About Iron Counter and Tracker
Iron deficiency is common among menstruating women, vegetarians and vegans. It is also associated with low-protein diets, ultra-processed food diets, restricted diets (eg gluten-free and dairy-free) and fad diets. Symptoms include excessive fatigue due to to anemia, which can also lead to heart and other muscle damage, impaired mental and physical development and immune function (all body cells require iron for energy). Extra iron is needed during pregnancy. Use this app to avoid iron deficiency. The app can also be used to help people with hemochromatosis avoid iron overload.
The app will set a default daily iron target for you based on your age, sex, and whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding. You can change this target at any time, for example if you have been advised to restrict iron intake due to hemochromatosis.
Record the foods & drinks and amounts you consume using the barcode scanner, speech recognition, by favoriting foods, or using Search and using 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 iron intake into a spreadsheet for your own information or to share with healthcare providers.
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.
You can synchronize all data in the app with other First Line Medical Communication Ltd nutrient counter apps on your iPhones and iPads.
Apple's HealthKit functionality is integrated in the app's user interface so you can share your data with Apple's Health app
Also useful nutritional information via the Info tab.

Version History
2.10.7
Apr 5, 2024
Average daily iron intake is now displayed at the top of "Month view" screens in red type. Iron intake over 120% of target on any day is now indicated by a red exclamation mark within the daily total ring. Bug fixes and minor revisions to "How to use the app" instructions.
2.10.6
Feb 14, 2024
Redesigned "barcode scanning" screen and text popup to improve functionality on all devices, including mini iPhones. Revised coding for daily listing of logged foods so foods attributed to different meals, eg breakfast, appear together even if entered at separate times; and the ingredients of recipes logged appear in the popups detailing the contribution of each ingredient to the daily target.
2.10.2
Jan 10, 2024
The 212 plant-based foods/beverages in the 328-item database provided with the app now appear in the “Iron 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 14, 2023
Improvement to recording intake of the same food on different occasions during a day so each recording will be listed as a separate item identified by the meal and/or time of intake when you overwrite a previous entry if you confirm in the popup it should be a new entry rather than a change to the previous entry.
2.9.0
Nov 1, 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.

2.7.2
Mar 21, 2023
Now with a barcode scanner, but the United States and Canada are the only countries requiring manufacturers to provide iron content in the Nutrition label, so the data may not be available elsewhere in the world using the barcode. Revised "How to use the app" instructions highlighting that the barcode scanner will probably only be useful for users in the United States and Canada, and that users from other countries will find it more useful to find a best fit from the app's 325+ database of foods and beverages and can add in their own foods if they have an iron content for them. App Preview 2 has been revised to highlight this.
2.7.1
Mar 17, 2023
