Quick Actions
Quick action buttons at the bottom of your dashboard let you log information with just one tap. Here's how to use each one.
Log Dose
The primary action button for recording injections.
When to use: Immediately after taking your injection
What it does:
- Opens the dose logging screen
- Shows a body map for injection site selection
- Records the dose with timestamp
- Updates your countdown timer
Quick Logging
If you're in a hurry, you can log a dose in under 5 seconds: tap Log Dose → tap injection site → tap Confirm.
Add Weight
Track your weight to see trends over time.
When to use: Best logged at the same time each day (most people choose morning, before eating)
What it does:
- Opens the weight entry screen
- Shows your previous weight for reference
- Records the new measurement
- Updates your weight chart
Tips for accurate tracking:
- Use the same scale each time
- Weigh at the same time of day
- Log weekly or daily, whichever you prefer
Add Water
Track your daily water intake to stay hydrated.
When to use: Throughout the day as you drink
What it does:
- Opens the water logging screen
- Shows preset amounts (8oz glass, 16oz bottle, etc.)

Why track water? GLP-1 medications work better when you're well-hydrated, and tracking helps ensure you're drinking enough.
