Photo scan
Tap +, take a photo or pick one from your library. The AI returns calories, protein, carbs, fat, and a confidence rating. Tap any field to edit before saving.
Custom foods
Library tab → + → fill in the macros once. From then on the food shows up in your search and you can log it without re-scanning.
Workout didn't show up
EatWisely reads HealthKit on app foreground. If you logged a workout in another app and it hasn't appeared, force-close EatWisely and reopen, or pull-to-refresh on the Today screen. If a specific app's workouts never sync, check Settings → Privacy & Security → Health → EatWisely → make sure that source is granted read access.
Switching AI providers
Settings → AI → Provider. Apple Intelligence is the default. Cloud providers need your own API key (BYOK) and live on the same screen. Find supported downloadable models under "AI Add-Ons".
Macros look wrong on a logged meal
Tap and hold the meal → Edit. Manual edits override the AI's estimate and stick. Your changes apply to the saved meal; they do not train the AI model.
Water tracking and Apple Health
EatWisely requires iOS or iPadOS 18 or later. Grant EatWisely permission to read and write Water in Apple Health. Logged water is saved to Apple Health when permitted, and daily water totals read from Apple Health.
Appearance and local access
Use Settings → Appearance to choose a theme. On iPhone and iPad, text follows your system text-size setting. Choose Appearance → Text → Use System Typeface if you prefer the system font.
Your local food log remains available without an iCloud account. Check Settings for sync status if meals are not appearing on another device.
