Simple and clean
Calory is a minimalist calorie counter. Clean design, simple interface, basic tracking. Good for people who want the simplest possible experience. Lacks depth for serious trackers.
Minimalist tracker
If you want a calorie tracker that stays out of your way, Calory is it. Log your food, see your total, done. No complex features, no overwhelming data. Simple and effective for basic needs.
Too simple for me
Calory is nice looking but too simple. No micronutrient tracking, basic macros, small database. I outgrew it in a week. Good for absolute beginners though.
Apple Watch widget is nice
The Apple Watch complication for Calory is actually the best feature. Quick glance at remaining calories from my wrist. The app itself is basic but the watch integration is convenient.
Decent starter app
Got Calory as my first calorie tracking app and it served its purpose. Simple to learn, easy to use. Eventually needed more features and switched to something more comprehensive. No regrets starting here.
Too limited
Calory is too limited for anyone past the beginner stage. No detailed macros, tiny database, no AI features. The minimalist approach is nice in theory but limiting in practice.
Perfect for my needs
I dont need 82 micronutrients or AI photo scanning. I just want to quickly log food and track calories. Calory does exactly that with a beautiful interface. Sometimes simple is better.
Clean design, basic features
Calory wins on design and simplicity. Loses on features and database size. If youre a minimalist who just wants calorie counts its great. If you want depth look elsewhere.
Fine for casual tracking
Casual calorie tracking without the fuss. Thats Calory. Clean, simple, limited. Perfect for some people, insufficient for others. Know which camp youre in before downloading.
Simplicity has a limit
Calory proves that theres such a thing as too simple. At some point you need features, database depth, and nutritional detail. Calory hits that limit quickly. Nice for the first week though.
Good Apple Watch app
Honestly I use Calory mainly for the Apple Watch widget. Its the most convenient way to check my remaining calories at a glance. The phone app is basic but the watch experience is top notch.
Database is tiny
Couldnt find half the foods I eat. The database is way too small. Manual entry for everything defeats the purpose of a calorie tracking app. Needs a much bigger food database.
Beautiful but basic
Calory is one of the best looking calorie trackers. Its also one of the most basic. If aesthetics matter more to you than features youll love it. If you need depth youll be disappointed.
Does one thing well
Calory counts calories. Thats it. And it does that one thing in a clean, pleasant way. But in 2025 most people want more from their nutrition app. Its a good simple tool, nothing more.
Minimalist calorie counting
For the ultra-minimalist who just wants a simple daily calorie count, Calory is ideal. For everyone else its too basic. The design is lovely but features are lacking.
Quick and easy
Logging is quick and the interface is clean. But the limited database means I often cant find foods. When it works its the fastest tracker out there. When it doesnt its frustrating.
Nice design cant save it
The design is genuinely excellent. If only the features matched. Limited database, no AI, basic macros only. Calory looks like a $10 app but functions like a free one. Style without substance.
Outgrew it fast
Downloaded Calory attracted by the clean design. Outgrew it within two weeks when I realized I needed micronutrient tracking and a bigger database. Good for day one, not for day thirty.
Pretty little app
Calory is a pretty little app for pretty little calorie tracking needs. Clean, minimal, limited. Works for what it is. Just dont expect it to be a comprehensive nutrition tool.
Apple ecosystem friendly
Good integration with Apple Health and Apple Watch. The simplicity works well on the Watch especially. If youre deep in the Apple ecosystem and want basic calorie tracking Calory integrates nicely.
