Deficit
Easy Calorie Tracker
Track calories in 2 taps. No database. No barcode scanning. No account. Just you, a number, and your goal.
Calorie apps are bloated.
Deficit is not.
Most calorie trackers bury you in features — food databases with 100,000 entries, barcode scanners, social feeds, macro breakdowns, meal plans, AI photo recognition. All that complexity creates friction and kills the habit. Deficit strips everything away except what actually matters: knowing your number.
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Type a number, tap add. That's it. The fastest calorie entry of any app.
