Tracking your weight
Go to the Progress tab and enter your current weight. You can also update it via Profile → "Current weight" field.
Changing your goal
Open Profile → Weight goal to change your Goal Weight and Weekly Goal. If Welmi calculates your calorie goal, changing your weekly pace recalculates your daily calories and macros. A calorie goal you set yourself stays as you set it.
Understanding calorie and macro targets
Your targets are calculated from your current weight, height, age, goal, and the activity level you chose during onboarding. If your goal is weight loss, the calorie deficit is already built into the number shown — you do not need to subtract anything manually.
The activity level can't be changed in the current version of the app. To set your own calorie and macro targets instead, go to Profile → Calories & Macros. For personalized nutrition advice, use the Coach tab.

Burned calories and activity
The Home screen shows consumed calories vs burned calories. Detailed breakdowns are available in the Nutrition section.
If Add Burned Calories is on, your daily calorie limit increases automatically on active days. Turn it on or off in Profile → Calories & Macros.
Body Scan
Body Scan is available in the Progress tab. It is a separate in-app purchase — it is not included in the Pro subscription. The purchase is one-time and grants permanent access.
Privacy: Photos are NOT stored by Welmi. They are sent to the server for analysis but are not saved.
Results appear in the Progress tab under the Body Scan banner.
Tips for accurate scans: - Use good, even lighting - Ensure your full body is visible in the frame - Wear form-fitting clothing or minimal clothing - Scan in the same conditions each time for consistency
Body Scan score
The score ranges from 0 to 100 and is based on your age, sex, and body composition. A higher score indicates a better result relative to your demographic group.
Track the score over time rather than fixating on a single number. Results can vary 30–50 points between sessions due to differences in lighting, posture, angle, and clothing. Always scan under the same conditions for reliable comparisons.
AI Health Report
The AI Health Report is bundled with Body Scan as part of the Welmi AI Bundle — a one-time purchase with lifetime access. The AI Bundle does not include meal scanning or the food diary (those require Pro).
Weekly and monthly reports
Weekly and monthly summaries of your calories are not yet available. There is no calorie report for a period, and the app shows calorie data one day at a time. Daily counters for calories, macros, and water reset each day. This feature has been requested and is under consideration.
To review a past day, open the Nutrition tab, tap the calendar icon in the top-left corner or the date next to it to pick the day, then tap Journal (on the new home screen: View all > next to Meals Logged). Your entries there are grouped by meal. Your weight trend and weigh-in history are in the Progress tab.
Exporting your data
You can't export your data yet. There is no export to CSV, Excel, or any other file format. To review your food entries, use Nutrition → Journal as described above. Data export has been requested and is under consideration.

Frequently asked questions
How do I log my weight? Go to the Progress tab and enter your current weight.
How do I change my calorie goal? Enter your own number in Profile → Calories & Macros. Welmi keeps a number you set yourself and doesn't recalculate it automatically.
My calorie target seems wrong. Targets are profile-based. Make sure your weight, height and age are accurate. The activity level you chose during onboarding can't be changed in the current version of the app; to adjust the target, enter your own number in Profile → Calories & Macros. If it feels too low on active days, you can also turn on Add Burned Calories there. Use the Coach tab for personalized advice.
Is Body Scan included in Pro? No. Body Scan is a separate one-time purchase (part of the AI Bundle).
Is there a weekly or monthly summary? Not for calories yet. You can review each day in Nutrition → Journal. This feature is under consideration.
Can I export my data, for example to CSV or Excel? Not yet. There is no data export in any format. See Exporting your data above.
Where do I find Body Scan after purchasing? In the Progress tab.
