Awesome dieting App. I’ve tried so many Apps over the years but none of them worked. Except for this one!I lost 8 kg, adapted my goals to weight maintenance for a bit, then made the goal of losing 2kg over 2weeks, adapted again for slower weight loss over a 3 month period. Informative in a practical way about the role of water and overnight fasting in weight loss and helps you to incorporate these goals in your daily goals. I love my raccoon but the tragic thing is its finances are managed by robots. Really hard to get any response to billing queries. That’s why it loses one star.

Your update makes the interface unintuitive and forces the AI. Uninstalled and started another tracker. I’ve been using bitepal for a month now, and it is a place to track your calories only. Simple as that. The AI is incredibly off base and pointless. Tbh, i’d like to see it gone and more focus on storing data of pre-counted and user uploaded food (like myfitnesspal). Whenever I change the serving size (because i’ve had 2 servings based on the back of the package) it can’t do the math. 1 serving is fine, example: (157cals) from the image. But as soon as i say 2 servings, it spits out 900+ calories. Obviously it’s only 314. This app needs to be heavily monitored and manually maintained. Sometimes it won’t even load properly and if you’re using an app to calorie count, obviously your attention isn’t fabulous. Overall, it is cute and somewhat simple. I am considering going back to myfitnesspal purely because it’s go such an exhaustive list of accurate user data. AI is hindering the app and putting gullible users at risk in their weight loss journey.

While bite pal has some cute visuals the UI, AI detection, and manual adding is lacking immensely.The visuals: cute and charming but are rarely, if ever, updated. The customisation is cute but many of the items you adorn your raccoon with are ill fitting or just plain don't match the vibe.The AI detection: Wildly inaccurate at worst and acceptable at best. Certain foods work better like ordering from a chain restaurant and salads or full plates with very simple ingredients. It works but only if you eat certain things.Custom entries:When entering custom amounts or ingredients it works well for American or universal ingredients that are similar or shared. It does not have a very wide range of ingredients from Australia specifically so certain nutrition is inaccurate there as well. (Example: nuttelex is a butter alternative but it consistently thinks that it's got sugar added to it but it does not)How I'd like to see it fixed:Being able to save recipes or custom entries in a recipe book or something. Literally anything to keep them for longer than a few days in the recent tab.Update visuals! I'm on day 116 of my streak and I have almost everything unlocked.Update whatever AI detection system is used. Nobody is eating just one thing at a time most of the time. I want to scan multiple labels and calculate more easily. Bonus yuck:The use of AI songs in advertising is also a massive negative for me. I think it's freaky and unsettling, you couldn't just hire a small-time artist? How lame and gross. I can understand ai usage for calculation and detection but creative content should be human made.

I was sceptical at first as I’ve tried it all and every diet raves how great it is But having Bitepal was educational as well as supportive . When I say educational I mean the calorie counter is a lifesaver with a quick photo of what you want to eat it gives you a real time calorie count so your not necessarily always depriving your self of that small chocolate but you are aware of how many calories it has and you work it into your daily calorie count.This is the first diet I haven’t felt like I cant eat anything good. I’m learning it’s not about depriving yourself but more about being aware of what calories you should be consuming and staying under that amount . I’m 20 days in and 5kilos down . I have joined in having birthday cake on a special occasion Guilt free I have trained my body to fast for 16 hrs a day ( seams daunting but tbh I’m asleep for a massive chunk of that time ) this seams to be the sweet spot for me . This is a realistic supportive app . If you are eating too much in a small amount of time your raccoon lets you know without making you feel bad . Try it
