01 — What it does
01 — What it does
Most apps hand you an empty diary and you decide what to eat all over again at every meal. YiYo builds a 7-day plan with set times and calories that add up. There is nothing left to decide when you wake up.
02 — What it does
Do you work shifts, do you live in a dorm, do you have access to a kitchen — these are asked too, and turned into a day-by-day limit on prep time. If you have a desk job, you will not get a forty-minute oven recipe on a weekday.
03 — What it does
When you stray from the plan, photograph your plate or scan the package barcode. No scales, no notebook, no hunting for gram values — you just confirm the portion.
02 — How it works
The plan is not picked from ready-made templates; it is built from your answers. You state your limits once and every new plan is prepared around them.
01 — How it works
Age, height, weight, goal and your daily routine — a few minutes of short questions. Your goal can be losing weight, building muscle, gaining weight or maintaining.
02 — How it works
Your diet style, allergens, health conditions and the foods you dislike. Whatever you flag is left out when the plan is built.
03 — How it works
For most people tracking ends on day three. Once you have marked every meal of the week, your analysis arrives on its own; on a monthly plan, next week's plan is also built without you lifting a finger. You set the meal, water and activity reminders yourself.
03 — Trust
Your calorie target is not asked of an AI. It is calculated on the server with published formulas. The AI only picks meals that fit that target — and what it picks is checked again.
Every plan the AI produces is checked again on the server: if it misses the calorie target, it is corrected; if a meal does not fit that day's prep limits, that meal is regenerated.
Photo and barcode results are estimates; you always confirm the portion yourself.
04 — Who it is for
Vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, gluten-free, lactose-free. The plan is built that way from the start.
Gluten, lactose, egg, shellfish, fish, nuts, soy. Whatever you flag is passed to the AI as off-limits; still, check what goes into each meal yourself.
You can flag diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, coeliac disease, Hashimoto's and kidney conditions; they are taken into account when the plan is generated, but the result is not a medical diet. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have kidney disease, diabetes treated with medication or insulin, or a history of eating disorders, use YiYo under the supervision of a doctor or dietitian.
If you eat out, if your family cooks for you, or if you can only cook at weekends, the plan comes accordingly.
The app does not leave you staring at an empty screen; it explains what calorie tracking is and how it works during setup.
You choose Levantine and Turkish, Mediterranean, Western or Asian cuisine; meals come from that frame.
05 — Recipes
Flag whatever is in your fridge — 350 ingredients across nine categories, and add your own if something is missing. Get a recipe that fits your preferences; cook it step by step and turn it into a meal with one tap. Save the ones you like and use them again next week.
06 — FAQ
No, it is free. Every feature is unlocked — no subscription, no locked features, no ads.
No. The meals in the plan come with their portions. When you eat something outside the plan you photograph it or scan the package barcode.
They are estimates. Photo analysis and the barcode database are not exact; you always confirm the portion. Treat the numbers as a direction, not a precise measurement.
Yes. You choose your diet style and allergens during setup, and the plan is built around them. If you have an allergy, still check what goes into each meal.
You can flag these conditions during setup and they are taken as input when the plan is generated. But YiYo does not give medical advice: talk to your doctor or dietitian before changing your diet. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have kidney disease, diabetes treated with medication or insulin, or a history of eating disorders, use YiYo only under their supervision.
Yes. Your plan and daily tracking are also stored on your device, but for now you need a connection to open the app and sign in, to generate a new plan, and to analyse photos or look up barcodes.
Data is kept primarily on your device and backed up to your account. The photos you take are not stored — they are analysed and dropped. You can delete your account and all your data from inside the app. Details are in the Privacy Policy.
iOS only for now. The Google Play version is coming soon.
Free. No subscription, no locked features, no ads. The moment you finish the questions, your first weekly plan is ready.
YiYo is not a health institution, a dietitian or a medical doctor. The plans it offers are for information only and do not replace medical advice. During pregnancy or breastfeeding, and for people with kidney disease, diabetes treated with medication or insulin, or a history of eating disorders, the app should only be used under the supervision of a doctor or dietitian.
