App Description

App for logging the foods you eat, calculating and predicting calories. It makes that task quicker because it is so easy to use and incorporates artificial intelligence that recognizes the foods automatically.

You can:
- View the list of foods by day.
- View the number of calories and nutrients any day and the prediction for today.
- View suggestions of foods to eat today to achieve eating the calories that you want.
- View a line chart with calories (and their distribution in Carbohydrates, Fat and Proteins) and nutrients.
- Edit and add foods, meals and nutritional composition of foods.

Great for people that want to be healthier or follow a diet and for losing weight.

The app recognizes the food when you take a picture of it using a technique called "Artificial Neural Network" (it's a type of artificial intelligence). Because sometimes different foods look similar, this app takes into account the time of the day and the location for recognizing the food. If you share your location with this app, this app will NEVER transmit your location over the internet.

Also, the data is stored INSIDE your device, it is not sent to the Cloud, which means that in this app only you see your information and when you delete it, it gets deleted, no exceptions. Also, the object recognition happens in your device, the image is not sent to the Cloud to be recognized.

The artificial intelligence this app uses is a type of machine learning. It uses a feedforward artificial neural network and utilizes a supervised learning technique called backpropagation for training the network.
