How does calorie count work?

[Lei_Lei]

Hello everyone, I wonder if someone can help me. My first question is in regards to calorie count. I just scanned a barcoad and it seemed it brought everything up correctly; however, the calories are showing in my ap as WAY different from the nutritional value on the container. Is there someone in support I could report this to?

My second question: who can I contact about adding more exercise options to the menu. I would love to be able to record when I'm sleeping, working, doing yard work etc. The list is so limited that I use driving or cleaning for almost everything aside from yoga.

Thanks for any help you may be able to offer!!

Best,
Lei J

Welcome to the forums @Lei_Lei! thanks for providing this information, could you please provide more details about the food you logged with the barcode feature and the difference you noticed in the calorie value? 

In regards to the activities, with help of the SmartTrack feature some of these activities could be recorded as Workout, but aside from that you can only select up to 7 activities in your account settings to be recorded from the tracker: 

                                                     

To have more specific added to the list, I recommend that you share this idea in the Feature Request board, this section is regularly reviewed by the team of developers for possible implementations in the future.  I hope this helps.
