I used to use cronometer. It has a pretty extensive database of food. There's even an option wherein if the bar code isn't found. You can take photos of the code. Label. And nutritional information to further improve the database. Would love for bevel to be the same! Along with the extensive database. Let the community work for you by adding their own too!

Unfortunately, I have real problems tracking my food if I don't have a barcode at hand. When entering, for example Müllermilch type Lemon Cheescake, the system only finds “Müllermilch” - no longer. That is not the same. In general, I also think that the database is not very “complete”. I fundamentally understand that not all PLUs can be stored. But it can't be that I “don't 100% trust” Bevel when tracking my food and have to “track/check” whether the macros match with another market-leading app. This should be improved urgently, please.

It is very common for me to scan the barcode of a food or drink as see mislabeling differences. For example, I enjoy drinking A&W’s Zero Sugar & Caffeine Free Root Beer. But, the USDA database has the drink labeled with 30.5mg of Caffeine. Another example, I love the La Colombe cold brew. But, when I scan the barcode on the can I get slightly different results (this comes from the Bevel Database). The can shows 160 Calories, while Bevel shows 150 calories. It also doesn’t include any caffeine data, so I have to manually add that. Same goes for individual macro nutrients. There are plenty of other examples, some are more drastic than others. If the discrepancy becomes drastic enough, I have to create a Custom Food. Next time that I want to track that specific item I have to remember to manually chose my own Custom Food, rather then relying on the default database.

It would be nice if by default Bevel would remember these changes. For example, if a drink has incorrect caffeine contents and I manually change it. Then, next time I log that same drink include the altered Nutrition Label.

Also would also be really nice if there was a crowd sourcing element. Meaning, that if a certain product gets changed enough times by a threshold of users it is save to assume that the database is incorrect and should be updated.

Please include FITT Meals UAE https://fittmeals.ae/ so I can use the scan bar code function.

Option to add sources to scan food barcodes. Or add official databases in app.

In Norway we have a extensive database of avaliable foods in Norway.
