Hunger

Photograph a meal, and it estimates what is on the plate — and what that costs you in calories and macros.

The estimate is a starting point, not a verdict: every item, portion and number is editable before it is saved.

An iPhone app, coming to the App Store.

Today: a ring of calories against protein, carbs and fat — Today, against your goal

The meal log, with favorites along the top — Every meal, and the ones you keep

A photographed meal, with a switch for sharing it to the Feed — Share a plate, or keep it

A meal's items, each with a portion slider and its own macros — Correct any portion

Goals: daily calories and the macro split — Your calories and split

How it goes

Photograph what you are eating, or describe it in a line.
Hunger estimates the items, their portions, and the calories and macros — while you eat.
Correct anything that is wrong. There is no Save button: corrections are written as they are made.

Whose model reads the plate

That is yours to choose, in Profile, and any meal can be re-evaluated with another:

Online sends the photo to Hunger's own server, which passes it to a free-tier AI model to be estimated. It is not kept.
Apple on-device never lets it leave your iPhone. Needs Apple Intelligence.
Apple Private Cloud Compute sends it to Apple, which uses it for the request and does not keep it.

There is no silent fallback between them: the model you picked answers, or you see that model's own error.

Your meals stay yours

Meals, photos, goals and settings live on your iPhone. Looking around needs no account at all — only adding meals and the Feed need Sign in with Apple, and Hunger asks Apple for no name and no email.

Hunger reads active energy, workouts and weight from Apple Health only with your permission, and writes meals back only if you ask it to.

No advertising, no tracking across other apps or websites, no selling or sharing with data brokers, and no analytics SDKs.

The Feed

Photographed meals can be shared under a username you pick, for other people to serve or pass. Any single meal can be kept out of it, and the whole thing turned off in Profile. Every post can be reported and every person blocked.

Open source

The app and the server it talks to are both on GitHub, including the prompt that reads the plate.
