Thankfully, Cronometer makes this super easy by providing several ways to navigate efficient meal tracking.

  • Tap ‘copy to today


#2: Copy a meal to today

  • Tap ‘copy to today


#3: Copy an item to today

#4: Copy a meal to a different meal

  2. Tap the 3 dots

  3. Tap ‘Copy

  4. Navigate to the meal you want to copy to

  5. Swipe right on that meal

  6. Tap ‘Paste


#5: Copy a number of items to today

  2. select items you want to copy

  3. Tap the 3 dots in the upper right corner again

Bonus #6: Copy to any day

Say you are pre-planning your meals for tomorrow. If you are pre-planning your meals for tomorrow, you won't be able to use the "copy to today" feature since it is not today yet.

You will follow the same steps as before, but instead of selecting "copy to today," you will choose "copy" and then navigate to the day where you want to paste the food items.

This is one of the easiest ways to save time when logging your meals. By utilizing the copy-paste feature for items you frequently eat, you only need to log new meals manually.
