Two messages in Workout Titan Nutrition bring people here: "Photo scan limit reached" and "Food lookup limit reached". They are separate allowances and they run out independently.
What the allowance actually is
A free account gets 5 photo scans and 5 food lookups. Not five a day, not five a month: five in total, for the life of the account. They do not reset, and there is no waiting for them to come back.
It is a trial rather than a free tier. Knowing that up front helps you decide where to spend them.
What spends one
- A photo scan: identifying a product from photographs, or estimating a meal from one.
- A food lookup: a fresh search for a food Nutrition has not resolved for you before.
What does not
Nutrition keeps working without either allowance. None of this spends one:
- Adding a meal from your cookbook.
- Logging something from your saved foods or recent meals.
- Copying or pasting a food you already logged.
- Editing nutritional values, changing servings, deleting entries.
- Weight, hydration, fasting, end-of-day notes, reminders and the week view. None of these touch either allowance.
Nothing you have already logged is affected. An account with no allowance left is still a working food diary. What you lose is the ability to look up something new.
Spending them well
Use them on the meals you eat every week, not on a one-off restaurant lunch. Look the food up once, correct anything wrong, and save it to your cookbook. A corrected food becomes one of your saved foods and costs nothing thereafter, so five well-spent lookups can cover most of a normal week's eating for good.
What Pro changes
Pro removes both limits, so you can search or photograph as often as you like. It also adds a daily summary that reads your day back to you and points out what you might change. Tap See Pro from either limit message to see the plans and prices for your store.
If you have a coach
Whether your coach's plan covers Pro for you depends on which plan they are on. Performance and Infinity cover it, so there is nothing to buy and nothing to manage. The free plan and Momentum do not. It is also tied to nutrition sharing being on: turn sharing off and you go back to the free allowance until you reconnect.
