Changelog

What's new in each version of Tare.

v1.11.0

Latest

Tare can tell muscle from fat, so a recomposition stops reading as standing still. Short on protein or fiber? Tap it and Tare tells you what to eat. Supplements can bring their own water with them. Plus: weigh-ins from Apple Health arrive on their own, vitamin D reads correctly, the B vitamins on scanned products stop coming up blank, and duplicate categories merge back into one.

Telling Muscle From Fat

  • Losing fat while gaining muscle used to read as standing still. With the scale flat, there was nothing to go on — every kilo was priced as fat, so the weeks your training was working looked like the weeks nothing happened. Tare now follows fat and lean mass separately and prices them apart
  • Add your body fat when you log a weigh-in, or let it arrive on its own — a scale that reports body fat through Apple Health fills it in for you, including up to six months you've already recorded
  • Body fat now travels both ways. A percentage you type into a weigh-in reaches Apple Health like your weight does, so it counts wherever else you keep it — and whichever app you last changed it in is the one that wins
  • Your weight chart now carries body fat alongside it. The two share one chart, so whether the weight you lost was fat or muscle reads at a glance rather than needing two screens and some arithmetic
  • Reports gains a Body Composition section — fat mass, lean mass and body fat percentage over one, three or six months, with a chart of how far fat and lean have each moved since the start of the range. Fat falling while lean holds its ground is the shape you're after, and you can see it happening
  • Your weekly check-in and the expenditure breakdown both say when your estimate is reading composition, so you can see why it moved
  • Once Tare knows your lean mass, your baseline burn is worked out from it rather than from height and weight — noticeably closer for anyone leaner or more muscular than average
  • A scale having a bad week can't run away with your targets. Body fat readings drift with hydration, so a reading claiming more muscle than a body can build gets discounted rather than trusted — and Reports tells you it happened and what it read
  • It waits until it has something worth trusting: four weigh-ins carrying body fat, spanning at least two weeks. Until then — and for everyone not tracking body fat at all — nothing about your targets changes

Protein and Fiber Suggestions

  • Tap protein on your daily log and Tare answers "what should I eat to close this?" — the same suggestions you already get for iron or calcium, now for the macro you're actually chasing
  • Fiber works the same way. Expand your daily log's nutrient panel and tap Fiber for beans, oats, berries and whatever else in your own food list closes the gap
  • Your own recipes, saved meals and custom foods come first, ranked by how much of the gap each one closes. A meal you eat every week beats a food you've never logged
  • The gap is measured against your target for that day — including any calories your Watch earned you, and the target you had set on a past day you're looking back at
  • Fiber now shows a target even if you've never set one — the standard recommendation for your sex, the same figure Goals already offered you. It used to sit there with nothing to measure against
  • Already on target? The same tap shows what got you there, ranked by how much each food contributed
  • Carbs, fat and added sugar stay as they are. They're limits to stay under, so there's nothing to close

Supplements That Bring Their Own Water

  • Tell Tare how much water you take a supplement with, and ticking it off logs both. Psyllium in 10 oz, creatine, electrolyte powders, effervescent tablets — the water reaches your day's total, glasses count and progress bar without a second tap
  • Enter the amount in your own units. Unticking the supplement takes the water back out again
  • The water card's undo button leaves it alone — that water belongs to the supplement, not to your quick-add taps
  • It reaches Apple Health dated to the day the supplement was taken, so filling in a day you missed lands on that day rather than today
  • Deleting a supplement clears the water it logged on past days too
  • Mark all as taken and Clear all now handle water and nutrition exactly the way ticking a single row does — previously the day-level buttons recorded neither

Vitamin D

  • Vitamin D from USDA foods was reading about 40× too high. A salmon fillet showed hundreds of micrograms against a 20mcg target, which is why vitamin D so often looked met when it wasn't. Every food now reads in micrograms, so USDA and Open Food Facts agree with each other and with the label
  • Your past days are corrected too. Vitamin D in your history will read lower from now on — that lower number is the accurate one. Meals logged from a recipe keep their original figure, so a recipe logged before this update and again after can differ
  • A few scanned vitamin D supplements — gummies and chewables — may now show no vitamin D rather than an impossible one. Adding one as your own food records it exactly as you enter it

Bug Fixes

  • Weigh-ins from Apple Health now arrive on their own. They only ever came in at the moment you switched the setting on, so a reading from your scale the next morning never reached Tare — the day stayed blank, your trend flattened, and nothing changed until you went back to Settings and turned the switch off and on again. Tare now picks up new readings as you use it
  • Readings your scale sends late — after a few days off Wi-Fi, say — are picked up too, rather than being missed for arriving after the fact
  • Your weight in Profile now follows your latest weigh-in whatever recorded it. An imported reading used to leave it showing the old number. Your targets don't move — those still change at your weekly check-in
  • Correcting your weight twice in one day no longer leaves two entries in Apple Health
  • Opening a weigh-in and saving it unchanged no longer stops that day taking readings from Health
  • Whatever you did last wins, in either app. Type a weight in Tare and it goes to Health; change it in Health and Tare picks that up instead. Correct a reading you disagree with and your correction stands — the newer of the two is the one you keep, rather than one app always outranking the other
  • Weigh-ins you delete stay deleted. Removing one used to leave it in Apple Health, so it came straight back the next time Tare looked. Deleting in Tare now removes what Tare put there — though a reading written by your scale still lives in Health, and removing it there is what clears it for good
  • Weigh-ins reach Apple Health at the time you recorded them, rather than all landing at midnight
  • New readings turn up when you come back to Tare, not only when you reopen the app from scratch
  • Reports is reordered around the questions you actually open it with — what you ate, then what happened to you, then the detail. Micronutrients move down beside the daily breakdown, and your expenditure estimate now sits just under the weight trend it's worked out from, instead of above it
  • The End Fast button on the Live Activity now ends your fast — from the Lock Screen or the expanded Dynamic Island, even with Tare force-quit. The activity dismisses and the session is saved as ended
  • "Foods to Aim For" no longer lists the same food several times: the food cache builds up an entry each time a database relabels a product, and those now collapse into one — including entries filed under a different brand name or a slightly different spelling
  • Suggestions no longer promote a food whose label states an impossible amount, like a pudding cup claiming five days' vitamin D
  • Lab-measured foods you haven't logged yet are badged verified in nutrient suggestions, matching how search already marks them
  • Your custom foods, favorites, and anything you've logged are never hidden from suggestions by that clean-up
  • Scanning a barcode you've corrected now always returns your version, rather than depending on which entry the database happened to return first
  • Logging a food from a nutrient sheet updates your day straight away — the bar you just acted on used to sit unchanged until you left the screen
  • Acting on a suggestion while looking at an earlier day now logs the food to that day, not to today
  • Thiamin, riboflavin, niacin and folate came up blank on every scanned product. Tare was asking for them under names Open Food Facts doesn't use, so all four showed a dash, counted for nothing, and kept scanned foods out of the suggestions for those four gaps. They read correctly now, and a one-time pass fills them in for products you've already scanned — including inside your recipes and saved meals
  • Two sets of Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner and Snack could appear on a new device when your own categories arrived a moment after Tare had set up the defaults. Duplicates now merge back into one, keeping your icon, color and time range, and your logged meals and saved meals move across with it
  • Duplicate supplement groups — a second Morning, Night and so on — merge the same way. Your supplements move to the group that stays, and a reminder set on the other one moves with them
  • Water and meals you remove in Tare are now always removed from Apple Health. Deleting something moments after logging it could leave the entry behind in Health, where Tare could no longer see it to remove it. The water card's undo button never removed anything from Health at all
  • Editing a logged meal no longer risks dropping it from Apple Health entirely
  • The impossible-label screen now covers your recipes and saved meals too, not just foods — a misprint copied into a recipe no longer ranks first for that nutrient

v1.10.0

Your Apple Watch starts paying you back — big days earn extra calories, and your first targets come from your real activity history.

Activity Bonus

  • Out-move your typical day and Tare adds the extra calories to today's target — a hike, a long ride, or a hard session counts the moment it happens
  • Quiet days stay quiet: your target never drops on a rest day, and nothing changes on an ordinary one
  • Tap the new Watch chip on your daily log to see the math — today's activity, your typical day, and the calories you earned
  • Bonus calories flow into your carb and fat targets too, with protein held steady
  • Turn it on in Profile → Smart Features — works alongside Adaptive TDEE

A Smarter Starting Point

  • New to Tare with a Watch on your wrist? Your last 30 days of activity calibrate your starting expenditure, so your first targets fit you before Adaptive TDEE finishes learning

v1.9.0

Search that leads with the food you asked for, and a clear signal of where each number came from.

Better Food Search

  • Search results now lead with the food you actually asked for, instead of every dish that merely lists it as an ingredient
  • See where a number came from: foods analyzed in a lab are marked Verified, and manufacturer label data is labeled as such

Less Noise in Your Results

  • One entry per food instead of five near-identical versions of the same product
  • Branded products tuck behind a "Show more" row, so lab-verified foods aren't buried beneath them
  • A quiet flag when a food's calories don't add up from its protein, carbs, and fat — usually a mistake in the source data

Bug Fixes

  • Setting up Tare on a second device now brings everything across cleanly — no repeated setup, no duplicate meal categories, your targets matching everywhere, and your day filling in as soon as syncing finishes
  • Changing your targets no longer rewrites the past — earlier days are still measured against the goal you actually had then, on the daily log and in your reports
  • Tapping a vitamin or mineral to see its top contributors now works everywhere, including straight from your daily log and for nutrients you've already hit

v1.8.0

Fractions wherever you type an amount, recipes logged by the serving, and a way to see which foods drove each vitamin and mineral.

Fractions & Serving Amounts

  • Enter serving amounts as fractions — type 1/3 or 1½ the way nutrition labels print them, no decimal math
  • Mixed numbers work too — type 1 2/3 with a space, exactly as you'd say it

Recipe Portions

  • Log a recipe by the serving or as a fraction of the whole batch, with the portion math done for you

Vitamins & Minerals

  • Tap any vitamin or mineral to see which foods contributed the most — great for spotting what pushed you over a limit

Bug Fixes

  • Your daily summary now reads "Over" when you pass your calorie goal, instead of a confusing "Remaining"
  • Light mode now renders correctly — cards show behind each tile, and vitamin and mineral names that were invisible on a white background are back

v1.7.0

Water syncs from Apple Health, and the water in your soups and recipes now counts toward your daily hydration.

Water from Apple Health

  • Water you log in the Health app, a smart bottle, or any other app now flows into your daily total in Tare — so your hydration finally matches what you actually drank
  • Your own entries are never double-counted — Tare recognizes the water it wrote to Health and skips it on the way back in
  • Turn it on with the Apple Health toggle in Integrations; recent water is pulled in whenever you open the day

Water in Recipes & Meals

  • Add water as an ingredient to any recipe or meal template — a bowl of soup can count its water toward your hydration in one step, with no separate entry
  • Logging that recipe or template adds the water straight to your daily total; deleting the meal removes it again
  • Enter and see water amounts in your own units — mL or fl oz

Water on the Daily Log

  • Meal templates show the water they contributed right on the daily log, so a higher total always makes sense
  • Edit or remove logged water in a tap or a swipe — change how much a meal counts, or drop its water while keeping the food
  • The water card's undo only removes water you added by hand — it never touches water from a meal or from Apple Health
  • Not tracking water in Tare? Hide the water card entirely from Profile → Smart Features

Bug Fixes

  • Editing a saved meal template no longer drops its other items when you make a change
  • Deleting a logged recipe or meal now also removes the water it added to your hydration total
  • Jumping to Today — or tapping any day — always refreshes the log with that day's entries

v1.6.0

Lock Screen and Dynamic Island timer for fasts, and easier custom food entry from labels.

Live Activity & Dynamic Island

  • Active fasts now appear on the Lock Screen with a live ticking countdown, body-stage label, and progress bar — no need to open the app to check time remaining
  • Dynamic Island support on iPhone 14 Pro and newer — stage icon and timer in the compact pill, full progress bar plus an End Fast button when expanded
  • One-tap "End Fast" button on the Live Activity finishes your fast without opening the app
  • "Overtime" mode kicks in at the target — the Lock Screen timer stays visible and counts up in green so you can track an extended fast
  • The auto-start notification now has a "Start Fast" action — tap it (even hours later) and your fast starts at the originally scheduled time, not when you tapped
  • Older iPhones without Dynamic Island fall back to the Lock Screen presentation automatically — every fasting user gets the at-a-glance timer

Custom Food Entry

  • Enter nutrition directly from the label — new "Per serving" / "Per 100g" toggle in custom food creation lets you type the values exactly as they appear, no mental math required
  • Defaults to per-serving for new foods (matches how labels read), per-100g when editing (matches what's stored)
  • Toggling between modes converts the displayed values automatically so the underlying nutrition stays correct

Bug Fixes

  • Auto-start fasting notifications now reschedule whenever you change your fasting start hour, grace period, scheduled days, or protocol — no more stale reminders firing at the old time
  • Tapping the auto-start notification on a cold launch now reliably backdates your fast to the scheduled time instead of landing on the "Window Closed" screen

v1.5.0

Macro customization, added sugar tracking, and iCloud restore on reinstall.

Macro Customization

  • Protein intake presets — Lower (1.6 g/kg), Standard (1.8 g/kg), Higher (2.2 g/kg) — with full custom values for any ratio in between
  • Lockable macro split — choose Balanced (30% fat), Low Carb (45% fat), or Keto (~8% carbs); the unlocked macro fills the remainder
  • Custom macro values are honored across onboarding, Goals, and weekly check-ins — no more silent reverts to a hardcoded formula
  • Goals row subtitles surface the active selection — "Higher · ≈ 1.0 g/lb" or "Custom · 21% carbs" — so the chip's value sits next to the gram input you're editing
  • Locked vs. derived macros labeled clearly in the Goals form
  • Upgrading preserves your current macro split — the weekly check-in won't try to revert it to defaults

Added Sugar Tracking

  • Track added sugar as a distinct nutrient — daily limit defaults to AHA recommendations (25g for women, 36g for men), editable in Goals
  • Daily calorie card adds Fiber and Added Sugar progress bars beside the macro row
  • Per-food rows in the Daily Log show an Added Sugar chip when the food contributes; meal category headers show meal-level totals
  • Custom food creation gains dedicated inputs for Total Sugar, Added Sugar, and Fiber, presented as sub-rows under Carbs
  • Nutrition label scanner extracts Total Sugars and Added Sugars from FDA labels (post-2020 "Includes Xg Added Sugars" format)
  • Pulled automatically from food databases — whole foods correctly show 0g, and obvious data errors are filtered out. Foods in your library are enriched on first launch; past log entries keep the values they had when you logged them
  • Recipe and template builders show full nutrition breakdown — Total Sugar, Added Sugar, Fiber — per total, per 100g, and per serving
  • 7-day Goal Progress in Reports now includes Total Sugar, Added Sugar, and Fiber alongside macros
  • Visual hierarchy: sugar and fiber render as indented sub-rows under Carbs everywhere they appear, matching FDA nutrition label conventions

iCloud Restore on Reinstall

  • Returning users on a new device skip onboarding entirely — your data flows in via iCloud sync
  • "Syncing from iCloud…" overlay shown while the first sync is in flight, so the app never looks empty
  • If sync hasn't completed after 30 seconds, a "Start fresh" escape hatch appears — for users whose iCloud data was purged via Settings → Manage Storage
  • If iCloud data shows up while onboarding is open, a confirmation prompt asks whether to restore it or use what you just entered — the prompt summarises what's in iCloud (profile, goals, food logs, weight entries)

Data Management

  • Reset All Data — Profile → Danger Zone with typed-RESET confirmation, wipes every record on every device signed into the same iCloud account
  • Remove a logged weight entry directly from the weight sheet — clear the field and the Save button becomes a destructive Remove action

Adaptive TDEE Accuracy

  • Confidence improves only on days you actually log food and weigh in — empty days no longer count toward the 28-day calibration target
  • One-weigh-in users no longer hit High confidence after 28 idle calendar days
  • Auto weekly check-in won't fire immediately after onboarding — requires Smart Features enabled and at least 14 qualifying days
  • Onboarding and check-in now share one macro/calorie formula — no more phantom +1–3 cal deltas in the suggestion screen

Bug Fixes

  • Fasting no longer backdates an auto-start when you open the app past the grace window — shows "Window Closed" with the next scheduled day instead
  • Macro values use rounding instead of truncation, so accepting a 132.7g protein suggestion shows "133" everywhere consistently
  • Toggling metric / imperial in Body Goals no longer drifts your weight, calories, or macros — and saving after just toggling no longer fires the "TDEE inputs changed" suggestion
  • Polish: meal-category deletion no longer crashes from the edit sheet, and the Goals form refreshes immediately after accepting weekly targets

v1.4.0

Vitamin and mineral tracking with personalized food suggestions.

Micronutrient Tracking

  • Track 22 vitamins & minerals — Vitamin A through Zinc, sodium included, plus cholesterol and fat breakdown
  • Micronutrient data automatically extracted from USDA and Open Food Facts APIs
  • Daily summary with pinned nutrients (Iron, Calcium, Vitamin D, Vitamin C) in the calorie card

  • Micronutrient columns added to CSV data export

Nutrient Suggestions

  • Tap any below-target nutrient in the micronutrient view to see personalized food suggestions
  • Suggestions ranked by what you actually eat — your recipes and frequent foods first, generic USDA foods last
  • Suggestions favor foods that close the gap fastest and that you eat often
  • Each suggestion shows serving size, nutrient contribution, and percentage of gap it closes
  • Reason badges show why each food was suggested — "recipe", "12× logged", "custom", or "new"
  • Tap any suggestion to open the logging flow — works for foods, recipes, and templates
  • Evidence-based absorption tips shown per nutrient with links to the corresponding NIH fact sheet
  • Tips on how to absorb each nutrient better, sourced from NIH consumer fact sheets
  • Dietary filtering — set Vegetarian, Vegan, or Pescatarian in Profile to automatically exclude incompatible foods
  • Realistic serving sizes — uses household measures from USDA when available, with caloric density fallback for spices and condiments
  • Gentle professional note shown when a nutrient has been severely below target — never alarmist
  • Nutrients that should never be "suggested more" (sodium, cholesterol, saturated fat) are excluded from suggestions
  • Health disclaimer on every suggestion sheet — for informational purposes only, not medical advice

Reports

  • Micronutrient section in Reports — see daily average intake vs target for all vitamins and minerals across any time range
  • Nutrients sorted by gap severity — worst gaps shown first for quick identification
  • On the 7-day view, tap any below-target nutrient to open personalized food suggestions
  • Longer ranges (14 days to 6 months) show micronutrient averages as a read-only trend — helpful for spotting patterns over time

  • Each ingredient row now shows protein, carbs, and fat — see what every item contributes at a glance
  • Tap or swipe right on any ingredient to edit it with the full nutrition preview, replacing the old grams-only prompt
  • Per-100g and per-serving totals shown alongside per-item nutrition

Food Search

  • Loading spinner appears on food rows while portion data is fetched
  • Larger tap target on food rows — full row width, fewer mis-taps

Bug Fixes

  • Barcode scanner no longer dismisses the recipe builder after a successful scan

v1.3.2

Improved Search Results

  • Generic foods (e.g. "Bananas, raw") now appear above branded variants in search results
  • Fixed an issue where some basic foods like raw chicken breast didn't show up in search results
  • Search results now show calories and full macros (protein, carbs, fat) inline for faster comparison
  • Food names can now wrap to two lines instead of truncating — no more guessing what "Chicken breast, boneless, skinles..." means
  • Custom foods appear at the top of search results, above USDA entries

Barcode Scanning

  • Barcode lookup now falls back to USDA when Open Food Facts doesn't have the product — better coverage for US brands
  • Faster barcode lookups
  • Unknown barcodes are cached for 24 hours to avoid repeated failed lookups
  • Added Open Food Facts text search fallback when USDA returns no results — improves coverage for international products

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed minimum search query length to 3 characters to avoid overly broad results

v1.3

Faster app load times, a nutrition label scanner, and fasting refinements.

Performance

  • Daily Log, Reports, Weekly Check-In, and Insights now load only the data they need instead of every record ever created — dramatically faster for long-term users

Fasting

  • Ending or cancelling a fast no longer re-triggers auto-start when navigating back to the Daily Log
  • Status bar now shows "Ended Early" with fasting duration or "Fast Complete" instead of incorrectly displaying "Skipped Today"

  • Tap a fasting protocol again to deselect it and clear its schedule
  • Custom foods now support non-gram serving sizes (capsules, scoops, cups) with smart unit picker
  • Serving unit picker shows parsed household labels (cup, cookie, egg) instead of generic "serving"
  • Fasting setting renamed from "Eating Window Start" to "Fasting starts at" — matches how you think about your schedule
  • Fasting goal reached celebration with "Complete Fast" button — keep fasting or end with a tap
  • Pull-to-refresh on the Daily Log view
  • Edit Entry screen now matches the Log Food layout

Bug Fixes

  • Numeric input fields now reject negative values when pasted
  • Disabling Daily Check-In now properly cancels its scheduled notification

v1.2

Adaptive TDEE, intermittent fasting, daily check-in, and correlation insights.

Adaptive TDEE

  • Learns your real Total Daily Energy Expenditure from weight trends and food log data — no activity tracker required
  • Daily weight fluctuations are smoothed into a reliable trend line using an Exponential Moving Average
