Questions

Can I use Calorie Tape offline?

Yes. Search, barcode scanning and logging work with no internet. Changes you make offline sync to iCloud when you reconnect.

What does Calorie Tape send to its servers?

Calorie Tape sends data only from 2 optional features, and only after you agree. Shared Foods sends a barcode that isn't on your iPhone. Label Reading sends package photos to read the label. If you save that food and it has a barcode, it also sends the photos and values for review. Each request carries an ID for your copy of the app, not your name.

What happens when I get a new iPhone?

Sign in to the same iCloud account, and your log and settings sync to it. Apple Health switches stay on each iPhone, so turn them on again there.
