The tools also save your favorites and include a list of restaurant favorites with the points plus values already calculated.
The iPhone application is filled with features that most members don’t even know exist. I was surprised at my meeting when our leader talked about the app that about 90% of the iPhone app users did not know that they can slide their finger to the left from the home page and reveal a new page full of features like Cheat Sheets, Shopping Lists, Featured Weight Watchers Recipes, Articles from the Weight Watchers website, some Weight Watchers member success stories and meeting finder. Another unknown feature in the Weight Watchers iPhone app is the Reminders feature. Let your iPhone send you reminders throughout the day to track your breakfast, lunch or dinner and even add some customized reminders maybe to remind you to take on some activity? It’s up to you. This can be found on the second page by clicking on “About the App” then “Settings” then scroll to the bottom and set your “Custom Reminders.” It is that easy. Just about it in “Meal Tracking” you can set your meal time reminders so at 1:00PM you can get a message asking you did you track your Lunch? You can modify this time to whatever suits your schedule in true Weight Watchers style allowing you to make the program fit to your needs. Dig even deeper into the app click and my profile and update your Weight Watcher member online status, look at photos tracking your progress and see your Weight Watchers milestones.
The Weight Watchers New Points Plus iPhone application is working well. With access to all your favourite e-tools at the palm of your hands in an easy to use interface. The iPhone points plus tracker calculates your daily points, weekly points and factors in your Activity points when you earn them. All in a very easy to navigate and read interface.

Weight Watchers Points Plus Calculator – Android Blackberry
If you have a Blackberry or Android phone you may be looking for the Weight Watchers Blackberry app or Weight Watchers Android app. Unfortunately there is no full program app for your devices but you can download (again it will only work if you are a member or etools subscriber) an called PointsPlus Calculator which gives you the functionality of the calculator only. It does not store favourite foods or track your points just calculates the points when you enter the Fat, Carbs, Fiber and Protein Values. It also will calculate Activity points. Unfortunately that is about it which is bad news for members holding a Blackberry or Android phone looking for an app that gives them their program in the palm of their hands. Sorry to be the barer of bad news.
