Getting Started with FuelKit
FuelKit is a nutrition, recipe, and grocery tracker for you and your household. You log what you eat against a daily calorie and protein target, save the meals you actually cook, plan the week's dinners, and let the shopping list build itself from the plan.
Sign in
Go to fuelkit.app and sign in with your Google account. That's the whole account system — there is no separate FuelKit password. A short onboarding asks for the basics (name, body stats, and your calorie targets for different kinds of days) so the app can compute meaningful targets from day one. Everything can be changed later in Profile.
Install it as an app
FuelKit works in any browser, but it's built to live on your home screen:
- iPhone / iPad — open fuelkit.app in Safari, tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen.
- Android — open fuelkit.app in Chrome, tap the ⋮ menu, then Add to Home screen (or Install app).
- Desktop — Chrome and Edge show an install icon in the address bar.
Always install from fuelkit.app — if a permission prompt ever shows a strange pages.dev address, the app was installed from an old URL; delete that copy and re-add it from fuelkit.app.
After an update ships, an installed app can briefly keep showing the old version. Fully close it (swipe it away) and reopen to pick up the new one.
Find your way around
Five tabs along the bottom (or in the sidebar on a desktop-width screen):
- Today — your food log for the day: targets, what you've eaten, and quick ways to add more. This is where you'll spend most of your time. See Logging Food.
- Week — trends: each day vs. its target, averages, a 14-day calorie chart, and your weight log.
- Recipes — your saved meals and your food library. See Meals and Recipes.
- Plan — the week's dinner planner. What you plan here drives the shopping list.
- Shop — the household shopping list, built from the plan. See Household Grocery List.
Your name at the top opens Profile: personal details, targets, household and invites, API keys, data backup, and account deletion.
Works offline
Recent days are cached on your device, and anything you log while offline is queued and synced when you're back online. If a day ever shows "couldn't load," don't re-add food — the entries are safe on the server; the app just couldn't reach it yet.
