Needs improved functionality

Often, using MFP on the desktop is more cumbersome than it needs to be. I think you all could do a much better job in making this user friendly. Given what tech is today, this interface is feeling dated. This is what I propose:
  1. We should be able to look at our recipes on a desktop (vs tiny phone) in alphabetical order.
  2. Offer us search functionality for recipes on the desktop. I’m astounded that this hasn’t occurred. If I have 20 pages of recipes, it means I have to scroll pages and pages and pages to find what I’m looking for.
  3. When I edit a recipe on the desktop, and it saves, the UI takes me back to the beginning. And if I was on page 8, I have to scroll all the way back to that to pick up what I was doing. This should be corrected.
  4. It would be nice if recipes had a section for notes.
  5. The app is starting to get “noisy,” adversely impacting the user experience, making it slightly more bulky and burdensome. I would prefer t go to where I want to go without all the extra messaging.

Thank you.
