# Repeat: Re-log Meals You've Already Had

Eat the same lunch most weekdays? Living off leftovers? **Repeat** lets you re-log a meal you've already tracked in a single tap. No retyping, no re-photographing. Hoot pulls everything from the original log (foods, photos, calories, macros) and adds it to your day.

Repeat is free for every Hoot user. No subscription needed.

# Where to Find It

Tap the **+** button on your dashboard to open the log picker. You'll see four logging options:

* **Photo**: snap or upload
* **Text or voice**: type or speak it
* **Repeat**: re-log a meal you've had before
* **Favorites**: your saved go-tos

Tap the circular arrow icon to open Repeat.

# How It Works

1. Tap the **Repeat** icon
2. Scroll your recent meals, sorted newest first, or use **Search recent** to jump to a specific one
3. Tap a meal to select it. Tap as many as you want.
4. Hit **Add logs** at the bottom

Each selected meal gets re-logged for **today**. The meal type (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack) is set automatically based on the time you re-log, so a meal you originally had for lunch yesterday might be re-logged as dinner if you tap Repeat at 7pm tonight. Need it to be something different? Quick Adjust handles it.

# Repeat Shines When You:

* Are eating leftovers from yesterday
* Meal prep and have the same lunch all week
* Order the same coffee or smoothie most mornings
* Have a breakfast routine you don't think about
* Want to copy a whole day of meals from earlier in the week

Because you can pick multiple meals at once, Repeat is especially handy for meal preppers and creatures of habit. Re-log Monday's full day on Tuesday morning if your week looks the same.

# Repeat vs. Favorites

Both let you reuse meals, but they work differently.

**Repeat** is automatic. Every meal you log shows up here, organized chronologically with the most recent on top. Nothing to set up.

**Favorites** are curated. You explicitly star the meals you want to keep around forever: your morning smoothie, your go-to protein bowl, your kid-friendly dinner. Tap the star icon on any log to save it as a Favorite.

The short version: **Repeat is for meals you ate recently. Favorites are for meals you eat all the time.**

# Need to Tweak Something After You Repeat?

After re-logging, tap the meal and use **Quick Adjust** to change anything: portion size, ingredients, the meal type, or the date. Repeating a Lunch as a Snack? One sentence and you're done.

# The Bottom Line

The fastest log is the one you've already done. Repeat takes meals you've tracked before and puts them one tap away, solo or in batches.
