The Journal View

The Journal View

The journal is a chronological feed of every entry for a given day — nutrition, activities, workouts, and your daily audit — sorted by when each event happened, not when you logged it.

Where to Find It

The journal appears on the Log screen, below the input area. Open the Log tab and scroll past the text and camera inputs to see the day’s entries. You can navigate to previous days using the date controls.

What You See

Each entry type displays different information:

Entry TypeSourceDetails Shown
Nutrition (text/voice)Your input + AI parsingFood name, calories, macros, meal type, time eaten
Nutrition (photo)Photo + AI vision analysisFood name, calories, macros, photo thumbnail, time eaten
ActivityYour input + AI categorizationActivity description, category, time performed
Workout (HealthKit)Synced from Apple HealthWorkout type, duration, calories burned, heart rate, source app
Daily AuditRubric scoring systemYour score for the day with a summary

Photo entries display a small thumbnail of the original image alongside the parsed nutritional data.

HealthKit workouts show a badge indicating the source app (e.g., Apple Fitness, Strava, Peloton). These entries are read-only because the source of truth is Apple Health. Workouts you log manually through Rubric as activities can be edited.

Sort Order

Entries are sorted by when the event occurred — the time you ate, performed the activity, or started the workout. If you log breakfast at noon, it still appears in its correct chronological position in the morning. Your daily audit appears at the bottom of the feed.

Editing and Deleting

Tap an entry to view its full details and make changes. Swipe left on an entry to delete it.

Entries within the 3-day rolling window are editable. After 72 hours, entries are finalized and the journal displays a banner at the top: “This day is locked and cannot be edited.” This applies to all entry types except HealthKit workouts, which are always read-only regardless of age.

For more on why entries lock, see Daily Check-Ins and the 3-Day Window.

Variance Indicators

Some nutrition entries display a small variance badge (shown as a plus-minus value) indicating the AI’s uncertainty in the estimate. Higher variance entries may show a “Verify” button, prompting you to review and adjust the estimate through the Universal Resolver.
