Fix the logging food piece
Great app overall but logging food is so painful. Can’t find brands. Scanning barcodes doesn’t work most of the time. really annoying especially since you have to pay for it. Free version of MyFitnessPal is way better

Hi Erin, I understand your concern. Can you check if you are using the barcode scanner correctly: Select the scanner icon next to the search bar. Give your camera access to the app if you're prompted to. Place the barcode inside the frame to scan or select to Enter code manually. When you find your product, enter the serving size and click Add food. If the barcode isn't in the database, you may add your product manually by following the previous instructions.
