Hi cannboys. I saw that you’re product manager of FatSecret. I wanted to suggest camera icon for photos to be put in the middle and not at the right hand side 😆 I hold my phone with the left hand and use my thumb to take a pic, but my thumb won’t reach to camera icon on the right 😝 Also, when I add recipes, and add those to meals (breakfast, lunch etc), I would only have option of “serving”. If we can weigh it, that’ll be great. For example, I make keto friendly chocolate mousse. Recipe is for 2 serving. If I don’t weigh the total amount, I wouldn’t know exactly how much is 1 serving. Another thing is weight input. Are we able to put up to hundredth (2 digits after decimal point)? Sorry about too many requests Thank you 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️ 

Hi K1nchan. Can you give me more information re: camera icon? Looking at it on iphone, the camera icon is in the middle (when adding to the food diary). If you can tell me what screens you're looking at when it's on the RHS, that'd be great. As to recipe weights - we hear you. We'll be focussing on recipes again next year and being able to record by weight is in there as a consideration. Adding another decimal place for weigh-ins - I can understand why people want the precision, but is a difference of 100g/quarter of a pound going to make a difference at weigh-in? 

Hello cannboys! Thank you for the reply, and I really appreciate it! Regarding camera icon, it’s when you add a new product and add pictures of ingredients, packaging etc. when you try to take a pic there, camera icon is on the right hand side. I use iPhone XR. And about the weigh decimal, it’s not important. My scale just shows, and I have to put heavier number to round it, that’s all 😝  

Ah ok. The create new food flow will be getting focus in January so we can include that feedback for the designers. 

Awesome! Thank you, cannboys! 😘  

K1nchan - where are you based? Would you be interested in being a test user for this when we have some designs ready? 

I’m based in Australia🇦🇺 Does being a test user come with a lot of work!? If not, I’m happy to participate. There should be a chat function between/amongst users. I had to ‘comment’ on your post to reach out to you, haha 😆  

No it’s more like an hour of your time. If you’re in Melbourne we can do the testing at our office or we can do remote testing via video 

Hmmm, I’m not in Melbourne, but I work full time with 2 kids. And I spend quite a bit of time on this app already... maybe in future!🙇🏻‍♀️ 

Ok. We can work around people's schedules :D Which part of AU are you in?
