I just entered the ingredients for a soup I made and want to save the recipe but don't see where I can save it. Help please? Thanks.

    Did you enter it in the Recipe builder part of the app or just in your food diary?

    In order to save it you need to create a recipe in the recipe builder, once you’ve input all the ingredients you’ll be able to save it then access it from your diary.

    Food: Recipes: It says to enter your recipe and Recipe Nutrition Calculator on the page.

    I don't see a "save" option or button. Does it do that automatically?

    Are you on the app or on the website? If the app, which one (iOS or Android)?

    Edit: Nevermind... the interface has changed, recipes are entered differently now.

    Since this question was already asked, I won't start a new thread. I haven't tried to save a recipe in a long long while, and in trying to do so now, I see no way to save it. No save button. What the heck. I'm using the website on my laptop. Anyone else having this issue?

    On an android select the three bars upper left, scroll down to recipes, meals, and foods. Select that then select create a recipe. Follow the directions and you are allowed to save the recipe at the end.

    I'm using my desktop trying to make a recipe and I don't save a save button anywhere either

    I have this question too...was it ever answered? I can add recipes on my phone, but the website doesn't seem to have a 'save' button or option

    What worked for me was to save the recipe after each ingredient was added

    On iOS still have the issue…
    Go to the trouble of entering all the ingredients, but no option to save.
    Pretty discouraging software… and this is not some new thing.

    I’m on iOS and wondering if you’re looking in the wrong place for the save button?

    Once you’ve entered your ingredients go to the arrow at top right, that will take you to the page where you can edit serving size if desired and also the ‘Save’ buttons.

    Maybe there is a next button or arrow on the desktop too? I’ve only done it with iOS and other than a 24 hr glitch, it always works just hitting next and then the save or save and add to diary option.
