Description
Arrow is the #1 workout and nutrition tracker built for changing your body. Log your lifts, meals, and weight in one app, get calorie and macro targets that adapt to your real results, and see whether training and diet are actually adding up, whether you're cutting, bulking, or just looking to maintain.
TRAINING AND NUTRITION IN ONE LOOP
Changing your body is one problem, not two. Your lifts create the stimulus, your food decides what your body does with it, and your weight trend tells you whether the plan is working. Most apps track one piece. Arrow connects all three.

- Adaptive TDEE: Arrow estimates your real daily energy expenditure from your weigh-ins and food log, not just a formula, and keeps your calorie and macro targets adjusted as your body responds
- Scale Weight vs. Trend Weight: every weigh-in is plotted against a rolling trend, so you can tell a water swing from true gain or loss before you change your plan
- Oil detection: if a scanned meal was likely cooked in oil, Arrow asks before you log, so hidden calories don't slip past your numbers
- Arrow Score: one number built from Strength (PRs and volume), Nutrition (calories, macros, weigh-ins), and Consistency (workouts and meal logs), weighted for your goal. A cut and a bulk are scored differently.
- Estimated daily deficit or surplus and a four-week projection
- Arrow Coach flags when a sudden scale jump or drop is likely water, not fat
NUTRITION TRACKING THAT'S FAST AND HONEST
- Smart Scan: photograph your plate and get the foods, calories, and macros
- Describe a meal in plain words or by voice, scan a barcode, or look it up in the database
- Heads Up before you log a scanned meal, and a meal score when you do
- Edit any target yourself. Arrow never locks you into its numbers.
- Recent foods, saved meals, custom foods, and copy-a-previous-day for meals you eat on repeat
- Optional meal and post-workout reminders
