Adding in meditation
While I understand that meditation and deliberate breathing exercises aren’t necessarily identified as activities that help lose weight, one could argue that there’s significant upside in logging here anyway. I don’t like to jump around health apps and this is my preferred notebook for my health. I bet I am not the only…
Incorporate self care
I typed this wonderful story about today...and when I switched over to my camera to take a picture...it was all gone.... Grrrr. Ok cliff notes. Slept in until noon:30. 8oz water and protein power packed first meal. Worked in the garden. Learned how to turn METs into calories burned. Slowed down for self care, I was shaky.…
Fast 800 options
Hi there I follow the Fast 800 diet, which going by Facebook and other platforms is very popular. However for so long I (we) can not end the day and get any statistics as MFP says we haven’t had enough calories and tells me I should have at least 1000. I think when we pay for the premium, these functions should be…
Coach account and login
Hi. I train for more than 20 hours a week for triathlon. I send my nutrition coach screenshots of the diary once per week. It would be great if one could create a "Coach Account" that has insight into the whole diary.
Meal Planner with access to 'my meals'
The meal plans are currently limited to the MyFitnessPal recipes. Access to a blank meal planner that we can then pull our own recipes, along with the MF recipes, into would make weekly meal planning much easier and avoid having to use other apps or spreadsheets. Being able to scroll across a whole week that easily and…
Overage
No, I don't want to have to do the math. Don't take away overages in red. Other than that its doable except the mg. nutrients.? It does print out more clearly. 👍
Missed Connections
I am a single Mom who is working to prioritize my health and fitness routine. I previously dabbled on the dating apps and have often wondered if it were possible to integrate my fitness apps to a dating (think geofencing with privacy and safety in mind) where single individuals could be connected to like minded…
use measurements / weights instead of "number of servings" in recipes
I'm new to the forum so this suggestion may have already been made… I'm finding it frustrating that when you add a recipe to calculate calories and macros, it uses "number of servings" instead of weights. I get it… that's quicker and easier and matches many online recipes. But if we're trying to be precise, we need to be…
Bring back larger recent foods search
In the most recent android update (in my experience), the recent foods list has shrunk considerably! It is now a grand total of 49 foods long, to be exact. Before, you could basically find any food you'd ever logged via recent foods (to an extent). This new, seemingly artificial, limit makes logging previously logged foods…
Gamification / Achievements
Add badges for answering questions, posting regularly, or supporting others (like StackOverflow or Duolingo). This would motivate engagement and build a stronger sense of community.
Advanced Search & Filtering
Right now, the search is basic and not very user-friendly. An improved search with filters like by date, by most active, by tags, by user, or by popularity would help people find existing answers instead of creating duplicate threads.
Progress Journals / Accountability Threads
Other forums (like Bodybuilding.com, Reddit’s r/progresspics, or dedicated fitness apps) let members keep a personal progress log thread. MyFitnessPal could add a section where users can maintain ongoing accountability journals—with features to track updates, progress photos, or milestones in one place.
Tagging System Instead of Only Categories
Right now, topics are only grouped into broad categories. Adding a tagging system (like #nutrition, #strength-training, #beginners, #accountability) would make it easier to filter posts and find relevant discussions across categories.
Upvoting / Best Answer Feature
Instead of just “liking” a post, members could upvote helpful answers or mark a “Best Answer” for questions. This would make it easier for newcomers to spot the most useful replies without scrolling through pages.
Add back brand search in the diary
I just wanted to leave some feedback on a recent update. The search feature for adding foods to the diary is not searching the brand section of a food anymore. I'm no longer able to search "kraft" to find kraft mac and cheese for example. I'd greatly appreciate if that functionality were added back, as I used it very…
Disable streaks
Why is there no way to disable streaks? I’m so sick of casually using this app and each streak, I get popups after the first entry. It gets soooo old. I’ve had 180 day streaks before, IDGAF about these little ones
Meal-Based Grocery Lists
Having an option to toggle between “store sorted” and “meal sorted” grocery lists, so you can see ingredients grouped by recipe/day.
Added vs. Natural sugar meter
Throughout the day, most of the sugars I eat are from fruits, but the meter combines the two kinds under a general tab. I’d like to be able assess how much added sugar (the one that actually needs to be limited) I consume without needing to manually do the math.
Ingredient substitutions in meal planner
Substitutions for ingredients should be allowed in the meal planner to allow for further customisation/personalisation of meals
The exercise section of the website is broken.
The "Database," "My Exercises," and "Settings" links on the exercise section of the website lead to 502 Bad Gateway errors.
Calorie deduct for omitted ingredients
I ran into a scenario where I ordered a sandwich from a fast food place, but I chose remove mayo from the sandwich to reduce fat. It would be nice to be able to add an “omitted” item to my diary that would create a negative calorie consumption. That way I would look up the sandwich for an easy log, and then just deduct the…
Add option to disable "Streak" interstitial.
I DON'T need this interstitial. Please add the option to disable it.
Grocery sorting
If meal planning groceries could be sorted more than store dependents (e.g. by day or meal). As is, if shopping for two meals out of five in a week, there’s a lot of swiping between recipes and the grocery list. Thanks!
Vegan bodybuilding community group
veganism is growing, and vegans love to connect with each other. Can you make a vegan community group? Especially for bodybuilders. Thanks
We should be able to filter unanswered post / discussions
This will help address all questions / discussions / polls etc
Allow feedback on recipe errors
I was looking at a recipe that is from your database, but there is an ingredient error, so I dont know if the nutritional info is correct, and there is no way to report the error so that you can correct it. I am trying to upload a screenshot here, but the app keeps sending an error message. It is the "Tuna and White Bean…
Splitting Added Sugar out from Sugar counts
I am tracking on MFP, and find the macro tracking usually useful. However, my diet is high in fruits and vegetables that have a pretty high sugar count. So I am consistently warned that I go over my daily sugar intake, then recommended to eat more fruits and vegetables. It would be really helpful if the app could…
Personalized recipes in meal planner
I would really love it if I could put MY recipes into the meal planner and keep some of the same features, such as being able to quickly add these predetermined meals to my food diary. The shopping list would be nice too, but that is less important to me than being able to make a meal plan with MY recipes for lunch,…
Improved food search
MFP likes to acknowledge the millions of items in its database, which is fine, even though a large number are no longer usable because they are so out of date. I'm sure many people become frustrated trying to discern the accuracy of items displayed from a search. MFP could make it easier by: (1) Displaying an exact match…
The new food diary layout is awful
The new food diary layout looks so bad and janky. It was way better and more comprehensive before. It looks like the most basic you could possibly get. Please change it back or actually improve upon the previous design instead of making it worse.
