The diary screen is why I launch the app 99% of the time. How do I make the app open on this screen instead of the widget busyboard?

    If you launch the app itself directly, I don't think you can.
    However, if you use the widget, that will take you straight to the diary.

    I just tried that, the widget still goes to first tab?

    I just tested it again. The trick is to tap on the calories remaining, not the barcode or plus sign?

    Same thing. I uninstalled/reinstalled. Used small and medium widget and tried tapping on cal remaining. Iphone 13pro

    Ah, that might be the issue: Android versus iOS (I'm on Android).

    They must have decided it was a bug and "fixed" it because now it goes to dashboard wherever you press. Even more fun, after you first open the app and select diary, it flips back to dashboard after a few seconds.

    Being forced back to the dashboard is extremely annoying. I’ve been a premium subscriber since 2017 but being forced back to the dashboard is annoying enough to make me switch to a different app. There are also times where I saw the diary, tapped the screen, and then the taps registered on a different screen as the app flipped back to the dashboard. I thought it was my old phone, but I switched to a new phone and the problem still exists.

    Any progress here? MFP seems to be stubbornly hanging onto this feature that no one wants…
