Dish journal app for iPhone
You loved the meal last time, but what did you actually order? Aftertaste keeps a record of every dish you eat out. Snap a photo, rate it with one tap and add a quick note — so next time you order what you loved instead of guessing.
Features
01
Take a photo mid-meal, give your verdict with one tap — Loved it, Fine or Never again — and add a note like “ask for it extra peppery”. Restaurants are created automatically as you go.
02
Every restaurant page starts with Order again. Browse a filterable photo grid, see everywhere you’ve eaten on a map, and keep a wish list of dishes you want to try.
03
No accounts, no feeds and no star ratings from strangers. Every dish, photo and note stays on your iPhone — the App Store privacy label says “Data Not Collected”.

FAQs
What is Aftertaste?

Review apps rate the place. Aftertaste tracks the dish, using only your own opinion.
Do I need an account?
No. Open the app and start logging.
What devices does it work on?
It works on iPhone with iOS 17 or later, Macs with Apple silicon running macOS 14 or later, and Apple Vision Pro with visionOS 1 or later.
How do I rate a dish?
One tap: Loved it, Fine or Never again.
Do I have to add a restaurant first?
No. Restaurants are created automatically as you log dishes.
Can I add notes?

How do I restore my purchase on a new device?
Tap Restore Purchases in the app, signed in with the same Apple ID.
Made with care
We kept going back to our favourite restaurants and forgetting which dish we’d loved, so we built an app to remember it for us.
