Hey folks!
Can you add a 'log food' tile to the dashboard / homepage to the iOS app?

If so, how please?

Much obliged

Scroll down to the bottom of the main dashboard and press on the "Edit" button.

 

Any tile that is not currently showing will show up with a red "+" in the upper-left corner. Press the "+". It will change to an "x". Any tile with an "x" is available for removal. The button that previously said "edit" will say "Done"; press on it.

 

BTW - while in the add/delete mode you can also move the files around.

 

Hope this helps and welcome to the boards.

Thank you.

I saw that. I guess there is no 'separate' 'Log Food' tile. I will have to go through the 'Calories / Food' tile then hit the '+' sign.

No biggie - highly appreciate your feedback.

Whoops - 

 

On the app dashboard you will see a little blue circle with a plus in it. Press on it and you will get eight different shortcuts, one of which is "Log food", which takes you to just where you want to be (right before "No biggie" in your post. If you change your mind about taking a shortcut, press the "x".

 

I tried to include an image but the new posting filters are messing that up.

I was able to log in via my computer, but could not find out how to add the food tile on my iPhone App.  The "help" section did not work, but I found the answer!    I had to push the "Discover" on the bottom of the App home page, and then scroll down past the programs they want you to buy to the list at the bottom.  I pushed the "health and fitness stats," and under that I could check or uncheck what I want to use on the homepage of the app.  I hope this help all of you who did not have an "edit" button on the bottom of your screen.  I have a fitbit charge 3, so maybe it's different for various versions.

They changed how it worked recently - I believe it was when they went to version 3.0 on the iOS app, though I could be mistaken. I have a Versa 2, and if I wanted to add Water tracking to my app dashboard that is how I would have to do it.
