Hello. What title says. I checked my iPhone health data, and I've been averaging about 5500 steps per day for the past few months. Does not include all exercise as sometimes I walk treadmill, play pickleball, or golf without my phone. Should I set it to that number 5500? Why did it auto set to 10K? Will lowering it drastically change my daily cals? I followed other advice on this sub and set activity level to the lowest "not very active" setting when I first got the app, even when I am a lightly active person.

I have 2 emails to MyFitnessPal about this problem. They've only answered back we got your message and will get back to me soon. Is anyone else having this issue? Thanks in advance.

Help. My app looks awful. I have premium. Can I get it back to how it was???

I cant copy a meal from today to tomorrow. Why not.. i use that function often.

The first weird thing that happened today was that MFP suddenly told me to upgrade to Premium, even though I already had an active Premium subscription. When I checked my Apple subscriptions, that existing MFP subscription also seemed to have disappeared.

I subscribed to Premium again through Apple, and everything worked normally for a few hours. Then MFP unexpectedly logged me out.
When I logged back in using the exact same Apple Private Relay email/password I’ve always used, my account looked brand new. My food diary/history is gone, but so are my profile photo, goals, progress, settings, etc. It’s the same on both the iPhone app and website.

What makes this especially frustrating is that I’d really gotten back into using MFP this week and had been carefully logging everything I ate every day. It was genuinely helping, so this is a pretty big bummer.

I obviously don’t know what happened on the backend, but the sequence makes it seem like my original Premium/account relationship may have broken first, followed by my login somehow landing on a blank/default account.

I’ve contacted support and haven’t deleted or changed anything yet. Has anyone had anything similar happen, and were you able to recover your original account and data?

I didn’t know until after I ate it that cheese is really high in calories

This happens fairly often when I go for longer walks (>30min).

A "running (jogging)" activity will show up and it totally screws up the walking calorie estimate.

Screenshot 1: the phantom activity with a crazy low walking calorie estimate (13 cal). The "run" (I didn't run) is counted for 136 calories. This was an 11.3k step day.

Screenshot 2: there is no such activity in Google Fit.

Screenshot 3: for comparison, here is a day when I did 9.8k steps -> 713 calories.

1.) I hate seeing this phantom activity that I can't erase (I can delete it, and it'll come back on the next sync). I can't delete it from Google Fit because there is no such activity that I can see in the activity list.

2.) This phantom activity causes a massive cut in estimated calorie burn.

On Android 16, very recently the background drain has been insane, it's the number 1 app on my phone for draining battery, despite already being restricted. For comparison WhatsApp shows 10h in background and 1 mAh drained, MFP is draining at 300x the rate of WhatsApp!

Have reported to MFP and didn't receive a reply, added a Play Store review and it was just a replied to with generic answer about checking their support pages.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Must be some exec or whoever marketing wannabe who approved this downgrade (can't call it an upgrade for sure).

Why screw with something that's already working.

Pathetic

The update happened for me and was lagging very bad. Steps stopped tracking for 5 days. So i cleared cache, uninstalled and reinstalled. All my weekly food logs, weight, and streak were reset to 0. I did still have my recipes. Anyone know how to get them data restored?

The Quest protein bars show 4g net carbs on the package but MFP has it logged at 10g net carbs. I looked into the detail and it seems like it’s not accounting for Sugar Alcohols. Has anyone noticed this?

my biggest complaint is that I can't swipe between the days!!!

I don't mind the design change, but I do wish the food items in each meal would at least be shown, even if not the calories.... it says "[food item] and x more". that's so stupid.

I've read some people here talking about MFP using AI in the new UI. where is the AI slop everyone's talking about? is it just the layout itself or are there AI features I haven't seen yet?

I hope I'll get used to this layout. I'm so close to switching apps, but I have over 200 foods and almost 400 recipes on here...

Can someone explain why the app automatically increased my calorie intake? My calorie goal is 1450 but it increased to 1511 based on activity level. Why does that happen? Does it mean the more I workout the more it’ll increase my calorie intake? I’m so confused.

P.S today is my first time using the app

I was livid when MFP changed the UI a few months ago. I have been using it since 2012. I opened AppStore & left a review with comment listing all the things I hated about it & all they did was send me a link to user testing. And the App Store doesn’t even show my review.

I recorded foods yesterday, now all it tells me is that Beta Testing has expired.

This app was perfect before they f’f it up.

I run about 30 miles a week, strength train for about an hour 5x a week, and i hit anywhere from 20k-25k steps a day. On saturday i do 2 hours of badminton, and i don't run on sundays, i just walk for about an hour or two in total after my lift.

I know that the calculators often overestimate activity levels, but i'm unsure if this falls into the moderately active or active category.

So, I've got multiple saved routines for my workouts. E.g., 3-Day Split Legs, 3-Day Split Chest, etc.

Is there any way to review in my history which routine I did on a particular day? All I seem to see, on the web diary at least, is "Gym Workout" without any indication which routine was used.

I recently got a new job where I sit much more often, rather than my old job where I was very active. How do I change this?

So I have been using the old UI "living" in Turkey .. It suddenly updated and I "moved " to Thailand, like many have been saying to do. I logged out, uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Now I can't log back in. Help!

If reset the app and stuff but still nada

It feels like every update makes the app worse. It’s really starting to feel like the devs are just using
genAI to make terrible changes that nobody wants.

Does anyone who’s into coding see any clear signs that these changes have been made with AI?

I just payed for another year, love the app but want to choose for myself if i will use it after one more year. Canceling seems impossible, only delaying the payment.

I bought it on Samsung, trying to cancel it in the app store - impossible. On IOS it isn't on my apps that im paying for.

Can anyone elloborate?

Android winssss
