I’m asking for a friend, since I also am interested.

"Speaking of food tracking, anyone know of anything simple that will let me do that. Used to have one but they all turned into sub fees and pushing upgrades and meal plans and crap

I just want to be able to select an apple or compile ingredients totals into a sandwich recipe I don’t need to pay $8 a month for that"

I might as well look for FOSS ones

    That’s something I notice Samsung Health doing. Letting users input calories as is. There’s also a calorie goal, but I haven’t explore much whether that’s a default it gave based on weight and height; it also have further body composition data it would like, so my guess the calorie goal would also take that into account; if not fully customizable with your own goal.

    But using Samsung Health means it will be locked down in their ecosystem, and also most likely harvested for whatever they want that data for; most likely more ads for their smart juicer or smart fridge or something.

      For sure!

      The app I am currently using is called Calory. Sadly it’s not FOSS. I run an older version and block internet access to it so I don’t get the nag screens to pay their subscription pricing.
