Description
If you've been advised to restrict potassium intake because you have kidney disease or are on potassium-retaining medications, or you wish to increase intake to help lower high blood pressure or to replace potassium lost as a result of vomiting or diarrhea or using thiazide or loop diuretics, this app can help you.
Set your target daily potassium intake based on the information provided in the app derived from the USDA and US HHS Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025 or as advised by your healthcare provider. You can change this target at any time (see App Preview 1).
Record the foods & drinks and amounts you consume using the barcode scanner (if in the US where potassium content is required on the Nutrition Facts label), speech recognition, by favoriting foods, or using Search and using the serving sizes provided (see App Preview 2). The serving sizes are mainly those suggested by USDA Food Data Central, but can be changed at any time. Your progress towards your target daily intake will be shown on the dashboard in real-time.
You can also view your progress over time on the Month view dashboard, and export food diaries and potassium intake into a spreadsheet for your own information or to share with healthcare providers.
The app is curated and contains 325+ common (mainly healthy) foods and drinks and you can add your own branded and other foods and recipes at any time using the barcode scanner, voice recognition or the keyboard.
Apple's HealthKit functionality is integrated in the app's user interface so you can share data with Apple's Health app. You can also synchronize the app with all your Apple devices and First Line Medical Communications Ltd apps.
Also useful nutritional information via the Info tab (see App Preview 3).
The interface is intuitive to navigate, but you may find it useful to familiarise yourself with the full functionality of the app by touching the icons, words, and bars on every screen and swiping left and right on the Tracker screen.
The app does not require access to the Internet except when you use the barcode scanner for the first time for a food.

2.7.1
2023-03-20
New icon. Revised "How to use the app" instructions highlighting that the barcode scanner is only useful for users in the United States, which is the only country requiring manufacturers to list potassium content, and that users from other countries will find it more useful to find a best fit from the app's 325+ database of foods and beverages and can add in their own foods if they have a potassium content for them. 3 new App Previews have also been provided on the App Store to show how to set potassium target & preferred weight units (g or oz); how to record food & beverage intake using the barcode reader (if in the US), dictation, & search; and how to set preferred display for sodium content in food (%Target/serving, mg/100g or mg/oz, %Target/100g or %Target/oz)

Now with barcode scanner but please note that it will often be quicker to use the speech recognition and favoriting tool with the serving sizes and data already in the app database instead because many processed and branded foods do not provide potassium content in their nutritional information.

Now no need to add in amounts of food consumed unless they differ from the serving sizes provided by the app, in which case you can change the serving sizes provided as a one-off or for as long as you like. Also you no longer need to add your own branded or other foods not in the app database — instead you can add them in as a food called "potassium" with the potassium content provided on the packaging.

Rachael-tooo,
Difficult but helpful
It’s not a quick and easy app. To add coffee you say add new food. Enter coffee in name and if you google potassium in coffee, it’ll tell you the amount. About 49 mg per 100 mig of coffee. Most people will drink by the cup so 1 c. And so on. The interface could be easier.
I’d like to see them add a goal intake. My mom has renal trouble and needs her intake below 2000 per day. I should be able to set this do she sees in red when she goes over. Or at least the line would be lower. This would be a great feature.
Since this is the only app I’ve found, I’ll try to work with this. But I’m dealing with an 80 year old and hoping it’s not too difficult to teach her.

Useless application,
Does not let you input the amount of potassium per serving
Waisted money

Does NOT make counting potassium easier
I already have two problems with this app- 1)there are no beverages listed, and for a coffee drinker, I was not able to figure out how to add coffee in.
2) you must know the weight to EVERYTHING. I'm not sure why I paid $5. At least a google search automatically lets you choose some weight/measurement options. This app would be a lot better if there was a larger database of serving sizes/preparation methods aligned with the potassium count.

Better than nothing
Only positive I can say about this app is it’s convenient but it’s not very accurate when I compare with other nutritional source. I understand why they want payment up front. If not, nobody would buy it. I will never pay anything in advance again for apps.
Karen1755,
Poor app
This app is disorganized and thus not at all helpful. I look up a food, e.g. lobster, select it and get a spiel of nutritional info that does not include potassium. I would need to go back to the full list to get that. There is no ability to change the amount of food used to tell you the amount of potassium. I don’t happen to think in grams. I also consider different quantities of food a normal amount for different foods. $5 wasted!!!!!!
Suzy kayo,
Very difficult to figure out and use
I was hoping to use this to find potassium content conveniently but I think googling is faster. Wasted my money.
Gushy muscat,
Useless
First: Graphics are pretty but hard to read. Use greater contrast in text.
Second: When an item is “searched”, eg “bread” several choices are listed but the app only supplies potassium for one of those items so why tease us wi 4 other choices.
Third: Not at all intuitive to use. Who would know to tap on “count” to get to other instructions. Very confusing to use.

Useless
OK, it says it rates only 250 foods but it does not include beverages including coffee which has about 60 MG of potassium in a 6 oz cup. How am I supposed to track my daily consumption of potassium if many items are not included. Also, they list food such as spinach as acceptable whereas I have been told by my doctor to avoid spinach since it is high in potassium. I just wasted three dollars.
Jaldri,
Worlds worst app
This is straight up the most crappiest app out there. It is so disorganized it will make your head hurt. No scanner so you can not scan foods. $2.99 waist of money. I could go on but look at all the negative reviews and you will get the point.
Songbear20147,
No potassium counts
This app is a total waste of three dollars. There are no potassium counts to be found anywhere. Everything is set for 3 1/2 ounces and the only measures they provide is scores that don’t mean anything to the average person using this application. Buyer beware.
