Kenna Morton's Journal, 20 Sep 19

There are some features of this strange FS program that I am stuck in. One is that on the list of foods that you have eaten it totals how many times this week you have eaten that food item and keeps a running total of each food . I can’t really see where that is a necessary feature. You also can’t track which macros you want to follow. You only get the big 3. At least in two days I haven’t found a way to be able to add others. It does have some nice features, but everything requires a lot of page flipping. The developers say they are working on a tutorial. They have also tried to explain how to get to a cookbook feature but it just is not there. Oh well.

Good luck finding what you need!

Yep. I also wish we had an option of having the pie chart pull net carbs instead of gross.

I did find a way to add one more macro. And there is another page where you can see some micronutrients. Lots of page flipping. Still a bummer. Still nothing that remotely could be used as a cook book

This program does have the ability to track net carbs but you would have to delete one of the other column headings. You can only do 4 it seems.

Yes, the columns will reflect it but the pie chart and macro goals will only pull data from gross carbs. It's not a deal breaker - just one of those things.

Bella do you have this same new version of FS? The cook book finally appeared. This program has the ability to scan a barcode and enter it in the meal column. It shows the barcode data and then it doesn’t show up any place else. Also pictures still working. Maybe the administrators are fixing the program piece by piece. At least it is still usable— I think.

I meant pictures are still NOT WORKIMG.

Kenna - I can't find 'what version' I'm using but I just downloaded it again the other day when the formatting word wrapping glitched so it should be the latest. I don't use the paid version though. I have a cookbook. I did notice when I uploaded a photo from the app it didn't appear on my account; that has been hit & miss in the past so I just go to the internet on my phone and upload there.

Desktop, Android app or iPhone app? I'm sure they all work a little differently.

Keyten - good for you but for the rest of us still tracking things for the purpose of knowing/learning and applying it to how it affects our body composition, waistline, etc. it would be nice to have the app deliver without glitches. I can appreciate you have moved beyond recording but that doesn't mean it isn't a helpful tool for others esp people new here trying to figure it all out.

Good point GZ - I never thought about IPhone V Anroid. I have an Iphone. My daughter has Android. She doesn't have FS but she does have FB and that app works differently on my phone compared to hers.
