About this app

Track calories the easy way: snap a photo of your meal and MealCanvas does the rest.

It identifies the foods on your plate, estimates portions, and logs the calories and macros toward your daily goals. No typing food names, no hunting through databases, no weighing every ingredient.

And when something is off, one tap fixes it — then MealCanvas remembers, so it's right the next time.

— EASY FEATURES —

• Photo logging — point your camera at a meal and the foods are identified for you
• Voice logging — describe what you ate and it's turned into a meal
• Text logging — type it when you can't talk or shoot
• Barcode scanning — for packaged foods
• Quick add — just calories, no portion needed, no name required

— IT REMEMBERS YOUR FOOD —

Correct an item once — the low-fat milk you actually buy, your usual bread — and it's saved to your personal foods. From then on MealCanvas reaches for your version first instead of a generic database match. The more you use it, the less there is to correct.

— FAST, AND EASY TO ADJUST —

• Smart portion slider that adapts to the food
• Alternate food suggestions — one tap to switch
• Every item is labeled with where its numbers came from, so you always know what you're looking at
• Save your favorite meals for one-tap re-logging

— EAT WITH YOUR GOAL IN MIND —

Losing weight, gaining weight, and building muscle each call for different macros. Set your goal and MealCanvas sets the targets, then shows your day against them in Apple Watch-style rings.

• Track weight, body fat, and body measurements — manually, or imported from a connected smart scale via Health Connect
• Adaptive maintenance calories that learn your true needs from your own logs and weight trend
• US Navy body fat formula from waist + neck + hip measurements

— YOUR DATA, YOUR ACCOUNT —

• Anonymous accounts on first launch — start tracking instantly, no sign-up
• Optionally save your account with an email so your data survives a phone switch
• All data encrypted in transit and at rest
• Health Connect integration on Android (bidirectional weight + calories)
• No selling your data. No ads. No marketing emails.

— PRICING —

• Free tier: 1 smart scan (photo or voice) per day, unlimited barcode / search / Quick add / favorites
• Premium: unlimited smart scans, $4.99/month or $29.99/year, 7-day free trial

— WHY MEALCANVAS —

Your plate is the canvas. The food is the art. MealCanvas reads the plate in a second and hands it straight back to you — every number labeled, everything adjustable, nothing locked away.

It estimates, you correct it, and it remembers. That's the whole idea, and it's why the app gets more accurate the longer you use it.

What’s new

• MealCanvas has a new look — fresh app icon.
• Replace an item by scanning its barcode — tap the item, then "Scan a barcode instead." The app learns your usual products.
• Scanning the same barcode twice in a row no longer adds it twice.
• Paywall prices now show in your local currency.
• If camera access is off, the Capture tab offers Settings, Gallery, and Voice instead of a dead end.
• Setting a goal weight below the healthy range now asks you to confirm.
