Shopping list generator
It takes way too much time to screenshot ingredients lists for recipes and collate the correct quantities before going shopping. Please consider this feature or a collaboration with an App like Paprika.
-
Recipe search!
Please-- in this day and age a recipe search cannot be hard to implement. Your recipe discovery feature would be so much more useful and functional if one could search by ingredient.
-
“Eaten”
Can we have an option to put an item of food as Eaten or Planned. I like some I’m sure plan their food the day before. I put everything. It would be great if I could then tick it as eaten so I can see what I have left
-
Glycemic index (GI)/glycemic load (GL)
Glycemic index (GI)/Glycemic load (GL) Integration into the app would be extremely beneficial and enhance user experience. PLEASE integrate this feature.

Improvement to the piechart?
The one that tells you each day how much carb, fat or protein you've eaten. I'd find it really useful if somewhere on that page was guidance about the percentage of calories that you should eat in each category (I'm just waiting for 97 people to tell me it's already there and I've overlooked it.). Maybe info could come up…

Add Blood Pressure Measurements logging
I've started tracking my blood pressure and it would be great to be able to log it in MFP, probably in the "Check-In" tab right along with weight and body measurements.
-
Timing of meal logging reminders
I continue to get reminders on my Android phone to log a meal AFTER I've just logged that meal. Is there a way to turn off these notifications?
-
Added Sugar Goal
It’s would be great to have a separate goal to track added sugar instead of all sugar. There’s a big difference between the 20g of sugar in an apple vs a chocolate bar
-
For Incorrect Items
Have a place where we can tell you what exactly is incorrect instead of just saying NO & it never gets corrected
-
Auto update Meals when Recipes change
I would like to suggest a change/feature that Meals automatically update when a Recipe is changed which is used inside a Meal. Usecase: I habe multiple recipes which I use for different meals or make a meal out of different recipes. I can than just log the meal in most cases and if needed individual recipes as extra or…

Water reminder
I am terrible at remembering to drink water. Would love to be able to set a reminder(s) through the day as a reminder to drink water (just like the "step in the scale" reminder. I have a tendency to fill the water bottle and it sits on my desk. Would like the option to set custom reminders in the app as well.
-
Create Protien Subgroup
Create a secondary protein group or don't count incomplete proteins in my over all goals. Such as Collagen and Bone Broth. They are essentially zero score proteins and I would like to just focus on complete proteins for my goals.

Manual input of blood sugar readings.
Good day, I apologize if this is already been suggested, or is even already available, but I would like to be able to manually input blood sugar readings. I do not use a sensor, I use the old style finger sticks. Thanks.
-
Search for food measured by weight
A lot of foods are measured in cups, teaspoons, fluid ounces, etc. I use a scale to weigh a lot of my food, and sometimes it's difficult to find a food that is measured in ounces or grams. It would be nice if I could specify in my search that I'm looking for a food that is measured by weight.
-
Edit a scanned food to create custom food
I often can't leverage the barcode scanner feature because the calories are not accurate based on the method my nutritionist recommends (fatx9, carbx4, proteinx4). This makes a key Premium feature basically useless for me unfortunately, and my custom foods list is long and hard to use. I'd love to be able to scan and then…
-
Oura Ring Integration
The Oura ring tracks steps, HRV, stress, sleep, etc. It is used by thousands of people to track their health. I've had mine for over 5 years. I'd love to be able to connect the data on my ring to this app to accurately collect my heart rate, steps, exercise, and sleep . Would you consider adding an integration to the Oura…

Ability to set the Diary tab as my default "home" screen
Currently, the app seems to default to the Dashboard tab. If I switch to Diary, then go to another app and come back, it won't change. But if I leave MyFitnessPal for a while and come back, it'll open to the Dashboard tab. I'd like to be able to set the Diary tab as my default. I prefer the day view because seeing what I…

Macro Goal Numbers & the Printable Diary Report
For easier comparison, bring our Daily Macro "Goal numbers" into the "printable" Diary Report at the bottom by our totals. (similar to how they are on the input page.) And have the ability for the report to do a weekly average of the total macro numbers.

Can I rearrange my recipes by alphabet for the sake of editing?
I know I can get alphabetical recipe list for logging, but I can't seem to organize them alphabetically to edit. It's a huge endeavour once you have a lot of recipes. Thanks.
-
Filters for groups
In order to find the right group it would be helpful to have filters set up to narrow down the search options. It also seems that there are a lot of inactive groups that could use deletion.
-
Water saved to Apple Health
Please consider separating fluids into their own category, estimate the actual water content and import into Apple Health. Look to the Apo Water Reminder for a model. Dislike having to use another app to track my water consumption.
-
Add Orange Theory Input
I work out at Orange Theory and your app does not let me log in really good exercise information from my workouts. Without this information I am losing critical information pertinent to my health fitness journey. If you can't add OTF as a partner, then please allow your app manual input to add the information.
-
Progress Photos Slideshow
It would be cool if you had a feature where we press a button, and the app takes every single one of our progress pictures (or a date range we set) and does a quick slideshow like 10-30 seconds of each photo from oldest to newest so when I look in 6 months, I can see the gradual progress ive made and my transformation over…
-
search recipes by device
I'd like to be able to search recipes by the cooking device I hope to use. If I want to make something at home I may like to look at slow cooker recipes. If I'm at work I may like to look only at healthy recipes using a counter top air fryer. On a hot summer day I might like to search beverage recipes for my personal size…

Reorder meal name categories
I would like to reorder the meal names listed so that they display my meal periods in the application. Currently my meal periods display as breakfast, lunch, dinner, post training, afternoon. I would like the meal periods to display breakfast, post training, lunch, afternoon, dinner. If think if I rename the meal name…

Report for average macros reached vs goal
my coach wants to see my weekly and monthly macros vs the cycle I am in. right now, I can only find a report with numbers by day, no weekly or monthly average. it actually would be good to select a range of days as cycles vary in duration, often for me, 3 weeks.

Create 'Foods' from 'My Meals'
I like creating own meals. Lets say chicken schnitzel. When i log in for dinner, every little ingredient is listed (chicken, flour, greek yoghurt, panko crumbs, parmesan cheese, spray oil) which is fair. But if I can just list 'My Chicken Schnitzel' my dairy wont be so cluttered! Sure I have created a 'Food' from my recipe…

Cycle-linked calorie goals for women
Haven’t seen anyone mention this, so I thought I’d suggest it: it would be really nice to have cycle-adjusted calorie goals for menstrual-age women! Recent research shows women need between 100 and 300 more calories during the week before their period, which I think explains the difficulty a lot of us have sticking to a…
-
Recipes exporter
It would be useful to be able export recipes singly and/or in bulk. I have 300+ recipes in MyFitnessPal but the one I want to refer to can be hard to find. Being able to peruse some data (e.g. a set of recipes in TXT files; or json structures, etc.) would be much easier than the current methods in the app or on the website…
