100%. You should not trust photo based calorie tracking and should only use it when there is no other realistic choice (e.g. eating out).

You especially should not trust an app that does not do any research on the accuracy of it's algorithm or claims to be "consistently accurate" as many of them do currently. The truth is these algorithms have the potential to be accurate when values are averaged out over the long term, but dish to dish they will have occasionally wildly inaccurate results.

Your website says:

> SnapCalorie is the first app where you can take a picture of any meal and get an accurate calorie count and nutrition in seconds.

So which is it? Can you get an accurate calorie count of a meal from a picture or not?
