Stop eating blind
You wouldn't drive with your eyes closed
Yet most of us eat that way every day — a rough guess, a number off a chart, no way to check any of it. Fork Ally itemizes what you actually ate, builds your targets from your own body, and shows the arithmetic behind every one. Your goal, with the lights on.
iPhone · iOS 26 or later · free to start
An actual meal, actually logged. Nothing here is a mock-up.
How it works
Three seconds, not three minutes
The reason people quit trackers is the search-scroll-tap-repeat of entering a meal. Say it once instead.
Say it, type it, or shoot it
Describe the plate in your own words, or photograph it. Speech is transcribed on your iPhone itself — the audio never leaves the device.
It comes back itemized
Every food separated out with calories, protein, carbs, fat, fibre and eight micronutrients. Common foods resolve instantly from a database built into the app, with no network round trip at all.
You check it, then it saves
Nothing is logged until you say so. Wrong portion? Tell it — “make that three eggs” — and it restates the whole meal instead of quietly editing one line.
Why it's different
A tracker that shows its work
Your numbers, not a table's
Targets are computed from your own height, weight and measurements — and if you have a DEXA scan, from your actual lean mass. Then they are re-checked against what the scale and your log really did.
The budget moves with your day
Sat still all day? The number reflects it. Walked 15,000 steps? You earned the food, and it says so. Apple Health supplies the burn; the maths is recomputed, not fudged.
Every number names its source
One screen lists the arithmetic behind every target, each line citing the published paper it came from, linked to PubMed. If you disagree with a number, you can go read why it's there.
The receipts
Ask it “says who?”
and it answers
Nutrition apps are full of confident round numbers with no provenance. Fork Ally treats that as a bug. Open How your numbers are calculated and every figure is reproduced with your own values, alongside the study it came from.
These are references for arithmetic the app performs — descriptions of what researchers measured in groups of people, not conclusions about you.
Privacy
Your food diary is nobody else's business
A log of everything you eat, plus your weight, is about as personal as data gets. It is treated that way.
Never sold, never shared. Your data is not sold, rented, or handed to advertisers or data brokers. There are no ads in the app and no third-party trackers on this page.
Dictation is for that one request. What you say is sent to be transcribed, turned into text, and not kept — nobody stores the audio.
Apple Health is read-only. Fork Ally reads your weight, body fat and active energy to do the maths. It never writes anything back to Health.
Leave whenever you like. Delete your account from inside the app and everything on the server goes with it. Export a full copy of your data to your phone at any time.
