## Comparison vs typical calorie apps

| Aspect | FoodTracker | Typical app |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Logging speed | Photo-first flow; optional barcode and search | Heavy manual search and favorites juggling (e.g. MyFitnessPal-style flows) |
| Macro visibility | Calories + protein, carbs, fat, fiber surfaced together | Often buried behind paywalls or clutter |
| Weight + food context | Trends and forecast tied to intake patterns | Charts that rarely connect meals and weight |
| Privacy posture | Clear policies; subscription via Apple | Opaque data use; aggressive upsell patterns |
