Since our last update, we’ve had a few changes ourselves! We moved to a brand new office here in Revelsoke, BC, allowing us to expand – and hired more developers to get to new features faster, and more data curators and customer support to ensure we are providing the best service possible.
We’ll get some more personnel updates in the Team area of the forums over the next few weeks https://forums.cronometer.com/categories/begin-here .
Also, we’ve got the following that we are almost complete on, we hope to release very soon:
Oura Integration
HeadsUp Health Integration
We’ll keep busy improving the world’s best nutrition app 😊

Looks good, I have a few comments/suggestions.
Thanks again for the update, I have used the fitbit tracker and mfp but within a week of using Cronometer, I signed up for Gold - absolutely love it, even though a lot of the food has a US bais (understandably), you need to get more curators in the other regions like the UK
(here to help if that is an option)
Hi @Vji6697 -- yes you'll be able to edit times to any value including none. We won't have fasting features right away, bit this will allow us to build some in the future.

The update that went out today is using stronger colors for the macro-nutrient graphs. These are a poor choice for text readability. The older colors, the ones still used on the nutrient target breakouts, are very readable. They work because the black text works on the light background while the graph is not filled, and on the soft colors while the graph is filled. Please go back to the softer colors on the macro target graphs. Using Safari 11.1.1 on macOS 10.13.5
The update that went out yesterday lost 2 features I loved:
I need these for balancing my diet macronutrients quickly. To accomplish the first feature now, I have to select the food items, create a recipe from them and examine the recipe on the foods page--what a pain. Please put these features back on the diary page.
@MikeM FYI Selecting anything in the diary should filter the 'CONSUMED' pie chart to the selection.

Yes! I really thought this wasn't working yesterday, but it is today. Thank you! One more request: could you put back the tenths of percentages in the calories summary pie chart? The tenths are so useful for seeing how much of an adjustment I need in my consumption when I am trying to hit my daily macronutrient percentages.
