How do I add a food product?

2 min read

Step 1: Enter product information (left)
​

Start with the product basics so you and your members can easily find it later:

  • Product image: Click Upload image to add a photo of the product or packaging. This makes it visually recognizable to members in the app.

  • Barcode / EAN: Enter the official barcode number here. This is essential for the app's barcode scanner to recognize the product later.

  • Names & Brand: Enter the official Product name (e.g. "Skyr Icelandic yogurt") and optionally an Alternative name. Remember to add the Brand.

  • Category & Description: Choose the correct category (e.g. Dairy or Snacks) and optionally add a short explanation.

Step 2: Contents and nutritional values (right)
​

Now enter the data normally found on the back of the packaging:

  • Package contents: Specify the amount in the entire package (e.g. 500) and choose the unit (Gram or Milliliter).

  • Amount per 100 grams: Enter the exact macro information:

    • Calories (Kcal)

    • Protein

    • Fat (specifically including Saturated fat)

    • Carbohydrates (specifically including Sugar)

  • Show more: Click to add micronutrients such as fiber or salt too.

Step 3: Review and save

  • Live Preview: In the middle of the screen is a white box with a barcode illustration. As you type, it previews how the product label will look.

  • Create: Check that all required fields (marked with a red asterisk *) are filled in and click the black Create button at the bottom right.


Important: always enter details per 100 grams or 100 ml, even if the package is larger or smaller. The software calculates the correct proportions when a member logs a specific serving.
