To scratch my own itch, I built FitBee to make tracking a bit less of a pain in the butt.
A few things that make FitBee stand out:
* Fast and lightweight - It's completely native, (mostly built using SwiftUI) and I've tried to make it as fast to launch/use as possible.
* Accurate nutrition data - The nutrition data is sourced from the USDA dataset and nutrition labels off the packages. I also spent effort adding east asian foods (e.g. things you get at 99 Ranch or Weee) to the database, since those were hard to find/track in other apps I've tried.
* Recipe importing - You can pretty much point any recipe at the app and it'll import the ingredients and generate nutrition information for you. As I got more into fitness, I started to cook more so this has been super helpful.
* Robust Apple Health support - You can sync data with Apple Health. I wear an Apple Watch so it's great for getting the energy burned through exercises.

If you end up trying it, I'd love any feedback!
