I built a calorie tracker you never have to type into - scan or talk, it logs itself. Free beta, looking for people to break it.

After years of abandoning MyFitnessPal every January, I built the thing I actually wanted: a tracker where logging takes seconds. Point the camera at your plate or a barcode and macros fill themselves in. Or just say it out loud - "two eggs, toast, slept 6 hours, took magnesium" - and it files everything. No forms.

It also syncs Apple Health / Garmin / Oura / Strava and estimates a "biological age" from your habits. (Beta testers are split on whether that number is motivating or annoying - genuinely curious what this sub thinks.)

Honest disclosure: this is my first app, it's in TestFlight beta, and it's completely free during the beta - no card, no trial countdown. I'm a solo dev and I read and answer every piece of feedback myself, usually same-day. Beta feedback has already shipped real fixes - voice logging got an overhaul, serving sizes in food search, and the newest build adds a nutrition-label scan fallback for barcodes that aren't in the database.

What I'd love from you: try logging one real meal with the scanner and tell me where it felt slower than typing. That's the whole bet of the app, so if it fails there, I need to know before I press release.

[iOS, Beta] CaltrackIQ - wellness tracker where you scan or talk instead of typing. First app, 3 testers, need honest feedback before I press release.

First-time founder. CaltrackIQ started as a calorie tracker because manual logging drove me crazy, and it grew into an all-in-one wellness tracker.

What it does:

- Point your camera at food (or a barcode) and macros log themselves

- Or just talk: say what you ate, how you slept, what supplements you took - it files everything, no forms

- Syncs with Apple Health, Garmin, Oura and Strava, and estimates a "biological age" from your habits and wearable data

- Weight trends, fasting windows, sleep/recovery, supplement reminders

Status: App Store approved, but I'm holding the release until people who don't know me have torn it apart. 3 testers so far - the only active one is my friend, who is contractually obligated to be nice to me.

(100% free during the beta - if you ever hit a paywall screen, just close it.)

What I need broken:

- The meal scanner: actually faster than typing, or gimmick?

- Onboarding: where did you almost close the app?

- The bio-age number: useful, or annoying?

There's a feedback button inside the app that lands straight in my inbox and I reply to everything. Happy to return the favor - drop your product below and I'll test it.
