Norway Needs a food database

[Oyasha]

Not having a food data base for norway makes the fitbit less attraktive, and i dont want to recommend IT to anyone intill there is one.

Hi there @Oyasha. Welcome to the Fitbit Community!

Currently, since we don't have a foood database for Norway, I'd recommend taking a look at this feature request where you can add your vote and comments and the more users vote for this, the more chances it gets reviewed by our team to be implemented in the future.

Anything else you may need, let me know! 🙂

Still no Norwegian food database?

Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums @janerikSH!

As of right now, we still don't have a Norwegian food database but please be sure to add your vote and any comments you may have to the feature suggestion here.

Anything else you may need, let me know! 🙂

I have already done it.

Feels a bit hopeless if you have no answer for 2 years  😞

I used another tracker before fitbit, and tracking the food really helped me stay focused. I actually gain weight when i started using Fitbit because there were no food logging

Thanks for voting for it @janerikSH. And I totally understand what you mean, I'm sorry about that 😕

In the meantime, I can suggest probably using MyFitness Pal which as far as I know, has a wider food database and it will connect to Fitbit so you can use it as a workaround. By connecting your Fitbit and your MyFitness Pal accounts, you will be able to  see all your nutritional meal summaries, macronutrients and other MyFitnessPal data in your Fitbit account. You can also see calories burned as recorded by your Fitbit tracker in your MyFitnessPal account to get a more complete picture of your health.

Let me know if you need anything else! 🙂

No windows mobile app on that page 😞

We need you to step up, cant rely on anybody elses app.

I agree, very much! Almost everyone I know uses a fitbit, and it's sad there is no food database here in Norway. It's not comparable the produce you find in Tescos or Asda, as the kcal value differs alot from Norwegian produce.

I do so agree. MyFitnessPal has an ok database but sometimes the connection with Fitbit goes down so it would have been much better having everything in one app
