Import recipes from websites

[kwanderer1]

I would like to be able to import a recipe from an online source and designate a serving size, and for the app to determine my calories/macros/etc.

Also, the integration of this feature as well as the current food log features such as "Create Meal" in the mobile app would make the task of logging foods much easier for those of us who mainly use the mobile Fitbit app.

@kwanderer1 I shared the same struggle as you, so I built an app that largely does what you and others are talking about in this thread. I would love for you and others to try it out and give me any feedback as to how to make the app better for the FitBit community. You can access the app at this link . You can also email me directly at rohans415@gmail.com for any questions or suggestions for enhancements.

I have the Cookbook app where I can simply grab a recipe's web link and paste it in the app and it'll sort out information. Fitbit should consider doing this in the calorie counter. Would be super helpful and easier for home cookers who don't always eat prepackaged stuff.
