Quick Menu Customization
3rd Oct, 2025Today on Bearly Fit (well technically last night) I have mostly been improving the quick menu!
The quick menu is accessed through the home screen, it gives you quick access to add different types of logs.
I realised that not everyone wants every button in this menu so instead of having a fixed approach I've made it fully customizable!
Allowing someone to:
- add new buttons
- remove a button
- reorder buttons
Later this will become a global menu allowing someone to access it anywhere in the app.
And over time I'll also add more options to do things like:
- Start session
- Scan barcode
- Launch a website / another app
- etc
Let me know what you think!
