Diary Page Ads

I realize the owners of the site and app want to make money but am I the only one getting annoyed by the new advertising showing up on the diary page where we enter our food for the day?

It's rather annoying and sneaky how it pops up as you're clicking to add food and you accidentally click the advertisement.

I've been logging my food for over three years and this is the first complaint I've ever had with the app.

Just curious about what others think. I still love the app and it has been a life saver for me having lost over 165 pounds so far.

    MFP Suggestions/Feedback section is more likely to be seen by staff...there's a number of threads going on now about the topic you've mentioned. So that would be a no, it doesn't appear you're the only one upset about the ads.

    I personally haven't had that issue come up yet for me but I'm not using an app which might have something to do with it?

    You can have a mod move this thread to that section or just ad your comments to one of the threads already started.. it'll likely get more attention over there. Just a suggestion is all & WOW, way to go on dropping those lbs!!!! :o

    Sorry about placing this in the wrong forum.

    It's disappointing to see an app I've loved for so many years being hurt just for profit. I didn't mind the ads the way they were before but popping up on the diary page is intrusive and ruins the experience. Maybe they'll listen to their loyal users and address this.
