If your priority is hitting your protein goal and monitoring fiber intake without tedious logging, Proto is built specifically for that. The photo based AI tracking makes it significantly faster than traditional calorie trackers.

I've been using the app for a few months now and it's been great. I hate tracking my food because it makes me think of food all the time. Since this app is so quick and easy to use I'm able to log my meals quickly and not have to search through a list for each item in my meal.Pros: -taking a quick photo of your meal to get macros-voice to text feature -Editing an entry later to add more details to recalculate the macros if needed.-Adding common items to favorites to use over and over again -Saving common pantry items-Taking a picture of a nutrition label to have it calculate the macros-Responsive developer - answers questions within 48 hours-Doesn't share information with 3rd party developers.-Export to Apple Health-Export to a .csv fileCons:Tweaking one ingredient in the meal can cause other correct ingredients to change.I changed my rating to 5 stars because of the wonderful response from the developers. If I could rate 4.5 stars that would be more accurate, but they deserve the extra 1/2 star.
Developer Response
Wow, thank you! Your kind words made us feel very appreciated!We recently added functionality that allows you to edit the quantities of each ingredient without the whole meal recalculating - just tap on the amount and you can edit it there directly. We would love to hear from you about how you have been editing the meals and the output you've been getting, and work on making the experience better for you. Please reach out to us on support@tinyideas.net with some screenshots next time you have an example of this and we'll be happy to help!
Very open to suggestions!

You can’t try any of the features without signing up for a subscription. They offer a “free” seven day trial, which I immediately cancelled, but was charged the same day, even before the “free trial” ended.
Developer Response
Sorry for the confusion! The 7-day free trial is included with our annual subscription, while the monthly subscription starts immediately. It sounds like the monthly option may have been selected. All subscriptions and billing are handled directly by Apple, so we don’t have any control over when a charge is made. If you believe you selected the annual trial, please contact us at support@tinyideas.net and we’d be happy to help work out what happened.
