Predicting portion size is something we’re actively looking into. One of the reasons for getting Bitesnap out to a larger audience now is to be able to collect more training data for doing this. We’re also experimenting with allowing users to specify portion sizes in more natural units -- for example by comparing a serving to the size of their fist -- and we’ll automatically convert these to conventional units. Finally, we’re also building more tutorials and help content into the app to educate people on better estimating portion size (among other things).
- AznHisoka 10y agoso you want early users to be a guinea pig for potential future users, and receive inaccurate counts? i dont think there will be any future users if accuracy is an issue in the beginning. this is one of those things that i believe you should have right from the beginning.

- m_ke 10y agoI spent a lot of time looking for a small bluetooth food scale that I could put under my plate but wasn't able to find anything. If I ever find some free time I might try to make one. Would be cool if I could pull one out from my pocket, stick it under my plate, get a measurement then subtract whatever is left after I'm done.
