Without logging in, the user is able to use the BMI and Recipes tab on the navigation bar.

• The BMI tab allows the user to input their weight and height to calculate their BMI. The user will be provided with their BMI category and if it is outside of the normal range, the user will be provided with additional information on how many pounds the user is away from normal weight range.
• The Recipes tab allows the user to search recipes; a list of recipes will appear where the user is able to click the "View Recipes" button to view the full recipe.

Logged in users have additional features where on the Recipes screen, the user is able to log their meals for the day.

• The Food Journal page allows the user to view and delete meals for the day and also view meals which were added this week
• The Home screen allows the user to track their progress day by day (up to 7 days) visualized in bar and line charts.
