Patient
«FoodCapture has given me a much better overview and made me more aware. Then I saw that it was so much, and it was not so much. It meant a lot, then I got more into what different types of food contributed. I think the app is a perfect fit. "
"When your appetite is poor, I think you can eat more than you would without the App. It gives an overview, you see if you reach your goal, right"
Nurse
"I see the patients are proud. `Look, today I have achieved 85% of my needs.' It gives them a sense of accomplishment. They have something to work towards and have control over themselves."
"I do not trust diet lists that are kept by hand. I do not trust that they are kept correctly, that everything is included. But I trust the App. It is because there is a lot of second guessing with the calculations we do manually. That is not the case with FoodCapture."
