Showcase Bite Diary — calorie tracker (no account,no cloud)
What it is:
A calorie and food tracker for Android. All food logs, weight, and settings live in a local database on the device.
Why I built it:
A friend wanted a simple way to track what she eats for a weight-loss diet, and every popular option wanted an account or a subscription, or had a really convoluted setup just to get your calorie target.
It's also my first real solo app — built in Flutter, with AI help as a learning project.
Features:
- Calorie + macro tracking, with per-nutrient goals you can toggle (protein, carbs, sugar, fiber, fat, saturated fat, sodium, cholesterol).
- Barcode scanner via Open Food Facts — and if a product's data is missing or wrong, you can fix it or add it from the app, and the correction goes back to the open database.
- Recipes: build a meal from ingredients and it calculates the full nutrition.
- Weight tracking + optional BMI
- Starting with currently 285 whole foods preloaded with USDA values.
- Metric/imperial, dark mode, four themes.
- Works offline — the only network calls are the barcode lookup and the ad.
Monetisation: Free with a single banner ad. No subscription, no paywalled features, no IAP.

Genuinely after feedback — it's new and first complete finished app of mine, so if something's clunky or broken I want to hear it.
