A good fit for your everyday.
For people who want a photo as a starting point, the final say over portions and ingredients, and a useful connection between food, goals, and daily habits.
What you can do
From the first photo to your next plan.
Barcodes and nutrition labels
Look up a barcode, read a nutrition label on-device or with optional cloud AI, and save a reviewed label match for next time.
Your food diary and nutrition goals
Log meals, see calorie and macro targets, and review nutrition trends. Pro adds advanced analytics and Insights access.
Meal planning and shopping
Pro includes weekly meal planning and shopping lists. Plans use a labeled template fallback when AI is unavailable.
Recipes worth returning to
Premium lets you save ingredients and your entered nutrition per serving, then log a serving or add it to your plan.
Food and movement, connected
Premium supports Apple Health nutrition and activity sync with your permission. Weight sync is not currently available.
Everyday habits, your way
Track water, choose optional eating windows and reminders, and explore goal-program templates. Calorie-Light Mode hides calories in the Diary summary; other screens still show them.
Your journal and data
Premium progress photos stay in the on-device album and are never analyzed by AI. Import supported CSV food logs and export personal account data as JSON.
ReadPlate & Foodle
Share your daily nutrition context with Foodle, filter eligible dishes by remaining calories and macros, and bring ordered dishes back for portion review and diary confirmation.

Questions
Answers before you start.
What is ReadPlate?
ReadPlate is an iPhone nutrition app. It combines meal-photo estimates, a food diary, nutrition goals, planning tools, and everyday habits. You review food estimates before saving them.
How accurate are meal-photo estimates?
A photo cannot reveal every ingredient or exact portion. Treat the result as an estimate, review the ingredients and amounts, and add anything the scan missed before saving. Nutrition information is informational and is not medical advice.
What is included in Premium?
Premium includes every Pro feature, unlimited meal entries, the largest daily AI scan allowance, recipes, progress photos, Apple Health sync, and enhanced online AI guidance. AI use still has daily and service limits.
Can I use ReadPlate offline?
Supported meal changes can stay on this device and signed-in meal records sync when connected. Cloud AI needs an internet connection; on-device nutrition-label reading can work offline.
What happens to my progress photos?
Progress photos stay in the on-device album. They are never analyzed by AI. Sharing is your choice. This is different from meal-photo scans, which can use cloud AI; see the privacy policy for details.
Does ReadPlate connect to Apple Health?
Yes, with an active Premium entitlement, your opt-in, and Apple Health permissions. It can save meal nutrition and read activity, steps, and energy context. Weight sync is not currently available.
How do ReadPlate and Foodle work together?
Enable nutrition sharing to make your daily targets and logged calories, protein, carbs, and fat available to Foodle. Its remaining-budget filter checks all four limits using fresh ReadPlate data and dishes with complete, verified per-serving nutrition. Foodle sends ordered dishes and their nutrition back to ReadPlate, where you review portions and confirm what you ate. Confirmed amounts update your diary totals for the next Foodle choice. Requires compatible apps on the same iPhone and sign-in. Foodle TestFlight orders are simulated; smart suggestions require separate opt-in and service availability.
