Track in seconds
You can add foods by scanning
barcodes, selecting from a list
of your commonly consumed
foods or by searching within the
huge database. The process
takes seconds to complete each
time you use it and becomes
very familiar quickly.
Throughout
the day
As you add new items the app
will calculate the amount you
have consumed so that you
can immediately understand
where you are within your
daily goal. The ‘Under’
marker on the right is the
most useful indicator.
Control your calories
The longer term
The ‘My Day’ tab lets you
view a graph showing how
your consumption changes
over time. You will need to
weigh yourself often to fully
understand how what you
eat and drink affects your
weight over time.
