If you used your phone's camera app to take a picture of your meal or had somebody else send the meal image over, that image can be imported from your camera roll for up to two weeks.

To do so, tap on " + " in the bottom Navigation bar and tap on "Import". Select the desired image and add it to your timeline. AteMate takes the original image timestamp and places the photo accordingly on your timeline. However, to change the original timestamp, simply tap on it during the import or later by visiting the meal detail.

Tip: import faster

To access "Import" quicker, swipe right, and find it in the lower right-hand corner.

If you do not have a picture of your meal, you can always add your meal manually by adding a short description and setting the time manually up to a week in the past. This can be done by "Meal as Text" accessible by swiping right or through "+" in the bottom Navigation bar.

Tip: log in the moment when you can

Logging a meal right when you are about to it, along with how you felt, tends to be the most helpful. When that is not possible, adding it later still works well.

Often, we simply forget what we ate earlier, and journaling helps you remember. That awareness is where the real value lies. Life happens, and it is best to capture everything so your AteMate timeline stays complete, without missed meals. The import feature and the text-only meal feature both make it simple to add anything to your path.
