We are continually upgrading your fitness app with new features based on your feedback. Please add a new idea, or vote on an existing idea. This ensures your ideas don't get lost and always visible and other users can upvote your ideas. The idea forum allows us to keep a pulse check on what our user community as a whole wants.

Why should I vote?

This forum allows us to more accurately prioritize ideas to ensure a system of fairness by executing on improvements needed more urgently by a larger cohort of our user community, in order of voting priority. It offers you transparency into what we're reviewing, starting and have completed.

Vote subscribes you to the idea so when its status changes, you'll get notified.

When does an idea get picked up?

The higher the votes, the more likely the idea will be completed but there is no fixed formula if an idea will be picked up as it is just one avenue we look at. The idea forum is only one of the many avenues we use to evaluate an idea's feasibility. We also factor in your conversations with our support team, in-app surveys, Facebook beta groups, complexity of the idea, talks with our inner circle of users and how it fits with the overall vision of the platform.

For example, "Portuguese support" was for the longest time in our top 3. But embarking on that would significantly dent our ability to serve our primary English speaking community effectively.

Thanks!

Allow clients to create custom recipes and track by serving

Give clients the ability to create recipes, add number of servings per recipe, then track servings as meals for better accuracy.

Personal recipes can be created the same way as a custom meal, but with all the ingredients for the whole recipe. Clients can then save to "favorites" or access in "recent" then have the option of making the meal a "recipe" with the option for adding number of servings. The app will then calculate the calories and nutrition for each serving. When they track as a "meal", they can choose the number of servings they ate just like they would with in-app recipes.

At this time, the custom meal tracking option is inadequate for accurate tracking of clients personal recipes.

They only have the option of tracking recipes from the "discover" section as meals by serving, requesting that I create a custom recipe in the discover section for them to track, or they have to calculate out individual servings for a recipe, then manually track as meal. This leads to inaccurate tracking, a time consuming process on both ends, the need for another app to calculate, and lack of building a meal tracking habit for clients. MFP offers this feature, and it is very effective.

The benefits of adding this feature include:
1. more awareness for client regarding their favorite recipes
2. more agency as clients build meal tracking and planning skills with their own recipes
3. the ability for me as their coach to get more insight into their preferences to help them with healthy swap ideas
4. significantly less complications for meal tracking
