01 · frequently asked
how accurate is the meal analysis?
the app provides nutritional estimates based on your meal descriptions, photos, and voice input. accuracy varies with portion sizes, cooking methods, and specific ingredients. for tighter tracking, add specific portions and ingredients when possible.
does my data sync across devices?
yes — when you Sign in with Apple, your data syncs securely via iCloud across all your Apple devices. make sure iCloud is enabled for better. in your device settings.
is there a subscription?
no. better. is free, forever. no subscription, no in-app purchase, no premium tier. the app is supported by a small banner ad and an occasional full-screen ad between meal estimates.
how do I use voice input for meals?
when adding a meal, tap the microphone icon and describe your meal naturally — e.g., "I had a grilled chicken breast with steamed broccoli and brown rice for lunch." the app analyses your description and estimates the nutrition. the audio is transcribed on-device by Apple Speech; only the resulting text leaves your phone.

in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, you'll see a consent form on first launch. you can change your choice any time from Settings → Ad preferences → Manage ads consent. iOS App Tracking Transparency is also respected — if you deny tracking, you'll see non-personalized ads only.
