Build a Calorie-Tracker App From a Photo (No Code, ~2 Minutes)
The build from the video: a mobile app where you photograph a meal and AI instantly logs calories, protein, carbs and fat, with a running daily total and full history. You don't write any code. Blink builds the pages, backend, logins and database for you.

Build me a mobile app where users take a photo of their meal and AI instantly logs the calories, protein, carbs, and fat, with a running daily total and a history of everything they've eaten.3. Hit Start Building
About two minutes later you've got a full working app, pages, backend, logins and a database, ready to publish to the App Store and Google Play.
4. Let it run itself
Turn on the built-in AI agents (software engineer + social media manager) so the app maintains and markets itself. Then tweak the prompt to make it yours: add barcode scanning, a water tracker, streaks, whatever you want.
