How do I create and save custom foods?

You can create custom foods in Foodnoms to track items that aren't in the database.

Creating a Custom Food

1. Go to the Library tab

2. Select Foods

3. Tap the + button

4. Select Scan Nutrition Label or manually enter the nutrition information from the label

5. Save your custom food

On a Mac: select Foods in the sidebar, then click the New (+) button in the toolbar and enter the food's details. To create a food from a product's barcode instead, start logging food and choose "Scan Barcode".

Using Custom Foods

Your custom foods appear in search results when logging food. They're stored in your personal library and sync across your devices.

Managing Custom Foods

To find, edit, or delete a custom food, go to Library → Foods, select the food to view its details, then edit or delete as needed.

Sharing Custom Foods

You can share a custom food with the share button on the food detail screen. See "Can I share recipes, meals, and created foods with someone else?" for details.
