Tare
Track what you eat, not who you are. One-time $6.99.
Most nutrition apps want your email, your data, and $10/month. Tare wants none of that. A calorie and macro tracker for iPhone and iPad that keeps everything on your device. No accounts, no ads, no analytics. Your data syncs through your own iCloud. One-time $6.99. Learns your real energy expenditure over time, includes a fasting timer with auto-start, scans nutrition labels on-device, and surfaces patterns between your nutrition and how you feel
I wanted a nutrition tracker that doesn't ask me to pay every month/year, doesn't need my email, and doesn't sell my data. So I built one.
What it does: You log your food, water, supplements, and weight. It searches the USDA database, scans barcodes and nutrition labels with your camera, and lets you build recipes and log portions. After 28 days, it learns your real energy expenditure from your data - no Apple Watch needed - and suggests updated calorie and macro targets each week through a simple check-in. There's a built-in fasting timer with six protocols and zero-tap scheduled mode, a daily wellness tracker that finds patterns between what you eat and how you feel, and reports that tie it all together. There's a recipe builder with per-serving nutrition breakdowns, meal templates you can log with one tap, and you can save any day's meals as a reusable template. Most apps lock these behind a subscription - in Tare they're just there. Everything syncs across your devices through your own iCloud - no servers on my end, your data never leaves your devices.
What it doesn't do: No AI food recognition, no photo-to-calories, no third-party integrations. That's intentional - your data never touches anyone's server. Even the nutrition label scanner runs entirely on-device. Tare keeps it simple - you search, you log, your data stays yours.
Why $6.99: I'll be transparent. I'm not trying to make a living from this. But the Apple Developer Program costs $99/year, the domain adds another $14, and I don't want to run it at a loss. If enough people find it useful and it covers those costs, I'm happy with that.
Did I use AI to build it? Yes. Mobile development isn't my main area of expertise, so I used Opus 4.6 throughout the process. The app works well and I use it daily myself.
What I'm looking for: Any kind of feedback - good or bad. Feature requests, things that annoy you, things you wish it did differently. I'm actively working on this and genuinely want it to be useful.
I have a handful of promo codes for anyone who wants to try it and share honest feedback. If you're interested, DM me - I'd just ask that you actually use it for a few days and let me know what works and what doesn't.
Also - first time making a product video, so go easy on that part.
