Create a recipe with bar codes?

I love the bar code option for my meals but can't find that option when creating my own recipes to save. I would love that option for adding individual ingredients. I think that would be easier for everyone! Thank you.

    This option should already be available when creating recipes.

    When you go through the Recipe creation process, be sure to select "Enter Ingredients Manually", insert your recipe name and servings and then click "Next", and tap on the "Add Ingredients" button. On this page, you should see the icon to select the barcode scanner.

    Hope this helps!
