-DiTrack is a smartphone-based dietary monitoring application. The app enables users to log meals using simple photo capture and voice annotations, reducing the burden of manual entry. +DiTrack is a smartphone-based dietary monitoring app designed to make nutrition tracking easier, especially for older adults recovering from hospitalization or living in long-term care. Traditional methods like food diaries or recall surveys are often unreliable and difficult for older adults to use. DiTrack solves this by allowing users to log meals with emphasis on simple photo capture and voice annotations. This results in a reduced need for typing, making it easier to create new entries.

 +Originally tested with younger adults, DiTrack is now being adapted for testing with older adults to ensure it's accessible, user-friendly, and accurate. The goal is to empower older adults to take control of their own health by tracking what they eat with minimal effort. Healthcare professionals will also be able to access this data through electronic medical records, improving nutritional care and reducing strain on caregivers.
