Mobile App Updates
We’ve been squashing bugs and working on new features for the Plan to Eat app! This month we released app versions 2.9.11 – 2.9.13.
- We removed an action sheet so you can open a friend’s recipes directly from their menu.
- If you try to add a photo to a recipe and previously disabled the permission, we now link to your phone’s camera and photo permission settings so you can easily change them.
- We fixed a window scrolling bug related to iOS 16.
- The automatic update toggles in the shopping list form have been redesigned so they are easier to use and understand.
- We fixed a bug causing automatic grocery category selection to turn off if you changed the category for one shopping list item.
Desktop Updates
The development team continued to make updates and fix bugs on the website version of Plan to Eat.
This month’s desktop updates were “under the hood” as preparation for new desktop features in the works.
We will continue to notify you of any updates and new features on our blog and via email. In the meantime, if you have any questions, you can always contact our support team.
