When you first onboard into our app, it automatically calculates a calorie intake based on the answers you provide, such as your height, age, sex, activity level, and other factors. After your daily calorie intake is calculated, you will see it on the main page of the app. That is the number of your estimated daily calories that you should intake to reach your weight goal. This number already includes the calorie deficit if you choose the goal to lose weight in the onboarding quiz.
✍️ Note: If your calorie number seems too low and changes randomly, it’s likely because Energy Expenditure mode is set to Activity Tracking (workout calories included). This mode adjusts your total calorie goal based on logged workouts. For example, a 1,200 calorie goal will increase to 1,600 after logging a 400-calorie walk.
You can change this in your Profile settings.
Below you can also see your daily amount of fats (green letter F), carbohydrates (blue letter C), and protein (yellow letter P).
