Recipe Calorie Calculator for Android
I make nearly everything from scratch and too many basic cooking/baking ingredients are missing from this list. As someone who eats both extremely healthy and genuinely cannot eat wheat-based products, I noticed nearly all the traditional flour substitutes are missing from this list. Sorry, guys, I was really excited for this app, but maybe not for a few more upgrades.
The old version showed carbs and dinner for a recipe. Since I'm doing keto, I need this info but it isn't there anymore. Also the database is not great, and there's no way to add a custom ingredient. Eg, I'm using Bulgarian yogurt in a recipe, and no available yogurt has similar nutrition details. Also I discovered that the whole milk plain Greek yogurt is there but has empty nutrition information.
Can't find all food items.. Needs work.. Love the idea an wished it worked better
I have a Fitbit and use that app for tracking my food and calories. The problem always arises when something is made of several ingredients. If I make - yes! - oatmeal cookies. (Eeegads! A healthy person eating a cookie? See previous review!) The best thing would be to be able to enter these ingredients and then find out what 1 cookie would be. The FitBit uses a word search or a UPC search which is great but no way to combine and calculate a serving. Your search is too cumbersome for ease of use.

This app is suppose to let you put your recipe in and it will break it down. That way you know what calories are what your eating. The people using this app are going to be people who are healthy. So when u type in oat meal it should give you choices for oatmeal. It does but for every unhealthy version of cookies and instant stuff with sugar etc.Not one place could I find just standard old fashion oat meal .If I am eating oatmeal cookies who gives a crap about my caloric intake.
A great way to quickly figure out the number of calories you are going to consume.
