Where you are
The first tab is called Diary, and it is the screen you'll open most. Top to bottom it holds your streak, a strip of days, whatever needs your attention today, the progress pages, and then the day's food.
The day strip
Under the header sits a week of days you can swipe through, each with a ring showing how that day went. Tap the calendar icon beside it to jump to any date. Future days are there too — you can log ahead.
What the ring reads. For a day that has finished, it compares your calories to that day's target, and the band it treats as on target follows your goal: within 100 either way if you are maintaining, from 250 under to 100 over if you are losing, and from 100 under to 250 over if you are gaining. The next band out is near limit; beyond it, off target. The undershoot is the generous side when you are losing, and the overshoot when you are gaining — the ring is lenient in the direction your goal is already pulling.
Days that cannot be scored say so rather than guess: no meals logged, partial logging, and fasting days each read as themselves, and a day you pre-logged is never judged, because a verdict on food you haven't eaten yet is not worth anything.
Today is read against your own pace. Scoring a day in progress by the end-of-day rule would mark every morning as far under target, so today is measured against the curve of how your intake usually accumulates: on pace, ahead of pace, behind for today, or over target.
Three pages, not one screen
The block under the banners is a pager: three pages, swiped sideways, showing the same day from three angles.
| Page | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Calorie progress | Calories and macros for the day — the ring, the big number, and a tile per macro |
| Daily nutrition | Fiber, sugar and sodium as three rings, plus one card underneath |
| Weekly budget | How your week is adding up, day by day |
It reopens on whichever page you left it on, so if you live in Weekly budget, that is what you get next time.
To reorder them: Profile → Dashboard, drag the pages into the order you want, then tap Save. The screen says it plainly — drag to choose the order of the pages at the top of the diary. You can reorder, but you can't remove: the pager always renders all three, so a page you never use is one swipe further away rather than gone. The order is remembered on that phone and doesn't follow you to another device.
Remaining or consumed, everywhere at once
Tap the calorie card — or the nutrition rings, or the weekly budget label — and the whole dashboard flips between showing what you have left and what you have eaten. It is one setting, not one per card, and it sticks.
Two things deliberately ignore it: the ring and the macro percentages are always consumed against target, because a ring that filled up as you ate less would be nonsense. And in remaining mode the numbers keep their sign, so a macro you went over reads as −12 g rather than 0.
The card that changes
Underneath the three nutrition rings there is one more card, and which one you get depends on your setup. With water tracking and quick water logging both on, it is your water for the day. Otherwise it is weekly consistency — how many days you have logged this week. They share the slot; you never see both.
Things that appear when they matter
Between the day strip and the pages, the Diary surfaces what needs you:
- the weekly check-in banner, on your check-in day (see your weekly check-in);
- a pointer to the Discover guides, which stays until you dismiss it — and dismissing it sticks across your devices.
Your streak lives in the header, next to the wordmark; tapping it opens achievements.
The day's food, and the add button
Below the pages is the day's journal — what you've logged, editable right there. The journal screen gives the same thing more room.
The button in the bottom-right corner is the whole logging arsenal: search is always there, and the shortcuts around it — photo, voice, barcode, quick add, and more — are yours to rearrange under Profile → Menu shortcuts, so the ways you actually log sit closest. Everything else in the app exists to make what happens after that tap accurate.
