Love the ease of use with Groups and Favorites. Purchased the Pro version to get salt from similar items and meals. Please, change the goal feature to allow option to retain history plus option to apply new goal to my history or retain history with old goal. Currently changing goal deletes all history.

The food database is my main peeve with the paid app. I got used to the one used by Carb Manager, and it’s much more thorough and flexible. With Sodium Tracker, one can’t submit error reports for nutrition content or create a personal food for one’s own Favorites or publish it to the app’s database. I have to look up everything for sodium content as I log each item. I can input a food from scratch without having to add it from a database, which Carb Manager makes you do, but their database and verification process seem as though they’re really trying to help users log their entries accurately. Most are on the Keto diet, and it helps that. Sodium Tracker does a good job tracking sodium intake, and the auxiliary information is of use. It could just be better. Being able to copy a food item to other days or meals on that same day would also be helpful. It’s difficult to cut and paste manually. I will keep using Sodium Tracker, but I may only resort to the complementary version.

I have been using this app to track my sodium levels for almost 3 months now. There are times that the bar scanner will not scan the barcode, it’s usually the short barcodes, or it comes up with the wrong information on the sodium levels. It would be nice to add the ability when creating a group to be able to set the total sodium for all the ingredients in a dish and then set a serving size. That way you could select a dish and then select the number of servings to be added. (Ex. A spaghetti dish I have used has a total of 1080 mg of sodium and the serving size is 1/2 cup. Which makes that 180 mg per serving. It would be nice if the app would take all the ingredients and then ask what the serving size is and do the calculations for you. Right now I have to add it all up and then go back in and manually change the sodium amount so I a correct amount that I am using.) An update to the app with this suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
