Description

Finally, an app that understands YOUR kidney disease. Managing a kidney diet is overwhelming. Every food label feels like a puzzle. Generic nutrition apps don't understand phosphorus additives, potassium limits, or why your dietary needs are completely different from someone at a different CKD stage. KidneyPal changes everything. PERSONALIZED TO YOUR CONDITION Tell us your kidney condition—CKD stage, dialysis status, kidney stones—and KidneyPal sets personalized daily limits for sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and protein tailored specifically to you. AI-POWERED FOOD SCANNING Snap a photo of any meal or nutrition label. Our AI instantly analyzes it and gives you a kidney safety score based on YOUR limits—including hidden phosphorus additives that other apps miss. Get smart swap suggestions to make any meal safer, and chat with the AI to ask questions about what you just scanned. LOG MEALS YOUR WAY Scan photos, use voice or text quick-logging, browse our recipe library, or enter nutrients manually. Every method automatically tracks fluids too. No more juggling multiple apps. KIDNEY-SAFE RECIPE LIBRARY Browse delicious recipes with kidney safety scores and complete nutritional breakdowns. Each recipe shows exactly why it's safe for your kidneys, with ingredient-level guidance. Have questions? Chat directly with any recipe to get instant, personalized answers. IMPORT ANY RECIPE Found a recipe online you want to try? Just paste the URL and KidneyPal instantly analyzes it for your kidney diet — giving you a safety score and complete nutritional breakdown before you cook. SEE YOUR PROGRESS Track nutrient trends over time with beautiful charts. See your good days vs. bad days at a glance. Build streaks to stay motivated. When it's time for your doctor visit, export a complete report to share with your care team. BUILT FOR REAL PEOPLE Whether you're newly diagnosed with CKD, managing advanced kidney disease, on dialysis, or preventing kidney stones—KidneyPal meets you where you are. --- Download free and finally feel confident about what you're eating.

  • Making a Difference!

    I’ve been using this app for 90 days and it’s made a difference in my husband’s numbers! He has Stage 2 CKD. The selection of recipes, the ability to import recipes from other sites (such as DaVita) and to create my own recipes is great. The app is easy and straightforward. I’m so grateful to the developers for creating this tool.

  • Absolutely indispensable

    This is my third time reviewing, so I feel like a lunatic, but if I had waited a week or so, instead of nit-picking about trivial things, this is the review I would give: this app has become an indispensable tool to stay 3A for as long as possible. I tried reading books that used complicated calculations for everything you eat, and they all disagree on what you can and can't eat--which would basically be water and twigs, according to some of these authors--but this app does all the calculations for me, and I'm learning quickly that I can eat most foods (albeit, very little animal protein), depending on what else I have eaten that day. Almost as importantly, I'm discovering what limits I have--4 oz of chicken put me over my protein allowance, so apparently, I've been eating way too much protein. I've also been drinking *too much* water, which surprised me. I'm donating the books I bought to a clinic because not only were the calculations insanely complicated--and I'm a math-phobe--the recipes are depressingly bad, as well as their lengthy list of "verboten" foods, when in fact, they aren't verboten, it's just all a matter of perhaps eating smaller amounts and balancing that with whatever else you eat on that day, which this app makes super easy to figure out. I only wish my nephrologist had been as helpful as this app. As far as negatives? I still wish they used calories instead of kilojoules, but I've bookmarked a converter online, so it's a very small inconvenience. Yes, compared to some apps, this one might be a bit pricey looking at first, but it's well worth the money!

  • Not liking this

    Manually enter food. No numbers for sodium etc filling in and tracking.

  • Horrible app

    By cbenn5272
    I have CKD and ingredients esp protein are very important part of my health. I scanned a container of high protein yogurt this am and the ingredients kidney pal listed were way off. It is important I do not exceed my protein limit but with inaccurate info I could easily non knowing double my limit

  • Doesn’t Add Up !!!

    This app must be consistent and 90% correct but afraid to rely on it comparing foods with Yuka there are major screw ups. Scanner sucks!! Doesn’t list hidden ingredients, often contradictory! And mostly, can’t rely on this with CKD3B. I already paid but will dispute. That’s why there is no free trial. Research this app and those of you please use caution on replying on it . Use Yuka for free the scanner works on all bar codes unlike Kidney pal. I’m getting kidney Safe when it isn’t according to Yuka scanner. Just some thoughts, if kidney function gets worse from using this App they better lawyer up !

  • Way too inaccurate

    By Balisinger
    The ap consistently misidentifies food. It will recognize pineapple as a fish filet. Rainbow trout as a pork chop. Cauliflower as Mac and cheese. It consistently overestimates salt and other problems in home cooked food and seems to have no way of correcting the misconceptions. Someone with CKD is trying to manage those, constantly checking labels, choosing alternatives to minimize sodium, phosphates etc, but the ap does not consider this. I thought at least it might help with eating out, but the ap only works with a live internet connection unavailable in restaurants. You cannot even take a photo to be analyzed when you get home. This is so inaccurate I do not want to use it. And they charge you a fee to use it.

  • Fast food options

    By sofisksksks
    Noticed some Taco Bell foods are kidney safe vs others! Would like to see safer fast food alternatives for specific fast food restaurants. I am a nephrology nurse practitioner. Significant portion of the population I deal with rely on fast food occasionally due to cost/energy constraints
