New google app can measure the calories present in your food


How much calorie am i eating a day? is it enough or more? should i go for less calorie foods? how much calorie is in this dish.


All the answers to the above questions which usually arise in some people who are trying to maintain their physical health and appearance are answered only by some snaps from the new google app called - "Im2Calories".

Yes! it can measure the calories present in the food of which you have taken picture of :).

But. You cannot rely on that completely right now at least as google says that "it will be accurate 30% of the time." I think that is enough for the start, and get a bit used to it.

Im2Calories isnt perfect right now but it offers a  drop down menu to identify the food in case of any misunderstandings which is what is happening often right now. But it will grow as more data comes into its database. As it works on artificial intelligence so it will be learning thats the best part.

Release date has not been talked about but it will be months atleast and might be even an year. But be prepared to fell uncomfortable about your daily calorie intake after the launch of the app :)
