The Eatery is free (iPhone). The original app for those who make a choice in favor of delicious and healthy food. The great thing is that you don’t have to take notes and waste time counting calories. Simply take a snapshot of your dinner on your iPhone and send it to The Eatery to get expert nutritionist commentary with personalized recommendations for improving your diet. You can also see for yourself what foodies around the world are eating.
Many people understand how important it is to eat right, but not everyone does. The new app for iPhone is called The Eatery, and its purpose is to help people create a better eating habits.
The app’s creator, Aza Raskin, said it “nudges” the user to make the right decisions by making their daily diet. According to Raskin, the program represents a different approach to proper nutrition: instead of counting calories, users will be able to help each other to choose the right diet. The app itself is a kind of social network, where people share with other users pictures of the food they are going to eat.
Depending on the assessment of the usefulness, which is made “by eye”, and the attachment to certain cities and restaurants, a geographical map of healthy eating will be formed.
There is also a special quiz in the application, which will allow to find out the user’s preferred diet. This is necessary so that it is possible to understand in what dishes he knows the best. After answering a few simple questions, qualified nutritionists will score the user.
Raskin describes his app as an experiment designed to test how a person can get rid of their eating “habits” and force themselves to make improvements to their daily diet. Now the plan is to develop a new app that would contribute to a more effective method of traditional treatment for chronic diseases such as diabetes.
According to Raskin, the data that will be collected by users of The Eatery will be able to vividly display the location of the healthiest places in cities.
