Scan nutrition labels
Point the camera at a label and OpenMeal reads energy and nutrients on your device, checking every number against what it saw before it fills in the food.

OpenMeal
Know what you eat. Keep it to yourself.
OpenMeal tracks calories, macros, water and fasting with your own food database. Scan a nutrition label and the food fills itself in, right on your iPhone.

Questions
Good to know.
Can't find your answer? Write to us and you'll hear back from the people who build OpenMeal.
Contact supportWhere does the food data come from?
From you. OpenMeal builds a personal database from labels you scan, foods you enter and meals you create, so every entry matches what you actually eat.
Is label scanning done online?
No. Reading the label happens on your device. Nothing is uploaded.
Calories or kilojoules?
Both. Show either or both. Each is stored exactly as printed, so labels are copied faithfully.
Can I sync between iPhone and iPad?
Yes, optionally, through your own private iCloud database.
