MealArt
Recipe calorie calculator that adjusts for cooking
Add the ingredients raw, mark what you boil, fry or bake, then weigh the finished dish. MealArt works out calories, protein, fat and carbs per 100 g and for your portion.
A food diary that does the maths for you
Calories and macros for home-cooked dishes, a barcode scanner and your own daily target. Free, no ads.
Barcode and label scanner
Point your camera at a barcode. If the product isn't in the database, take a photo of the nutrition table on the pack: the numbers are filled in for you and the product is saved to your list.
Calorie and macro targets that fit you
Enter your goal, height, weight and how active a normal day is. You'll see how many calories you need and how much protein, fat and carbs. Change it whenever you like.
Meal planner and shopping list
Plan your meals a few days ahead, and everything you need ends up on one shopping list, sorted by aisle.
Dry or cooked: same calories, different weight
Grains and pasta soak up water, so a single “per 100 g” figure doesn't tell you much. Weigh them whichever way is easier and MealArt does the conversion.
100 gportion weight
343kcal in the portion
343kcal per 100 g

Is it free?
Yes. Every MealArt feature is free right now, and there are no ads.
Can I look around before signing up?
Yes. “See the app” opens MealArt with a sample diary. You can also keep your own diary without an account: your entries are stored on your phone.
How do I count calories in a dish I cook myself?
Add the ingredients by weight and choose what you do with them: boil, fry, bake or stew. Weigh the finished dish and MealArt calculates calories, protein, fat and carbs per 100 g and for your portion. Frying oil is counted too.
How many calories are in cooked buckwheat?
About 110 kcal per 100 g, but the exact figure depends on how much water the grains took in. Weighing it dry is more accurate: 343 kcal per 100 g, and MealArt works out the cooked dish for you.
How much does rice weigh after cooking?
About three times its dry weight: 100 g of dry rice gives roughly 300 g cooked. The calories stay the same, about 352.
What if a product isn't in the database?
Take a photo of the nutrition table on the pack and the numbers are filled in for you. The product is saved under “Mine” and turns up by its barcode next time.
Do I need to download anything?
No. MealArt opens in your phone's browser. Add it to your home screen and it opens like any other app.
