Enjoy a neat app for monitoring the calories burned during gym hours or regular activities
A lot of people are concerned nowadays about their lifestyle and especially those who follow a diet pay a lot of attention to their nutrition in order to maintain their health.

One of the most important parameters to look for from this perspective is the amount of calories that are burned after physical exercise.

For anyone who wants to monitor these parameters and log them on a daily basis, a specialized tool might help and Windows Phone users can try an app that goes by the name of All About Calories.

Uncomplicated GUI, with a functional design

The looks of this utility are simple, without any appealing graphics, but with an intuitive and easy to use layout. The background images are pretty nice, while the other elements of graphical design have a decent appearance.

The navigation inside the app's various sections and going through all its lists doesn't involve any delays and everything is displayed promptly. You can easily get to the main functions of the utility as they conveniently placed, while the content is shown in a clean and easy to read way.

The battery depletes fast if the utility is running for a couple of hours, as it has a massive power consumption.
