Abstract
Many apps have been created for food and health-related purposes, given our app’s secondary focus on calorie metrics and health, surveying existing apps, and previous approaches to curtailing the dining experience and promoting health will be helpful. An important aspect to consider when designing an app is a user engagement and how many people one can expect to use an app. Research has been done to study usage metrics and user experiences and opinions regarding mobile app usage, particularly in the health and diet app sector, which pertains to our app’s health features. Even with high user engagement, an app's overall utility and benefit also need to be considered and measured in some qualitative and quantitative sense. Numerous studies have been conducted to determine the effectiveness of food and diet apps on personal behavior. Although the app that is the subject of this proposal is not mainly a “dieting” app, its features, such as the calorie counter, can help facilitate these use cases for users inclined to do so.
