Vida is capable of tracking calorie intake, steps, exercise, meals, heart rate, sleep, and much more! Curious about tracking something? Just ask your coach! Many trackers will need to be turned on by the coach before you can get started.

Your trackers can be found on the Home Screen. You may need to scroll down to see it on your screen:

Please note: Some program-based trackers are automatically added to your list. (E.G. you may already see a blood sugar tracker if you’re in our Whole Health program).

For the instructions below, we’ll use the sugar tracker (found under Nutrition) as an example.
