Three months ago you had the best ramen of your life at a tiny shop on a side street. You took a photo. It's somewhere in your camera roll — buried under 4,000 other pictures. You can't remember the restaurant name or even which neighborhood it was in. That meal is gone.
Yum makes sure that never happens again.
A FOOD JOURNAL THAT THINKS IN PHOTOS, NOT CALORIES
Yum is a visual food journal — a photo-first meal diary for people who love food but hate calorie counting. Snap a photo of what you eat, and it becomes part of your personal Timeline of Tastes — organized by date, tagged by meal, pinned to the place where you ate it.
No calorie counting. No macros. No food guilt. Just beautiful photos of meals you want to remember.
WHY MINDFUL EATING, NOT CALORIE COUNTING
For many people, calorie tracking does more harm than good — anxiety, obsessive behavior, turning eating into a math problem. Research shows that mindful eating is more sustainable for long-term health.
Yum is built on that philosophy. Log with a photo, add a note about how it tasted. Over time, you build awareness of your eating habits without the stress of counting.
SMART LOGGING WITHOUT THE WORK
Yum detects meal times automatically, reads GPS from your photos to identify where you ate, and lets you batch-import hundreds of food photos at once — sorted by date and location.
Add mood tags, custom labels, and personal notes. Build a searchable archive of every meaningful meal.
FOOD STICKERS & PHOTO CUTOUTS
Turn your food photos into playful stickers and cutouts. On-device AI removes backgrounds, creating fun food stickers you can share in iMessage, WhatsApp, or save to your collection. Cut out that perfect latte art or a beautifully plated dish — your meals become shareable art.
WHIM OF FATE
Can't decide what to eat? Tap the dice. Yum randomly surfaces a past favorite you forgot about — a fun way to rediscover your food history.
TIMELINE OF TASTES
Scroll through your food history as a beautiful visual timeline. Every meal is a photo card with date, location, tags, and notes. Swipe through months and notice patterns — seasonal favorites, comfort food cycles, or that stretch of takeout every night.
CALENDAR POSTER & FOOD COLOR CARDS
Turn your food diary into visual art. The Calendar Poster generates a monthly meal grid for Instagram or printing. Food Color Cards extract dominant colors from your photos — an abstract palette of your diet that looks like edible art.
STATS DASHBOARD
Meals logged per week, favorite locations, most-used tags — a simple meal tracker that helps you understand your relationship with food, without reducing it to numbers.
WHO Yum IS FOR
