See recent & frequent foods from day 1 grouped by date

[Akubisek]

Please find a better way to customize foods, either with a web link that you can add from a recipe site and it automatically does or a picture or better ways to customize at home prepared foods for most of us who meal prep and then edit them. I can’t edit mine, more options for going out to restaurants too and name brands. Optio to see recent & frequent foods (starting from day 1), preferably grouped by date.

Food Editing, Yes! - at the very least, allow better editing in the app custom foods that have been created, or to import an existing food and make Corrections that save as a custom food.

Hi, I'd like to suggest that

1. Recent foods stays for longer, I would say at least 1 month or better since the start of the history, but in the order of how recent it is.

2. Same thing for frequent foods, much longer list is needed, preferably all foods since the beginning of logging history, in the order of frequency.

3. I am in the UK, I was able to find by barcode the product Bio Gallette de Grano Saraceno. However, as recent and frequent foods history doesn't contain data after about 1 week, and I threw away the packaging, I tried to find this name in the database. It didn't show up. So I think it would be nice to be able to search foods in the database if we can find them by barcode.

4. It would be good to have Copy Food or even Copy Meal function, where I could copy an item or the whole meal e.g. from yesterday to today.

Thank you

Hi @ryanceres, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to see more different methods to log food. I've moved it into a similar request. I think that a lot of users would like to have this option on their Fitbit devices. You might be also interested in voting for this other suggestion: Copy food log from one day to another.
