A barcode match still needs checking

A missing product can turn a quick scan into another search. Even when you find a match, the serving or values may not fit the packet you have. Haps lets you look up a packaged food by barcode, then review its details before saving.

Compare the returned product and nutrition values with the label on your packet. Check the serving basis too: a value per 100 g and a value for one serving describe different amounts. A matching product name alone does not settle which number belongs in your log.

Barcode lookup does not cover every product and needs a connection. If the product is missing, or the information does not match your packet, you can use the nutrition label as the source for an editable entry instead.

Read the label instead of transcribing every number

Scan the nutrition label to fill an editable food form. This is a way to start from the information printed on your food, without copying all of it by hand. It does not mean the extracted values are guaranteed to be correct.

Keep the label available while you review. Check that the calorie number, units and serving basis agree with the packet, and correct anything that looks wrong before saving. An unclear or incomplete label can still require manual entry.

Barcode lookup and label scanning belong together because they address the same job: entering a packaged food. Neither feature grades ingredients, gives a product a health score or decides whether it is suitable for you.

Match the value to the amount you ate

Reading the digits correctly is only part of logging a portion. A packet can contain several servings, and the printed serving may differ from the amount you ate. Check whether the source value refers to a serving, 100 g, 100 ml or the whole packet.

Review the quantity and calorie value for the portion you intend to record. Haps gives you editable values; it cannot decide the amount you ate from a barcode. A label scan also does not make the printed serving a recommendation.

If you already have the calorie total for your portion, enter it manually. After saving a food, you can reuse a recent entry instead of scanning the same packet every time. Check the portion again when it changes.

Choose another logging method when you need it

A plate of food without a nutrition label needs a different starting point. The Haps meal scanner estimates foods, portions and calories from a photo. It needs internet access and your review before saving; it cannot reveal every hidden ingredient or exact quantity.

For poor or no internet, core manual entry and recent-food reuse work offline and synchronise later. Barcode lookup and online scan processing depend on connectivity. Do not rely on an online lookup or analysis completing without a connection.
