Amy Food Journal

I really like the concept of writing food entries into an app like I’m writing in Apple notes. It’s more natural than to enter food with only pictures like Cal AI. Giving it 4 stars because there are a few bugs that detract from an otherwise excellent experience

I have recently messaged about two issues I have with the app and have received zero response to either and we haven’t received an update in a month. I’m hoping the app is still supported as it’s my go-to currently. Issues being: 1) no grouping foods together so you don’t see a long list and instead see “breakfast” “lunch” or whatever you label. This can also help stop accidentally deleting things when you go back to previous days (happens sometimes accidentally but no undo button). 2) if you eat the same food twice in one day with different serving sizes and you use the barcode scan OR label it as the same, the macros you put into the second serving will copy and overwrite onto the first serving. Obviously not wanted. Thanks! Hope to see something soon!

I’ve honestly lost count of how many times and ways I’ve tried to do journaling, but given up on it because it ended up being more of an obstacle to my day than it needed to be. That’s why I’ve been so thrilled to find Amy. Using my camera or natural language to just show or describe my meals as I go through the day means I can be in and out the app in a few seconds, rather than spending minutes fighting with a cumbersome UI to log meal times and portions. Amy’s leveraging of AI to solve the frustrations of traditional food logging apps is honestly brilliant and I love using this app!
