Logging meals and readings
Add a meal, blood pressure, glucose or weight, by typing it in or from a photo.
You add a meal or reading from the red Add button. Type the number yourself, or take a photo and MedBuk+ drafts an entry for you to check. Photos are analysed by AI: MedBuk+ asks for your consent first and names the service that processes the photo, and the draft is an estimate. Nothing is saved until you confirm it. MedBuk+ records the numbers you give it and does not say what a reading means. If you have a question about a reading, talk to your doctor or nurse.
How do I open the Add sheet?
Tap the red Add button on any main screen. The sheet lists every way to add a record.
