Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about the Apple Test, tracking, accounts, privacy, AI Coach, and using NourishNot on another device.

Do I have to create an account?

No. Basic NourishNot use remains available anonymously. Google history protection is optional.

What does Yes mean?

Yes means you feel you would willingly eat the simple test food and may be physically hungry. It is your observation, not a diagnosis or certainty.

What does No mean?

No suggests another influence may be involved, such as a specific craving, emotion, tiredness, habit, comfort, or surroundings. No is not a judgment and does not prove you should not eat.

Can I change a Sleep entry?

Yes. Open the saved date in the Sleep Log, adjust its duration or restfulness rating, and Save. You can also Cancel without saving or Remove an existing entry.

Is sleep detected automatically?

No. Sleep is entered manually. NourishNot does not currently integrate with Health Connect or automatically detect sleep.

What is the difference between an urge and Daily Mood?

An urge-related emotion describes a specific No check-in. Daily Mood is a separate end-of-day view of how the day felt overall.

What are Mindful Days?

A Mindful Day begins with at least one meaningful recorded check-in and no recorded non-hunger eating urge for that day. A day with no data is not automatically counted as Mindful.

What does Protect My History do?

Optional Google protection can help reconnect you to the same NourishNot history after reinstalling or using another device. It does not make login mandatory for basic use.

Is Location Sharing required?

No. NourishNot works without location. The app-level Location Sharing choice and Android’s location permission are separate.

Does NourishNot show ads?

No. NourishNot does not show advertising. Requested online features may still communicate with NourishNot services.

Is AI Coach medical advice?

No. AI Coach offers AI-generated reflection prompts. It is not a doctor, therapist, dietitian, emergency service, or replacement for professional care.

Can I use NourishNot without PRO?

Yes. Core check-ins and basic tracking remain available without PRO. Optional PRO areas include features such as AI Coach, Predictive Insights, Mindful Moments, reports, awards, Sleep Analysis, and export-related tools as presented in the app.

What happens if I change phones?

If you protected your history with Google, sign in on the new installation and follow any restore or merge prompt. Some restored historical views may use aggregate evidence. If an anonymous history was never protected and all local app data is lost, it may not be recoverable.
