Barcode food logging
Barcode food logging is scanning a product's barcode with a phone camera to automatically add its calorie and macro data to a meal log; the data comes from the Open Food Facts database.
Barcode food logging is scanning a product’s barcode with a phone camera to automatically add its calorie and macro data to a meal log. Its accuracy depends on whether the scanned product is actually in the database.
In Cookrange, scanning pulls from the Open Food Facts database — a global, open product database, not a country-specific one. If a product isn’t listed there, no barcode match is found.
