We always aim to make improvements to the Monash FODMAP Diet App based on reviews and feedback from our users, and so we’ve been working behind the scenes to bring a number of exciting new features to the app! These updates are designed to make your low FODMAP journey smoother, whether you’re navigating it independently or alongside a FODMAP-trained dietitian.
At this stage, these updates are only available in the iOS version of the app. For our Android users, these will be on their way to you soon!
To access these new features, your iOS must be minimum iOS 18, and the app must be at minimum Version 5.0.1 or above. In the App Store, select the avatar icon at the top right corner of the App Store homepage, then scroll down to search for our app and select ‘Update’. You can also simply search for ‘Monash FODMAP’ in either app store and select ‘Update’ when you have located the app.
To check your app version, go to Settings on the app home screen, scroll down to About this App, and look for the version number listed there.
