KetoDiet and KetoDiet Basic Update (April 2017)

Welcome Screen

We created a welcome screen to serve two purposes:

1. To highlight the main features of the app (see screenshot above).
2. To clarify what's included and what's optional in our app. We can see that from the AppStore reviews some people are confused about how much content is included in the app without requiring any optional purchases.
   

There's almost 100 recipes included in the Starter package, and there's over 450 recipes provided via our integrated blog (more recipes are added every few days).

How is KetoDiet different from other Apps?

• We create all our content and recipes exclusively for our app. We don't scrape recipes from the web.
• We have deep integration for all our recipes so they can be added to the Planner, their serving size can be adjusted, ingredients can be added to the basket, etc. (available for iOS, Android coming soon)
• We continuously provide free recipes and articles via our integrated blog. I cannot emphasise enough how much time and effort it takes to create them - and we provide them for free.
• Since we released KetoDiet in 2012, we have been working on frequent and continuous updates, improving and adding new features driven by your feedback.

New Support Portal

We have created a support portal to make it easier for our users to find answers to common questions. You can find in Help > Support.

Recently Added Meals

Recently added meals can be now found in the Planner so you can quickly add meals you use most recently (screenshot below).

New Measurements Added

We added liquid measurements to ingredients measured in cups, tbsp or fl oz: millilitres - ml, decilitres - dl, and fluid ounces - fl oz (screenshot below).

Other Improvements

• Major performance improvements
• Improved memory utilisation
• Several bug fixes

What's Next?

Next updates (April-May 2017)

• New KetoDiet App guide - our online tutorial on how to use our app.
• Enhance warnings/stats for meeting macronutrient targets
• Universal search across all recipes when adding them to the Planner (blog meals, KetoDiet meals, custom meals, etc)
• Multi-user account support with data sync and fast user switching. This feature will be free for the first account. Any additional accounts will be available to buy for $0.99 USD per month to cover the cost of processing and storing the additional data on our servers.

Upcoming updates in 2017

• Barcode scanning. We strive for quality, not quantity. Accuracy is our key priority and unlike all other apps, we won't be using a crowdsourced database - we will use a verified database.
• Adding new restaurant chains to our database to quickly find keto-friendly options when eating out
• Adding new meals into the Starter pack and existing optional recipe packages (once you get any package, any recipes added in the future are always free!)
• Data export, especially progress stats
• Copy & paste planner meals for quick planning
• Apple Watch support
• Activity tracking & Health App integration
• Ketone tracking, glucose tracking, and more tracking options
• Integration with KetoDiet meal plans (free and premium 7-day, 14-day and 28-day diet plans directly in the Planner with just one click)
• KetoDiet Challenges & community integration
• Add recipe user notes in custom meals so that you have all you need to make your favourite recipe
• Adding "favorites" to the Planner so you can quickly add frequently used meals. This feature may be added depending on user feedback. We just included a new feature for Recently added meals which works in a similar way.
• New recipe packages - requested by users (American Favorites, Vegetarian Recipes, Easy & Simple 2nd Edition and Keto Treats)

The features are driven by your feedback! Feel free to leave a comment if you have anything else you would like us to add and if it's something we can do, we'll do our best to implement it in future updates.

How About Android?

We've been working on the fully featured KetoDiet Android app and we expect to release it in mid 2017. As with all software, it's very hard to give precise estimates and KetoDiet is a fairly complex app.

We should be able to start beta-testing in the next few months and will notify everyone who's included. If you wish to be included, please, send us an e-mail via this form - leaving a comment below won't work, you need to send us an e-mail.
