Yes, in a few ways. Use Manage Cards to pick which ones show at all, tick off the ones you don't want and hit Save. On the page itself, drag any card by its header to reorder them exactly how you like, changes save automatically. Some cards also have a small expand button in their header that gives them more room to show extra detail. Mix and match all three until your Overview looks like your own dashboard, there's no single right layout, just whatever surfaces what matters most to you.

Your streak is protected. Mark a date range as a holiday in Profile > Holiday and any day you don't log anything during that window shows a holiday badge instead of breaking your streak. If you do still log something on a holiday day, it still counts as a real hit, holiday mode never hides genuine activity, it just stops an untouched day from punishing you.

It's a simple average of four things: Steps, Hydration, Sleep, and Calories. Each one is capped at 100%, so smashing a goal doesn't push your score past what a perfect day would already give you. Calories works a bit differently: it's pass or fail against your target rather than a percentage, so being just under budget scores the same as being way under. One thing worth knowing: if you haven't set a goal for one of these four in Settings, it counts as a 0% rather than being left out, so an unset goal can quietly drag your score down. Set all four goals to get a score that actually reflects your day.

Not bad at all, one day doesn't undo weeks of consistency. A single day over your calorie target barely moves the needle on the wider trend that actually determines progress, what matters is the pattern across weeks, not any single day. Log it honestly, move on, and get back to it tomorrow, beating yourself up over one day is far more likely to derail you than the day itself ever was.

Start smaller than you think you need. A big deficit feels tempting for faster results, but it's harder to sustain, saps your energy for workouts, and is the fastest route to giving up altogether. Pick a modest deficit in Settings to start, 250 or 500 kcal a day rather than 1000, and only increase it later once it actually feels sustainable. Slow, consistent progress you can stick to beats an aggressive number you abandon within a week.

If the barcode doesn't return values for your product, enter the name and nutritional information yourself and log the entry as you normally would. Logging it saves that barcode to your own food database, so scanning it again afterward should pull it up automatically.

It depends on your goal, whether that's losing weight, gaining weight, or building muscle, each needs different amounts of protein, carbs, and fat. Head over to the Settings tab, set your objective and activity level, then use Recalculate to get suggested macro targets you can apply directly, or enter your own numbers manually.

A product's nutritional info can change as manufacturers adjust portion sizes or ingredients. If a scan looks wrong, correct the values on the Add Food form before logging; that saves them to your barcode database, so future scans return the fixed numbers automatically. Editing an entry after it's already logged won't save the fix, so correct it at log time. Fix it once, and it's fixed for good.

• Daily Defaults is for foods you eat almost every day: set it once and it logs itself automatically the first time you open the day, remove it that day if you skip it. • Meal Prep is for cooking in batches: build a meal from its ingredients, say how many portions it makes, then log off it over the following days until it runs out. • Fancy a Treat doesn't log anything at all, it's just a quick lookup to check a food's calories and how long it'd take to burn off before you decide whether to actually eat it.

Burned isn't a fixed number, it reflects your actual activity that day: synced steps and workouts from Google Health (or your TDEE estimate if nothing's synced yet for that day), plus anything you logged manually on Activities. A more active day means a higher Burned number and more budget to spend; a quieter day means less. Your deficit target in Settings can shift things too, though once today's target is locked in, changing it only affects tomorrow onward, not today.

No, your past logged entries are unaffected. Deleting a library item detaches it from any days you've already logged it on, so removing it doesn't touch your history. Each diary entry keeps its own saved name, calories, and macros from the moment you logged it, rather than looking them up from the library each time. You're only removing the shortcut for reusing it going forward.

It's in My Library, and controls what tapping a quick-chip does. With it on, tapping a quick-chip in a meal header logs that food straight away at its saved amount, no editor screen. With it off, tapping one opens the editor first so you can adjust the amount before saving. Either way, long-pressing a quick-chip always opens My Library and highlights that item.

It's more connected than it looks. Water has zero calories, so swapping sugary drinks for it is one of the easiest calorie cuts you can make. Thirst is also often mistaken for hunger, so staying hydrated can stop you snacking when your body actually just wants water. Being properly hydrated also helps you train harder and recover faster, so your workouts stay effective instead of cutting short from fatigue. It's not the headline metric, but it quietly supports the other three.

Yes. Everything you log counts toward your daily total the same way, ActiFe doesn't distinguish drink types, so coffee, tea, or anything else all count as ml just like water does.

In general, yes, you lose extra fluid through sweat, so drinking more on active days is a good habit. ActiFe's own hydration goal doesn't automatically adjust for this though, it stays at whatever fixed number you set in Settings, locked in once the day starts. If you're training hard regularly, it's worth setting your goal a bit higher to begin with rather than expecting the app to bump it on workout days.

Yes. Tap the Quick Add label itself, not one of the amount buttons, to open an editor where you can change each preset's amount and label to match your actual glasses, bottles, or cups. Save it once and those become your new defaults from then on.

Total hours isn't the whole picture, when you go to bed matters almost as much as how long you sleep. Your body runs on a roughly 24-hour internal clock that regulates hormones, energy, and sleep quality, and it works best on a predictable schedule. Sleeping 8 hours but at wildly different times each night is like shifting your own time zone daily, it makes it harder for your body to settle into deep, restorative sleep even if the total adds up. That's what the Bedtime Consistency score on this page tracks, how much your bedtime actually swings night to night, not just whether you hit your hours.

Yes, there's a dedicated Nap option when you log an entry, separate from your main sleep, with its own quick-duration presets (15, 30, 45, 60 minutes) instead of the usual overnight ones. Naps show up in their own list on the page and still count toward your total sleep minutes and daily goal, they're only excluded from the bedtime consistency chart specifically, which tracks your longest sleep session each night.

Two different ways depending on the source. A manually logged entry is self-reported: you enter how long you slept, and an exact start time is optional, if you skip it, that entry won't have a bedtime to show on the consistency chart. A synced entry from Google Health is different: it uses your phone or wearable's own real detected sleep and wake timestamps, plus actual light, deep, and REM sleep stages if your device tracks them, not a guess. If you want the fuller picture, syncing beats typing it in by hand.

A few options, in order of convenience versus precision. A smart scale that estimates body fat via bioimpedance is the easiest, log it here in ActiFe and watch the trend rather than the exact number, since it swings with hydration and time of day. Many gyms also have a proper body composition scan (like an InBody machine) that's a bit more consistent if you use the same one each time. For real accuracy, a DEXA scan every 6 months or so is the gold standard, expensive and not something you'd do often, but a useful check-in to see how your home tracking compares. Whatever method you use, log it consistently in ActiFe so you can actually see the trend.

That's a projection, not more of your actual data. It picks up exactly where your real weigh-ins end and estimates where you're heading if your recent trend continues, based on a proper trend calculation over your most reliable recent weeks, not just the last couple of data points. It only shows when your recent progress genuinely lines up with your goal direction, if your weigh-ins have been too inconsistent or moving the wrong way, it won't show a misleading projection at all.

You don't need to log all of them every time. Waist is the single most useful one for most goals, it tracks fat loss or gain more reliably than the scale alone since it's not thrown off by water retention the same way. Chest, hips, and thighs are worth adding if you want a fuller picture of body composition changes, especially if you're building muscle and the scale isn't moving much. Neck, shoulders, and arms are more niche, useful if you're specifically tracking upper-body growth, but skippable otherwise. Pick two or three that actually match what you're working toward rather than logging everything out of habit.

Whatever you've set as your Measurement frequency in Settings, which defaults to every 4 weeks, is a good baseline. Measurements change slowly, so measuring daily or even weekly mostly just adds noise from water retention, time of day, and how you're standing, not real signal. Every 2 to 4 weeks is enough to actually see a trend without the numbers bouncing around and being discouraging.
