Can anyone help? I recently switched phones and lost many of the foods I saved in my daily diary. After spending a lot of time recreating my list, it appears there has been a update to the app and again my food list is a mess. Any way to restore the list without relogging every item. I do not have premium membership at this time.

    You could contact MFP support through the help link or email address.

    First, though, especially since you changed phones, I'd suggest double-checking that your search setting when adding foods are what you want them to be. I'm talking about this:

    . . . maybe especially the circled thing:

    Thank you for responding. I have tried the different settings example - Most recent or most frequent& all meals vs. Breakfast, Lunch ect.. no luck with those settings. I will look further into the "support link" so far I only found a AI option for a question and that was not helpful...thanks again for taking the time to help.✌️

    are you using the same user ID? Their data should be contained within the website itself, and not local to your phone.

    I switch devices all the time and easily find the foods, meals, etc, and can see my full food history, board convos etc.

    Wondering if I signed in with different passwords, over the couple years I have been using the app I may have signed in using my Google password. This time I found a actual password for this app. I was thinking something similar. When I originally started the app it was on a doctor's account ??? Thank you!
