Kygo now imports nutrition data from any app that writes to Apple Health which includes Cronometer, MyFitnessPal, Lose It, whatever you use. 39 new dietary metrics flow directly into your correlations without changing how you track.


Voice logging accuracy hit 100% on a strict test suite, photo logging got a full rebuild, and the correlation engine got its biggest quality pass yet.


Here's everything that shipped since the last update.


Growth Update

Downloads are up to over 250 a month and growing. Website traffic continues to climb. The research content and free tools on the site the HRV Factor Explorer, wearable accuracy comparisons, step count accuracy data keep bringing people in organically. Communities on Reddit have been the biggest driver, with posts getting real engagement across r/OuraRing, r/QuantifiedSelf, r/Biohackers, r/Garmin, and r/Fitbit.


What's been most encouraging is the type of engagement. People aren't just downloading the app they're logging consistently, running experiments, and sending feedback that directly shapes what gets built next. That feedback loop is the whole reason this works.


Apple Health Nutrition Import - The Big One

This is the feature I've been most excited to ship. If you already log food in another app whether it's Cronometer, MyFitnessPal, Lose It, or anything else that syncs to Apple Health Kygo now pulls those daily nutrition totals in automatically. 39 new dietary metrics, all flowing into your stats and correlations.


The idea is simple: you shouldn't have to abandon your existing logging workflow to get correlations between what you eat and how your body responds. Keep using whatever food app you like. Kygo grabs the data from Apple Health and does the analysis layer on top.


Each source gets its own section on the Today screen. If you're using multiple food apps or want to exclude one, you can swipe to hide any source you don't want counted and swipe again to bring it back. Full control over what gets included.


There's a one time prompt when you first open the update asking if you want to enable nutrition import. If you're already connected to Apple Health for wearable data, your existing permissions stay exactly the same.

Ready to see how your existing food data connects to your biometrics? Kygo pulls it all together automatically.


Background Auto-Sync

This one is less flashy but you'll feel it immediately. Apple Health data now syncs in the background the moment your wearable writes new data. Steps, sleep, workouts, heart rate, HRV, and now nutrition all updating without you opening the app or pulling to refresh.


There's also a new Sync Activity card in Settings that shows the last sync time per device with a manual re-sync button if you ever need it.


Food Logging Accuracy

Voice logging hit 100% accuracy on a strict 150-item test suite. This covers multi-food entries, conversational preamble ("so this morning I had..."), unusually long inputs, and weird phrasings that used to trip things up. The previous suite was looser and scored 87% the new benchmark is significantly harder and it's passing clean.


Photo logging got a full rebuild. Label OCR now pulls the complete nutrient set fiber, added sugars, sodium, the works. Prepared meals like pizza, birria, or cheesecake used to return generic placeholder matches. Now they route through a smarter pipeline and return much more accurate results.


The AI model powering text parsing switched to a lighter, faster variant. The difference is noticeable food logging just feels snappier across the board.


Two quality-of-life additions here: if the logging ever has a temporary hiccup, you now get a "tap to retry" button instead of a silent failure. And if a food truly can't be found in any database, there's a custom entry screen where you can manually enter macros and micros.


Correlations - Major Quality Pass

The correlation engine got a significant cleanup. The new Daily Pulse card on the correlations screen shows how today's inputs are tracking against your established patterns in real time. Foods to Watch surfaces specific foods that are showing correlations with how you feel it's one of those features where the value clicks immediately when you see your own data in it.


On the data quality side: duplicate factors from slight name differences (like "Greek Yogurt" and "greek yogurt, plain") are now merged. Zero-threshold false positives things like "0 mg of X correlates with Y" — are filtered out. WHOOP recovery, strain, and sleep data now feed into the correlation engine properly alongside Oura, Apple Watch, Garmin, and Fitbit.


Experiment thresholds now persist between sessions, and pinned experiments flag when a pattern shifts. If you're running personal nutrition experiments with Kygo, the data is more reliable and more actionable than it's ever been.


Food Detail Redesign

The FoodDetailScreen got a visual overhaul. There's a hero nutrition card at the top with unified macro and micro sections below. It's cleaner, faster to scan, and makes it easier to understand what's in the food you just logged.


FAQ and Help Redesign

The FAQ section was rewritten for accuracy and now includes category filters and per-question icons so you can actually find what you're looking for. The Help & Feedback hub was redesigned to match the rest of the app's design system cleaner contact form, better organization.


What's Next

Android Health Connect integration is the next major milestone. Beyond that, continued work on correlation accuracy and the image-based logging pipeline. More every week.
