CalorieScan · Last updated 5 July 2026
The short version: CalorieScan has no accounts, no ads, and no tracking. Your food log lives on your device and in your private iCloud. Food photos are used only to identify the food and are never stored on our servers or sold.
When you scan a meal, the image is sent to our processing service, which forwards it to Google's Gemini AI purely to identify the food and estimate its nutrition. The image is processed in memory to generate that result and is not stored, logged, or used to train models by us. We do not access your photo library except for images you explicitly choose to scan.
With your permission, CalorieScan writes calories, macronutrients, water, body weight and workouts to Apple Health, and may read active energy to support exercise logging. This data is exchanged directly between the app and Apple Health on your device. We never receive, store, or transmit your HealthKit data, and it is never used for advertising.
Your entries, goals and settings are stored locally on your device using Apple's on-device database. If you enable iCloud sync, this data is stored in your own private iCloud account and synced across your devices by Apple. We have no access to it.
When you scan a barcode or search for a food, the code or search term is sent to public nutrition databases (such as Open Food Facts) to return product information. These requests contain only the barcode or search text — no personal information.
CalorieScan Pro is sold as an auto-renewable subscription processed by Apple. Payment, renewal and cancellation are handled by Apple through your Apple ID; we do not receive your payment details. See Apple's privacy policy for how Apple handles purchases.
CalorieScan is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a new "last updated" date.
