Space to reflect
I would like to see a space at the end of each day where we “write”/put down our thoughts how we feel, what went well and what didn’t. This way we can look back a specific days choices and see how we thought previous.

Restore the Edit icon
On Android, at least, there used to be an Edit icon (a pencil) at the top of the Diary screen. This was recently replaced with a lightning icon showing my current streak. I could not care less about my streak, but I edit my diary all the dang time. Now I have to go into the menu and select ‘edit’ to do so. It’s an extra…

Please fix the exercise calorie burn calculator
Recently all my regular exercises are counting for 1/4 of the regular amount of calories burned for each exercise. Please fix this. I tried going through customer support and got no where. Thanks.

Interesting idea
I’ve got an idea for making gym workouts great and easy need the right network of people to make it happen

Nutrient view per meal rather than day
Hi, I recently started a snapchat private story where anyone who felt comfortable could join as a shadow along my fitness journey. I urged that I would be posting my eating habits, counting my calories/macros, my workout routines, and so on. Many people joined and it gave me motivation to post more throughout the day. Now…

Suggestion for Android app re Scanner
Love the fact that you can scan foods. Saves a lot of time. The problem is, unless I have missed something, you can only scan something into a particular meal, i.e. lunch or dinner. It would be much more convenient to scan everything as I unload groceries. In addition, and this is a problem with mobile and desktop, I…

Water Goal
Is there a way to change my water goal? Thanks.

Recipe Serving sizes/amounts and ability to make notes
I really enjoy a lot of features about MyFitnessPal, but it would be so helpful if we could specify serving sizes when we create recipes. I hoped being on the computer compared to the mobile version would allow it but I didn't see where that was available on my computer either. A spot to make notes about recipes would also…

News Feed
Let us pick some discussion categories we like, and provide a feed of recent posts (like Facebook, reddit) so that we can see what people are posting without having to enter multiple pages. :)

Grams of the way to go
I wish that more of the foods had the option of recording the number of grams that you are using. Some do, but some do not as well. Whenever I can I set the unit of measure to 1 g. That I use my kitchen scale to measure how much I am eating in grams and I record that. This tends to give me a finer level of control.

Nutrient Dashboard
Can you make it so you can add more than 3 nutrients in the dashboard?? I want to see the carbs, fats and protein but also want to glance at my sugar, cholesterol and fibre without the extra clicking.
-
Auto Unit Conversion/Filter
Today I saw a unit called a pouch 1 pouch of salmon, I saw spoons and cups and handfuls and Oz what's with all these nonsensical units can we please filter? Or auto conversion? I just want grams there's enough spam and options as is when I search lettuce there's 90000 results I don't need to see cups and spoons of lettuce…

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.

Search Diary for Text String in Foods
It would be nice to have a search box for the diary. The thought is to be able to type in a text string, and have MFP show me (from my diary history) the line items where the food name has that text string in it. I'd like it to have a link to jump to date(s) in the diary where that text string appears. The point would be…

Maintenance calories
By reading your weight and body fat from Apple health, the app should be able to calculate your current maintenance calories and estimate calories intake to gain or loss weight according to the user objective. Example, your average weight has been 70 kg and you have eaten 2000 calories daily without gaining additional…
-
More fasting options
I am sure that fasting should be much more updated. Like adding options like 24h fast or atleast custom fast option. Maybe incorporate fasting phases or estimate calculations of what is happening with your body depending on how many hours you are fasting. In that way updating calorie goals etc etc.
-
Recipe per gram instead of portion
When you want to make a dish, you are asked how many portions the recipe refers to, but if you work with the ingredients you have at home, it can be difficult to know exactly how many "portions" a dish will be. My suggestion is to add up all the ingredients to find out the total nutritional value per gram so you can…
-
50% Exercise Calories Add
When I walk calories are added to my daily goal. It has been my experience that it is a wash. The calories added equal 100% of the calories burned. Not a good way to lose weight. I would like to recommend that the AP have a 50% calories add button. That way, I am adding calories from exercise but only half the amount. This…
-
Track Salt
Sodium and salt are not the same thing, people incorrectly write the salt details under sodium. Salt is one of the main things written on packaging colour wheels, and as someone who is now trying to reduce salt intake due to health reasons a salt nutrition section would be ideal.

Easier Viewing
Many of the screens can be viewed in landscape mode, but the main screen won't rotate. I cannot read some of the information because it's all squished into a small area and the writing goes on top of other writing.

List more nutrients for tracking
It would be great if you could add to the nutrients list and make it a more complete vitamin, amino acid, and mineral panel.

Add "Duplicate Recipe" (and Meal)
I often bounce between a couple of recipes that differ in only one component or two. Being able to duplicate an existing recipe then change only those elements would be a time-saver. Same for meals. Thanks for your consideration!
-
Food Database / Ingredient search
I know other people have mentioned it (and you have a need to make money as a company) but having access to barcode scanner as a free user would be extremely helpful and probably cut down on the multiple incorrect and duplicated food entries helping to resolve issues with the current crowdsourced food database and reduce…

separate servings from nutritional information per xx and trace amounts
I've noticed a lot of people tend to put in the serving size as whatever is stated as the nutritional information per weight i.e. 100 grams when a serving is 25 grams so having a separate serving size from what the nutritional informations is stated in i.e. per 100 gram would be useful i.e. being able to input the…

Collapsible ingredient options for recipes/meals while in food diary
I've noticed some suggestions hinting to something similar, for me personally when I'm cooking sometimes I would find it easier if I want to check items in a recipe while in the food diary for a collapsible ingredient option. I.e. to check what's in the ingredients without needing to change anything. Alternatively for the…

Newsfeed refreshing, ect
When viewing the newsfeed, if you click on a post to see the comments then back out, it refreshes you to the top of your newsfeed so you have to constantly keep scrolling back down to where you left off. The blogs come in one big chunk, making your other newsfeed posts less visible. The comment text box blocks part of the…

Add a One-click Maintenance Day Option to the food log
Even when working toward my general goal of weight loss, there are days where I switch to maintenance calories (sick, special occasion, plateau, whatever). Most people I know who are working on a weight loss goal do this as part of healthy and sustainable approach. The only way to do this right now is to update the goals…

Frames????
Could you please get some web programmers that 1 actually use the site and see how the ads (which I understand the need for) should be in a non-dynamic frame or load them before everything else, so the webpage does not jump when I go to click. make the advertisers comply with a dimension and not frustrate the users that…

Question:
If I scan a bar coded item that is not already in your database, do you, or would it be possible to add that item to your database? Could I add that barcode when I type in the details?

Allow us to add other fasting combinations
So, as of now the app allows for three variations on fasting. Let us add other combos. For example, right now there is 12-12, 10-14, and 6-18. Why not 8-16 or 4-20? Or even 24-48 or other multi-day fasts? It doesn't appear to me that you are doing anything more than recording the fast
