Cute food diary apps compared: stickers, pets, photos, or no numbers

Meal stickers with calorie estimates

Bling, Eatmoji, and Noms each turn a meal photo into a sticker and estimate its nutrition. They differ in platforms, in how much nutrition detail they show, and in what the free tier covers. ^{[1], [5], [9]}

A character that grows as you log

Capy Diet pairs a calorie counter with a capybara virtual pet that grows, with clothes, furniture, and mini-games to unlock. ^[3]

Photos without calorie numbers

See How You Eat and FoodView keep meal photos without counting calories. See How You Eat shows the day as a photo collage; FoodView keeps a simple gallery by day, week, or month. ^{[6], [12]}

Bling: stickers with an estimate you can edit

Bling is our product. Snap or upload a meal, review and edit the AI calorie and macro estimate, then keep it as a die-cut sticker; FOOD TICKET turns the day into a receipt-style recap you can save or share. ^[1]

Bling is free to download, and using the journal requires Bling Pro, listed at $4.99 per week or $39.99 per year on the US App Store (checked September 29, 2026). ^[2]

Choose it when you want the meal photo itself to become the keepsake and still see numbers you can correct.

Capy Diet: a pet that grows as you log

Capy Diet logs food through a database powered by FatSecret and an AI scanner, and tracks calories, macros, and BMI alongside its capybara pet. ^{[3], [4]}

Its App Store listing says food logging requires a subscription, and its age rating notes loot boxes. ^[3]

Eatmoji: collectible stickers and detailed nutrients

Eatmoji turns every meal into a collectible sticker and estimates calories plus 23 or more nutrients from a photo. Its listing says unlimited AI scans and full AI reports are Pro features, at $6.99 per month or $29.99 per year on the US App Store. ^[5]

It is listed for iPhone; we could not confirm a current Android listing.

FoodView: a photo gallery with no numbers

FoodView keeps meal photos, with optional notes, in a gallery by day, week, or month. By design it has no calorie tracking, barcode scanning, or manual data entry, and its App Store listing shows no in-app purchases. ^{[6], [7], [8]}

Noms: a sticker scrapbook that moves

Noms cuts a meal photo into a sticker with on-device background removal and estimates calories, carbs, protein, and fat. Stickers collect in a scrapbook and a Physics Box where they bounce when you shake the phone. ^[9]

On the US App Store it offers $9.99 monthly, $29.99 yearly, and $49.99 lifetime purchases; its Android listing says unlimited AI scans are part of PRO. ^{[9], [10]}

See How You Eat: photos instead of calories

See How You Eat logs a meal as a photo in two taps and shows the day as a collage, without counting calories. It also tracks drinks and water. ^{[11], [12], [13]}

Full access requires SHYE Premium after a 7-day free trial. ^[11]
