and counting. Each one written in plain words, reviewed, and saved.
Calorie tracking starts with your words.
Describe your meal in everyday language. Mindful turns it into an entry you can review and adjust. You can also add a photo or scan a barcode when that helps.
Write it down. See your calories and macros.
Type what you ate, such as 'blueberry yoghurt' or '1 bowl of rice.' Mindful creates an initial calorie and macro estimate. Add portion details and review the entry before saving.
Log a meal with a photo.
Take a photo to start a food entry. Mindful estimates the foods and portions it can identify, and you can add details or correct the assumptions to better match your meal.
Scan a barcode. Check the serving.
Scan a packaged food to look up its nutrition information. Check that the product and serving size match what you ate, then add it to your journal.

Built from a personal need.
Mindful started with a simple frustration: logging a meal could feel like homework. Searching food databases, choosing portions, and trying to make sense of the numbers took time away from the meal itself.
Mindful brings food journaling, calorie tracking, and nutrition estimates you can review into one place. Describe a meal, check the details, and get on with your day. Over time, your journal gives you a way to look back and notice your habits.

A few things to know.
What is Mindful Food Journal?
Mindful is a food journal and calorie tracker built around writing what you ate. Describe a meal in everyday language, review estimated calories and macros, and follow your progress over time. Photos and barcode scanning are also available.
How accurate are the calorie estimates?
Mindful provides estimates, not exact measurements. Review the sources and assumptions behind an entry, then correct details that do not match your meal. A confidence score describes the AI's assessment of an estimate; it is not an independently measured accuracy percentage.
Can I correct a food or portion estimate?
Yes. Edit an entry manually or use Edit with AI to describe a change, such as a larger portion or an ingredient to remove. Review the updated entry before saving it.
Can I track macros and set my own goals?
Yes. Track protein, carbohydrates, and fat alongside calories. Mindful can help you set initial targets from your profile and activity level, and you can customize your daily goals.
Which devices does Mindful support?
Mindful is currently available for iPhone running iOS 26 or later. An Android version is not currently available.
