Hiya, I'm stuck on something on the Up3 app and wondered if anyone could help?
Is there a way to log water that you've drunk - I've searched "water" and plain old tap water just doesn't appear on the database and isn't something you can exactly scan in......
Also: re scanned foods, is it at all possible to CHANGE the serving sizes??? I've just scanned the barcode for a a 70% cocoa Green & Black chocolate bar, having had 2 pieces; however the serving size on the database is presumably for the entire bar so it's telling me I've had 535 calories!!!!!!
I can't see any way to change the serving size you've had?
Would be grateful for any advice

I wouldn't really pay attention to the food database in the Jawbone app. You change meal sizes by kind of dragging your finger up/down, if I remember correctly. Regarding the water question, I can't help.0

I wouldn't log food in the Jawbone app - it would be a lot easier to use the MFP app barcode scanner and water counting. MFP and Jawbone will sync together so you'll have it in Jawbone after.0

OK, thanks guys. Finding the UP difficult to use in terms of calorie counting etc, it just doesn't seem to work very well. The Fitbit I had is much better for that but they look flippin horrible!!!!0
