Counted is the calorie tracker that does what MyFitnessPal used to do — without the ads, without the $20-a-month Premium tier, and without sending your eating habits to a server somewhere.
Everything you log lives on your phone in a local database you can back up to JSON whenever you want. No account. No login. No "we may share your data with our advertising partners."
▸ 7-DAY PRO TRIAL · LIFETIME FOR $0.99
Counted Pro unlocks for free for the first 7 days after install. No card up front. After the trial, keep everything you tried for $0.99 — one time, lifetime, no subscription.
What MyFitnessPal Premium costs: $20 / month.
What Cronometer Gold costs: $60 / year.
What Lose It! Premium costs: $40 / year.
What YAZIO PRO costs: $48 / year.
What Counted Pro costs: $0.99 once.

• No account required, ever
• Full JSON export and restore from Settings
• Open Food Facts (ODbL) + USDA FoodData Central (public domain) as the food database
• Permissions only when you opt in
• Anonymized crash reports only — no food entries, weights, or health data leave your device
▸ HEALTH CONNECT INTEGRATION
On Android 14+ Counted reads weight, BMR, active/total calories burned, exercise, glucose, and sleep from Health Connect — Garmin, Fitbit, Samsung, Wear OS, anything that writes there. With explicit opt-in it can also write Nutrition records back so other apps you authorize can read them.
▸ DESIGNED FOR THE LONG HAUL
If you've ever closed MyFitnessPal because of a paywall pop-up, ditched Noom because of the auto-renew, or stared at Cronometer's ad banner — Counted is that tracker. Fast, free at the core, $0.99 once for the rest.
