Australia's trusted calorie and kilojoule counter — helping 200,000+ Australians track nutrition with confidence

iOS Android

The Challenge

Australians needed a simple, accurate calorie and kilojoule counter that understood local foods and products. Existing apps were US-centric with confusing interfaces and databases full of products not available in Australia.

Users wanted to quickly scan barcodes, track meals, and understand their daily intake — without wrestling with complicated features or searching through irrelevant food databases.

Our Solution

We built a cross-platform mobile app with an extensive Australian food database, barcode scanning, meal planning, and intuitive tracking. The app was designed for speed and simplicity — log a meal in seconds, not minutes.

Using Xamarin for cross-platform development, we delivered native-feeling UI on both iOS and Android while maintaining a single codebase. The result was a fast, reliable app that feels at home on both platforms.
