About this app

Protein Buddy is a protein tracker for anyone who wants to reach a daily protein goal without tracking calories, carbs or fat. Track protein by photo, voice, barcode or manual entry, set a personalized target and see how much is left today.

Use it for strength training, muscle gain, recovery, maintaining muscle during weight loss, GLP-1 use, or simply building a more consistent protein routine. No account is required. Manual and barcode logging are free forever.

BUILT FOR A FOCUSED PROTEIN GOAL

• People who want a focused protein tracker instead of a full calorie or macro tracker.
• People focused on strength, muscle gain, recovery or maintaining muscle during weight loss.
• People using GLP-1 medication who want to keep a daily protein target visible.
• Anyone switching from a full calorie tracker to a focused protein log.
• Anyone who wants quick protein logging without searching a large food database.

Protein Buddy does not provide medical advice. Follow the guidance of your doctor or dietitian for your individual needs.

LOG PROTEIN IN SECONDS

• AI photo scan: snap your meal and get an estimate of its protein in seconds. No database digging, no manual math.
• Voice: say "chicken wrap and a protein shake" and it is logged. Hands free, mid-meal, mid-workout.
• Barcode: scan packaged products for instant protein data. Free and unlimited.
• Manual: know your numbers? Add them in two taps. Always free.

A TARGET BUILT AROUND YOU

A short quiz sets your daily protein target from your weight, height, age, activity, goal and GLP-1 use, or you can enter your own number. Prefer a steady start? Your target ramps up gradually over two weeks.

CAN I BRING PROTEIN HISTORY FROM ANOTHER APP?

Most nutrition apps save protein to the health app on your phone. Protein Buddy syncs both ways. Connect your health app to import protein logged in other apps, so your charts, patterns and insights work from day one. New entries from Protein Buddy are written back too. Your data is never locked in.

PROGRESS WITHOUT OPENING THE APP

Widgets for your home screen keep progress in sight. A friendly companion builds up block by block as you eat, with one-tap shortcuts into photo, voice or manual logging.

YOUR HISTORY, IN YOUR HANDS

Add or edit entries on any day, even in the past: grams, time, even the date. Streaks and insights recalculate automatically, so a forgotten dinner never unfairly breaks your streak.

DOES PROTEIN BUDDY WORK OFFLINE?

No signal? Photo and voice logs are saved on your phone and sent for recognition when you are back online. Nothing gets lost.

HOW DOES PROTEIN BUDDY HANDLE MY DATA?

Your log lives on your phone. Photo and voice recognition send only the meal being analyzed. Signing in is optional and adds backup, sync across devices and an easy move to your next phone.

SEE CONSISTENCY PAY OFF

Daily streaks, calendar history and weekly insights on timing, portions and rhythm show how steady protein turns into energy, recovery and strength.

PROTEIN FIRST, WITHOUT THE CLUTTER

Protein helps you stay full, maintain muscle and recover after training. Most apps bury it under dozens of numbers you will never use, then lock the basics behind a subscription. Protein Buddy tracks the one number that matters and keeps the everyday tools free. All features are based on scientific studies of building healthy habits.

Set your target, then log your first meal.
