Calories, protein, carbs, and fat.
See your daily totals alongside your goals and trends, and correct an entry when a portion was wrong.
The rest of your routine.
Save recipes with steps and servings, turn ingredients into a grocery list, and log sets with rest timers and progression notes.
Why we build it
Tracking should help you understand your day. Our mission is to make food logging simpler, bring nutrition and training together, and help you see patterns that support lasting habits. ScanYourMacros is built by a small team with feedback from the people who use it.
Accuracy and privacy
Food data comes from product labels, nutrition databases such as USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts, and user contributions. Photo analysis estimates ingredients and portions, so review results before saving; the package label is the best place to check a specific product. We do not sell personal data. Our Privacy Policy explains what information the app uses and how it is handled.
ScanYourMacros provides information and estimates, not medical advice. Consult a qualified healthcare professional for medical concerns.
A few helpful answers
How accurate is a meal photo scan?
Photo scans estimate foods and portions. Review the ingredients, quantities, and nutrition before saving. Sauces, cooking oils, and hidden ingredients can affect the result.
What if a barcode is not recognized?
Try searching by food name or brand. You can also add food manually. Check the package label when entering its nutrition information.
Can I save a recipe and cook a different amount?
Yes. Saved meals can include a photo, preparation steps, and a serving count. Scale the ingredients for cooking, then choose the portion you want to log.
Can I use the app for workouts too?
Yes. Choose or create a program, log your sets, and use a rest timer. Your previous performance and progression tips help you plan your next session.
How do I correct a logged meal?
Find it under Today’s meals in Macronutrients. Use the item actions to adjust the portion, move it to another meal section, duplicate it, or delete it.
How does recipe sharing work?
You can share a saved meal with an accepted friend or create a share link. Shared meals include their photo and preparation steps when available. Anyone with an active link can view that meal; your private diary is not included.
