The day screen answers "how am I doing today". The week view answers the more useful question, which is what the last seven days actually look like. Open it from the More menu, or from the week strip at the top of the day screen.
One nutrient at a time
Tabs across the top switch what the week is showing: Calories, Hydration, Carbs, Protein, Fat, Sat fat, Sugar, Fiber and Salt. Each one redraws the same seven days against that nutrient's goal, so you can check protein across the week without wading through everything else.
What each day shows
Each day is one row for the nutrient you have selected:
- The amount you logged, with a percentage pill and a progress bar showing how far through the day's goal it got.
- Under the bar, the goal itself ("of 2,000 kcal") and what remains ("350 left").
- Over the goal, the row says so instead ("120 over") and the pill, bar and caption all change color together, so the three never disagree.
- If you have posted an end-of-day check-in, its rating and a preview of your note sit beneath the figures.
Exercise does not appear in these rows. Steps and active energy live on the day screen and are never taken off your goal, so the week view compares food with your target and nothing else.
Why some days are gray
Future days and days with nothing logged show in gray, and they are left out of the weekly Total. This is the detail most worth understanding, because it changes how you read the summary.
It means a day you forgot to log is not counted as a day you ate nothing. The average per day is an average of the days you actually logged, so three logged days out of seven give you an average of three days, not a week diluted by four zeros. The summary tells you how many days were logged for exactly this reason. Read that number before you read the average.
The summary line
Three things: how many of the seven days you logged, your average per day, and the total still left across the week. On a weekly calorie goal the last of these is the one that matters. It is the number that tells you what Sunday can look like.
The trend chart
Below the days, your daily intake as a percentage of your goals. Swipe the chart to compare days, and use the arrows to change week. It also shows your average as a percentage of your calorie goal, which is a fairer measure of a week than any single day. A day above or below a goal is information about that day, not a verdict on the week.
With no goals set the chart tells you so and points at Preferences. There is nothing to compare against until you set one.
Mood ratings on the strip
If you have posted an end-of-day check-in, its rating appears on that day. A day with a rating but no food shows as check-in only. Read alongside the numbers, this is where patterns surface: the days that felt hardest are not always the days with the highest numbers.
Jumping to a day
Tap any day in the week view to open it on the day screen, ready to add what you missed. Coming from the week view is usually the quickest way to fill in a gap, because the gray days show you exactly where the gaps are.
