im trying to gain weigh as I am in my 6th month of pregnancy. How do I set the app so it knows I'm pregnant. I'm sure calorie need and usage is different.

    Double check with your ob/gyn, but I think by the third trimester, you need an extra 200-300ish calories/day.

    There is no setting because the needs of each pregnant woman are very different. Talk to your doctor about what is appropriate for you.
