MacroChef 1.0.9

Fixes

• First launch no longer gets stuck on the backup screen. On a fresh install with no existing data and no backup, the app previously showed a "Select backup file" screen with no way to continue. There is now a Start fresh option, and the screen explains that restoring is optional when no backup was found.

MacroChef 1.0.8

What’s new

• Make PayPal, Wise, and Ko-fi immediately visible in the in-app Support screen.
• Update the InstaPay donation QR to MariBank.

MacroChef 1.0.6

What’s new

• Add optional Support MacroChef donations via SeaBank/InstaPay and PayPal.
• Add a Settings About section with privacy, licenses, and credits.
• Improve Android release compliance and AI-recipe reporting.

MacroChef 1.0.5

Refreshed branding: the chef-hat mark is now blue, and the launcher icon wraps the hat in a segmented macro tricolor ring (protein / carb / fat). No functional changes.

MacroChef v1.0.4

MacroChef 1.0.4

New

• Per-ingredient source badges in the recipe nutrition breakdown so you can see where each macro came from (USDA / local pack / AI estimate).
• Voice logging announces the macro source when you log a food hands-free.
• Local nutrition pack results now surface in the food-search dropdown, alongside online sources.

Fixes

• Multi-word food-search queries now match real USDA names correctly (RAG prefilter fix).
• Resolved an onnxruntime conflict that could stop the on-device voice engine from loading.

This is the app APK. The Nutrition Pack and Voice Pack are downloaded separately in-app (Settings → Food Data / Voice).

MacroChef v1.0.3

Reliability release.

What's new

• Hands-free cooking no longer hangs indefinitely on "Preparing cooking session…". The voice engine load is now time-bounded (surfaces a retryable error if it stalls), the in-cook AI call is time-bounded too, and the error screen reports the failure reason.
• Faster repeat cook sessions (the voice engine is loaded once and reused; also warms up in the background when you open a recipe).

MacroChef v1.0.2

Performance release.

What's new

• Hands-free cooking starts much faster. The on-device voice engine (~234 MB of Whisper + TTS models) is now loaded once per app run and reused across cook sessions instead of being reloaded every time — so repeat sessions start almost instantly. The engine also warms up in the background when you open a recipe, so the first cook doesn't wait on the load either. (Also fixes a background-isolate leak.)

Includes the v1.0.1 change: AI-dependent actions are gated on a usable AI provider.

MacroChef v1.0.1

Maintenance release.

What's new

• AI-dependent actions (hands-free cooking, recipe generation, AI training plan) are now gated on a usable AI provider — cloud provider with an API key, or the on-device model downloaded. When none is configured they show a clear "Set up an AI provider in Settings" hint instead of failing or hanging.

Setup after install (unchanged)

• Download the Voice Pack (~266 MB) in Settings → Voice for hands-free cooking.
• Pick an AI provider (Claude/OpenAI/Gemini/Groq + key, or the on-device local model) in Settings → AI Provider.
• Optional offline Nutrition Pack on the nutrition-pack-v1 release.

MacroChef v1.0.0

First public release of MacroChef — a Flutter macro/calorie tracker with hands-free, on-device voice cooking.

• Hands-free cooking mode (on-device sherpa-onnx voice)

Setup after install

• The Voice Pack (~266 MB, required for hands-free cooking) downloads in-app from Settings → Voice (assets hosted on the voice-pack-v1 release).

• Pick an AI provider (Claude/OpenAI/Gemini/Groq with your key, or the on-device local model) in Settings → AI Provider.
