Five-star early feedback from people who eat this way"Finally an app that understands Asian cooking"

Why this exists

Every other nutrition app was designed for someone eating alone.

They built their databases around chicken breast and brown rice. Then users from Singapore, Toronto, Melbourne, and Vancouver opened the app and tried to log their mum's stir-fry.

Three conflicting entries, wrong calories, no way to split the dish between everyone at the table. Calorie tracking is useful. It just has not worked for the way most Asian families eat - until now.

The feature no other tracker has

Split a shared dish at the table. Everyone logs their portion.

Hot pot. Dim sum. A stir-fry passed around the table. BeforeIBite lets you split any dish between family members and adjust each person's portion instantly - without starting over.

What you're actually tracking

A database built for the food you grew up eating.

BeforeIBite is built first for Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese, South Asian, and broader Asian cuisines - home-cooked, restaurant, and traditional dishes.

We know what congee is. We know how a hotpot works. We know that your mum's version and the restaurant version are not the same, and we give you the tools to adjust.

The most common complaint about MyFitnessPal from Asian users: wrong data for Asian food. BeforeIBite is built to fix exactly that.

Portion control, your way

Adjust any ingredient without starting over.

Asian meals are rarely pre-portioned. You take a bit more rice. You had less of the main dish because your dad took the last piece. You added chilli oil.

BeforeIBite lets you tweak any quantity on any food item instantly - no logging the meal from scratch, no guessing.

Testimonials

From people who actually eat this way.

"I've tried five nutrition apps. Every single one failed when I tried to log my mum's cooking. BeforeIBite is the first one that actually knows what the food is."
Five-star App Store review
"The family-style splitting is something I didn't know I needed. We always share dishes at dinner - now everyone can log their actual portion."
Five-star App Store review
"Was paying for MyFitnessPal just to scan barcodes. Switched to BeforeIBite. Free, and it actually knows what char kway teow is."
