How accurate is AI calorie counting?
AI calorie estimates can be useful for logging, but they can be wrong about the food, portion, or preparation method. Kalo lets you review and edit an estimate before saving it. When precision matters, use a nutrition label, a food scale, or manual entry.
What food database does Kalo use?
Kalo can use structured nutrition records along with estimates for foods or portions that do not have an exact match. Review the selected food, preparation, and serving before saving.
How do I log a meal by typing?
Describe what you ate, including portions and ingredients you know. Kalo creates a calorie and macro estimate. Review the foods and amounts, make any corrections, and save the meal to your day.
Can I log a meal with a photo?
Yes. Take a photo of your meal, and Kalo creates a calorie and macro estimate from the foods it finds. A photo can miss oil, butter, sauces, or ingredients hidden under other food, so review the foods and portions before saving.
Can AI accurately track cooking oil and fats?
A meal description may leave out oil, butter, dressing, or sauce. Review those ingredients separately and use manual entry or a measured amount when they materially change the meal estimate.
Is Kalo free to use?
Kalo is free to download, and using the app requires a subscription. You can start with a trial when one is offered, or subscribe directly. Current prices, trial eligibility, and renewal terms are shown in the App Store or Google Play purchase screen before you confirm, and can vary by account and country.
Can I log meals I eat regularly?
Yes. Build a meal or recipe once and log it again from Recent, Favorites, and My Food. You can also import a recipe from a link. Review the serving you ate before adding it to your log.
Can I eat more on weekends?
Yes. Choose your higher-calorie days, like Saturday and Sunday, and Kalo lowers your other days so your weekly total stays the same. It works on iPhone and Android.
What platforms is Kalo available on?
Kalo is available for iOS and Android. Use the Apple App Store or Google Play listing linked on this website to check current device compatibility.
How is Kalo different from other calorie counter apps?
Kalo connects a personalized calorie plan with flexible meal logging and meal ideas based on what your day still needs. You can snap a photo, type a meal description, speak, reuse a saved meal, or enter amounts manually, then review the result and see how the meal changes your daily targets.
How do Kalo's personalized meal ideas work?
Kalo generates meal ideas based on your goals, dietary preferences, and what you have left today. The suggestions give you a practical place to start when you want to stay on plan but are not sure what to eat next.
