Video — Food Shorts on Homepage

The BBB Bites Customer App shows Food Shorts — short food videos — directly on your homepage feed. These are uploaded by restaurant partners to showcase their dishes and offers.

🍔
Food Shorts
Short vertical food videos shown on your homepage. Restaurants upload these to highlight dishes, deals, and new menu items.
🏠
Homepage Feed Only
Food Shorts appear only on the homepage feed. No videos are shown inside order pages, checkout, or profile screens.
🎬 What data is collected during Food Shorts playback?
We collect which videos you watched and your watch duration. This data is used only to show you more relevant food content on your homepage. It is never sold to advertisers or third parties.
✅ Food Shorts are uploaded only by verified BBB Bites restaurant partners. No third-party video platforms or external trackers are used inside the video feed.
⚠️ You can disable autoplay Food Shorts anytime via App Settings → Video Preferences.
