How to log and edit food
Navigate to the Track tab. If you don't see a Track tab in your app, please navigate to the Home tab. Tap the Log food button.
Then type what you ate. For example: “2 eggs, half an avocado, 1 slice of sourdough.”
Alternatively, you can use AVO Vision to log your meals. To do this:
Tap the camera icon (either from the food entry tab or besides the Log food option).
Scan your food with our AVO Vision camera:
Our AI will translate the image into written text, so you can check the accuracy of your food entry. Then click Log Now
You can also edit the entry scanned by clicking the Edit button, making changes and click Update.

When you’ve confirmed that the details of your meal are correct, tap Done:
Tap Close at the bottom, and that’s it! You’ve just logged your meal:
After your food is logged, our algorithm, designed by our nutrition scientists, will provide a Nutrition Score and personalized feedback on your meal. Each food is assessed in terms of nutritional factors that can influence weight and health, like how much fiber, protein, and healthy fat they contain and how calorie-dense they are.

Editing a previous day’s meal
If you need to edit a previous day’s meals, go to your calendar at the top page of your Home/Track screen depending on the app version, and click the day of the week you want to edit.
Then, find the meal you want to edit, tap the Score next to it, and follow steps 2 and 3 above.
Good job! 🥳
How to change the meal type
You can now also choose the meal type when logging meals and also log snacks. When logging a meal, simply choose the type of meal it is: breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snack, and then change the time. If the time doesn't align with the meal type, e.g., you are logging breakfast at 7 PM, the app will ask if the chosen meal type is correct.
You can also edit the meal type by following the same steps as for editing the meal entry.
How editing meals can affect your fasts
If you edit the time of a meal that starts or ends a fast, that will affect the fast that this corresponds with.
If you delete a meal that starts a fast, this will automatically delete the fast it started.
If you delete a meal that ends a fast, this will automatically extend the fasting period until the next meal you record. If there is no meal logged after the one you’ve deleted, your current status will change back to Fasting.
