Inspiration

I made this app for my dad to help him control his calorie intake.

What it does

My app tracks calories and other nutrition and provides low carb meal plans and recipes.

How we built it

I used MIT APP Inventor Tools, Google Cloud Vision API for scanning nutrition facts, RapidAPI Repository for recipes and nutrition info, and MIT APP Inventor Extensions for graphics.

Challenges we ran into

It was hard to come up with a cool idea and create a good app within the 24 hours given.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

It was the first time I used Google Cloud Vision API. I also attended all of the workshops and learned a lot.

What we learned

I learned how to get into the "flow state" and how to use Android Studio.

What's next for My Food Diary

With limited time, there are some functionalities that will be completed and improved. I think there are a lot of things that I could add in, such as tracking my exercise, providing exercise information, and a lot more.
