Units
Display energy in Calories (kcal) or kilojoules (kJ).
Show Weight Goal
Toggle this option on to add/subtract your rate of weight gain/loss to your energy budget equation in the Energy Summary. If you'd rather keep the Energy Summary a display of your energy balance, in other words the difference between your Energy Burned and Energy Consumed, toggle this off. If you have a rate of weight gain/loss selected in your Energy Settings, it will still be applied to your Macronutrient Targets. Swipe the top banner in the diary to the left to view these targets.
Timestamps
Toggle Show Timestamp to display the time of day of each diary entry. This feature is only available to Gold subscribers.
Summary Column
Choose if you want to track another nutrient in your diary. By default, Calories are displayed for each diary entry.
Diary Banners
Toggle on or off any of these categories to display or hide them from the top banner on your main diary page.
- Show Energy Summary
- Show Macronutrient Breakdown
- Show Highlighted Targets
Diary Settings
Toggle Show Groups to add separate meal categories to your Diary.
Toggle on the categories you would like to see in your diary. Tap the text to rename your diary groups. By default we have:

But if you want an Afternoon Tea, or Workouts, or Supplements category, you have complete control.
Group Subtotals

- Same as Summary Column in Diary:
Import Data from Device
You can also choose which group your connected device data goes to. For example, you can send all of your Apple Health Data to the 'Other'' group.
Group Quick Add Preferences
Tapping the green + beside each diary group name is a shortcut to adding data to that diary group.
You can customize each diary group to have a different shortcut to:
- Add Food

- Add Note
Or you can display all the above options when you tap on the green +. In that case, select 'All' from the list of group quick add preferences.
