Re: Search diary entries for food
For those wanting to search their own diary, there is a workaround. On the PC version under Trends, select Print Report. Change the dates to encompass the date range you want to search. I've been using Cronometer less than a year, so I select the entire time since I've been using it. On a Chrome browser click the three vertical dots and use **Find ** to search for an entry. Other browsers should have similar functionality.
Once you find what you are looking for, you can make note of the date and go back to the diary to go to that date and "copy to today".
It's a bit of a pain, but it works.

Rearrange Ingredients in Recipe
In the diary, you can move entries up or down within the list, but in a recipe you are stuck with leaving ingredients in the order entered. It would be nice if you could move ingredients up or down the list (especially when editing a recipe).

Fixed Protein + Dynamic Carbs, Fats, and Calories
TL;DR - I'd like to request the ability to set a fixed goal for one macronutrient (in this case protein) and dynamic goals for others (such as carbs, fats, and calories). Alternatively, I'd like the ability to set fixed "base" macronutrient targets based on no activity, but dynamically update macro targets based on logged exercise/activity using a different ratio than the "base" macro targets (for example 0:75:25 for additional protein:carbs:fats based on exercise). Perhaps this can already be done, but I have not yet found out how, if so.
Longer version -
There's a good bit of emerging research that indicates that an improved protein model is that all athletes (no matter your height, weight, or sex) should aim for about 120 grams of protein daily, divided as evenly as possible into 20 gram servings that are themselves separated by around three hours.
Realistically, having 6 meals per day with exactly 20g of protein is a bit overkill for my needs. With this in mind, in a different tracking app, I have set up my macro targets such that I am for 5 "meals" per day of 20-30g protein and a daily total of 120g protein. My "base" macronutrient goals (including calories, carbs, and fats in addition to protein) are manually fixed in the other tracking app based on no activity, and any additional calories from exercise and activity dynamically update calories to meet my net calorie goal and dynamically add additional carbs and fats at a 75:25 ratio to meet that calorie goal.
At present in Cronometer, it seems that macronutrient targets have to be either all fixed or all dynamic and there does not seem to be a way to have activity and exercise dynamically change goals for only some of the macronutrient targets.
Thanks!

Find Old Notes
Is there a way to see a list of all the notes I’ve ever made? I have some notes that Is like to review but I can’t remember what day I made them on 6 months ago so I don’t know how to find them other than going through 180 days of diary entries.
I’d love to click on something that says “My Notes” and it just gives me a list of notes and maybe the first few words of the note

Add a "servings" counter to help show if you're eating enough vegetables per day
It would also be helpful to count up the servings of bread or pasta, meat or fish, or dairy.

Re: Diary Search Function
Yes, this would help me, as often want to know things like:
- When I last ate this food, I also ate these other four things, let's find when that happened so I can create a recipe
- There are five listings for this SKU of sardines but they are all different, so I'd like to use the one I used last week
- What was that brand of hot dogs I like so much last month
All imported activity disappeared
I use Google fit to import activities through. Yesterday I noticed that my activities weren't being synced. After a while I looked at previous days and the entries that were there have all disappeared! Now my diary data is incorrect, because I had set activities to determine intake. It looks like there was an update the night before this happened, so I'm assuming there's a bug in that update. Is anyone else having this issue?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app as well as disconnected and reconnected Google fit. I've also used the backfill feature for Google Fit. Nothing has worked.

Re: Search diary entries for food
Thank you Karen. Please do update us on whether this is something the developers are going to really pursue, I'd hate for this to get lost in the pile of other feature requests and never heard about again.
Re: Search diary entries for food
Search is one of the fundamental advantages of computing and understandably a frequently requested feature given the nature of the app. Manually searching for previous entries is ridiculously time-consuming.
Cronometer's a good app but still no search at least ten months later, that's quite concerning.
Please add ASAP.
