Plate Score

How to use Plate Score

Every food gets a score from its calories, fat and fiber. Stay inside your daily range, save the leftovers as rollover, and watch your weight trend down. Follow these steps in order. Each one checks off as you finish it.

I know how to use the app. Don't show this guide when I open Plate Score.

You can always open it again from How to use Plate Score at the bottom of the Today page.
