I love the recipes from EatingWell on Premium. How can I get the actual recipe with ingredients and ingredient measurements?

@CollinM   Non-Premium users don't even know these recipes exist.  They don't have the "Nutrition" section that has these recipes.

 

I agree that this section needs work.  Much more work.  You must take steps to find the recipe.  Then you must take more steps in order to log the food.  And on. And on.

Hi Fitbit 

I purchased my first fit bit I do love it got 6 months free premium but I don’t think I will be renewing on reading this page loads of your paid users have voiced well within reason that the recipes should be printed and I totally agree found this a huge disappointment and to be fair I think most users would expect this but looking at what looks like an automated reply thanking us for our comment yE are not acting on it At all only saying it’s under review how many negative comments about this particular feature Will it take for ye to actually do something  about it… and actually fix i???  If in 4 months when my free premium is up this feature has not been amended I doubt very much I will renew a pity as there is a lot of good about premium but this to me is an epic fail on yere part

Hi Fitbit. Me again. I've found an app which has replaced my premium use and has over 35k recipes and the whole app is only £24.95 a year! Compare that to premium Fitbit! Unfortunately Fitbit do not listen to their customers who have paid for the watch and then are being asked to put their hand in their pocket again for premium. When this Fitbit sense breaks I will be buying a Samsung watch. 3 have broken in less than a year - confirmed as faulty and not user error by yourselves. You now have nothing especially that I find useful or that I want. The food logging system does not have much uk foods whereas I have only had to add 3 foods in 4 weeks to the Carb Manager app I am using. Everything about Fitbit lately feels as though all you care about is removing things from users lives - not enhancing them which goes against everything I believe in when spending my money. Yes make a profit, that's what business is and everyone worldwide would accept that but as soon as your actions become counter to customers needs and you don't listen and act to rectify that then, as with much of life in the 21st century, you get cancelled. I will be cancelling my sub when it ends and cancelling my almost 10 year association with Fitbit as and when my latest wristwear breaks because from all the threads I'm on here you simply don't listen to your customer base. You take games away (rabbit smoothies) - which you never extended to the UK so we couldn't even join our overseas friends in playing them, you bit by bit are dismantling the very point of your premium services so unfortunately you will have to reap what is being sown. The average time for Fitbit to act after customers have posted and voted on subjects important to them is 3-4 years. Sorry but I'm not prepared to wait around for some ingredients anymore, nor for any of the other subjects which have been cancelled from your service. You may go the way of Blackberry and some other tech companies as you don't like to entertain and respond to customer requests. People aren't asking for new things, they're asking why you have either taken away & withdrawn or totally failed to provide in the first place. It's up to you at the end of the day. Make business decisions - which is the reason I'm given whenever I question anything "it was a business decision". OK, no worries. I'm also making a business decision in that I will not be spending another penny with you and will move my branding support elsewhere when the current gadgets and subscription ends. All the best to you but I feel you are speedily losing your customer base because of silly decisions.

It makes sense to someone even though the reasoning isn’t transparent to us. I suspect this has something to do with money and the cost of licensing the content from another provider or driving traffic to a paid partner. 

And yet look at the backlash it’s created. Time for Fitbit to rethink their strategy I’d say. 

By the way I just signed up yesterday and see that they’re now calling it ‘recipe inspiration’

I agree, I've seen loads i want to try but without measurements its actually completely pointless in even having this videos! Come on fitbit these videos are no good if we don't know how to make them!

This is ridiculous! No ingredients, no instructions, no measurements, no way to import the recipe into my food log? What is the point of a premium membership? I am glad I got a free trial to see what I don't need to pay for when my trial expires. .

Was so excited looking though all the delicious looking recipes only to find out that I have to watch a video that just shows someone cooking, and no measurements.. like whaaat!! for this I will be canceling my premium as I just dont find it beneficial for the price it is.  I HIGHLY recommend leaving the ingredients with directions.. or is it really even an recipe? 

Best Answer

I definitely agree. I pay for premium also. It's not a recipe if there is no ingredient list! 

 

Thank you for your input on the website Eating well. Will check it out.

I agree! I don’t know why you bother posting video of food we can’t make or track without details. Very disappointing

This comment was made in 2021... we are in 2023. Come on guys, you have many years to "ear what we though" now its your turn. We want to KNOW from YOU! Make it make sense! Incomprehensible imo.

Hey everyone!!!

I just went to Google and type the name of the recipe and it open a link on eating well WEBSITE and they have the measures. Plus comment from ppl who suggest what to add to it for it being most tasteful. https://www.eatingwell.com/recipe/250549/roast-chicken-sweet-potatoes/
