    Barcode scanner is now a premium feature on MFP. If having it is a dealbreaker for you, the barcode scanner is free on most other calorie counting apps.

    Probably 2/3 of the time for me. But I’m in the UK and I suspect it works better in the US (more entries). Companies seem to change their formulas and ingredients quite frequently too.

    Really miss the barcode scanner - it was so important to me when recording calorie intake.
