Please note: If you eat at different times, you can use the same category (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, or Snack) multiple times. You do not have to add all of your meals under one category for the same time.

For example: You can track an apple as a snack, add meal time for 6:00 AM, and tap finish. You can then track carrots as another snack, add a meal time for 9:00 AM, and tap finish. These two snacks will show separately in your view.
