Options
Not reading label
in Bug Reports
When creating a new food, the reading and population of the nutrition panel does not work for most items. The only value it reads is Sodium. Protein, Energy, Carbs, Fat etc is always left blank. I assume this is due to my labels being Australian, and Cronometer always defaulting to American. If we could default to our regional label or select the label preferred before the reading the photo of the nutrition panel, this may help.
This is not intermittent (ie some labels and not others). None of the dozens of foods I've created have had the data populated.
Comments
Ideally it would auto detect values from any of the labels that Chronometer can generate. Of course OCR is not the easiest thing, sometimes even North American labels are not read accurately.
The software is optimized to read labels in the American format. I'll put through a request to optimize other types of labels that we use, too. Thanks for your feedback!
