Open the item, tap the pencil button (Edit), then Nutrition. Enter the values from the package, tap Scan a nutrition label to read them with the camera, or tap Look Up Nutrition Online.
- Tap Scan a nutrition label and fit the whole label inside the frame. Each value gets a checkmark as it is read. If the label is hard to read, tap the light at the top right.
- The scan finishes by itself, or tap Review What Was Found.
- Compare the values with the label and fix any that are wrong. A value that looks too high or too low is pointed out.
- Tap Use These Values. Nothing is changed before that, and Undo on the Nutrition screen puts the old values back.
- Go back and tap the checkmark (or Done) to keep the item’s new nutrition.

- Labels with two columns — choose the column to use, such as one serving or the whole container.
- Labels printed per 100 g or per 100 ml — the values can be saved for one serving, worked out from the serving size, or for 100 g. When typing values yourself, choose Per 100 g or Per 100 ml above the values; it needs a weight or a volume in the serving size.
- Labels in other languages — labels in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian and Portuguese are read, and salt is turned into sodium.
Set the item’s Serving Size too — it lets recipes turn the amount they use into nutrition.
For water or ice, turn on It has no nutrition. It shows while no values are filled in.
