Lose It! details read from Lose It!'s App Store listing on 16 October 2026. Apps change, so check the current listing before you decide. Lose It! is a long-running, well-liked tracker. If its free search-and-log flow is all you need, it works.
What changes day to day
- Logging takes one photo. No searching for each item on the plate; the AI lists the ingredients and you adjust any portion before saving.
- The score looks at the whole day. Hitting a calorie number by skipping meals scores low; protein, fiber and plants count too.
- Friends without the weigh-in. Groups see each other's meals and effort, never anyone's weight.
What TabetAI adds after the number
- A daily score that never rewards starving. One grade across calories, protein, fiber, sugar, salt, plants and movement. Eat too little and it caps low.
- Targets that follow your trend. Your budget adapts from the weekly weight trend plus the steps and workouts your phone already counts, and you can override any target yourself.
- Local food, read from the plate. Chicken rice, cai fan, rendang, 定食, 滷肉飯. Photograph from up to four angles, or snap and go while the AI finishes in the background.
- Eat together. Add friends or family and copy a dish they logged into your own diary at the right portion. The weekly leaderboard ranks effort, never weight.
- A companion who notices you showed up. Six characters with their own voices react to what you ate. The tracker stands on its own: the companion never gates a feature or a stat.
- Your data stays yours. Health app data never goes into an AI prompt, optional cycle tracking never leaves your phone, and one tap exports everything.
