BetterBody

BetterBody is a nutrition app for iPhone and iPad from developer Mohammed Ali that combines meal planning, food logging and an AI-powered nutritionist. It is aimed at people who want a diet built around their own goals, food preferences and dietary restrictions, and who want to track what they eat and get guidance on nutrition without keeping a separate food journal.

BetterBody generates meal plans with an algorithm that takes each user's goals, food preferences and dietary needs into account. Meals are logged with a few taps, and version 5.0.1 added meal tracking through photos: the user snaps the meal and the app captures its macros. Logged food feeds daily intake insights covering macronutrients and micronutrients, along with progress reports.

The AI nutritionist in BetterBody is an interactive assistant where users ask questions, receive feedback and get guidance on their nutrition by message. The app also includes a recipe database of healthy options and integrates with popular fitness apps and wearables. BetterBody states that it stores data securely; the data it may collect and link to a user includes health and fitness data, contact info and search history.

BetterBody is free to download, with in-app purchases listed as Unlimited Access at $12.99 and at $99.99. It requires iOS 13.0 or iPadOS 13.0 or later and also lists Apple Vision with visionOS 1.0 as compatible. The app is available in English, is rated 4+, sits in the Health & Fitness category, and is sold by Mohammed Ali with copyright held by Devonshire Technology LTD.
