In one sentence
MealCatch saves what you eat with a single photo — press the shutter and you're done, and it sorts itself into breakfast, lunch and dinner.
About
Take a photo from the button on the Lock Screen or in Control Center, without unlocking. MealCatch puts it into that day's breakfast, lunch or dinner by the time you took it. The last day you ate sits at the top in big photos; earlier days follow below, only the days you took photos. There are no calories, no scores, no charts and no streaks, and it never sends reminders. If you forget a meal, you can add a text note later — or not. Forgetting is fine.
Why it was made
There are plenty of apps that count calories and score your meals. Many people know they should keep some kind of record, yet don't want numbers or lectures. MealCatch is for them: it only keeps what you ate, and says nothing about it.
Design notes
Done at the shutter
No form to fill in after the photo, and no confirmation either. The time the photo was taken decides the meal. Meal times can be changed in Settings, for people who work nights or eat late.
Straight from the Lock Screen
The MealCatch Camera can sit on the Lock Screen, in Control Center or on the Action button. Take as many dishes in a row as you like without unlocking; they arrive on Home the next time you open the app.
No numbers
MealCatch doesn't analyze photos or estimate nutrition. The photo says it all.
Two sets of sample meals
The Japanese sample is rice bowls, ramen and curry, again and again — each photo different. The English sample is breakfast all over the place, burgers and pizza. Sample notes say only what was eaten, never an excuse.
Private by design
Photos are kept inside the app, apart from the Photos library. Nothing is sent anywhere; only the purchase goes through the App Store.

ひとことで
食べたものを撮るだけで残すアプリです。シャッターを押したら、それで終わり。撮った時間で、朝・昼・晩に勝手に並びます。
作った理由
カロリーを数えたり、点数を付けたりするアプリはたくさんあります。数えられたり、説教されたりはしたくない。でも、何を食べたかぐらいは残しておきたい。そういう人のために、撮ったら終わりで、何も言わないアプリを作りました。
こだわり
- 撮ったら終わり。撮った後の入力も確認もありません。朝・昼・晩は撮った時間で決まり、時間帯は設定で変えられます
- ロック画面・コントロールセンター・アクションボタンから、ロックを解除せずに何皿でも続けて撮れます
- カロリー・点数・グラフ・続けた日数は出しません。写真を見ればわかります
- 見本は日英で別。日本語は丼・ラーメン・カレーの繰り返しで、全部違う写真。見本のメモには食べた物だけを書き、言い訳は書きません
- 写真はアプリの中にしまい、写真アプリには混ぜません。外へは何も送りません（購入だけは App Store の仕組み）
