  • We added email verification to new accounts created through the Plan to Eat app.
  • We added options for setting your time zone from the app Account page. 
  • We added an additional metric toggle in the Recipe Book Settings.

Desktop Updates

We’ve been making consistent updates, squashing bugs, and adding features to the website too! Here’s a list of what’s happened in the past month:

  • We added a “deleted recipes” link on the website Account page.
  • We added a [ + Header] button when editing recipe ingredients so you can easily add a recipe ingredients header!
  • The website will automatically set the correct timezone for your Planner and List dates, based on your web browser settings. 
  • We added a time zone selection to the Account page.
  •  We updated the the Meal Planner Options dialog UI.

We’re excited to give you another month of fresh updates, bug fixes, and exciting new features! We will continue to notify you of any new updates and features on our blog and via email.

Exceptional – the BEST shopping list app. All meal planning and shopping list apps I’ve ever used have only offered the best features for a certain category. For example, some have a great list but limited meal planning. Some give recipes and meal planners but the shopping list is hard to use. This app DOES IT ALL and is always being updated with better features. At this point I can’t live without it.

I have adhd with executive disfunction – which in my case causes me to get overwhelmed easily. So as silly as it sounds, I have a hard time finding recipes, writing them down/trying to plan out my meals, making a grocery list then later finding the recipe again so I can cook it. This literally solves all that. You find a recipe you like, send it to the app then choose what you wanna eat on what days. Im not sure I’ve been so elated over an app before. Hahaha If you have any issues with meal planning – this will solve them. It takes a minute to get the process down – but I really think this will be a staple in my life.
