Activity Tracking Is Here: Calories Burned, Voice Logs, and Smarter Hydration

Food tracking tells you what is coming in. Activity tracking helps you understand what your body is doing with it.

CalorTracker now has a dedicated Activity page built around the movement data people actually use day to day: burned calories, active minutes, steps, distance, workout intensity, and simple descriptions of what happened.

Log Movement Your Way

Activity tracking should be fast enough to use when you are tired after a workout. CalorTracker supports three ways to log:

  • Manual logging: Enter calories burned and active minutes when you already have the number from a treadmill, bike, watch, or class summary.
  • AI text logging: Type natural notes like "walked 35 minutes after lunch", "ran 5 km", or "cardio workout, 390 calories".
  • Voice logging: Speak your activity out loud and let CalorTracker prepare an entry for review.

This keeps activity logging flexible. You can be precise when you have exact numbers, or quick when all you remember is what you did and roughly how long it lasted.

Burned Calories and Active Minutes

The Activity page focuses on two daily goals:

  1. Calories burned from activity.
  2. Active minutes completed during the day.

Steps, distance, and intensity are still useful, but they support the bigger picture. The goal is not to overload you with numbers. The goal is to make it easy to answer: "Did I move enough today?"

Smarter Hydration After Movement

One of the most useful parts of activity tracking is how it connects with hydration.

When you log movement, CalorTracker can adjust your effective water target based on active minutes and intensity. A light walk may barely change the day. A vigorous workout can add a stronger hydration bump and make it clearer that you should drink more than your normal baseline.

That means your water goal can respond to real behavior, not just a fixed number.

Review Before You Save

AI logging is helpful, but health data should still stay under your control. When CalorTracker analyzes an activity from text or voice, you can review the result before saving it. You can confirm the title, activity type, active minutes, intensity, calories burned, distance, and steps.

If the AI result is not quite right, edit it before it becomes part of your history.

Progress and Insights

Activity history now feeds into the broader CalorTracker experience. Your movement data can appear in:

  • Daily progress summaries
  • Historical progress reports
  • Smart Insights analysis
  • Activity-aware hydration summaries
  • Reminder and review flows

This makes it easier to spot patterns across food, water, and movement. For example, you might notice that higher-activity days also need better hydration, or that consistent active minutes line up with better adherence to your nutrition goals.

A Better Daily Health Picture

Nutrition, hydration, and activity are connected in real life, so they should feel connected in your tracker too. The new Activity page is designed to make movement visible without making it another complicated chore.

Open CalorTracker, tap Activity, and log what you did. Whether it was a full workout or a walk around the block, it counts.
