Food Database for New Zealand.

A New Zealand food data base would be amazing. The closest is the American one but doesnt really do the trick as our Kai is so different. I hope you can consider including a database for us in the future 🙂

It would be very helpful if you could add a New Zealand database for our food.  Our food is vastly different from the American database is is hard to get an accurate calorie count.

I think you need to add all different foods into the calorie tracker. I am in NZ and just got a fitbit charge 2 and I cannot add any NZ food into it all. I am going to have to keep using my fitness pal which is a real pain. Like my fitness pal you should be able to just scan the barcode and the food goes straight in. Is there any chance this can happen in the near future?!
