Login requirement.
Hi,
I would like the option to stay logged in forever and never enter my password again. Both Yahoo and Hotmail have this option that they will remember my password for a month or more. They occasionally make me log in, but not every hour or so.
I personally don't think my eating habits need to be that secure and find it more frustrating to constantly be logging in. It's especially tough to do so with the iphone app and the small keyboard.
Please give me the option to save my username/password and stay logged on indefinitely.
Also,
I have tried all of the calorie counters and I always come back to fitday. FitDay has the best reports. You do a great job.
Thanks,
Robby

Carrie,
This is the desired functionality. We can't log a user in without their password -- users still have to login to each session. You need to enable a 3rd-party browser-based password keeper for that.
We are exploring the ability to stay logged in to the forums in the future. Stay tuned.

I have no problem with staying logged into to the FitDay Forums. I can leave for hours and when I come back I am still logged in. It is only the food journal that requires me to sign back in. I would guess that is a security feature?

Security on this site is very very tight, even by comparison to other IB sites, which is saying something. We have discussed a user option coupled with a "do you want to stay logged in?" reminder, but it has to be vetted a bit more before we could add it as an option. I'll keep you posted.

LOL. I ate a Black Forrest Ham and Swiss Cheese hoagie today. Shame on me! Hey, it's all about portion control, logging, and hitting the numbers, right?
Anyway, I just wanted to state that I'm using Camino as my browser (Mac) and while my username is remembered for the food journal, my password is not. This version of Camino uses the Gecko engine, the same as FireFox 3.6.
