What can the mobile app offer

Main dashboard

• Update their last 3 meals of the food diary;
• Check what the next recommended meal is;

• Track physical activity by syncing with other apps or manually logging physical exercises.

Food diary

Once clients are set up with a meal plan, they can update their professional on their progress by logging meals or simply letting you know they've completed them on the mobile app.

On the main dashboard, they can let you know if they have been compliant with the recommendations of the last 3 meals of the day.

They choose the smiley face when all the recommendations have been met or the sad face when clients have not been compliant. If the latter is chosen, they'll be asked to update the information on their meal.

By clicking on the two arrows, clients can give additional information on the changes they've made, if they chose another food product, another serving size or if they have eaten a greater or lower amount than recommended.

If they click on the three dots ... clients will be asked:

• If they did not eat these foods;
• To restore changes to its original meals;
• Add another food;
• Change the hour of the meal.

They can see the overall food diary and which meal has been successful or if any meals have been skipped, as well as previous days. It is also possible to add a new meal.
