Kidney Pal: Renal Diet Tracker4.47.0 - App Store

Finally, an app that understands YOUR kidney disease.

Managing a kidney diet is overwhelming. Every food label feels like a puzzle. Generic nutrition apps don't understand phosphorus additives, potassium limits, or why your dietary needs are completely different from someone at a different CKD stage.

KidneyPal changes everything.

PERSONALIZED TO YOUR CONDITION
Tell us your kidney condition-CKD stage, dialysis status, kidney stones-and KidneyPal sets personalized daily limits for sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and protein tailored specifically to you.

AI-POWERED FOOD SCANNING
Snap a photo of any meal or nutrition label. Our AI instantly analyzes it and gives you a kidney safety score based on YOUR limits-including hidden phosphorus additives that other apps miss. Get smart swap suggestions to make any meal safer, and chat with the AI to ask questions about what you just scanned.

LOG MEALS YOUR WAY
Scan photos, use voice or text quick-logging, browse our recipe library, or enter nutrients manually. Every method automatically tracks fluids too. No more juggling multiple apps.

KIDNEY-SAFE RECIPE LIBRARY
Browse delicious recipes with kidney safety scores and complete nutritional breakdowns. Each recipe shows exactly why it's safe for your kidneys, with ingredient-level guidance. Have questions? Chat directly with any recipe to get instant, personalized answers.

IMPORT ANY RECIPE
Found a recipe online you want to try? Just paste the URL and KidneyPal instantly analyzes it for your kidney diet - giving you a safety score and complete nutritional breakdown before you cook.

SEE YOUR PROGRESS
Track nutrient trends over time with beautiful charts. See your good days vs. bad days at a glance. Build streaks to stay motivated. When it's time for your doctor visit, export a complete report to share with your care team.

BUILT FOR REAL PEOPLE
Whether you're newly diagnosed with CKD, managing advanced kidney disease, on dialysis, or preventing kidney stones-KidneyPal meets you where you are.
