Food diary
A food diary with a barcode scanner, right in your browser
Scan, pick a portion, done. HabitHelm makes logging quick enough that you’ll still do it after a long session.
- Open Food Facts search
- Barcode scanning with your phone camera
- 3 or 7 meals a day
Find it, don’t type it
Search covers Open Food Facts, the open database of millions of packaged foods. For anything from the shop, the barcode scanner is faster: it runs in your phone’s browser and needs no app.
Product pages show what Open Food Facts knows about an item, such as the Nutri-Score, NOVA group, allergens and additives.
Your day, your meals
Some people eat three times a day, others before and after every session. Choose three meals or seven time slots with times you set yourself.
- Foods, your own recipes, water and custom entries in one diary
- Edit, move and duplicate entries
- Calories, protein, carbs, fat and fibre against your target in real time
Missing a product?
Enter its nutrition once by hand. With your own Open Food Facts account you can add missing products straight from HabitHelm, so they help everyone else too.
Frequently asked questions
Is the food diary free?
Yes. The diary, search and barcode scanner are part of the free plan for good.
Do I need an app for the barcode scanner?
No. The scanner uses your phone’s camera directly in the browser. The first time, your browser asks whether HabitHelm may use the camera.
Where does the nutrition data come from?
From Open Food Facts, an open database maintained by a large community, so quality depends on each product entry. You can fill in missing values yourself.
