Zolt: Energy and Macro Coach

Simply put, this app tracks so many variables and creates near real time analyses on how those variables impact things like your TDEE, sleep, recovery, energy levels, etc. Easily worth the money. I haven’t used the in app AI for food tracking yet, but I use a separate AI to help me meal plan and track all my intake, then provide me end of day totals in nutritional label format which I use Zolt’s nutrition label scanning feature to input it as one meal at the end of the day. UI is not always intuitive but workable. Instructions are sparse and it can be buggy sometimes but the developer is *extremely* responsive and seems genuinely enthusiastic about integrating fixes and adding more features.

Been using the free tier for a few months and then later switched to the premium tier. The free tier is awesome providing a highly accurate TDEE and syncing with Apple Health Data from any food diary app you use. If all you want to do is lose weight, you don’t even really need the premium tier, which is awesome. I ended up upgrading to the premium tier because the recovery stats and sleep functionality are awesome. I also wanted the food logging to be easier with the app itself. The predicted energy is also very reliable provided your weight data and food data is accurate. The library of food is not the biggest but frankly that’s where you can use free food diary apps to log what you eat and sync that with your health app. The premium tier also has an awesome chart showing you the history of your TdEE and predicted energy and especially the difference between your dietary energy and the predicted energy used. This app makes a lot of useful insights as long as you are honest and upfront about what you eat. And recognizing those insights is the first step to help you realize you can actually make changes that you understand and that you can see are making improvements.

Zolt is fantastic and in my opinion, the best fitness app out there! I enjoy lifting weights and tracking my macros… but the challenge I’ve had until getting ZOLT is always having to guess my current TDEE so I can eat the right amount to hit my goals. ZOLT gives me that info and so much more!! It accurately projects my maintenance calories on any given day (at any point in the day) and lets me track my food/macros, and even shows me other helpful metrics like scoring my current sleep and recovery habits. I love this thing! I’m grateful for ZOLT and the countless hours that went into crafting it. Like the name implies— ZOLT definitely gives me a boost of encouragement to stay on track and have fun doing it too.
