# Daily targets

> Set your daily calories, protein, carbs and fat, for every day from now or just for some days.

Targets are what each day's totals are measured against: calories, protein, carbs and fat.

## Change your targets

1. Touch and hold the totals, then tap Edit targets.

2. Choose a target and turn the wheel, or tap the number to type it.

1. Touch and hold the totals at the top of the journal and tap **Edit targets**. You can also open **You** and tap **Daily targets**.
2. Tap a target, then turn the wheel to change it, or tap the number to type it.
3. Tap **Save from today**.

## Choose which days

The range at the top says which days a change covers. Tap its end to choose:

- **Onward**: from the selected day on, until you change them again.
- **Only this day**: a one-off, such as a long hike or a celebration.
- **Until a date…**: for a stretch of days, such as a holiday.

Earlier days always keep the targets they had, so past days are judged by their own targets.

## Keep calories and macros together

**Calories & macros** shows what your macros add up to. Protein and carbs count 4 kcal a gram and fat 9 kcal a gram. When the two don't match, Splot offers to set your calories to match your macros, or to share your calories into a balanced split.

## Show, hide or stop

- **Show on journal** turns the totals bars on or off. Hidden targets still apply, and connected assistants keep using them.
- **Stop tracking targets** ends targets from the selected day, for a journal without numbers.

## From your body details

Open **You** and tap **Body** to update your weight, height, age, sex or activity, then tap **Save changes**. When the new details suggest different targets from today's, Splot asks **Update your targets?**: choose **Use new targets** to apply them from today, or **Keep current targets**. Your body details are saved either way, and are only used to work out targets.

## Good to know

- Targets are a journal setting, not medical advice. Splot is for adults 18 and older.
- A connected assistant can read your targets to plan meals around them, and change them when you ask.
