What it is

Meal Ark is a meal-planning and nutrition app for creating personalized plans, logging food, finding recipes, and organizing groceries. Recommendations can use health goals, calorie and macro targets, dietary preferences, allergies, favorite cuisines, budget, and preferences for repeating meals. Food logging supports image and barcode scanning, voice search, and text search, with tracking for calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat, and nutrition trends. Recipes include nutrition information and step-by-step instructions, and the AI Cooking Assistant answers cooking questions. Pantry Chef suggests recipes from ingredients already available. Grocery lists are generated from meal plans and recipes while accounting for pantry items. Meal Ark runs on Android, iOS, and the web, with plans covering up to seven days. The free Basic plan limits daily generation and saving, image scans, customization, and excludes weekly planning and smart grocery lists. Premium costs $49.99 a year and adds weekly plans, advanced customization, tracking, printable grocery lists, and priority support.
