Frequently asked questions
Is FitDiary free?
Yes. For free, you can log meals by hand or with the barcode scanner, send 3 chat messages a day, and track your water and weight. PRO adds unlimited chat and calories from a photo. You’ll see the PRO price in your currency in the App Store or Google Play before you subscribe.
How do I log what I ate?
Type or dictate the meal the way you’d say it, for example “a tuna sandwich and an apple for lunch”. FitDiary fills in the calories and macros, and you confirm the entry. With PRO you can also send a photo of your plate.
Does it understand home-cooked food?
Yes. You don’t have to look up every ingredient: type “a bowl of homemade chicken stew with mash” and the app estimates the calories for your portion. It works for restaurant meals too.
What if the numbers are wrong?
Tell it in the chat what to change, for example “actually it was only half a portion”, and the entry updates. Nothing goes into your diary until you tap “Add to diary”.
Do I have to weigh my food?
No. Describe the portion however you’d normally put it, like “a plateful” or “two spoonfuls”, and the app works out how much that weighs. If you want to be precise, type in the weight.
Can I ask the app what to eat?
Yes. Ask “how much can I still eat today?” or “what should I have for dinner to get enough protein?” and the answer is based on your target and what you’ve already eaten today.
Which phones does it work on?
Both iPhone and Android. It’s available in English and 9 other languages, with metric or imperial units, and can connect to Apple Health or Health Connect to bring in your steps, workouts and weight.
What happens to my data?
Your data is stored on Google Cloud with the safeguards GDPR requires, and we don’t sell it. You can delete your account and your whole diary at any time. Full details are in our privacy policy.
