Description
MacroFlow is a privacy-first nutrition tracker with everything you need to track calories and macros. Free forever, with no subscriptions, no ads, no accounts, and no data tracking. Just fast, powerful nutrition tracking that respects your privacy.
I built MacroFlow because I was frustrated with apps that lock essential features behind subscriptions. Calorie tracking should be free. Barcode scanning shouldn’t be behind a paywall. And your health data should belong to you, not advertisers.
What’s free in MacroFlow:
All core tracking features are included at no cost:
• Barcode scanning (with OpenFoodFacts and USDA FDC databases)
• Food database search (with OpenFoodFacts and USDA FDC databases)
• Full calorie & macro tracking
• Weight logging
• Intermittent fasting feature
• Statistics and charts
• Apple Health integration
• Data export
• Multiple units
• Customisable goals
• Measurement tracking
• Daily reminder check-lists
• Customise week date starts, preferred databases, favourite stats, macro targets, visual elements
MacroFlow uses free food databases and stores all data locally on your device. Nothing is uploaded, sold, or shared. If you ever uninstall or switch devices, you can export and import your data yourself, no accounts needed.
MacroFlow Supporter (One-Time, Lifetime Access)
This will give you lifetime access to a premium food database, Edamam, with faster search results and more accurate data from barcode scans. I wanted to provide a way for users to get better, reliable data beyond the existing solutions but unfortunately this comes at a cost to myself that I need to cover somehow. You will also get iOS widgets, an Apple Watch companion app and micronutrient tracking (vitamins and minerals). You can try this for free for two days at any time inside the app, no payment info is required.
For users who want to support development and gain access to a premium food database, MacroFlow Supporter is a one-time payment upgrade that grants:
• Access to the Edamam food database for expanded food search
• Advanced barcode scanning powered by Edamam
• iOS widgets for your home and lock screen
• Apple Watch companion app
• Additional visual customisation options for app colours and logo
• Micronutrient tracking, including vitamins and minerals
The Supporter upgrade exists to cover the cost of the premium food API and Apple Developer fees, not to restrict basic tracking. You can continue using MacroFlow’s core features for free, forever.
