    You can add food to your diary by entering a food item in the search bar at the bottom of the New Dashboard

    Alternatively, you can tap the Diary tab at the bottom. Next, select a meal category and then tap Add Food to "Search for a food" at the top of the next page.
    - For greater convenience, our iOS and Android apps support searching by scanning an item's barcode. You can find this option below the Food Search tab.

    Tap on a matching search result, then adjust the Number of Servings or Serving Size to reflect how much of that item you’ve eaten.

    That’s it. Your food will be logged in your diary.

    Pro Tip: Our database has an enormous number of food items. You may improve your search results by adding terms like "uncooked," "cooked," "raw" or "generic" (for instance "apple generic") if your initial search does not provide the specific item you are seeking.
