Kanso is a free calorie and macro tracker built on one idea: logging food shouldn't feel like homework. Snap a photo of your meal and AI estimates calories, protein, carbs, and fat. Prefer precision? Scan a barcode or search manually. Also: food diary, fasting timer, weight trends, strength and cardio logging, hydration, insights, and achievements. No ads, core tracking free. Built by an indie dev who'd rather earn users than paywall the basics. Available on iOS and Android.
