    Plate size helps portion estimation. Cropping tightly around food removes useful scale context.

FAQ

What can AskCalories analyze?
AskCalories can estimate calories, protein, carbs, fat, fiber, and portion size from a meal photo or a written description. AI estimates are not measurements, so review and edit them before saving.
Can I use voice input?
Yes. Tap the microphone in chat to transcribe what you ate, review the text, and send it. Voice input requires an internet connection and is not a background or hands-free mode.
Can I correct an estimate?
Yes. Before saving a meal you can edit its name, category, serving count, calories, protein, carbs, fat, and fiber.
What progress does the app show?
The Today view compares logged calories and macros with your daily targets. Progress includes 7- and 30-day calorie and protein charts plus the number of days logged.
Does AskCalories replace a dietitian or medical device?
No. AskCalories provides estimates for general nutrition awareness. Do not use AI-estimated nutrition for medication dosing or as a substitute for professional medical guidance.
Do I need to create a named account?
No signup form is required. The app creates a device-bound account during onboarding so it can save and sync your entries.
