To use the voice capture feature

- If a match is not found, you will be prompted to try again. Simply tap the microphone, then speak the name of the food item again.
- If a match is found, you will be redirected to the Add Food screen, where the item is selected and ready to add.
- To update the Date, Number of Servings or Serving Size, simply tap on the item, then tap on the field you would like to update, enter or select the appropriate value and tap Done (if applicable).
- Next, tap the plus (+) symbol at the top-right of the screen to add the food item.

- You also have the option to search for or select food items from your Recent, Frequent or Custom food lists.
