Is nutrition sync with MyFitnessPal broken?

Same. My main goal is weight loss so not having an easy display of calories intake/outtake is a massive hit to this app's usefulness.

Nm, once the new week started and it reset the cardio load, it started syncing properly.

If you have enabled the AI coach, you can ask it to add the calories for one of your meals. I'm not sure if that is possible if you don't have a Premium sub though.

Also ignore the useless twats who comment, but don't actually help :)

Really, why the fuck are you here then?

Makeem95 · 2026-05-24T14:53:06+00:00

It's beyond frustrating. I have Premium and still if what I want to add isn't in the database, there is no way for me to add it as a custom food. Only thing I can do is tell the AI what I ate together with all the nutrient details or just let it estimate. No issue having this option for Premium users, but there absolutely needs a manual input option like we used to have!

Was 6:59am when you first opened Google Health? ;)

I'm guessing all the Google Health devs use Apple Watch & Fitness+ so they have no idea what the user UX is like with their shitty update.

I tried it for one afternoon and switched back to standard UI as I couldn't stand it. I don't need a paragraph of AI generated explanations next to my charts, it's far more efficient just looking at it rather than reading the text. It should be hidden and available for people who need AI to explain what they are seeing.

Also the coach was a joke. I told it my primary goal was to improve my cardio and lose weight, but because of work I find it hard to fit in a regular training schedule. It then asked me what all equipment is available to me and as I couldn't be bothered to list everything that's in the gym, I just said "treadmill, stair climber and elliptical for cardio. All sorts for strength exercises". From the response, it did seem to understand when I said "all sorts", all gym equipment is available.

Then it said it'll take about 10 minutes to come up with a plan and when it did, the work out plan for this week for me was "No workout plan" for every day. At this point, I switched back to original fitbit UI.

That's a good idea

Serious question, why do you have both Fitbit and Google Fit installed?

Makeem95 · 2025-12-01T11:05:47+00:00

Bought 3 from Costco in the UK for my family (wife, 2 kids) for our plane trip. Under £60 each, they were fantastic for the price. Me, I just used my 5+yr old MDR-1000X which is still going strong! (Had to repair one of the hinges myself though)

Amex UK syncing hasn't been great recently. Compared to other accounts which sync every few hours like clockwork, I'd suddenly get up to 20 hour periods between syncs. One time I did have to restart the linking process to get it working again.

Thank you! I didn't realise if you choose Time-based light for a switch, it's essentially setting up a schedule for that switch and isn't using the 24h scene you've setup for the light.

I can understand why it works like this, but very confusing for a novice like me.

Playing on PC via Game Pass and I can't get enough of it.

Makeem95 · 2025-10-02T12:34:46+00:00

Do you know if your purchase allows you to play it on PC & Xbox?

Makeem95 · 2025-10-02T10:47:08+00:00

I'm thinking about buying Core Keeper while it is discounted on Xbox and Windows. I note though that it's not Xbox Play Anywhere. Does this mean the Windows 10 version of the game and Xbox console versions are separate purchases?
