How do I set up widgets?

Foodnoms comes with several helpful widgets that make it easier to track your goals and log your food quickly.

How to Add Widgets

Here's how to add them to your Home Screen:

  1. After installing the app and setting up some goals, navigate to your device's Home Screen.
  2. Tap and hold on the background until the app icons start jiggling.
  3. Tap the "+" button at the top.
  4. Search for "Foodnoms" in the search bar. If nothing comes up, please see this support article.
  5. Scroll horizontally to see all available widgets. Note, the Goal and Goal Summary widgets are configurable in a variety of ways, including the ability to change which goals they show.

Customizing Widgets

To customize a widget:

  1. Tap and hold on it, then select "Edit Widget" in the popup menu.
  2. Edit the settings offered for that kind of widget. For example, the "Goal" widget has a "Goal" setting. By default, this widget shows you your first goal. You can tap the "Goal" setting when editing the widget to change it to display another goal.
