Are my food photos stored anywhere?

No. On phones with built-in AI, the photo is analysed on the phone, and checked in the cloud only when the phone’s AI can’t recognise the food reliably. On other phones, a small copy without location details is sent securely to Google’s Gemini AI to recognise the food; it isn’t linked to your name and isn’t stored, and Google doesn’t use it to improve its products. The app deletes its temporary copy as soon as the scan ends.
