Reverse adding
I have a feature idea that would enhance the user experience of MyFitnessPal: what if we could adjust the quantity of any food in the app to head our exact calorie/macro goal? Like, say if I’ve got 15 cal left and I want to fit a snack into that—the app could calculate how much of that snack meets the goal. It’s a reverse…

New Section for Vitamins and Supplements?
It would be handy if there was a separate section in the diary to log my daily vitamins and supplements. Right now I add them to the Snack section, but that just makes that section too busy. Thanks!

Weight Per Serving for Imported Recipe
Once a recipe is imported, the macros are divided by servings, so I have to estimate my serving size to determine my macros. It would be nice if based on the ingredients in my recipe, I could still choose grams or other measures. This way I can cook my recipe, weight my portion, and input based on weight.

Ensure non-alcoholic “beer” isn’t tracked as alcohol
I have been working very hard to not drink alcohol, so I was surprised to see that I had 2 alcoholic beverages in my weekly summary. Very disappointed about that. Perhaps a check box could be enabled by users when logging an alcoholic beverage to get around needing to figure out how the system would know that a “corona”…

Quick Add
I wish we could type in what food item we are adding when using the quick add feature. There are times I ate a whole buck of different snacks/appetizers/hor d’ourves at a party or whatever and just want to quick add an estimate of calories using the quick add. Being able to quick add calories is fine but it’d be great to…

Steps
It would be really great if we could write on exercise our steps. As there are many step trackers that don't connect with the app.
-
Be able to make recipes searching within your own inputted ingrediants
or from your frequently used foods, instead of having to search the database again to see what ingrediants have the right nutritional information
-
When adding a food, compare macros of several options
When adding a food to a meal, allow user to compare the macros two or more items. For example, compare honey and maple syrup, compare avocado to olive oil, chicken breast to chicken thighs, etc
-
Add Vitamin D tracking
It would be nice to learn how much vitamin D we are getting from our diets so we know when to cut back or augment supplements.

Search feature in Recipe Section
A search feature in Recipe Section based on ingredient. I've sometimes forgotten to bookmark a recipe and struggle to find it again.

Wish the sugars were broken down
I’m over for sugar for the day but it’s all fruit sugar… is there a way to set guidelines for fructose and sucralose and added sugars?
-
Create Favorites Section for foods
Most of us eat much of the same foods in the span of weeks. We stock our pantries or shop for them regularly. It is inefficient & time consuming to have to search for the foods again and again. Most recent foods is not cutting it either for me. I'd really like to be able to "save to favorites" foods that have 1) proper…

Quit removing features
I've been a member for over a decade. Throughout that time I've seen a number of features come and go. Some were available to free users and then put behind a pay gate (like barcode scanning) and others that were simple everyday ease of use features like "most recent" and "most frequent". Both of these have disappeared…

Import of water intake from Apple Health ASAP
Another for importing of logged in water intake from Apple Health. Already logging automatically from Hidrate Spark…won’t do it again in another app manually which means I also won’t opt for a higher tier license of this app without this feature. But if it’s there…I definitely will! Suggest doing this real quick! Many of…

Add categorization by Caloric Density
The caloric density is a useful metric that helps focusing my food consumption on products that are healthier - more fruits and vegetables, whole grain, etc. Having my diary breakdown by caloric density, alongside the existing macro nutrients, will be very useful to me, to keep track of my diet.

Add Manual Entry for Steps
I have an old style pedometer - no blue tooth! I just want a place to manually enter the total at the end of the day. Thank you!
-
Fix the search function
I have tried searching things like "snacks" or "binge" and barely any if any results come up in search. I don't know if you have changed it, or you are working on something now, but it would be good to be able to search a topic before making a thread about it that may have already been done a hundred times. Thank you

Units, meals by weight, and simpler reuse of previous entries for improved workflow
Hi there, I've been a fan of MyFitnessPal for quite some time, and it's been a game-changer in managing my diet during periods with a calorie-restricted diet. I use it intensively when on a calorie-restricted diet but often leave it when not 100% focused on my diet since it becomes simply too much work. However, I've got a…

Searching for a food in your food diary
I would love it if you could be able to search for a certain food in your food diary so you could see how many times you've had it in say the past week or month. For instance, I'll buy a tub of something and I won't want to painstakingly weigh or measure out a portion but I'll guess, oh, that's about a tenth of a tub, etc.…

Website - Add Green Shield Feature
The app has a filter option on the food list to only show 'Green Shield' items. Please add this feature to the website food list selection screen.

Calorie deficit suggestions - App feature?
Hey there, I'm new to the app and was wondering if there is a seamless option for the app to offer food options when you're in a caloric deficit after an intense workout day based on the consumption history of the user. I did a brief search and couldn't find anything in the community chat topics, but perhaps I was…

Intermittent Fasting Start time and end time options
Almost 100% of the time that I go into the app to start my intermittent fasting I have to manually set it to the time of my last logged meal. Sometimes this is a few hours later at the end of my day. It would be a nice simple enhancement for the app to default the start time that the last meal I logged. This is by its very…

Intermittent fasting options
Hello, I use intermittent fasting and am happy to see the app has some functionality toward it. However, I do shift work, so not being able to finish a fast in the morning to then start again before a night shift is currently not possible in the app, as it sees two instances of fasting in one day, which it blocks. I tried…

Product filter by country
I track my food intake daily. It's annoying that I have to scroll through products that are not available in my country. It would be useful to have the ability to 1/ tag a product with a country of availability- this will allow for 1 product to be available in multiple countries 2/ in the food diary search be able to…

Add salt as an option in nutrition info or salt to sodium converter
Hi all. I saw an old post discussing adding salt to the nutrition info, from a few years ago. It wasn't in the feature forum, and I couldn't find another recent post discussing the matter. In the UK, most things are labelled with salt content, not sodium. I've found that this leads to a lot of incorrect entries for food,…

Supplements
It be great if you could log your daily supplements like you do your daily food intake.

Meal Planner with access to 'my meals'
The meal plans are currently limited to the MyFitnessPal recipes. Access to a blank meal planner that we can then pull our own recipes, along with the MF recipes, into would make weekly meal planning much easier and avoid having to use other apps or spreadsheets. Being able to scroll across a whole week that easily and…

Should "zombie threads" be retired?
So often someone responds to a thread that is 2 or 5 or ten or more years old. I know on some sites there is a time limit before stopping new posts, like if there has been no activity for a year there is a message that new posts are not accepted and to start a new thread. I'm not talking about the important info in the…

New recipe infedients search same as diary
It would be cool if the search, when using new recipe would use the same cached sewrch from diary as the ingredients are usually the same. Also I would like to mix the recipes, use previous recipe in new recipe to refresh some food.

Wish List
I have 2 ideas that (at least for me) would improve my MFP usage. 1) I have PAGES of recipes in My Recipe Box. Please add a sort feature so when I update the recipe I can find it more easily than paging through (I often make changes to weights/measures in recipes). 2) If I scan in a product, PLEASE add it to My Foods.
