Bitesandplay watches your child chew through the front camera — no wearable, no sensor. The screen stays on only while the bite is actually happening, so a favorite show never crowds out the meal.
01
YouTube, a streaming app, or a downloaded clip — Bitesandplay runs alongside whatever they already watch.
02
No wearable, no highchair sensor — just the phone propped up, reading the chewing motion in real time.
03
The pause is instant and automatic. Watching is a companion to the bite, never a substitute for it.
Compatibility
YouTube, Netflix, downloaded clips — Bitesandplay sits on top, it doesn't replace what they already watch.
Setup
Prop up the phone or tablet. There's nothing to charge, pair, or clip onto a bib.
Motivation
Each finished meal logs progress, so a plate cleared feels like a small win worth watching for.
Family
Separate profiles keep each child's shows, pace, and progress their own.
Because the video only runs while your child chews, total watch time tracks total eating time — not the other way around.
“Dinner stopped being a fight the day the show started pausing itself. She eats to keep it going.”
