    Feature request: quick navigate to current day in diary.

    The web interface has a reasonably intuitive way of navigating back to the current day's diary if, say, you're browsing past diary entries (click on calendar icon, today's date is in yellow). It's not *incredibly* discoverable, but it is convenient once you figure it out.

    Would love to see a similar feature on mobile. I have eventually discovered that clicking on the date causes a date picker interface to pop up, but it can be time consuming to turn the spinner to the current day. "return to current day" is a common enough operation that it would be nice to see it be easier.

    A thought... The cursor stays on "to" screen when replying to messages. This is rather counter intuitive, would prefer it straight in the message box. Also haven't seen how you are notified of new messages in this build, I have had an email alerting me but nothing obvious in the app?

    I had a lot of problems last week with the app crashing when searching. latest patch appears to have covered this, so thanks.

    One issue I had in the non-Beta version was a problem when entering exercise time always saving as the wrong time, either in the am, or the am minus one hour - even when I stated that it was afternoon/evening exercise - this seems to be working fine in the Beta version, so thanks for that.

    still looking at things, and need to read some of the other threads to see if I've spotted anything that no-one else has.

    Notes:

    Accessing the diary is non-intuitive, but once you get used to it, it's okay.. I'd prefer it to be easier to access from the main page.

    Entering a new recipe under settings seems really oddly located? took me a while to find it. Also, when entering ingredients in a recipe, I was scanning barcodes, and when I disagreed with the automatically selected result, I was being jettisoned out of the recipe entry - hence losing all of my ingredients that hadn't been saved.

    EDIT: LG Nexus 4
  • Really like all the changes thus far to the app. Much cleaner. Took me a while to figure out the top left was a button too but now it's second nature.

    this isn't new to this release, but sometimes when the app opens it goes to a really odd message screen (which looks like spam) - something about Albert?! don't know if the developers are aware?

    also sometimes it opens on '[blank] completed his diary'...

    these are both relatively regular occurrences rather than opening on the main screen.

    I like the look of the new app, but I don't see much "NEW" about it. As others have stated, I was looking forward to checking the new version out - expecting for community to be available to at least some extent.

    Can you update your weight on the mobile app? I haven't been able to find that.

    Also, it's really touchy and is constantly changing the date while I'm scrolling on the home page.

    I like the new set up. Nice color. Nice font sizes.

    My HTC Thunderbolt reached the end of its useful life in the middle of this Beta test. That's probably good though, it's a real world test. The app worked fine on the Thunderbolt, it was the phone that was sluggish. I just loaded MFP onto my new Nexus 4 and it's working well. Everything installed and synced perfectly. I'm not surprised because I was already running it on my Nexus 10. USA.

    Usability of Sync Now

    I would like a quicker way to perform a Sync Now operation. I use both the app and the web site extensively. The app's data is often out of sync with the web site, either one way or the other. The app appears to sync on its own when it's open... but not always, and not quickly enough at times.

    Currently the only way I know how to request sync explicitly is to tap four UI elements (sidebar/Settings/Data Sync/Sync Now), then a fifth to get back to the home screen. If there's a faster way to request "sync now", I'd like to know.

    I'd prefer that it operate this way: from any screen, choose Menu -> Sync Now (in the same place as Menu -> Send Feedback), then the sync should happen "in the background" -- meaning we don't move to a different screen from the one we were at. For example, if I'm looking at my Diary and do Menu -> Sync Now, I want it to perform the sync (perhaps with a notification and/or an info pop-up) and continue with looking at my Diary. Same with the Home/Summary or Home/Daily screens.

    Thanks

    Instead of the left arrow, MFP icon in the top left hand corner what about the standard Android menu symbol (the three horizontal lines), and a Sync option in that menu. Sorely needed IMO.

    Last night when I first logged into the app I had to laugh as it did not sync over Wifi upon opening the app. Looked like I'd added nothing all day. I added my evening snack, and suddenly all my entries for the day were there.
