Nutrient Sync

Nutrient Sync is an iOS Shortcut I made to get around the privacy concerns and subscription based focus of most calorie tracking apps. This utilizes your iCloud Drive to store data and iOS Health to sync the data.

Current Version

Version 0.1.1

Install

In order to utilize Nutrient Sync, you must add these to Shortcuts to your library:

• Nutrient Sync (To run Nutrient Sync)
• libNutrientSync (A library of functions that Nutrient Sync is dependent on.)

On the first run, it will create a file in /iCloud Drive/Shortcuts/ called nutrientsync-setup.txt and a folder called Nutrient Sync. Inside of the Nutrient Sync folder are two folders named Food and Drink.

Any saved items you create with Nutrient Sync will be saved in Food or Drink when you specify what type it is. When you use the Load Saved Item option, you will need to navigate to those folders when it prompts you.
