How does PortionPro estimate my portion?

PortionPro combines meal recognition with personal context like your goals and activity level to suggest a portion before you eat.

Can PortionPro help with weight loss?

It can support better portion decisions, which may help if you are trying to lose weight. It is not a medical program and it does not guarantee results.

Who is PortionPro for?

PortionPro is for people who want help making better meal decisions without turning every meal into a full tracking routine. It can be especially useful for busy people who want structure without a lot of extra effort. See how it can fit into a busy routine.

What do you mean by guidance before the meal?

It means helping you decide how much to eat before the first bite, instead of only reviewing the meal after it is over. Read why deciding before you eat matters.

Why use photo-based guidance instead of manual logging?

Photo-based guidance cuts down on effort. Instead of weighing, typing, and logging each item, you can get to the decision that matters most faster: what and how much to eat.

Can PortionPro help if I tend to overeat without noticing?

Yes, that is one of the main use cases. The goal is to make portions clearer before you eat, so you are not relying on memory or willpower later. Read more about reducing overeating without tracking every meal.

Does PortionPro tell me what foods to eat?

Its core role is to guide how much to eat, not prescribe a full diet plan. The goal is to make portion decisions clearer within real meals and routines.

Using the app

These questions cover the main workflow, everyday habits, and the product experience around meals and progress.

How does the food photo feature work?

PortionPro uses a meal photo to recognize the food and generate portion guidance. The idea is to give you a faster, lower-friction starting point than manual entry. Read how photo-based guidance fits into real meals.

Can I use PortionPro every day?

Yes. The product is intended to support repeat meal decisions and daily habits, not just one-off food checks.

Where should I start in the app?

Start by setting your goal, checking one real meal, and using the guidance consistently for a few days. The exact setup flow may vary a bit by app version, but the core habit is the same. Read a simple getting-started walkthrough.

Can I update my goals over time?

Yes. If goal settings are available in your current version, it is a good idea to revisit them as your routine, activity level, or priorities change.

How does AI coaching support my goals?

AI coaching can use your goal, meal history, and progress patterns to surface more relevant guidance over time. The goal is to make the next decision easier, not just summarize the last one.

Can I edit a meal or reuse something I eat often?

Depending on the current app version, you may be able to edit past entries, reuse frequent meals, or rely on history to move faster. The exact tools can vary by release.

How do reminders fit into the experience?

If reminders are available in your version, they are there to support consistency rather than force perfect tracking. They should help you check in before meals, not create more pressure.

How can I see my progress over time?

Progress is usually easiest to understand through repeated meal decisions, consistency, and trend views over time. The exact charts or insights available can depend on the current release.

What should I do if the app crashes or freezes?
