Is it possible to scan the ingredients in when creating a recipe rather then having to type it

    There’s a barcode scanning option in the Recipe Builder, so you can scan any packaged goods etc.

    I only use the IOS app so can’t tell you where to find it on other platforms but on iOS it’s at the bottom right when you use the ‘Add ingredient’ option.

    You still need to check that the calories coming up are correct. Or that it's the right product to start with as most of the database is entered by users. Lots of entries are just wrong, or might belong to a different country with different ingredients and calories.
