- TYTrack your calories easily by saying what you ate2024 · calorio.xyz · ▲17
Hi guys, I created this app to solve one of my own problems: I found calorie tracking to be a real pain.

This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training.
