How to update your meal planning preferences

Set your plan length, shopping days and shopping method under Meal Planning in Settings.

Written for the Aioli iPhone app. Last updated

Your meal planning preferences set how long a new plan runs and when Aioli expects you to shop. You can change them whenever your routine changes.

Update your preferences

  1. Open the Settings tab and tap Meal Planning.
  2. Under How Far Ahead You Shop, tap 3, 5 or 7 days. For another length, tap Custom Duration, enter the number of days and tap Set.
  3. Under Preferred Shopping Days, tap each day you usually buy groceries. You can choose more than one.
  4. Under Shopping Method, choose I shop in-store, I use delivery/pickup, Mix of both or I rarely/never do the shopping.

Changes save automatically. There is no Save button. If a change does not save, you see an alert and can try again.

How your choices are used

  • When you create a meal plan, Aioli fills in the start and end dates from your shopping days and plan length. Plans you already made do not change.
  • Aioli uses your shopping days to time shopping and prep reminders.
  • Your shopping method helps Aioli tailor future tips, reminders and recommendations.
