MyFoodAnalysis for iPhone and iPad
What's really in your day
A food log on the same 455,000 USDA foods as this site. Search, scan a barcode or snap your plate, check every food, and see your day against targets worked out for you.
For iPhone and iPad with iOS 18 or later. In English.
Three ways to log a meal
Each meal has its own sheet, with its foods listed above the search, so adding to breakfast happens where breakfast is.
Search any food or brand. It is this site's search, so spelling mistakes are forgiven, and tapping a result shows what is in it, with its share of each of your targets, before you add it.
Scan a barcode on anything in a package. The numbers are the label the maker sent to USDA.
Snap your plate and the app names each food in the photo, estimates the amounts and matches every food to a USDA record. You check all of them before anything is logged. The photo is read by an AI model on computers ObjectGraph runs; no outside AI company receives it. The first time, the app asks before it sends a photo and explains this.
Your day on one screen
Calories in a ring, protein, carbs and fat as bars against your targets, fiber and sodium under them, and every meal as a card.
Tap any food to change the amount, the serving or the meal, or to delete it. Long-press it to move it, say from dinner to lunch. Swipe to turn the page to another day.
Every nutrient, against targets made for you
The app works your targets out from your age, sex, height, weight and activity. For adults the nutrient targets come from the National Academies' Dietary Reference Intakes, and under 19 from the FDA Daily Values. In pregnancy it asks the trimester, and when breastfeeding the baby's age. Each target says where it comes from, and any of them can be set by hand.
The colors mean something: green is good, and amber, then red, is a lot of something to keep under, like sodium or saturated fat. A nutrient a food doesn't report shows as not reported, never as zero, and foods from a photo are marked as estimates.
Recipes, and your usual day
Build a recipe once from its ingredients, say how many servings it makes, and log it by the serving.
Tell the app what you usually have for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Each morning those meals wait in your log, faded, and one tap on Had this logs them. Nothing counts until you say so.
One account, on your phone and here
Sign in with Apple, Google or email. It is the same account and the same log as My food on this site, so a lunch logged on the phone is here on the computer.
Looking foods up and scanning a barcode need no account at all: the app opens on Search, and signing in is only for the log, your targets and recipes.
Privacy: what the app keeps
What you eat is health information, and the app is built that way: it keeps what runs your log, and nothing else.
No ads, no tracking
There is no advertising or analytics code in the app. Nothing you log is sold, used for advertising or used to train AI.
Only what runs your log
With an account we keep your sign-in, the profile you choose to fill in (it is only used to work out your targets), your log, your usual day, your recipes and your meal photos. Each account's data is locked to its own sign-in.
Meal photos
The app asks before it sends the first one, and sends a smaller copy without location data. An AI model on a computer ObjectGraph runs names the foods; no outside AI company receives the photo. It is stored privately with your log; cancel the review and it is deleted.
Yours to take, or to delete
In You, Download my data gives you a ZIP of everything your account holds, photos included. Delete account removes your sign-in, profile, log, recipes and photos at once.
The App Store's privacy label
Data used to track you: none. Data linked to you, used only to make the app work: your name and email, what you log, meal photos, your recipes, your account ID, and your year of birth and sex.
The camera
It is used for two things only: barcodes and the meal photos you take. A barcode is read on your phone, and only its number is sent, to find the product.
The whole policy, with who holds what and where: Privacy.
Questions
- Do I need an account?
- Not to look foods up or scan a barcode. The log, your targets and recipes need one: sign in with Apple, Google or email. It is the same account as My food on this site.
- Which devices does it run on?
- iPhone and iPad with iOS 18 or later. The app is in English.
- Where do the numbers come from?
- Every food is a USDA FoodData Central record, the same 455,000 foods as this site, and anything estimated is marked. Your targets come from the National Academies' Dietary Reference Intakes and the FDA's Daily Values, and the app links each one to its source.
- What happens to my data if I stop using it?
- It stays in your account until you delete it. Delete account in You removes everything at once; download it first if you want to keep a copy.
Every number from USDA FoodData Central, and the app tells you when it is guessing.
