This article explains the new Today tab, MyFitnessPal's redesigned home screen for logging meals, water, exercise, and weight. It covers where to find your familiar features, updates to existing tools, and where to get help if you run into issues.
Since people spend most of their time in the Diary, we made it the first thing you see when you open the app. It’s now called Today. You’ll still find the features you know, plus some updates like a Streaks view to help you track your logging, a simpler layout for calories, macros, and meals, and a new Healthy Habits section for water, exercise, and steps. Food logging works just like before, so you can log meals and track macros easily.

Navigation & Finding Your Features
Upgraded Navigation
Your Diary is now your home screen! Look for the Today button in your bottom navigation. This is your main hub for daily logging.
The blue plus (+) offers one-tap access to the most common and powerful logging tools we’ve ever had, with access to our 22 million public food database.
How do I log my meals now?
Tap Log next to any meal section (Breakfast, Lunch, etc.) to be brought directly to your recent or frequently logged items or to search the food database. Or, tap the blue plus (+) at the bottom of the page to access the various other ways you can log food, water, weight, and exercise.*Some food logging features require a Premium subscription.
To log the same meal you had yesterday, you can swipe right just below the meal name to bring forward the foods last logged under that meal without needing to search or select individual items.
The process itself hasn’t changed beyond that, just the visual layout.
Where can I see my daily calories and macros?
They're prominently displayed on your Today tab with a cleaner, easier-to-read design. You'll see your Calories consumed and remaining, and a macro breakdown right at the top.
Premium and Premium+ subscribers can tap on the macronutrients to toggle between the consumed (grams), remaining (grams), and percentage of calories provided by each nutrient. Users with a free account will see just the percentage of calories provided by the macronutrients.
Premium and Premium+ subscribers can customize their macro card to show one of two extra views.
- Open the app and tap the More menu at the bottom of your screen. If you do not see a More menu, tap your Profile Icon in the top right corner of the Today tab.
- Tap Settings, then Diary Settings.
- Select Customize Nutrient Dashboard, and choose either Macros + Heart Healthy to add a fourth view for saturated fat, sodium, and fiber, or Macros + Carb Conscious to add a fourth view for carbs, sugar, and fiber.
Can I see my whole day at once?
Just above the meals, you can tap View All or View Diary to get a bird’s-eye view of everything you’ve logged today. You’ll see all your Meals in a single list separated by Meal or, from the selector at the top of the page, toggle between individual Meals.
How do I access my water and exercise tracking?
Scroll down to the Healthy Habits section at the bottom of your Today screen. You'll find water logging, logged exercise, and step tracking there.
To locate your exercise, scroll down past your Diary to the Healthy Habits section.
If you have calories earned through your logged or synced exercises, you will notice a emoji in your calories remaining bar, as well as down in the exercise section.
Premium users do have the option to turn off the calorie adjustment setting. For more information, please see Why do my daily nutrient values and calorie goal change when I log exercise?
How do I log my weight or other measurements?
Your most recently logged weight can be seen at the very bottom of the Today tab. Tap the card to jump to your weight progress, where you can log a new weight and see your past entries. Tap on “Weight” in the upper left to view different measurements.
Can I still change dates to view future or previous days?
Yes! Use the date picker by tapping on the day of the current week you want to visit or Today at the top of your screen to navigate to any day you want to view or edit. Swipe left or right to go back or forward whole weeks at a time.
Can I change the day my week starts on?
At this time, iOS users can update the start-of-week setting by tapping the More menu or the Profile Icon in the upper right of the screen. Next, tap Settings and then select Start of the week.
For Android users, this functionality is being rolled out slowly, so you may not have this ability just yet. We appreciate your patience while we continue working to make this setting available to you.
Updates to existing features
How do I copy logged foods between days or meals?
Next to your meal names, you can tap on the ••• to copy a meal you’ve already logged to the selected Meal. Or, if you’ve logged food into that meal already, copy those foods to another meal.
Copying works at the meal level, so you can reuse your favorite meals across different days with ease. Copying individual items or entire days isn't supported, but editing a copied meal afterward is always an option.
How do I quick add?
On the Today screen, tap the Log button next to the meal you want to Quick Add calories to (if you’re Premium or Premium+, you can also Quick Add macros). On the next screen, look below the search bar and tap the Quick Add button next to the Meal Scan button.
How do I delete a food?
For iOS, you can easily remove an item by swiping from right to left on the entry, then tapping Delete.
On Android, just press and hold the food item you’d like to remove. When the menu appears, select Delete entry.
Where did custom nutrients go?
Tap on Progress along the bottom of the app. Here you can keep tabs on the nutrients we track and calories by the day or week.
The Overview tab on the progress page helps you keep an eye on the details that our Nutrition team feels are key to your selected goals. And along the top of the page, you can explore the Calories, Macros, and Nutrients you’ve logged today or by the week, along with your measurements and even sleep.
See Introducing Progress Overview: Your Progress, Personalized for more information.

How do I complete my Diary for the day?
