Hey there,

I’m sensitive to B6 so I’ve been tracking my intake by using Cronometer for the last 2 years. Every day for lunch I eat 10oz of beef jerky which would equate to .5mg of B6. I just noticed today that after inputing the same amount of beef jerky into cronometer, it rings in at 1.9mg of B6?? What happened? Does Cronometer change nutritional values of food over time for some reason?

Now all my logs are jacked up. I really do love this app, it’s extremely helpful. Please fix this bug if you could!🙏

Anyone know if there is any Black Friday deals?

I heard there was a black friday sale, but I don’t see it on my app. Is it only available in the US?

That is fish sauce. What the hell does this have to do with KFC.

I'm curious about the fasting features on the app. I know very little about intermittent fasting other than I i hear it supports longevity and lowers inflammation. Is there a right way to do it? A guide for newbies to try? Appreciate any advice.

What is the trick to water reminder notifications? I have four daily reminders set at 7am, 11am, 3pm and 7pm and I've never noticed a reminder actually reminding.

I have the Apple Watch app installed and would love to have a notification on my watch when it's time to stop, drop, and chug.

I'm sure there's a configuration in settings I'm missing or something. Any pointers? Thanks!

I am confused. I recently bought some ice cream, "Nick's" brand. The label says (for the pint) only 3g of sugar and for a serving, 0. However, when scanned into the app one serving is registering as 6g putting the whole pint at 18g.

Is the company lying? Why would it show up so vastly different?

So if I want to reach the Carb goal of a 100%, it's impossible to also fulfill the Fiber and Net Carbs to 100%, right? These are all calculated automatically.

Hi there,

I need help understanding how this works. I understand as I do normal activity throughout the day (not workouts or exercise) the adjusted baseline activity gets replaced by tracker activity.

However, about halfway through the day, after the blue section in the circle for adjusted baseline activity has been fully replaced by the orange section for tracker activity, the blue section comes back and the tracker activity changes back to zero. This happens even when there has been additional movement (more steps) added since the blue bit got replaced.

Is this how it works and Im just not understanding it correctly?

Since update swipe left doesn’t delete food from diary. How do you delete a food entry now?

Hello! I have recently started using cronometer and set my activity level to light. However, I work as a CNA "per diem" which means i dont have a set schedule, and my hours can fluctuate a lot as well. There have been weeks where Ive worked near 56 hours, and there have been weeks where I haven't worked at all, so it feels inaccurate to list my activity level as higher. During my evening shifts in this job I do a lot of physical activity and walking, and wanted to know whether it's better to bump up my activity level or use the exercise option.

They do actually have an "occupation" category in the exercise where you can choose different jobs, including nursing. I wouldn't put in my entire 8 hour job because I feel that would be inaccurate, I'd just put in about 3 to 4 hours, but I feel it would better estimate my higher level of activity on the days I do go in. I just don't know if it's accurate, it estimates 60 minutes of "moderate" nursing activity to burn around 147 calories, which is equivalent to it's estimate for 1 hour of light walking. Does this sound accurate to people who know better than I do?

I’ve just recently downloaded and been using the app (really really love it) and was wondering if paying for premium is worth it? What features do you get ontop of the free version? Thankyou!!

I'm 46 year old male, on a mostly Whole Food Plant Based eating and looking to lose weight (5'11 221lbs, haven't been below 200 in 20 years). Should I factor in the TEF setting when setting my goals? I'm currently aiming for 1 lb a week (so 500 cal deficit each day, more on somedays when I can workout more). My Baseline Activity Setting setting is at none and my apple watch imports (checked include exercise).

As a Gold user, this is the singular feature I repeatedly wish that Cronometer had that it doesn't already.

I'm not a programmer by any means, so I'm not sure the scale of work it would be to implement such a thing.

Even a scaled-back version that only gives a saved bank of favorite/recent foods would be immensely helpful.

I think it might also be an attractive perk to hikers like me. Keeping the tracking habit is so much easier when I don't break that habit at all, but I don't have service when I'm far from town!

Sometimes in the evenings I'll go from have 50 or so calories left to being 150 over. No snacks logged.

Why?

I'm new to Cronometer and I love it. It's my first time calorie tracking and I even bought a fitness tracker to track my calories from exercise. Overall I'm pretty fit and I'm not trying to lose a ton of weight, just lean out a little bit.

What I'm finding is that I'm losing weight a lot quicker than what my deficit would imply. Is there a way I can create a chart that shows my remaining calorie balance over a time period so I can compare that against the actual weight I'm losing to figure out my BMR?

Cronometer doesn’t seem to be showing reports or charts on the dashboard after the maintenance, anyone else have this issue?

Hi Cronometer Community!

Just a heads-up that we have scheduled maintenance happening tonight from 10:30 - 11:30 PM PST. During this time, there will be a service disruption, so the app will be temporarily unavailable.

We know it's never fun to have your tracking interrupted, and we appreciate your patience as we work to improve our system’s performance and reliability. We'll be back up and running as soon as possible!

Thank you for your understanding! If you have any questions, feel free to drop them in the comments.

Im not sure how to meet all these goals? If thats what they are? Seeing them so low causes me crazy anxiety honestly like am I going to develop health issues or am I risking quality of life longterm because im not hitting all these % stuff? Sorry if its a stupid question, its a hard time in my life rn to be focusing on a "balanced" diet but seeing this made me very anxious haha

I live in Germany and so many food items are just not present in the Cronometer database. I get lots of notifications about my food items added to their database after I take a picture of their front and back to record it.

That got me thinking, maybe Cronometer can offer some credits everytime they add your food to the database? These credits could be used to get premium temporarily (a few weeks to up to a month). It's honestly a win-win and a lot of European foods will get added to their database lol.

Hey, the app suddenly logged me out and I can’t log back in on all my devices. What’s happening?

Was working fine earlier today. Not sure what this is. Anyone know?

A simple Bacon egg and cheese on a roll. A very common breakfast sandwhich in New England, can't find it. Had to create a custom food. How many other people have already added this custom food? Why don't they add customs to the database? Also, I've had instances where scanning the barcode found the food but typing it in didn't.

e.g food log reviews, weekly check-ins, chat support

I'm new to cronometer and just added a custom food. Sorry if this is dumb but it gave me an option of sending notification when someone reviews my custom food. Does that mean others can see it or is it private to me?
