Chompass review

Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Chompass is a free, open-source calorie and macro tracker for people who want food logging and progress tracking on Android or in a browser. It supports photo, voice, barcode, text, and manual entry, along with saved meals, favorites, and multi-ingredient recipes. Weight and body-fat tracking add progress charts, while diary and body-metrics import and export support data portability. With no account requirement and local-first data storage, it is geared toward individuals who want control over their records rather than a guided weight-loss program.

Food entry is broader than a basic text diary: barcode lookup uses Open Food Facts and supports offline caching, and Chompass also offers AI food analysis and an AI Coach chat. Those AI features use a provider key supplied by the user; Android optionally supports on-device AI for food analysis. The app itself is described as free, though optional AI providers may charge separately. Saved recipes and meals help with repeat logging, but meal planning is not part of the documented feature set, so people looking for structured menus should consider another app.

For health data, Android can synchronize activity and health information through Health Connect; WebDAV is also among the listed integrations. The platform mix is Android and web, with no iOS platform listed. Documentation is the stated support channel, which suits users comfortable consulting written guidance but may not meet the needs of someone seeking direct support. Chompass is a good fit for solo users who value open-source software, varied logging methods, and exportable records; it is less suited to people who want meal plans, broad device syncing, or AI features without managing a provider key.
