Copying my recipes to my husband

sauved

Does anyone know how I would copy my personal recipes over to my husband's account?

You currently can't but they are working on it apparently.

There's a new feature on the app where you can share meals/entries via text message.

Edit: Well, there was. Now I can't find it again.

You don't copy the recipe. But he can copy your meal and have access to the nutritional data.

Such as I did a recipe for chicken nachos. (Chicken, low fat cream cheese, seasonings in teh slow cooker.) I logged my portion for dinner. He viewed my diary, copied my meal to his dinner. Then chicken nachos shows in his food history, he just needs to edit the quantity. And can pull it up again from recent to log leftovers for lunch the next day.

Looking to share recipes with my friends that use the app too! Love the recipe part of the program for getting The nutritional numbers per serving after entering in all the ingredients. My wife and I eat these same recipes so it's a shame we both have to manually enter them.

You can not share recipes directly with another user, and another user will not find your recipes through a search. Your recipes will be displayed in the search results only when you perform a search.

​There is a workaround to log another user's Recipe nutrition information. Once you log a Recipe to one of your Meals, another user who has access to your Food Diary can copy the Meal containing the Recipe item from your Diary to their Diary, then delete any unwanted entries from that copied Meal.
