What % Daily Value means.
Percent Daily Value shows how much a nutrient contributes to a daily diet. A packaged-food label shows it per serving. DailyLabel applies the same concept to everything you have logged for the day.

A number like 245 mg sodium is easier to judge when you can also see how it compares with a daily goal. Daily Values turn a nutrient amount into a quick progress signal.
The dashboard places goals on the left and today's intake on the right. When a value is over the goal, DailyLabel highlights it in red so it is not buried in the rest of the label.
General Daily Values are a starting point. DailyLabel lets you adjust goals, and Pro lets you track additional nutrient definitions when the data source provides them.
