Food & macro tracker

A free calorie trackerfor food and macros,built in the UK.

Go Gym is a food tracker app for the UK that keeps the useful parts and drops the clutter. It works as a calorie tracker and a macro tracker in one: log a meal with barcode scanning, see calories and a macro breakdown, and check your daily totals at a glance. No subscription to count your own food.

What the food tracker does

Log a meal, see calories and macros, move on.

Most diet apps make calorie tracking feel like data entry. Go Gym is built to be quick: add what you ate, get an honest daily total, and get on with your day.

  • 01

    Fast meal logging

    Add a meal in a few taps. Reuse recent foods and saved meals so logging breakfast or your usual lunch takes seconds, not minutes.

  • 02

    Barcode scanning

    Scan the barcode on a packet to pull in the food and its nutrition, then adjust the portion. Quicker than typing out every item by hand.

  • 03

    Calorie tracking

    See calories per food and a running daily total against your target, so you know where you stand without doing the maths yourself.

  • 04

    Macro breakdown

    Track protein, carbs, and fat alongside calories. A clear macro breakdown helps if you are eating for fat loss, maintenance, or muscle gain.

Built around UK food

Foods and barcodes that match a UK shop.

A lot of calorie trackers were built for the US first, so you end up searching for products that are not on the shelves here and guessing at portions in unfamiliar units. Go Gym is built in the UK with UK eating in mind, so barcode scanning and food search line up with what you actually buy.

Scan a packet from a UK supermarket, confirm the portion, and the calories and macros are logged. When something is not in the database you can add it once and reuse it, so your common foods get faster to log over time.

Free, with no paywall

Calorie and macro tracking stays free.

Several well-known food trackers have moved core features behind a subscription. Barcode scanning, once free, now sits behind a paywall in some of them. Go Gym takes the opposite approach: the food tracker is free, including barcode scanning, calorie tracking, and the macro breakdown.

Nothing about logging your own food is capped. Paid plans only ever add bonus content on top, such as a no-ads tier and PT-approved workout programmes. If you never pay a penny, you still get a complete food and macro tracker.

FAQ

Common questions

Can I track calories and macros?

Yes. Go Gym includes food logging with barcode scanning, calorie tracking, and macro breakdowns designed to be fast and simple, without the clutter of dedicated diet apps.

Is Go Gym free to use?

Yes. The core app is free and nothing is capped, so you can log workouts, food, habits, and weight, and create as many workouts, habits, and routines as you want. Paid plans only add bonus content on top, such as a no-ads tier and PT-approved workout programmes from coaches, with a generous set of those free too. You will never need to pay to track your own training.

Is Go Gym for beginners?

Absolutely. If you want one place to log workouts, meals, habits, and weight, without learning four different apps, Go Gym is built for you. Start with the basics and grow into advanced tracking.

Is my data private, and can I export it?

Your data is yours. Go Gym does not paywall access to your own logs, and you can export your food, weight, and workout history. We are a UK-first app and handle your data in line with UK GDPR. See our Privacy Policy for the full detail on what we store and why.

Do I have to track everything, or can I start small?

Start as small as you like. Many people begin with just weigh-ins and workouts, then add food logging and a couple of daily habits once the routine feels automatic. Because workouts, food, habits, and weight all live in one app, you can layer in more tracking whenever you are ready without switching tools.

Part of the all-in-one

Food sits next to the rest of your training.

Food tracking is most useful when it is not stuck in its own app. In Go Gym, what you eat lives alongside your workouts, habits, and weight, so a weekly review shows the full picture instead of four disconnected screens.
