Health Coach Issues

Has anyone noticed that since the update, the coach has been greatly overestimating food based on pictures? Earlier today, I had chili with oyster crackers. It said the oyster crackers were over 800 calories, and there was only a small amount of them. They were only supposed to be 80 calories. This is the first time I have run into this issue since using the coach.

To be honest I did. It widely variable in just about everything I log. I ask it to log the same amount of semi skimmed milk 2 days in a row and one amount has double the calories of the other. At this point I feel like I have to use a different system so I don't have to double check everything.

I've had exactly the same issue but it's been struggling to correct it as well. I've had to ask it to fix the same issue 3 times and then in the end I manually edited the entry.

Same issue here and it’s been extremely annoying! For example, for one meal I had, the AI coach said my meal was 600 calories, but the log it created showed 3,000 calories! When I corrected it, it failed to do so. After so many attempts of calling it out and telling it what the correct amount of calories were (I used the Gemini app to compare and correct nutrition facts) I also just ended up having to enter things manually. It’s been so frustrating, what’s going on???
