Capture → remember → repeat

Remember the meals worth repeating.

A food diary is a record of what you ate and the details you want to remember. Tablumi lets you distinguish decided meals from eaten ones, with optional photos, cost, ratings and notes. It is local-first, with optional private iCloud sync. Taking an ordinary diary photo does not send it to cloud AI, and you do not need a nutrition estimate to keep a useful entry.

Record only the details that help

A meal name may be enough. Add the cost if you want to remember spending, a rating if you want to find favorites, or a note about what you would change next time. For a meal made up of several dishes, keeping them together avoids treating each item as a separate occasion.

A photo does not have to become an AI request

Normal photo recording uses local image processing. Automatic background removal is a setting for newly captured or reselected diary photos; changing it does not restyle your existing entries. You can keep a full photo instead. The optional meal-recognition tool is a different workflow that asks for cloud-processing permission.

Keep a history you can understand

A decided meal remains distinct from an eaten meal until you record it as eaten. Local storage is the default, while optional iCloud sync uses your private CloudKit database. Deleting a photo, deleting app data and restoring a purchase are different actions; consult the deletion guide before removing data you may need.

Useful moments to try it

  • Remember the lunch you liked enough to order again.
  • Keep a visual record without turning every meal into calorie accounting.
  • Look back at the cost, notes and ratings you chose to record.

Questions you may have

Do I need cloud AI for a photo diary?

No. Ordinary photo recording and its local cutout workflow do not use cloud AI. Recognition is a separate optional feature.

Does the diary diagnose eating patterns?

No. Records and summaries describe the information you entered. They are not a diagnosis or a substitute for professional advice.
