## What is Bite AI?

Point your camera at your plate. Bite AI tells you the calories and macros in seconds.

Bite AI is an AI food and nutrition tracker built around one simple idea: logging a meal should take a second, not a minute. Snap a photo and Bite AI recognizes the food, estimates the portion, and fills in calories, protein, carbs and fat. Every number stays editable, so you are always in control of your day.

SCAN ANYTHING
• Photo scan — one snap turns any meal into calories and macros
• Barcode — scan packaged food for exact nutrition
• Nutrition label — point at the label and Bite AI reads it
• Describe it — say or type what you ate and it gets logged

TRACK EVERYTHING
• Calories, protein, carbs and fat on a home screen built for one glance
• Instant editing — fix portions, ingredients and macros in place, no re-scanning
• Progress screens for weight, trends and your daily goals
• Apple Health sync and a home screen widget for your remaining calories

STAY CONSISTENT
• Build your circle of friends and keep each other going
• Streak leaderboard and weekly buddy challenges
• Friends see your consistency, never your food
• 96 achievement badges to earn, with all-new medal artwork

### 1/5 — Does not count properly

*2026-05-28*

Doesn’t count it properly. How to contact customer service?

### 4/5 — Very helpful

*2026-04-11*

I’ll never understand AI, and it kinda scares me, but this app is proving to be very helpful in my attempt to lose weight. It helps me be accountable, without making guarantees. My only complaint is that I have to remove the app from my screen and restart it almost every time I use it. Other than that, it does exactly what it says it would do. Since it’s been only a couple days, in a month or so I’ll be able to better appreciate its worth.

**Developer response:** Hi JoannGr — thanks for the honest review and glad it's already helping with accountability. The freeze-on-reopen bug should be fixed in our latest update — please update Bite AI in the App Store and let us know if it still happens. Looking forward to hearing how it's going in a month.

### 5/5 — Better than I expected

*2026-03-04*

Didn’t expect much but it’s actually well built and easy to stick with.

**Developer response:** Thanks azucena — that means a lot. We've got more coming soon to help you stick with it even longer.

### 5/5 — Clean and easy

*2026-02-27*

The layout is clean and not cluttered. I figured everything out without watching a tutorial.

**Developer response:** Hi Gwenda,
Thank you for taking the time to share this — that means a lot. We’ve worked hard to keep the experience clean and intuitive, so hearing that you could jump in without a tutorial is exactly what we aim for.
If there’s ever anything you’d like to see improved or added, we’re always listening. Appreciate you being part of it!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-02-14*

The recent update broke it does not scan food or labels or anything now

**Developer response:** Thanks for letting us know. We've identified and fixed the scanning issue in our latest update. Please update the app and try again — it should work smoothly now. If you still have trouble, reach out to us at support and we'll help right away.

### 2/5 — Pick another app.

*2026-02-03*

I purchased an annual membership last year, but the app has repeatedly failed to perform basic functions that are essential to its use. Specifically:



Poor Food Label Scanning:
The app rarely scans food labels successfully. In most cases, it fails to recognize or properly capture the nutritional information from packaging.
Inaccurate Photo Estimates:
When I take photos of food items, the app’s nutrition estimates are frequently incorrect. I find myself having to manually correct the information on nearly every item, which defeats the purpose of using a photo-based tracking tool.
Unable to Delete Items:
There is no reliable way to remove incorrect items from my daily log. Attempting to delete entries does not work. I’m forced to zero out items to prevent them from affecting my daily totals, which is inconvenient and not intuitive.




These issues have persisted since I first subscribed, and I have not seen any meaningful improvements. As a paying member, I feel that the app does not currently deliver the functionality I expected.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the detailed feedback — we take this seriously. We've improved label scanning accuracy and fixed the item deletion issue in recent updates. The macro editing sliders have also been refined so values stay consistent when you adjust them. Please update to the latest version and give it another try. We're committed to making Bite AI reliable for paying members like you.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-01-22, version 2.0.3*

Good tracker

### 1/5 — Waste of $30. Hopefully they can fix the issues that prevent entering accurate nutritional values.

*2026-01-18*

Sometimes it works fantastically. Mostly when you have a nice perfect flat nutrition label to scan. 

If you have something round and small for example - overnight oats from Trader Joe’s…it’s a small round container and it can’t scan the label and you can’t take more than one photo per food entry. Now you can manually input the macros - but when you do it automatically changes other values?! For example I put 250 calories, 6G fat, 42G of Carbs, 6g Protein it will drop calories to 184, or it will increase carbs to 44? If I change the amount from the default 100g to anything else it completely wonks up my macros and magically it becomes a 150 calorie 10g protein oatmeal. Let us insert custom values and stop changing them with your “ai”. 

When you select “fix with ai” it’s no different than using a random number generator. This seems like it should be an easy fix. 

There’s also no way to enter sodium, sat fats, sugar etc…why not?

**Developer response:** Hi Branden — thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review. We completely understand how frustrating it is when nutritional values don’t stay consistent after manual edits. That defeats the purpose of accurate tracking.
Since this review, we’ve made significant improvements to how custom macros are handled. Manual entries now maintain the values you input without being automatically adjusted, and we’ve improved scanning behavior for more challenging packaging shapes. Accuracy and user control have been major priorities for us.
We know you invested in the app, and we genuinely want it to deliver the experience you expected. If you’re open to it, please reach out to us directly at team@hypedev.co so we can personally assist and make sure everything is working properly for you.
We appreciate the honest feedback — it helps us build a better product.

### 4/5 — Great App

*2025-09-24, version 2.0.1*

The app itself is quite helpful and easy to use, but there is one major issue: I keep getting a constant error message saying that a “meal analysis was interrupted” and asking me to resume. This pop-up appears all the time and cannot be fixed, which is really annoying during daily use.

Another suggestion: it would be fantastic if the app had a widget for quick access to calories and macros left. That would make tracking much easier and more convenient.

### 5/5 — Healthy

*2025-08-12, version 1.6.0*

I lose my weight from this app make me healthy
