Hi all! Since my last post I’ve been hard at work on Manatee Fitness. I polished the core functionality and ended up feature creeping myself. I wasn’t intending to add weight tracking or goal calculations but once I got into a groove I just kept going.

The most exciting part is that I finally have a real icon!

Beyond that, I figured out how to build an APK via github actions so now anyone willing to give the app a try is able to easily download and install it! I welcome any feedback from users. One important thing to keep in mind before trying it out is that it is currently focused on foods available in the US. I want to eventually expand the scope to more countries but I’ll get to that once I have a stable release.

I’m also happy to take any contributions from the community! I have issues written up for all the bugs and new features on my current roadmap to the first stable release.

And finally, I want to give a shoutout to the 2 existing foss apps in this space that I know of:

Waistline

Energize

My competitive drive to one up them is a huge reason I made as much progress on Manatee Fitness as I have.

        Apologies: brain fart on my end.

        For anyone using Obtainium: you’ll have to enable “include prereleases” when adding manatee-fitness in order for Obtainium to find the apk

      That’s me! I’ve been looking for exactly something like this but don’t have the knowledge to build from source.
