECIPE LIBRARY Browse delicious recipes with kidney safety scores and complete nutritional breakdowns. Each recipe shows exactly why it's safe for your kidneys, with ingredient-level guidance. Have questions? Chat directly with any recipe to get instant, personalized answers. IMPORT ANY RECIPE Found a recipe online you want to try? Just paste the URL and KidneyPal instantly analyzes it for your kidney diet — giving you a safety score and complete nutritional breakdown before you cook. SEE YOUR PROGRESS Track nutrient trends over time with beautiful charts. See your good days vs. bad days at a glance. Build streaks to stay motivated. When it's time for your doctor visit, export a complete report to share with your care team. BUILT FOR REAL PEOPLE Whether you're newly diagnosed with CKD, managing advanced kidney disease, on dialysis, or preventing kidney stones—KidneyPal meets you where you are. --- Download free and finally feel confident about what you're eating.

So far, so good

I’m being diagnosed with CKD. The doctor is moving more slowly than I like. While I wait I must wrap my head around what is going on and be proactive in my lifestyle changes.I like the app but wish a couple of things were different. I am unable to see a means of searching the recipe database. I’m currently on the 7-day free trial. Tonight I wanted to know if having salmon was a smart idea. I still don’t know.I’m new to tracking these food metrics. It would be nice for a beginner like me to have a cross reference back to the logged foods so that I can learn which foods caused me to consume too much phosphorus.If the app is searchable but I’m unable to see it, I will gladly increase my rating to five stars. Right now this app is the only thing helping me protect myself. Thank you for creating it.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, and for trusting KidneyPal during what we know can be an overwhelming time. A new CKD diagnosis brings so many questions, and we're glad the app is helping you feel more in control while you wait for answers from your care team.Great news: recipe search just launched in version 4.3.0! Update the app and you'll find a search bar at the top of the Recipes tab. Your timing is impeccable.Your second suggestion—tapping a nutrient like phosphorus to see which logged foods contributed to it—is excellent and something we're actively working on. That kind of cross-reference would be genuinely useful for learning your patterns.Thank you for the thoughtful feedback—it helps shape what comes next.

It better than most

For the price there should be way more features and recipes. Also need more options for other health issues/blood disorders. I’ll try for a month and add another review.

Run the other way- detrimental to kidney health

You probably are looking at this app because you or a loved one has kidney disease- these ARE NOT kidney friendly, and could promote kidney stones or increase cysts in PKD. They do not account for oxalates, many are loaded with sugar, high in carbs, and often low in healthy fats. Please do not use this as a reliable resource when it comes to your kidney health!

Developer Response
Thanks for the feedback! We've completely rebuilt KidneyPal from scratch — it's a brand new app now. AI-powered meal scanning, personalized nutrient tracking for your CKD stage, and a kidney-safe recipe library. We'd love for you to try it again!

Too many servings

The recipes that I looked for all seemed to be for 10 or 8 servings. That’s way too many to have to do all the recalculation this app would require.
