How to create custom foods in Calory

Calory provides you with a range of options and tools to make recording the foods you eat as quick and easy as possible. One of those features is to create custom foods.

Custom foods, or My Foods, allows you to add the nutritional information about a food or dish that you regularly eat. This is saved in Calory so you can record this food on future days with a simple tap. The more custom foods you add, the quicker it will be to accurately record your calorie and nutritional intake.

Add a Custom Food to My Foods

1. To add a custom food to the My Foods section of Calory, tap on the food library icon on the home screen.

2. This opens the food library where you can search for the food you want to record. Swipe left on the menu at the top and tap on My Foods.

NOTE: You can also add a new custom food to the My Foods section of Calory from Settings. Tap the settings icon on the home screen then tap My Foods.
