Cooking journal app / system?

r/Cooking
To All Newbie Cooks: Cooking journal; get one. ... I'm quarantined so I exhaustively researched the best recipe managing apps - Here's what I found!

Any food diary or eating habits apps that aren’t body shaming/weightloss-focused?

r/WitchesVsPatriarchy
I was going to suggest Recovery Record. It has a lot of customization options so you can turn off things like behavior tracking of specific things (or all the things, I think) if they don't apply, or you can add your own if you want to track ...

Best Food Tracking Apps for Home Cooking?

r/Cooking
Simple diet diary. Fairly no frills but it is free.

What is your favourite/preferred food tracking app and why?

r/loseit
I use MyNetDiary and it has a vast database of items that can be recognized by barcode. If not, you can enter the calories manually. However, I will say that it overestimates maintenance weight and you should use a TDEE calculator or Apple watch ...

Simple food journal app recommendations?

r/1200isplenty
Have you tried AteMate? It's a simple photo based diary. Super easy to use and very customizable. Been using it for a couple of years. Here is the link to the App Store. I think they also have an Android version, but I don't have that link.

What is with this game?

r/CookingDiary
I'm telling you, Mytona is evolving, but backwards. Cooking Diary's gonna shut down soon. Only whales spend money on this game now. 60% players only chat in the servers and don't play.

Best app for cooking, recipes/ keeping, and grocery organizing?

Another enthusiastic vote for Paprika. I’ve been using it for years, close to 4000 recipes saved (more than I can ever cook 😉).

Can anyone recommend a good food diary app where I could track my symptoms and the foods I eat? Ideally something compatible with an android phone. Thanks!

r/FODMAPS
Thanks for that. I have the Monash app but have only used it to determine the fodmaps in foods. Didn't even realize that you could use it as a food diary.

Best nutrition apps just for tracking - not for goals or weightloss? : r/nutrition

r/nutrition
Cronometer is brilliant I was using it for years, only concern for me was to always log foods and recipes manually. Was often eating outside or just no time to actually weigh everything when cooking. So I went on and tried many other options like cal ai etc.

Simple food journal app recommendations?

r/intuitiveeating
I've been using an app called EatBetter and I'm genuinely satisfied with it. There's a premium version, but even the free one works perfectly as a food diary. What I love the most is how the diary is designed with big, clear squares—it makes ...

Is anyone attempting the cooking diary offer? : r/SwagBucks

r/SwagBucks
I would recommend only using your gems when you really need to. I definitely spent too many early on when I didn’t need to. ... Oh! I'll definitely try this offer again then. I have the app still on my phone but I've been busy with work so I haven't played it as much.

Between devices

r/CookingDiary
If I downloaded cooking diary on my ipad, started the story mode etc etc, and I download it on my phone, can it be the same information or account? Or will I have to play from scratch on my phone?

Food diary app that doesn’t track calories in

r/loseit
See How You Eat - it's a visual food diary, so you just take a photo of each meal you have and it compiles it into an easy collage, plus you can write notes over the images too if you want that as well!

What's your favorite nutrition tracking app?

r/nutrition
Myfitnesspal has been around for a long time and because of that - they have the best user-created food database. It is easy to search and find what you are looking for. A lot of food tracking apps have similar features but the thing that makes ...
