Calorie Buddy: Food Tracker
Photo, Barcode & Macro Log
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases
iPhone
Log food your way: snap a meal, scan a barcode or Nutrition Facts label, and get ingredient insights without making calorie tracking complicated.
Log food in seconds with a photo, barcode, Nutrition Facts label, or quick description.
Calorie Buddy is built around one idea: calorie tracking should take as little effort as possible.
Take a photo of your meal and let Calorie Buddy estimate calories and macros. Eating something packaged? Scan the barcode or Nutrition Facts label to use available product information and printed nutrition values. Or simply type what you ate, like “coffee and a bagel.”
## Set Goals Without Guessing
Not sure how many calories or macros to aim for?
Calorie Buddy can help estimate starting daily targets based on your body, activity, and goal.
Choose from:
• Lose Fat
• Maintain
• Build Muscle
Calorie Buddy suggests calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat while keeping the result fully editable. If you already know your targets, you can enter them manually instead.
Track your weight over time and update your goals as your needs change.
Optional Apple Health integration can use recent weight and active-energy information as additional context. Activity calories remain separate from your food target and are not automatically “eaten back.”
## Understand Packaged Foods
For packaged foods, Calorie Buddy can also help you understand what’s inside.
View parsed ingredients and Worth Knowing information for supported ingredients, including why an ingredient is used and relevant scientific or regulatory context.
## Faster Over Time
Foods you eat regularly are easy to reuse, so logging becomes faster instead of making you repeat the same work.
Saved meal photos can remain associated with your meal history, and account-backed food and goal data can be restored when you sign back in.
## See Your History Clearly
View your recorded calories and macros across daily, 7-day, and 30-day views.
Calorie Buddy distinguishes recorded food from days with no logged data instead of treating missing information as zero intake.

• AI-assisted food photo logging
