Planning meals on mobile
Updated on 2026-07-16
The hi.fitness mobile app has a weekly meal planner that works exactly like the training planner: open My Plan → Nutrition and you get your week, day by day, with a card for every planned meal. Everything you change is saved automatically - there is no Save button to remember.
Starting a plan
If you have no plan yet, the screen offers two ways in:
- Choose a ready meal plan - browse the hi.fitness library, preview a plan day by day, and add it with one tap. It fills your week and from then on it is yours to change.
- Build your own week - start empty. Your plan begins with four meal slots (Meal 1-4) you can rename and rearrange later.
Adding meals
Tap the + in a day's header (or an empty day's card). Pick which meal of the day you are filling with the slot chips at the top, then search recipes - your own come first, followed by the hi.fitness catalog. Tap a recipe's name to read it first; tap the arrow to add it.
Each slot holds one meal per day, so adding into a taken slot replaces what was there - the app always asks first.
If a search comes up empty, the search text becomes an offer: Create "..." opens the recipe editor so you can build the dish from ingredients on the spot. Recipes you create this way land in your own recipe library for reuse.
Reading and editing a recipe
Tap a meal card to read its recipe: macros, ingredients, and preparation. The pencil in the corner opens the editor, where you can add or remove ingredients and adjust amounts - the calorie count updates as you type.
Editing a shared recipe never changes the original: the app quietly makes a private copy just for your plan.
Rearranging your week
Press and hold a meal card for its actions: replace it, rename it or set its time, move it to another day, change its meal slot, duplicate it to a free day, or remove it.
The ⋯ button at the top holds the plan-level actions: import a meal plan, manage your meal slots (add, rename, remove), duplicate the current week, or clear it. With more than one week, the week selector above Monday switches between them.
Coach plans and other devices
A plan your coach assigned opens in the same planner. Date-based (calendar) plans show real dates under the week selector and open on the current week.
Your plan syncs with the web app and the Calories tab's meal suggestions. If the plan changes somewhere else while you have unsaved edits on your phone, the app asks which version to keep instead of overwriting either one silently. Changes made offline are saved on your phone and sent as soon as you are back online.
