A Little Guide
for Mama

How to use Daivik's Food Journey
made with love Β· for you

Hi love πŸ’› This is a tiny app I built just for you, so feeding our little Daivik feels less like spreadsheets and more like a sweet daily ritual. Everything the dietician sends β€” every veggie, every dal, every "any fruit of mom's choice" β€” lives here in one place.

You don't need to remember anything. You don't need internet. Just open the app, tap a few things, and the rest takes care of itself. This little guide will walk you through it gently. Take your time. 🌱

1 Getting started

Put the app on your phone

πŸ“± Add it like a real app

So you can tap it from your home screen anytime β€” no typing URLs, no opening browsers.

  1. Open the app link in Chrome (Android) or Safari (iPhone)
  2. Tap the share / menu button (the three dots or the share arrow)
  3. Choose "Add to Home Screen"
  4. Name it "Daivik" πŸ’• and tap Add
  5. Now it sits on your home screen like any other app
πŸ’‘ Quick tip Allow camera and microphone permission when it asks β€” that's for meal photos and voice notes. Your data never leaves your phone.

2 Your daily flow

Three taps a day, that's it

β˜€οΈ

Morning Β· open the app

The first screen β€” Today β€” shows exactly what Daivik should eat today. You'll see Morning, Afternoon, and Evening meals already laid out.

Read the food name. If there's a recipe, tap πŸ“– View recipe steps for a step-by-step card view (easier than reading a paragraph).

βœ“

After feeding Β· log it

Tap the meal card. A circle appears β€” tap it to mark fed. The card turns soft green. 🌿

Want to add more? Tap the meal name itself to expand and you'll get:

πŸ“

Quantity

"5 tsp", "half katori" β€” whatever feels right to you.

πŸ“Έ

Photo of the meal

Tap the dashed box, snap a quick pic. Cute for memories and useful for the dietician.

πŸ˜‹

Mood

Loved it / Okay / Fussy / Refused. One tap.

⚠️

Reactions

Tap if you notice rash, gas, runny nose etc. The app remembers.

πŸ“

Notes

Anything you want to remember. "He grabbed the spoon today!" πŸ’›

πŸŽ™

Voice note

Tap πŸŽ™ Voice note and speak β€” your words become notes. One-handed friendly.

πŸŒ™

End of day Β· that's all

Really. Just close the app. Everything saves automatically. No "save" button to remember, no losing data. ✨

🌸 Gentle reminder If you forget to log a meal β€” totally fine. Open the Plan tab, find the day, and add it later. Some days you'll log every detail, some days nothing. Both are okay.

3 The five tabs

Knowing where everything lives

🏠

Today

What to feed Daivik right now. Auto-knows the date and shows the matching day's meals. Has your streak count, food count, and a πŸ“€ Share shortcut.

πŸ“…

Plan

All 7 weeks of the diet plan. Swipe left/right with the arrows or tap the week name to jump. Each day is a card β€” tap to open. Today's day is highlighted in red so you don't lose track.

πŸ₯¬

Foods

Every vegetable, dal, and fruit organized by section. Tap to mark tried. Long-press (hold for a second) to flag a food that's causing reactions β€” it'll show ⚠ everywhere.

πŸ“Š

Insights

Beautiful charts: how many meals you logged each week, food variety, Daivik's mood pattern, growth over time, and a list of any reactions noted. Lovely to look back at.

πŸ‘Ά

Profile

Daivik's photo, age, growth log (add new weight/length here), reminders setup, RDA targets, milestones, and data export/import.

4 The fun stuff

Little superpowers

πŸ”

Search anything

Tap the magnifying glass at the top. Type "beetroot" or "khichdi" and it finds the meal, the day, the food list entry. Tap a result to jump there.

⚠️

Automatic allergy alerts

If you log a reaction on the same food twice, the app auto-flags it. It'll show a ⚠ banner on the Today screen and red border around that meal across all weeks. So you don't have to remember.

πŸ’‘

"Any vege from the list" β†’ smart suggestions

When the plan says something vague like "any vitamin A rich vege", the Today screen suggests safe options Daivik has already tried (and skips flagged ones). No guessing.

πŸ””

Meal-time reminders

Go to Profile β†’ Reminders β†’ Enable. You'll get gentle nudges at 8 AM, 1:30 PM, and 6 PM. Tap the notification to jump straight to logging.

πŸ“€

Share with the dietician

Tap πŸ“€ Share on the Today screen (or the share quick-card). The app builds a clean summary of the last 7 days β€” meals, moods, reactions, growth β€” and you can copy it, send via WhatsApp, or email. One tap.

πŸ“Š

Export feedback as Excel

Tap the big + button (bottom right) β†’ πŸ“Š Export feedback (Excel). Pick which weeks β†’ download a proper Excel file with your notes neatly tabled. Perfect for the dietician.

πŸ“₯

Adding new weeks

When the dietician sends the next week's Excel file:

Tap + β†’ πŸ“₯ Import week (Excel) β†’ pick the file. The app reads it automatically and adds all the days. ✨

If you only have notes (not Excel), tap ✏️ Add blank week instead and fill in manually.

πŸŒ™

Dark mode for night feeds

Tap the moon icon at the top right. Softer on the eyes when feeding at 2 AM. 🌚

5 Once a week

The weekly ritual

πŸ“

Log Daivik's weight & height

Profile β†’ + Add next to "Growth log" β†’ enter measurements. The chart in Insights builds itself over time. Watching him grow is going to be your favorite chart. πŸ’›

πŸ“€

Send the weekly report

Before your dietician check-in, tap πŸ“€ Share or export the Excel. Saves you typing during the call.

πŸ“¦

Backup (peace of mind)

Once a week, go to Profile β†’ Export data. Save the file in your Google Drive or send it to yourself on WhatsApp. If you ever change phones, you can Import it back.

6 If you wonder...

Little questions

Will I lose my data if I close the app?

No. Everything is saved instantly as you tap. You can close the app, restart your phone, switch off β€” it all stays.

Do I need internet to use it?

No πŸŽ‰ Works completely offline once it's loaded once. Internet only needed if you want to share via WhatsApp/email.

What if I tap something by mistake?

Tap it again to undo. Marked fed by mistake? Tap the green circle to unmark. Wrong mood? Tap it again. Nothing is permanent.

Can dadi or papa also use it on their phones?

They can install it on their phone, but right now each phone has its own data. If you want shared data across phones, ask papa β€” he knows the plan. πŸ˜‰

What if Daivik doesn't eat what's planned?

Totally fine β€” just don't mark it fed, or mark "Refused" mood. The plan is a guide, not a rule. Babies have off days, and your dietician knows that.

What if I miss a few days of logging?

No guilt. None. Just pick up from today. The streak will reset and that's okay. The app is here to help, not stress you out.

The voice note didn't work, why?

Voice notes work best in Chrome (Android) or Safari (iPhone). Make sure you allowed microphone access. If still not working, just type β€” totally fine.

Can I change the reminder times?

Not in the app right now β€” they're set to 8 AM, 1:30 PM, 6 PM. Tell papa if you want different times and he can change them. πŸ’›

Daivik tried something new β€” where do I mark it?

Foods tab β†’ find the item β†’ tap. Done. Or open the meal he ate it in and add it to notes.

What does "flagged" mean exactly?

It means that food might be causing reactions (rash, gas, etc.). The app auto-flags if you log reactions on the same food twice. You can also long-press a food in the Foods tab to flag manually. Flagged foods show ⚠ and a red border so you remember to avoid them or check with the dietician.
