  1. More snack reminders

    Many dietary plans recommends more than one snack per day. Being able to set at least two more snack reminders in Lifesum would be great.

  2. Search recipe by ingredient

    It would be nice if you can search for a own created recipe by an ingredient.
    And also it would be great if you can search for your own recipes by the name

  3. Transfer of last weeks food intake to the new Health Test in the app.

    Transfer of last weeks food intake to the new Health Test in the app. Its allready registeret, so why enter it again when you take test?
    It would be cool if the app just came up with a weekly evaluation based on the last 7 days.

  4. Smoothie maker

    since a lot of people drink smoothies there should be a "smoothie maker" where you type in the ingredients of the smoothie

  5. Add the possibility to create recipe books for selfmade recipes, e.g. sweet things, christmas recipes etc.

    Being able to enter recipes into different recipe books would provide a much better overview.

  6. Improve food database

    Lifesum is prettier than the alternatives but without a reliable database of foods it's no better than a spreadsheet or even, God forbid, myfitnesspal.

    • Let people take photos of the nutritional label and parse those (there are standard types around the world)
    • Try to find similar foods and merge them. Where data differs, note as much.
    • Make it easier to work around others' inability to interpret labels correctly (by automating de-duplication, importing bulk research data like the USDA database).
    • Make it easier to use volumetric units (more easily approximated than mass). This has to be done at food creation time…

  7. "Add Liquids" - separate from meals/snacks

    In addition to hydrating with my water bottle throughout the day, I drink coffee, tea, sparkling water, etc. I would love to see an "Add Liquids" section that is stand-alone from meals/snacks, because they are usually consumed between meals/snacks. Thanks!

  8. Recommendations of food with high protein/ carbohydrates/ fat

    When I am at the supermarket, or standing in the kitchen, it is enormly time consuming to find out the perfect foods (food search) for my needs as suggested by lifesum.

    For me the nutrition values of diffrent foods don't come to my mind intuitively, and I would find it humongously helpful, if you'd have a feature, that would enable to search for healthy high protein ingedients / high carb foods/ high fat foods, or that would give me food recommendations that help me reach my nutrition goal.

    I know you have recipe suggestions that try to support in this…

  11. A monthly subscription option

  12. Updated date projections for when your weight loss goal should be achieved and estimated milestone days that update as you go

    When you set your goal it gives you an estimated day for when you should reach it but you never see it again. It would be nice if it updated and you can see it whenever you want. Same with milestones. An estimated time anticipated to reach each milestone would be nice

  13. Support single use recipes with servings

    For most meals I make up recipes on the fly, based on what ingredients I have on hand. I'd like to be able to enter the ingredients just as in a normal "recipe", enter the number of servings, and then add the item to a meal. I'd also like to be able to edit an improptu recipe that was already added to my meal. There's no need to save the recipe, although an option to save it after the fact would be a nice addition. The overall effect would be similar to creating a recipe, using it, then deleting the…

  14. Get restaurant support (like MFP)

    I'd like to be able to search for a restaurant (Chipotle, for example). That would then bring up a page of chipotle's menu, to which you could pick and choose what you ordered to be able to quickly enter your meal in.

  15. backdate weight tracking

    I would like to be able to go back and enter my weight for a different day. This would be helpful because some days i didnt enter it into the app but want to track progress and also started my weight loss before I started using the app and would like to go back and enter some past days to track progress from beginning.

  16. Ability to manually change amount of calories burned during exercise

    Not just to select the amount of minutes (not even at a decimal level, but whole minutes, as the app has now been updated to do instead), and have the app come up with an inaccurate amount of calories burned so we have to input guesses as to how many minutes will hit as close to the amount we've actually burned as possible. And not just to enter completely new calories burned that aren't attached to the exercise done. If we calculate our calories burned in other ways (and a lot of people do), we should be able to manually…

  20. Sort the food we add to the meals (breakfast, lunch etc) after time it's added so it's easy to find our last entry

    Many people eat 5-6 meals a day. That means 2-3 meals has to be under "snack". Therefore it often takes time to find the last entry when it's not at the bottom of the list. Specially if I ate this item every meal that "belongs" under "snack".
