BiteCheck: Food Health Check

Sonicon

About this app

BiteCheck answers one question fast: is this okay to eat? Photograph your meal and get a 0–100 wellness score, a letter grade, and the reasons behind it — in English or Hindi.

BiteCheck is built for Indian food. Its nutrition table covers 209 everyday dishes — dal, roti, poha, idli, dosa, biryani, sweets — so a plate of home food is recognized by name, not reduced to "curry".

This is not a calorie diary, and it is not medical advice. Every score is a general wellness indicator only — never a diagnosis, never a diet plan — and nutrition is always shown as honest ranges, never fake precision.

CHECK A MEAL
Take a photo or pick one from the gallery. A vision model identifies the dishes in your photo; the nutrition math runs on your phone. The verdict screen shows the score and grade, how confident the recognition was, 2–4 plain-language reasons ("Good protein", "Deep-fried preparation", "High in sugar"), and calories, protein, carbs, fat, and fibre as ±15% ranges.

Portions in household units
Every dish breaks down in katoris, rotis, bowls, and pieces. Adjust a portion and the ranges and score re-scale live. A dish the model could not name is flagged "approximate estimate" instead of pretending.

SCAN A PACKAGE
Scan the barcode on any packaged food and BiteCheck pulls the per-serving nutrition panel from Open Food Facts: exact label values, a clearly sourced "this came from the label" verdict, and no invented numbers for products the database does not have yet.

WORKS OFFLINE
No connection? Snap away. Photos taken offline are queued on the device and checked automatically when you're back online. History, insights, and recent barcode lookups keep working.

YOUR HISTORY, ONLY YOURS
Every check is saved to a history that lives only on your phone — no account, no sign-in, no cloud sync. Reopen any verdict, delete a row, clear everything with one tap, or export the full history as JSON or CSV. The device is the system of record, and you can take your copy anytime.

LIGHT INSIGHTS, NO PRESSURE
A checking streak and a last-7-days summary: scans, average score, grade spread. No diary, no goals, no guilt — insights are a verdict companion, not a logging regime.

SHARE THE VERDICT
Generate a report card for any meal — score ring, grade, reasons — and send it straight from the Android share sheet. Bilingual cards, Devanagari included.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything you check is stored only on this device. No account, no sign-in, no tracking, no ads, no subscriptions. Only the photo you ask to analyze is sent for checking; your history and results never leave your phone.

BiteCheck is a general wellness indicator — not medical advice and not a diagnosis. Nutrition values are derived from IFCT 2017 (Indian Food Composition Tables), adapted for our dish dataset. Packaged-food data comes from Open Food Facts (openfoodfacts.org).

What’s new

• Any meal, anywhere: BiteCheck now knows 452 dishes from many cuisines, from pasta, tacos and ramen to dal and dosa. Global dishes use USDA FoodData Central.
• Portions come in more units: slice and serving join piece, bowl, small bowl, plate, glass, cup and roti.
• Pick English or Hindi under "About & language"; until you do, BiteCheck follows your phone.
• Sauces, dips, garnishes and unnamed sides are now estimated at realistic sizes, so a plate isn't overcounted.
