To ensure our product team can use your suggestions, we have a couple of guidelines, to ensure you get the best out of this section:* It is essential all ideas include a user story, that is, what is the problem and why you think this feature is needed.

Bring back and improve the confetti
On the phone app, there used to be a lovely bit of confetti if I entered a lower weight at check-in. What happened to this? Please consider reviving this feature, and make it so that you can set whether confetti goes off for gaining or for losing weight (assuming that some folks want to gain weight, though it seems likely…

Recipe Split Improvement Idea
I want to suggest that, for the recipes I create, I would like to be able to input a portion of, for example, 5.5 portions, not just 5 or 6. Sometimes, it doesn’t quite workout to be 6 for example and I want to be able to have 5 full portions and one half portion, which MyFitnessPal would auto calculate for me, then I…
-
Dashboard
Please consider allowing an option to turn off the dashboard on each app load. It is not interesting when it and all of the pop ups that come with it, are forced on users over and over and over through the day. It is a huge nuisance to have multiple clicks and extra screen loading time literally ever time this app…
-
Bring back old layout
The new version of the app is awful to use. It’s much harder to view and add items, and copying previous foods is a hassle. This change makes no sense, it’s a stupid update that ruins the user experience just for the sake of appearance.
-
Need a way to handle deleted foods
II don't see a way to delete or recover deleted foods and there's never been a way to manage the deleted foods list ( i.e., alphabetically sort the list, remove something permanently). Long overdue improvement needed!

Add Fiber Percentage/Value
Is it possible to add the percentage of fiber in a breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snack meal alongside carbs, fats, and protein?
-
Add Fiber to Food Diary
There's plenty of room on the Food Diary for a Fiber column. Being able to calculate Net Carbs is very important. Fiber prevents spikes in blood sugar, helps you feel full longer and promotes healthier bowel movements. All nutrition labels show the fiber count. Tallying only Carbohydrates just isn't all that important to…

Allow to copy any meal from any day to any meal of today
So in the past, we were able to copy any meal of any day into the corresponding meal of "today" and move the ingredients to a different meal. Main use case was when eating leftovers at lunch from a dinner done the days before, or copy a breakfast from a few days prior as, like many people, I have a few regular breakie but…

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
-
“Added Sugar” Goals
We can currently only set goals for total sugar intake. I am specifically trying to track my added sugars and keep them below 25 grams a day as is recommended by your nutritionist. I appreciate that I can now see Added Sugars, in the nutritional information but would really like to set a specific goal to make it easier to…
-
Added Sugar vs Natural Sugar
Please add the ability to track and easily see added sugar vs natural sugar. As everyone knows added sugar is the real enemy and not having an easy way to see how much added sugar vs natural sugar I consume is frustrating. I use an app to make tracking easy. I pay for an app to make them even easier. But the lack of this…

Astonishing results from my new regime.
Hey all, Before I say this I will point out that I am not any sort of professional trainer or anything like that (Far from it). I would like to share something that honestly has had astonishing results for me and my wife. A little bit of info also before I start… I had Diverticulritis and was given metronidazole (flagyl in…

Go back to what you had before the last ipdate
the app used to be very simple and much more informative. The dashboard had all the info you needed in one place and focussed only on the current day. Why did you eliminate the dashboard and put in 7 days worth of useless info that requires 6 or 7 steps to add meal information. This is probably the worst “upgrade” I have…

iOS control center button for quick action
As a daily MyFitnessPal user who tracks meals, water intake, and exercise throughout the day, I want to be able to access core MyFitnessPal functions directly from the iOS Control Center. This would allow me to log data or check my progress instantly, without the friction of unlocking my phone, finding the app/homescreen…

Syncing with Coros
Anyone know if there are plans to have Coros watches sync with myfitnesspal? As it stands now, I either have to do a manual entry or make sure it's in strava.

Ability to write what the quick add was
when scanning a barcode and it doesn’t register I will use quick add with the calorie info from the label it would be good to be able to write what that was for future reference wwtc

Nutrients
can you please add phosphorus to the nutrients list? Some of us have kidney disease and need to track this nutrient. It will facilitate better accuracy when entering our own recipes. Thanks

Fast 800 options
Hi there I follow the Fast 800 diet, which going by Facebook and other platforms is very popular. However for so long I (we) can not end the day and get any statistics as MFP says we haven’t had enough calories and tells me I should have at least 1000. I think when we pay for the premium, these functions should be…

App launch pains
Please consider decreasing the steps to get to the screen where users are taking action in this app. It literally take 7 clicks and 5 swear words, 4+ times a day to get to my diary to log food literally every time I open the app. This is not only unpleasant but a huge waste of end user time and usability. I am getting the…
-
Convert/default to metric
Many of mfp users aren't Americans. We do not have a cup of tomatoes, we have a tomato or 100g of tomato. So please when offering suggestions to non US users, do convert to measured something that non Americans use daily or default to the non imperial choice when available (it often is). Even in the UK, food is measured…

Disable streaks
Why is there no way to disable streaks? I’m so sick of casually using this app and each streak, I get popups after the first entry. It gets soooo old. I’ve had 180 day streaks before, IDGAF about these little ones
-
Check the accuracy of ingredients or publicly available recipes and meals
Too many items clearly do not have all the information (macros) are they are widely inaccurate (sometimes the info for 100g is listed as for 1g for example) Please could you weed out your system from all the junk and maybe have someone check recipes and meals made public before they go in the wild?
-
Extra cell
Good morning, It would be nice to have a cell where we could add a daily note. Something where we can track a personal status, it could be a broken leg, a trip, a holiday, a lot of stress, medications… gaining weight isn’t always linked to food only. What do you think? Thanks
-
Recipe idea
I filled warmed Trader Joe’s corn tortillas with heated canned rinsed black beans and chopped 1/4 tomato, cabbage and carrots. I forgot the frozen corn but there was no more room left anyways for my tacos! I ate three tacos.
-
EGYM App
the EGYM app shows it can connect to MyFitnessPal app. I don’t believe my MyFitnessPal app brings in the exercise data. The EGYM app is pretty popular now, I would recommend that MyFitnessPal app take a look at possibly linking. Thanks.

Android Meal Scan Photo Upload
IOS has the option of uploading a photo to the meal scanner. I would love to see this feature on Android please. I don't always have the time to edit the AI suggestions. I'd also love to see the picture on my diary.

Font Size is a problem
Help! I just joined and I find the font size way too small for the whole app. I adjusted my font size for my phone apps, but this one doesn’t change. It is going to be a deal breaker I’m afraid. I have a paid membership so I thought maybe I would be able to personalized the fonts, etc. 😟
-
can we have more than 6 meal names please
we can currently only have max 6 meal names. can we please have the option to have more meals for our unique needs? I eat 6-7 times a day and would like extra "meals" where I can add separately from food my supplements / drinks /junk food snacks I hate cramming everything

Add Housework to fitness area
I would love to see regular household chores added to the fitness area. Vacuuming, mopping, mowing the lawn. They may not be hard core but they do burn calories.

Highliting the Totals line, making the table more neat
I see someone finally added those percentage values for macros right below the newly introduced macros graph (line graph at the top of the new version). Thanks for listening! Although, a circle or PIE graph was much much better. I would recommend to HIGHLIGHT the whole TOTALS line at the botom of the food diary, so that…
