Loqma – Desi Calorie Tracker

Most calorie apps don't know what a paratha is. Loqma is a calorie and macro tracker built from the ground up for South Asian cuisine — Pakistani, Indian, and Bangladeshi food. Anda paratha, dal chawal, nihari, biryani, karahi, haleem, roti, aloo gosht, saag, samosas. Every dish your family cooks, properly understood. Not approximated from a Western equivalent. Not missing from the database. Actually there. ──────────────────────── WHY LOQMA EXISTS ──────────────────────── MyFitnessPal has 20 million foods. Search "anda paratha" and you get nothing useful. Search "biryani" and you get an American restaurant version with the wrong macros. Loqma was built specifically because desi food deserves accurate tracking — not guesswork. ──────────────────────── WHAT LOQMA DOES ──────────────────────── ▸ Calorie & Macro Tracking Log breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. See your daily calories, protein, carbs, and fat against personalised targets — updated live as you log. ▸ South Asian Food Database A curated, hand-verified database of desi dishes, built for accuracy. Anda Paratha (انڈہ پراٹھہ), Dal Chawal, Nihari, Haleem, Biryani, Karahi, Roti, Saag, Samosa, Qeema, Lassi, and more — with realistic Pakistani home-cooking portions, not Western restaurant estimates. ▸ Barcode Scanner Scan packaged food barcodes with your camera. Loqma checks Open Food Facts first, then uses Gemini AI as a fallback to identify products and pre-fill nutrition data automatically. ▸ Personalised Calorie Goals Answer 5 questions — your age, gender, height, weight, activity level, and goal — and Loqma calculates your TDEE using the Mifflin-St Jeor formula. Want to lose weight? Gain muscle? Maintain? Your daily targets update the moment you change any setting. ▸ Macro Breakdown Track protein, carbohydrates, and fat separately. Set your goals. See exactly where you are at any point in the day with animated progress bars that update instantly. ▸ Water Intake Tracker Log your water intake in one tap. Set a daily hydration goal. Get gentle reminders throughout the day so you actually hit it. ▸ Weekly Trends See your calorie intake across the last 7 days. Track your average protein. See which days you hit your goal. Understand your patterns so you can improve them. ▸ BMI & Ideal Weight Know your BMI, your BMR, your TDEE, and your ideal weight range — all calculated from your actual body data, not population averages. ──────────────────────── HONEST & PRIVATE ──────────────────────── No ads. No subscription required to use the core tracker. No account needed. Your food logs and body data live on your device only — we operate no servers. Loqma does not sell your data or share it with advertisers. The only external services Loqma contacts are Open Food Facts (when you scan a barcode) and Google Gemini AI (as a fallback when a barcode isn't found). Neither receives your name, weight, meal history, or any personal information. ──────────────────────── BUILT FOR ──────────────────────── ✓ Pakistanis tracking desi home cooking ✓ Indians logging South Asian meals accurately ✓ Anyone tired of calorie apps that don't know what ghee is ✓ People who want real macro targets based on their actual body — not generic population averages ✓ Anyone who values their privacy and doesn't want to hand over health data to an ad network ──────────────────────── PERMISSIONS ──────────────────────── Camera — for barcode scanning only. No photos are taken, stored, or transmitted. Notifications — for optional water intake reminders. Internet — to look up packaged food nutrition from Open Food Facts and Gemini AI. ──────────────────────── لُقمہ — the Urdu word for a single bite of food. That's what we're counting. Download Loqma. Start tracking the food you actually eat.
