Snap your meal. See the calories.
Snap a photo, scan a barcode or just say what you ate. Get calories and macros you can check and edit, and a daily target that fits your goal.
How it works
From plate to numbers in three steps
Snap your plate
Point the camera at your meal and take one photo. Good light and the whole plate in frame give the best estimate.
Check what the AI found
Each item gets its own calorie estimate. Change a portion or correct any item’s calories before you move on.
Watch your day add up
Calories, protein, carbs and fat count toward your daily target, so you always know what's left.
Four ways to log
No photo? Scan it, say it or type it
You can also search foods by name. Food data comes from USDA FoodData Central.
In the app
Every macro, not just calories
Protein, carbs and fat for every meal
Plus fiber, sugar and sodium. Daily and weekly averages show where your calories come from and which foods bring the most protein.
A daily target built for your goal
Set a goal weight and a weekly pace. You get a calorie and macro target and an estimated date for reaching your goal.
Progress you can see
7, 30 and 90-day stats, your weight trend and a logging streak show how the week went at a glance.
Free calorie calculator
How many calories do you need?
A quick estimate with the Mifflin-St Jeor formula. Change any value to see your number.
Your body uses about 2,330 kcal a day. This target creates a steady deficit for gradual weight loss.

What people say in the stores
Real reviews, quoted as written, with the store, country and date.
This app makes it so easy to track calories and macros. I’ve never tracked before because of how much work it is, but now it’s simple and incredibly useful. Nečakal som nič, ale actually je to dosť dobré. Stačí odfotiť jedlo a máte zapísané kcal. Translated from Slovak: I didn’t expect anything, but it’s actually pretty good. Just take a photo of the food and the kcal are logged.
…this is a super lightweight app that has all the features I’m looking for. Pour le moment cette application me plaît beaucoup pour me donner rapidement les k calories avec simplement une photo… Translated from French: So far I really like this app for quickly giving me the calories from just a photo…
Developer is very responsive! Design is great also Compare

Questions, answered
Is Limebowl free?
Downloading is free. Full access comes with a subscription that starts with a 7-day free trial. You see the price in the App Store or Google Play before you start, and you can cancel any time before the trial ends.
How accurate is the photo scan?
It is an estimate. The AI is good at recognizing foods, while portions and hidden fats like cooking oil are harder to see. That is why you can change any item’s portion or calories, and scan the label on packaged food.
Does it work on Android?
Yes. Limebowl is available on iPhone and on Android.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-in, and your food diary stays on your device.
Does it connect to Apple Health?
On iPhone, yes. You choose what to share. On Android, the app works on its own.
How do I cancel?
Cancel in your App Store or Google Play subscription settings. The Help page has the steps for both.
