## What is Meal Replacement Tracker?

Meal replacement tracker, the easiest way to keep track of your meal replacement program. 

MR tracker is simple and easy to use. Simply select the week and the day then mark the meals, optional items, and water as you eat/drink them. 

The day rings will serve as a reminder to what you have already completed and what you have left.

It’s easy to make it a goal to close the meal ring and the water ring daily.

Record you daily weight on the input screen and view it on the overview screen next to your food and water rings.  Color coded to show an increase, decrease, or neutral change in weight.

Local push notifications are used to remind you to eat a meal every 2.5 hours.  Notifications can be customized with the In-App Purchase - "Custom Alarm".  Reminders start after you click your 1st checkbox for the day.

Current meal plans are:  Standard, Nursing Mother, 4MR2 and 5MR2.

Choose the amount of weeks you want to do the program.  Standard plan can change Burn and Transition weeks.  The other plans can only change the Burn weeks.

Take pictures at the Start, Middle and End of your program.

Record body measurements at the Start, Middle and End of your program.

Restart button to erase all data and start the program over fresh.

Added support for iCloud Backup and Sync.  Your data will automatically be backed up and synced to your iCloud account and will automatically show up and sync with your other Apple devices using the same Apple ID.

***In-App Purchase - Custom Alarm Notification.  Set you default alarm notification interval.  Interval ranges from 15 min to 3 hours 30 min in increments of 15 min.  You can also set a 1-time alarm notification for you next meal after you checkmark a meal.  1 time alarm notifications don't change the overall default alarm notification interval.  This is great for those times when you forgot to checkmark a meal and need a shorter alarm notification for your next meal or if you know you have an appointment when your next meal is supposed to be, you can set the 1 time alarm notification for before or after your appointment.

***In-App Purchase - Overview Details.  The Overview Screen can now show a graph representation of your weight for the week and your overall weight in graph form, min, max, and current weight.  It will also show what time your next meal is at the top of the screen.  It will also create a Live Activity on your lock screen with a timer counting down until your next meal.  *It will also show in the Dynamic Island if your device supports it.

***In-App Purchase - Remove Ads.  Removes ads from the app.  As a bonus you get an extra row of water icons to fill up the space normally used for ads.

Portrait orientation only.

Ads are used at the bottom of the screen.

### 5/5 — Was great - but won’t open after upgrade

*2025-04-24, version 1.40*

Love love love the app.  But since the upgrade yesterday - the app won’t open.  I feel lost without it! iPhone 13 - IOS 18.3.2.   Help!!!

### 4/5 — Meal replacer app- needs more detail

*2021-11-29, version 1.32*

This is good at tracking basic Optavia plan requirements.  I feel it could go a step further to be able to track lean ozs and 1/2 condiments.

### 3/5 — More

*2021-09-08, version 1.32*

Include a automatic calculator for amount and limits for the day.

### 4/5 — After transition what next? How about adding the 3&3?

*2021-07-19, version 1.32*

This app has been such a help in my 5&1 journey- I’m starting transition and it’s not a perfect match. But then at the end of transition, what next? I’d love to keep using it if there was a 3&3 option.

### 5/5 — Great App for Optiva 5-1 Plan

*2021-07-09, version 1.32*

Overall I think this app is great! It follows the plan to a tee. It shows exactly what is requires and automatically has timer for next fueling. You can put in pictures and measurements 3 times. Couple of improvements would be options to add more weeks, more pictures & measurements. I know I can reset the app, but prefer to see total journey on one app. My journey will be longer than 12 weeks.

### 3/5 — Not Perfect But Not Bad

*2021-07-08, version 1.32*

I have to say this app is better than any I’ve seen for tracking the 5&1 meal plan. I would really like to see the Meal Overview screen designed so I don’t have to scroll to the current week. I’m just starting out with this plan, but after week 4 it’s going to be a pain. 

I’m going to use this for a while longer to see if it holds up, before deciding to upgrade for the other options.

### 4/5 — Jump to Current Week

*2021-03-11, version 1.29*

I really like this app and use it daily on my fitness and diet journey. The ore recommendation and request I would like to make is to add the ability to jump to the week and day for the current measurements and tracking when opening the app or responding to a notification. Getting to the current week is scrolling nightmare after many weeks of use.

### 4/5 — Works great

*2021-01-11, version 1.28*

Meal Replacer works great for Optivia 5&1 I only wish it would sync with iPhone and iPad. I started with the iPad and when I’m out I tried use my iPhone and it doesn’t sync. Too bad!

### 1/5 — Burn phase is burned w

*2020-10-13, version 1.28*

App doesn’t let you change the Burn phase except for 12 weeks and greater.  My Burn phase is only 3 weeks

### 4/5 — Seems good except...

*2020-10-07, version 1.28*

I’m new to this app, but it seems to remove your measurements and photos periodically.
