Copying meals throughout the week
A couple ideas:
1) It would be great when copying a meal to a different day if you could just click on multiple days and have it copy to those days, replacing whatever instance of that meal (e.g. lunch) is already on those days (see the first image). Selection of each day would just toggle each time it's touched/clicked.
2) If there were a "copy" button at the top right corner of the daily planner (or another three-dot menu button that had this function and others) that would facilitate copying all contents of a given day plan to one or more other days, including suppelements, exercise, etc., it'd REALLY make life easier for those of us who want to plot out an entire week at a time. For copying those days, see idea 1 as well.
See attached images...
Thanks! Great app!

Hey Rodney, thanks for the great feedback! We'll definitely give these some thought. In the meantime, please check out the new meal plans feature (Foods > My Foods > Meal Plans). It may help you more efficiently log foods by allowing you to chart out a weekly meal plan ahead of time and then "apply" it each week.

Hi everyone, I found out how to copy everything to another day! When looking at your day (my day), go to the yellow box where it says “breakfast”, “lunch” or “dinner” and go all the way to the right where you will see three vertical dots. When you click on those three dots it will bring up a whole drop down list of options. Scroll down to “copy to” and tap that, and then just tap which ever day you want to copy it to on the calendar that appears. Voila!!

Brenda The link you provided solved the request (2)! I'm surprised that the CM moderator did not point this out when this thread was originally posted. Thank you.
This thread can be completed when we can copy a daily plan to multiple days ahead. Carb Manager - would you please update on this feature request? Thank you. -
GR4CE I got so excited because I thought you found something. Lol. I’ve been copying my lunch daily the same way but was hoping to find a way to paste it to multiple days . I don’t think the app developer ever looks at these comments because I can’t imagine it would be that difficult . Thank you though. 👍🏻

Stephen Brown and everyone. If I know software companies, they only look at new posts, they don't read the endless add-on-posts. Suggest similar to the first post to get their attention and response.
This is not a solution but this work-around may help some folks. I'm pretty consistent on what I have for breakfast, supplements etc. I created a recipe called daily breakfast and added everything in it. Every day I only need to click on it once to add my whole breakfast. I plan to develop more "recipes" for frequently used together options.
