Register food activity

[asaushkin]

Could you please help me with the questions...

We'd like to have an option to register user's food activity. Is it possible to do that with the current app or it requires some app improvements?

There is no meal-logging activity separately built out yet, but you could create an activity of your own using the Study Builder, that may meet your needs here and work in a similar manner to an extent. Specifically, you can create a questionnaire comprising instruction steps, question steps and form steps (and put in questions on what meal was undertaken at what time and with what foods for example), and schedule this activity to repeat three times a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner times). This is just an example, the actual content and schedule can be set up as relevant to your use case.

Click on these and follow the screen that comes up to fill out the fields.
Switch to the Schedule tab and fill out the desired schedule
