The problem

Manual calorie counting is broken

Searching a database for every ingredient, estimating portions, finding the wrong entry. Nobody does it consistently.

Old way
✗ Search "chicken breast 150g" in a database
✗ Find 47 different entries with conflicting values
✗ Guess the portion size and hope for the best
✗ Give up after three days
FreeCalorieTracker
✓ Take a photo of your meal
✓ AI identifies every item and estimates portions
✓ Adjust the portion slider if needed
✓ Tap to log. Done in under 10 seconds

FAQ

Common questions

Is FreeCalorieTracker really free?
Yes. Completely free to use with no subscription, no credit card, and no hidden charges. Sign in with your Google account to save your meal history across devices.
How accurate is the AI calorie counting?
Accuracy is typically within 10 to 20 percent for common dishes with clear, well-lit photos. For packaged foods, use the barcode scanner for exact data. For best results, photograph just your plate rather than the full table.
What is a TDEE calculator?
TDEE stands for Total Daily Energy Expenditure. It is the total calories your body burns per day including all activity. FreeCalorieTracker calculates your TDEE during setup using the Mifflin-St Jeor formula and sets your personalized daily calorie target automatically.
Does it work for restaurant food and international cuisine?
Yes. The photo analysis works for any food including restaurant meals, street food, and international cuisine. Just photograph your plate and AI estimates the calories based on what it can see.
How is this different from MyFitnessPal?
FreeCalorieTracker uses AI to analyze food photos directly rather than requiring you to search a database manually. No more hunting for the right entry. Just take a photo and get instant results. And it is completely free with no premium tier required for core features.
