Frequently asked questions
Are the recipe calories reliable?
They are calculated per serving from the recipe's ingredients and their quantities. If you change the number of servings, Ubod recalculates everything.
Can I log a recipe for another day?
Yes. The date menu, next to the meal picker at the bottom of the recipe page, lets you pick the day before you tap Add to journal.
Where do I find my own recipes?
In the Recipes tab, under My recipes. You will find the recipes you created by hand, with Fanak in the chat or from a photo scan.
