About Calcium Counter and Tracker

Calcium deficiency is common, especially if on a vegan or milk-free diet or if pregnant or breastfeeding. It results in weakened bones and teeth prone to fracture (a break), weakened muscles with muscle cramps and spasms, dry skin, and brittle hair and nails. This app can help you avoid calcium deficiency.
Based on your age and sex, the app will set your daily calcium target as recommended by the US Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025. You can change this target at any time.
Record the foods & drinks you consume using the barcode scanner (if in the US or Canada where calcium content is required on the Nutrition Facts label), dictation, by favoriting foods, or using Search and use the serving sizes provided, which can be changed at any time.
Your progress towards your target daily intake will be shown on the dashboard in real-time.
You can also view your progress over time on the Month view dashboard, and export food diaries and calcium intake into a spreadsheet for your own information or to share with healthcare providers.
Synchronize with other First Line Medical Communications Ltd nutrient counter apps to share data between the apps.
Apple's HealthKit functionality is integrated in the app's user interface so you can share data with Apple's Health app.
The app’s 328-item curated food and beverage database shows all 312 plant-based foods in green type to help users consume the 30+ different types of plants per week recommended by experts for a healthy gut microbiome.
Users can also add their own foods and recipes to the app.
Nutritional information is provided through the Info tab.

Redesigned "barcode scanning" screen and text popup to improve functionality on all devices, including mini iPhones.

2.10.2

Jan 9, 2024

The 212 plant-based foods/beverages in the 328-item database provided with the app now appear in the “Calcium in foods" section, searches, and daily and long-term logs in green type to help users consume the 30+ different types of plant per week recommended by experts for a healthy gut microbiome.

2.9.1

Nov 12, 2023

Improvement to recording intake of the same food on different occasions during a day. You can now define the meal and/or time for each occasion and each recording will be listed as a separate item identified by the meal and/or time of intake.

Oct 31, 2023

Three new features: 1. Record & track time or meal (eg lunch) when recording food/beverage intake. 2. "How to use the app” instructions are now numbered 1–15 to indicate the steps to take when the app is first installed to become familiar with the app's capabilities; they have also been revised to highlight the need to allow the app access to your iPhone or iPad camera, microphone and speech recognition to scan barcodes and use dictation and speech recognition. 3. Sample recipes can be easily identified and deleted if desired, and a bug has been fixed.

Three new App Previews on the App Store to show how to set calcium target & preferred weight units (g or oz); how to record food & beverage intake using the barcode reader (if in the US or Canada), dictation, & search; and how to set preferred display for calcium content in food (%Target/serving, mg/100g or mg/oz, %Target/100g or %Target/oz).
