The Noms app—a visual food diary with artificial intelligence features—is gaining popularity on social media. Unlike traditional food trackers, it displays meals not as a table but as a “virtual table” or visual food diary: users take photos of their meals, and the app turns them into stickers and estimates calories, protein, fat, and carbs.
Judging by the pages on the App Store and Google Play, Noms was developed by Vietnamese developer Dat Pham / Phạm Tiến Đạt. On Google Play, the developer’s profile lists Vietnam, and on the App Store page, Dat Pham is also listed as the provider.
The main feature of Noms isn’t so much the calorie-counting function itself as it is the design. The app turns meals into a visual diary: food is displayed as a set of “stickers,” and users can view a meal calendar, save their history, create video summaries, and share cards on social media.
The AI feature works via photos: the user takes a picture of a dish, and the model estimates the calories, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. The app description specifically notes that Noms can automatically calculate nutritional values and save the history in the calendar.
However, the app cannot be considered a completely free service with no restrictions. It can be downloaded for free, but the App Store lists in-app purchases, and the description mentions a PRO subscription and ads for free users regarding social features. Google Play also lists in-app purchases.
For the consumer AI app market, Noms is interesting because it transforms food tracking from a “boring diary” format into a game and visual content experience. This reflects a broader trend: AI services are trying not just to process data, but to make everyday habits more understandable, engaging, and social.
The “Silpo” chain has added the ability to purchase tickets for concerts, performances, museums, and other events to its mobile app, the company’s press service reported.
The “Experience Box Office” section is located on the app’s home screen and in “My Account”; it features both partner events and those organized by Silpo, including ‘Festirudy’ and “Bragary’s Chicken Circus.” Events can be filtered by city, date, and category, and purchased tickets will be sent to the user’s email.
The press service emphasized that the “Silpo” chain has become the first retailer in Ukraine to integrate such functionality directly into its app.
Silpo-Food LLC, which operates the Silpo chain, was established in early August 2016. According to information on the website, the chain operates 310 supermarkets in 60 cities across Ukraine and four Le Silpo delicatessens: in Kyiv, Dnipro, Kharkiv, and Odesa.
The founder of the LLC is Retail Capital, a closed-end, non-diversified venture corporate investment fund (100%, Kyiv). The ultimate beneficiary is Volodymyr Kostelman.
Silpo-Food’s revenue for 2025 increased by 13.97% compared to 2024, reaching UAH 106.013 billion, while net profit amounted to UAH 1.205 billion, compared to UAH 154.1 million for the same period the previous year.
It is part of the Fozzy Group, a commercial and industrial group with more than 825 retail outlets throughout the country. The company operates retail chains of various formats: Silpo supermarkets, Fozzy wholesale hypermarkets, Fora neighborhood stores, Thrash! discounters, Bila Romashka pharmacy supermarkets, and E-ZOO pet stores.
