Checkbox to each added item

Options
Please add a checkbox ☑ to each added item so that we can check every item as we eat the meals. I think that this would be a great way to hold ourselves accountable when planning meals on a daily basis. This is especially useful considering that we can plan days ahead and follow a specific meal plan. It would be another very useful way to incentivate the user to follow that meal plan for the day. Besides if there could be a graph something like that, something visual that shows consistency regarding reaching daily, weekly, monthly consistency by checking those boxes off, following the meal plan, it would be great. I think it would raise the bar for this app for sure.

    Agreed! I pre-add my meals to get the macros right and some days I forget to eat the foods I’ve logged.A checkbox feature would help me stay on track. It’s a slightly different use case from the meal plan described above.

    We love that, and I'm sure a lot of other customers will too! We'll pass it along to the team!

    I also agree with this. A lot of us food prep ahead of time and it would be helpful to have some kind of check off next to each item. Or a swipe to create a marker showing you ate it.

    Yes, please! I've used that in other trackers where I could put in my food for days at a time and then just check off what I actually ate. What I plan and what I eat are not always the same! The software would give me counts of what I planned and what I actually did.
