Put Water on the new home page
Most of the time I open MFP it is to add water, now I can’t do that from the home page. Please add an option for that. Being able to customize that page would be useful. For instance, I don’t need a space for steps or energy, I need a spot for water..

Return progress section to app
Most recent iOS app update (the one that added the dashboard) removed the progress section of the app. The section that tracked your weightloss with graphs and tables. You know, a really useful part of the app? Could it be brought back?

Manually add steps
I use a Fossil smart watch to count my steps. That app is not available for connection in MFP. Just let me add my steps manually. I enter everything else manually so why not my steps. :-)

Forced new look
Please allow users to revert to old look of app. I hate when you are forced into a new look and without giving permission. Some people really struggle with technology and I find this has really stressed me out.

Please add Fiber (grams) to the Quick Add Calorie functionality
I like the Quick Add Calories function for when I eat a prepared meal, but fiber is missing from the basic macros, there. Please add it so it can be tracked accurately. Thanks!

Edit nutrition values of a food you choose from database
Many times I search the nutrition database for a match and find an almost match. It would be nice to just add a value or adjust some values that are off rather than having to create a new food. I need to know the potassium values and they are often blank. If I know the value why can’t I just add it or if a value is wrong…

Food plan that can be transferred to diary as food is consumed
I think the biggest shortcoming of MFP is the lack of the forward planning option. I really would like to be able to set up a food plan for a week or two. And then I could check off the items that I consumed and they would move into the daily diary. Planning and tracking is key for success and this would be very…

Don't shift text when add appears
One thing that is very annoying is when I try to enter something in one of the logs. I click on something but the text shifts due to an advertisement causing the shift and then I end up clicking on the wrong thing. This happens a lot since it takes a long time for the advertisements to show up. This can be easily fixed.

Weekly Total
This is primarily a feature for those in maintenance, but would work for those actively trying to lose also. For those that don't necessarily stick to a specific amount of calories each day, on the "Food Diary" page, if there was a field that displayed the planned weekly calorie goal. For instance, I eat 1200 calories/day.…

Nutritional Information
I would like to be able to track more nutrients such as magnesium, Vitamin B, D, iron, and zinc. I would love to be able to choose from an extensive list.
-
Ability to search "Recent" items
This is super simple and I am surprised it is not in the website or app. I have so many recent items, I don't understand why I can't just search by typing in the item to easily pull it up rather than go through pages.

my recipes serving size
when adding my own recipes, it ask how many servings. this is usually something i can't answer. would there be a way to add a serving size that calculates nutrition. exp. my meatloaf, instead of serving 10 it would be helpful if a 3oz. option was available. exp. my potato salad, instead of serving 5 it would be helpful if…

Ditch New Logging Format
The new format of a selected food item immediately being added (instead of being able to review the entire checked foods list for a meal before the list is added) is very inconvenient. Too frequently multiples are added unintentionally. Please go back to the method of being able to review first before the meal or snack is…

“Complete your macros” function
This would be amazing - hear me out…. It’s the end of the day, you have had all your meals and you see you have (for example) 210g carbs, 0 fat, and 12g protein left to eat to fulfill your daily goal for macros. But you have no idea what to eat to get there. Well, MyFitnessPal has an obsurd database that you could use to…

Let Night Shift Users Post Our Food/Exercise Diary in the Morning! **PLEASE READ**
PLEASE add a feature to the food and exercise diary so users who work at night or the overnight shift can post our food and exercise diaries to our newsfeeds! The diary will only post a short while after midnight. Some of us are at work late at night (doctors, nurses and other medical personnel, police and ambulance,…

Food
Hello, is it possible to mark food off as eaten throughout the day, i bulk add my meals and prep on a Sunday but it would be nice to be able to mark foods off as consumed ie I ‘budget’ for four cups of tea a day but they come at irregular hours so to mark them off as drank would be good, if possible and also the times at…

Combined Report: Weekly Cals vs Weight Loss
I've been losing weight since August 2020. Usually slowly and steadily but not always. I thought it would be helpful to see a graph that shows my calories consumed as well as my weight lost. That would help me assess where I've been most successful - maybe even see the "sweet spot" of caloric intake for my personal self to…

Option to "check" (✅) individual foods and whole meals after consuming them.
I always preplan what I will eat the day before. I love doing that, but it can be confusing at times to remember what I actually ate and didn't eat yet (especially after studying and such.. I'm very dizzy). I'd like an option to check/tick (✅) a logged food, to indicate that I actually ate it, and an option to check/tick…

Separate volume and weight input fields in "Submit a New Food" and "Enter New Recipe" UIs
I've noticed that many food items that are added are entered in either a volume (e.g. cup, fluid ounce, ml, tablespoon, etc.) OR a weight (e.g. gram, ounce, etc.). Often in packaged food both values are given and would probably be more likely to be provided if the option was made easy and obvious. My personal preference is…

add an option for entering mg or percentages for vitamin a, c, d, iron, and calcium.
I was double checking my vitamins to see what information was listed in the app compared to the bottle; and it seems that companies usually list the dosages of each ingredient in mg instead of a percentage. I found that lots of vitamins that have been entered in the database already have put in the mg count instead of…

Improved support for bariatric diets
I'm currently recovering from bariatric surgery and I'm finding there's a bit of a disconnect between what myfitnesspal wants to track, and what my nutritionist wants me to track. At this point I'm really only tracking protein and water and nothing else. Some individual features that would help: -Support water content of…

Allow total macros consumed or macros left on diary overview
I'm using MFP to try to hit my protein goals each day, and stay within a calorie range. Rather than seeing an overview of my macros "left," counting down, I'd like to see a status of my macros consumed. This would allow MFP to be less diet focused for individuals who are taking a more flexible approach. I'll also find…

Ad free tier with no other premium features
I'd be willing to pay for an experience without the terrible ads, but im not sure I want all the other premium features yet. So how about a reduced cost middle option with no extra features, you pay to remove ads only?

Total Added Sugar for the Day
It would be awesome to have a break down of sugars or at least total added sugar under day view in the nutrients tab. I see where the individual foods will have added sugar content, but when you look at nutrients for the day it only shows overall sugar and not added sugars.

Likes and such
It would be great if we can see what member put a like or hug, etc on our comments.

Closing out the day with less than 1200 calories
Please allow us to close out the day with less than 1200 calories. I calculated my TDEE, and because of my height( and probably age 🙃) my TDEE is low. I'm trying to stay in a 500 calorie deficit a day to loose a pound a week. That puts me at 1000 calories.

Time Tracking
I'm probably anal, but I'd like to see tracking what time of day food intake occurs. I think this would be helpful.

Create recipe from my foods
Currently the only way to add ingredients to a recipe is adding through the web or bulk. I’d like to see an option somewhere that allows me to use food items that I’ve created (in the My meals, recipes, and food section). This will save me time when creating my recipes as I won’t have to look through a long list of search…

Ability To Add Own Exercises & Photo Examples To Workout Routines
While I’m not a total exercise newbie, I have yet to memorize the names of every exercise I could possibly do and exactly how to perform them. I was ecstatic when I saw we now have the ability to build a workout routine (thank you MFP!), and I know some exercises have example videos on how to do them already, but that only…

Nutrition and Note buttons
It would be great if the two buttons could be anchored at the top, to avoid scrolling down all the time to find them. I choose my foods based on macros so I am always checking the levels using the nutrition button
