Welcome to Snackbar.

Snackbar is a macro tracking app and diet coach designed to help you lose weight, gain muscle, or eat healthier.

At Snackbar, we believe everyone deserves access to the tools they need to take control of their nutrition and reach their health goals. Whether you're looking to make smarter choices, track your progress, or understand the impact of your decisions, Snackbar is here to support you every step of the way.

No rigid diets. No judgment. Just science-backed guidance that adapts to your goals—your way, on your terms.

Snackbar is built to fit seamlessly into your life, empowering you to take control of your journey with confidence. Welcome to the future of nutrition tracking—accessible, intuitive, and designed for you.

Getting Started with Snackbar

Snackbar fits seamlessly into your routine, making it easy to track meals, monitor progress, and stay motivated.

Getting started is simple. Snackbar guides you through setting an initial weight goal and estimating your daily caloric needs. Based on how quickly you want to see progress—and whether you're looking to lose, maintain, or gain weight—Snackbar will calculate your recommended caloric intake to help you reach your goal.

Set your weight goal and create a personalized macronutrient program tailored to your needs.

Once your goals are set, you can customize your program further by selecting dietary preferences like keto or low-carb, and adjusting for your expected activity level. Snackbar then generates personalized macronutrient targets for protein, fat, and carbs, aligned with your objectives.

If you’re already following a plan, you can easily import your existing targets and tweak them to suit your preferences.

With everything set up, you’re ready to start logging your meals—whether you're cooking at home, grabbing a quick bite at a cafe, or dining out. Snackbar has all the tools you need to make meal tracking fast, accurate, and convenient.

Explore a World of Food Options

Snackbar comes equipped with an extensive food database, designed to make logging your meals as easy and accurate as possible. From everyday staples to unique restaurant dishes, you’ll find everything you need to stay on track.

Discover thousands of everyday foods, recipes, and restaurant items, plus hundreds of thousands of branded grocery items searchable by barcode or name.

Common Foods: From fresh fruits and vegetables to whole grains and proteins, Snackbar covers thousands of everyday food items, along with common preparations. Whether you’re adding quinoa to your salad, grilling chicken, or snacking on almonds, Snackbar helps you log the foods that power your day.

Generic Restaurant Foods: When dining out, it's often impossible to know the exact breakdown of your meal. That’s why Snackbar includes thousands of restaurant items in their most common preparations. Whether you're savoring delicate har gow dumplings from Chinatown, enjoying a fresh California roll from your favorite sushi spot, or indulging in smoky Texas brisket, Snackbar makes logging your restaurant meals simple and precise.

Branded Restaurant Foods: Snackbar includes over 5,000 items from popular chains like Chipotle, Starbucks, and McDonald’s, providing accurate nutritional information for your favorite dishes. From a Chipotle burrito bowl to Starbucks’ secret-menu items like an off-menu Flat White, we’ve even included fun options like In-N-Out’s animal-style fries or a protein-style burger, so you can enjoy your meal and stay on top of your goals.

Branded Grocery Items: With over 330,000 grocery items, Snackbar has everything from pantry staples to specialty products. Just scan the barcode or search by name to log your favorite items. Whether you're shopping at your local store or ordering from a national chain, you’ll find the most common grocery items complete with verified nutritional information.

Logging your meals is easier than ever with Snackbar. Whether you're at home, eating out, or shopping for groceries, you can track it all quickly and accurately.

Weight & Expenditure Trends

In addition to tracking your food intake, Snackbar monitors your body weight over time. By logging your weight regularly (we suggest at least a few times per week), Snackbar creates a clear picture of your long-term weight trend, cutting through the noise of daily fluctuations.

Track your weight and caloric expenditure with clear, easy-to-read charts that help you stay on course.

As you log your weight and meals, Snackbar offers insights into your energy balance—the relationship between the calories you eat and burn. This helps you understand how your choices impact your goals, whether that’s losing weight, maintaining it, or building muscle.

Once Snackbar starts recognizing trends in your weight and expenditure, it offers personalized recommendations to keep you on track. For instance, if your expenditure is trending higher than expected and your body weight is decreasing too quickly, Snackbar will suggest adjusting your calorie and macronutrient targets to better align with your goals.

Of course, you're always in control. You can accept, modify, or ignore these recommendations and adjust your goals at any time.

Making Food Logging Fun

At Snackbar, we believe tracking your meals should be an enjoyable part of your day—not a chore. That’s why we’ve built an app that’s not only powerful but fun to use.

Snackbar's intuitive and fun logging experience makes tracking your meals easier than ever.

From its modern design to its seamless performance, Snackbar is crafted to feel fast, responsive, and enjoyable. Whether you're online or offline, our local-first design ensures that you can log your meals anywhere, anytime. The clean interface switches seamlessly between light and dark modes based on your device’s settings—or lets you manually select your preferred theme.

But it doesn’t stop there. Snackbar comes with over 15,000 custom icons, tailored for everything from common foods to restaurant items, making your logging experience visually engaging. With more icons being added all the time, logging your meals has never been so effortless—or fun.

The Secret Snackbar Master Plan

Snackbar’s mission is simple: to equip everyone with the tools they need to take control of their nutrition and achieve their health goals.

To accomplish this, we’re committed to offering a best-in-class free experience. Snackbar will never charge for basic features, because we believe that access to essential nutrition tools should be available to everyone, without barriers.

Beyond the free experience, we’ll introduce premium features for those looking to elevate their tracking with advanced tools, time-saving features, and deeper insights—coming later this year.

So, what’s the Secret Snackbar Master Plan?

  1. Build a world-class free experience, complete with powerful tools like barcode scanning, a comprehensive food database, and insightful trends that empower users to make better choices.
  2. Offer premium features for those looking to elevate their experience, including advanced tracking, custom insights, and productivity-boosting tools.
  3. Reinvest revenue from premium subscriptions into enhancing features across the board, ensuring that every user benefits as Snackbar continues to grow.

As we continue to grow, our vision remains clear: to make nutrition tracking accessible, effective, and enjoyable for everyone. And we’re just getting started. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s coming next to elevate your Snackbar experience.

What to Look Forward To

We're constantly working to make Snackbar even better, with new features that will elevate your nutrition tracking experience. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s on the horizon:

  • Nutrition Label Scanning: For foods not in our database, Snackbar will soon let you scan nutrition labels directly. This will be especially useful for users who enjoy specialty or unique items with limited nutritional data.

  • Scan From Photo: One of the biggest challenges for new users is building the habit of logging meals. Our upcoming Scan From Photo feature will make it easier than ever—just snap a picture of your meal, and Snackbar will automatically identify the foods and log them for you.

  • Customizable Restaurant Foods: Menus at restaurants like Chipotle and Starbucks offer endless customization options, and nutrition can vary significantly based on what you order. Soon, you’ll be able to customize restaurant items in Snackbar to match exactly what you ordered, for more accurate tracking.

  • Progress Photos & Body Fat Estimation: In addition to tracking weight, you’ll soon be able to log progress photos and, if you choose, get an estimate of your body fat percentage based on your photos and metrics over time.

These features are just the beginning of what we have planned to make Snackbar the most comprehensive and user-friendly macro tracking app available.

We'd Love to Hear From You

Snackbar is just getting started, and we’re looking forward to the journey ahead. As an early user, your feedback is invaluable to us in shaping the future of the app. Whether you have feedback on features you love, suggestions for improvements, or ideas for new tools, we’re listening.

We believe that the best products are built in collaboration with their users, and that’s why your voice matters. This is a community-driven project, and we want you to be a part of it from the very beginning.

If you have any feedback, questions, or just want to share your experience, feel free to reach out to me directly. I’d love to hear from you.

Together, we can make Snackbar the most comprehensive and accessible macro tracking tool out there.
