Improved Settings screen layout for choosing units for weight of foods & beverages (ie, grams or ounces) and how you wish saturated fat content to be displayed (ie, g/serving, %target/serving, g/100g, g/1oz, %target/100g or %target/1oz). Bug fixes.

Revised "How to use the app" instructions to improve readability

Bug fix for devices using iOS17 and earlier iOS versions to prevent crashes with latest updates.

Most food and beverage popups now highlight whether the item is high or low FODMAP per serving to support users who have irritable bowel syndrome. Bug fixes

Rapid access to saturated fat content for all plants, probiotics, prebiotics & ultra-processed foods (UPFs) in the 400-item database via the Info screen. Rapid access to different displays of saturated fat content information — g/serving; %Target/serving; g/100g or 1oz; %Target/100g or 1oz — for all 400 items in, plus items you have added to, the database via the Settings screen. Bug fix.

All high-saturated fat foods (ie, contain more than 3g of saturated fat per serving) are color-coded in maroon type and have a maroon warning triangle in the food popups. Revised "How to use the app" instructions.

Improved "How to use the app" instructions. Bug fix

50 new items added to the app's database so the app now includes 400 foods and drinks color-coded for plants, prebiotics, probiotics and ultra-processed foods (UPFs) to support a healthy gut microbiome diet.

Twenty new items added to the app's database and revision of color-coding of type and icons to support a healthy gut microbiome diet as follows. All plants that can be included as one of the 30 different types of plants per week recommended by experts for a healthy gut microbiome are highlighted in green type and with a green leaf icon in the food popups. The most prebiotic plants (ie, those that are particularly beneficial for the gut microbiome) are highlighted in a darker green type. Fermented foods that contain beneficial live microbes to become part of the gut microbiome (probiotics) are highlighted in gold type and with a gold microbe icon in the food popups. Foods that are likely to be ultra-processed (UPFs) — ie, contain ingredients not found in a home kitchen such as preservatives, flavorings, and emulsifiers — and are likely to have a harmful effect on the gut microbiome are highlighted in red type and with a red warning triangle in the food popups.

Improvements to the "Add Food" screen — toggle the "Values per serving" option to use g/100g, g/1oz, or g/serving for saturated fat content; use color codes and icons to highlight added foods as plant, probiotic or UPF

Color-coded type and icons on food popups in the 330-item database now identify healthy (plant, prebiotic, probiotic) and unhealthy (likely to be ultra-processed) foods (UPFs) to support a healthy gut microbiome diet. A notepad has been added to the record intake screen.

Red exclamation marks are displayed for any day in "Month view" where intake is over 120% of target and average intake per day during each month is now displayed at the top of "Month view" screens in dark orange type. Bug fixes and minor revisions to "How to use the app" instructions.

Bug fix

Redesigned "barcode scanning" screen and text popup to improve functionality on all devices, including mini iPhones. Revised coding for daily listing of logged foods so foods attributed to different meals, eg breakfast, appear together even if entered at separate times; and the ingredients of recipes logged appear in the popups detailing the contribution of each ingredient to the daily target.

The 212 plant-based foods/beverages in the 328-item database provided with the app now appear in the “Saturated fat in foods" section, searches, and daily and long-term logs in green type to help users consume the 30+ different types of plant per week recommended by experts for a healthy gut microbiome.

Improvement to recording intake of the same food on different occasions during a day so each recording will be listed as a separate item identified by the meal and/or time of intake when you overwrite a previous entry if you confirm in the popup it should be a new entry rather than a change to the previous entry.

Three new features: 1. Record & track time or meal (eg lunch) when recording food/beverage intake. 2. "How to use the app” instructions are now numbered 1–15 to indicate the steps to take when the app is first installed to become familiar with the app's capabilities; they have also been revised to highlight the need to allow the app access to your iPhone or iPad camera, microphone and speech recognition to scan barcodes and use dictation and speech recognition. 3. Sample recipes can be easily identified and deleted if desired, and a bug has been fixed.

Revised "How to use the app" instructions to improve usability. New app icon.
