Feature suggestion!

[secret...@gmail.com]

Hey there. Great app. Really sharp and wonderfully simple. Thank you.

Quick feature request though. Could you include an option to ignore portion size for remembered items. This way I could remember the actual item (eg cauliflower curry 100 g) and then adjust portion each time without each of the adjustments being remembered as well.

Otherwise faultless app!

Hi. Glad you like the app.

You're not the first to ask for this. It shouldn't be too hard to add. I can see a number of ways of doing it...

1) Have a checkbox on the "Adjust portion" screen. Something like "Suggest the new item in future [x]". This should probably default to whatever setting was used last time.

2) Have a checkbox on the item add/edit screen. Something like "Suggest this item in future [x]". This should probably default to checked, as it would be present for every item you add, not just items created by adjusting a portion.

3) Have a checkbox tucked away in the settings screen that has the same effect as (1). I.e. only applies to items generated via "Adjust portion", but is more set-and-forget.

Personally, I don't feel a need for this feature -- I tend to have two or three portion sizes hanging around and a combination of those is usually close enough -- So I'm not sure which of the above would be best. I'm inclined towards (1) as it is un-intrusive but is in front of you when needed. What do you think?

Hi Martin,
Thanks for the quick response. Think that either of the first two options would work. Probably option 1 is my preferred option though.
Cheers,

I've just added this feature (option 1) to version 1.7.0, released today.

Thanks for this. Will take a look but looks really useful. Really appreciate this being added in.
Cheers,

I miss the calorie calculator in old version. Am i missing it someplace in the new one?

[Martin Stone]

Yes, but it's less obvious because of the ability to have multiple nutrients... Long press on the numeric field that you want to calculate a value for, and the old-style calculator will pop up.
