First-time setup
The first time you open Intake, it asks for your goal, your body data and your activity level and works out your daily target from them. You can change all of it later in Settings.
-
Pick your goal: “Lose weight”, “Maintain weight” or “Gain weight”.

Tap “Continue” on “Apple Health” and allow what Intake may read. Without permission, setup carries on anyway.

Choose your activity level and see your daily target.
