+
== Generate a plan ==
−
== In the app ==
+
Open '''Planner''' from the Nutrition menu.
−
Open '''More''' → '''Your Food Plans''' → '''Meal Planner'''.
+
# Choose how many days to plan (3, 5, or 7).
+
# Tap '''Generate with mobieusAI.'''
+
# Give it a moment. It builds one day at a time, so a longer plan takes a little longer, and a friendly overlay shows the progress.
−
1. Choose how many days to plan: '''1, 3, 5, or 7'''.
−
1. Choose whether to '''include two snacks'''. With snacks off, those calories go into breakfast, lunch and dinner rather than disappearing. The three meals carry the whole day.
−
1. Tap '''Build my plan'''.
+
Generating again replaces the current plan. Your plan is built to your daily calorie and macro targets, so it lines up with what you already track in [[Calorie and macro tracking]].
−
It builds one day at a time, so a week takes up to a minute. Building a new plan replaces the one you have.
+
== Read the plan ==
−
If you have not set your calorie and macro targets yet, the planner sends you to set them first. It will not guess.
+
Each day is a card with its meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack. Every meal shows its name, calories, and protein, carbs, and fat, plus the ingredients. At the bottom of each day is a '''day total''' against your target, with the difference called out so you can see how close it lands.
−
=== Reading a day ===
+
== Log a day ==
−
Pick a day along the top, and each meal comes up as a card with its name, calories, protein, carbs and fat, a short line on how to make it, and its ingredients. Above the cards, the '''day total''' shows how the day lands against each of your targets, and marks a day that falls outside them.
+
Like what a day holds? Use '''Log this day''' to drop all of its meals into your food tracker for a date you choose. From there it behaves like anything else you logged. See [[Logging food]].
−
=== Changing one meal ===
+
== Build a shopping list ==
−
Do not fancy something? Tap '''Swap''' on that card. Only that meal changes. The rest of the plan stays exactly as it was, and the replacement is checked against your targets and your never-eat list before it appears.
+
Turn a plan into groceries in one step:
−
=== Logging what you ate ===
+
* '''From the plan''': build a shopping list from every meal in the current plan. It is grouped by aisle so shopping is quick, and it is pantry-aware, so it leans on the '''On hand''' ingredients you already keep.
+
* '''From saved meals''': pick any of your [[Meal planner|saved meals]] and build a list from just those.
−
Every card has '''Log this''', and each day has '''Log the whole day'''. Either way the meals land in your food log exactly as if you had entered them yourself, so your totals, widgets and reports all pick them up. See [[Logging food]].
+
You can '''Print''' the list or '''Download''' the plan and shopping list together to take with you.
−
== The shopping list ==
−
−
One list for the whole plan, never one per day. If a recipe on Monday needs two eggs and one on Thursday needs three, the list says '''five eggs'''. Quantities in different units are added up properly, and where two measures cannot be combined honestly (200 g of spinach and a bunch of spinach), you get both lines rather than a guess.
−
−
Items are grouped by aisle, and anything already in your pantry is left off without you asking. That is the '''On hand''' list you keep on the web. Tick items as you shop; the ticks are saved and show up on your other devices.
−
−
== Taking it with you ==
−
−
From the planner's menu:
−
−
* '''Email the plan.''' The whole plan and the shopping list, handed to your mail app.
−
* '''Download as PDF.''' A printable copy, saved to your device.
−
* '''Copy shopping list.''' The list as plain text, ready to paste into your notes app.
−
−
All three happen on your device. Nothing is emailed or uploaded on your behalf.
−
−
== Offline ==
−
−
A plan you have already built, and its shopping list, work with no signal. That is the point, because no signal is what a supermarket usually has. Building a new plan or swapping a meal needs a connection, and the app says so rather than hanging.
== How it uses your preferences ==
+
The planner respects the same preferences as the rest of mobieusHealth: your diet style, your favorites and dislikes, and your never-eat safety list. Set these up in [[Setting up your profile]]. To keep a running list of what is in your kitchen, use the '''On hand''' pantry on the [[Logging food]] page.
−
The planner follows your diet style, your favorites and dislikes, and your '''never-eat''' list. Nothing on that list appears in a meal, in an ingredient, or on the shopping list, including things made from it, so avoiding peanuts also avoids peanut oil and peanut butter. If a plan ever fails that check it is not shown to you at all; you are asked to build another. Set these up in [[Setting up your profile]].
−
−
== On the web ==
−
−
The web planner at '''Planner''' in the Nutrition menu still works as it always has: 3, 5 or 7 days, a shopping list built from the plan or from your saved meals, and '''Print''' or '''Download''' to take it with you. The app planner is the newer one and is where snacks, swapping, ticking off and syncing live.
== Quicker single ideas ==
+
Want one idea rather than a whole plan? The '''What should I eat next?''' button on [[Logging food]] gives three suggestions that fit your remaining macros for right now.
−
Want one idea rather than a whole plan? '''What should I eat next?''' on [[Logging food]] gives three suggestions that fit the macros you have left right now. If you are out, [[Eating out]] does the same for a restaurant.
