Hi, I'm new to this app and wondered if you can barcode scan food through this app? If so, how do you do it as I can't see it on the app
Many thanks
Linda

Yes, you can scan a bar code so it’ll search the database for you.
If you’re in your food diary and go to enter a food the bar scanner icon appears to the right of the search box.1 -
Yes, you can. But you still need to check the data you get as pretty much everything in the database is user-entered. Calories might be way off despite green checkmarks. Or you might get rice crackers from scanning chocolate.1
