New features in the Monash FODMAP Diet App (iOS)

App Updates November 2026_Blog Header

The Monash FODMAP Team, 12 November 2026

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.

Add foods from the Food Guide into the Diary

You can now log foods straight from the Food Guide into your Diary! Choose your food entries based on the low (green), moderate (amber), or high (red) portion sizes in the Food Guide, or enter a custom amount in grams or ounces.

Adding food entries into the Diary

When adding meals to your Diary, quickly select from your Starred, Notes, Shopping List, or Recently Logged items instead of searching from scratch every time.

Reintroduction reminders

Stay on track during your reintroduction step with helpful notification reminders. Receive prompts to:

  • Log any symptoms a few hours after each reintroduction dose
  • Log Days 2 and 3 of a reintroduction challenge.

Choose your preferred serve size order

You can now choose how serve sizes are displayed in the Food Guide. The main traffic light icon still shows the overall rating, but the order of the individual serves below the food can now be changed based on your preference. Choose the order of the serve sizes based on:

  • Standard serve size: Displays the standard serving first (e.g., 75g for fresh fruit and vegetables).
  • FODMAP level (green to red): Displays the low-FODMAP portion first, followed by amber and red amounts.
  • Weight ascending: Displays the smallest serving size first.
  • Weight descending: Displays the largest serving size first.

Note - if you have custom filters active, this shows the maximum tolerated green portion.

iCloud syncing

Your app data, including diary entries, shopping lists, filters, notes, and favorites, now automatically syncs across all Apple devices connected to the same Apple ID when iCloud is enabled. iCloud must be turned on in both the phone settings and the app settings.

Diary charts

Track symptoms, stress levels, bowel movements, and reintroductions over time in the new Diary History tab. Analyze patterns over a 7, 14, or 28-day window to share insights with your dietitian. Hold your finger down on one of the tabs to view an individual pattern in the chart.

Export your Diary entries and trend charts into a clean PDF summary. Select your preferred date range and export format, then generate a report to review yourself or email directly to your dietitian.
