Wellest now has more ingredients than ever, expanding to include common grocery and restaurant foods. We updated how food is displayed throughout the app and added a suite of new tools to search for, save, and use food in meals and recipes.
We also introduced a number of small improvements across the app based on the biggest daily execution pain points that you shared with us.
Check out the improvements in detail below and reach out to us via in-app chat to let us know what you think.
