Please describe any comments, suggestions, or requests you have regarding the new desktop version. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback!
i'm sorry that you changed it! it seems cumbersome. i will look for another one, as i got used to and liked this one.
don't listen to the grumblers, you are heading in a very good direction and many users are helping you! creating and developing such a site is not easy; there are and will be mistakes, and they will be fixed!
what is a bit chaotic is the jumble of ready-made products that have been uploaded, but that's our fault, the users'!
if someone is unable to accurately describe the details of a packaging, there is nothing that can be done about it. searching is a bit cumbersome among so much data, but it's not impossible; sometimes it will only yield results after multiple attempts and checks.
i love this application, congratulations on it, and thank you on behalf of all users!
in the new version, from a usability perspective, it is missing (at least i experienced this a few days ago on a desktop) that when i enter a food item, the cursor does not stay in the input field, so i cannot continuously input meals through typing-enter-typing-enter, etc.
very good! thank you! the new version is easier to handle. i mean, i was happy with the old one too :)
don't listen to the whiners, the new version is really great work. do it the way you think is best, you're mostly completely right :)
one observation is that the search function could still be improved, for example with exact word searches (specifically, "tomato" or "apple" appears around page 6 after a lot of apple pie, tomato soup, etc.), and detailed searches (e.g., contains these two words, in any order). additionally, it would greatly facilitate the addition of new foods and recipes if the shortcut keys that speed up the meal logging process worked there as well, and if the cursor would jump back to the search bar after entering an ingredient, it would jump to the next field for the food.
i would also find it useful if daily calorie expenditure could be recorded simply through sports without any hassle, but that's really just a "if you ever get bored to death and everything else is perfect" project :) for those with an activity tracker, they get a pretty accurate number every day of how many calories they burned, it would be nice if the daily limit/calorie expenditure could be adjusted accordingly every day.
related to this, currently, if someone changes their limit, it retroactively rewrites everything. so if you lower it, say to shed the extra holiday pounds, then every period where the limit was higher looks like you were constantly exceeding it. it's not a huge deal, but it would be more motivating and useful if "nothing would change about the past."
thanks for all the work you put into the site, even if the noise of the whining idiots drowns it out, there are a few of us who are quietly applauding you in the background! merry christmas!
the quantities are harder to choose, for example with soups
in two days, it took away my enjoyment of using the site.
each added dish takes up so much space that hardly anything fits on the screen; the whole thing has become cluttered and overthought. sometimes less is more. it's great that this site exists at all; no one expects you to keep it updated.
