How it works

Simple by design

No calorie counting. No restrictions. Just gradual, sustainable change.

1

Choose your pace

Easy, Medium, or Difficult — you decide how fast you want to change. There's no wrong answer.

2

Log your meals

Add foods to your breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. The app auto-detects whether each is real, minimal, or ultra-processed.

3

Follow your phase

Progress through 5 phases — from simply noticing what you eat to living the real food lifestyle.

4

Watch the trend

Your weekly quality score shows your direction of travel. Progress, not perfection.

Frequently asked questions

Is Real Food free?

Yes, completely. There is no subscription, no premium tier, and no hidden charges. Download and use it for free.

How does the auto-classification work?

When you type a food name, the app uses the NOVA classification system combined with a database of common brand names and foods to automatically suggest whether it's real, minimal, or ultra-processed. You can always override the suggestion.

What are the 5 phases?

Phase 1 is about awareness — just log what you eat. Phase 2 introduces one swap per day. Phase 3 focuses on anchoring a real food breakfast. Phase 4 aims for two cooked meals a day. Phase 5 is the real food lifestyle, where 80%+ of your diet is real or minimally processed food.

Can I go at my own pace?

Yes. Choose Easy (longer phases), Medium, or Difficult (shorter phases) when you start. You can change your pace at any time in Settings.

Is my data private?

All your food diary data is stored only on your device. Nothing is sent to external servers. Your diary is completely private.
