What does Liftando cost?
Nothing. There’s no subscription, no premium version, no in-app purchases and no ads. Every feature is open to everyone.
Do I need a credit card?
No. To sign up you only need a name, an email address and a password. Liftando never asks for payment details.
What’s the catch?
There’s no hidden one. Two honest limits: the AI features have a daily limit of 60 requests, and Liftando works with estimates, so it doesn’t replace a professional. Everything else is yours without restrictions.
Do I need an internet connection at the gym?
No. Liftando saves a workout in progress on your device and syncs it as soon as you’re back online. You can also add entries to your food diary offline.
Is Liftando in the App Store?
No, and you don’t need it. Liftando is a web app you install straight from your browser: on iPhone via ‘Share’ and ‘Add to Home Screen’, on Android via ‘Install app’. For Android there’s also a dedicated app with Health Connect, downloaded directly from Liftando.
Where do the nutritional values come from?
From five open food composition databases: the Max Rubner-Institut’s German Nutrient Database (BLS 4.0), the FSVO’s Swiss Food Composition Database, Anses’ French Ciqual table, the UK’s CoFID (McCance and Widdowson, Public Health England) and USDA FoodData Central. Search shows your region’s database first. We look up packaged products by barcode on Open Food Facts, and only the barcode is sent.
How does Liftando calculate my calorie target?
At the start, from your height, weight, age and activity level. After that, Liftando compares what you’ve eaten each week with your weight trend to estimate what you really need. The app suggests any adjustment, and you confirm it.
What happens to my data when I use the AI coach?
Only if you switch the coach on do we send the data needed for an answer to AI models running on Cloudflare in Europe and worldwide. Cloudflare doesn’t use it to train models. You can withdraw your consent at any time in Settings.
Does Liftando replace professional nutrition or training advice?
No. Liftando works with estimates and makes suggestions. If you have symptoms or pre-existing conditions, are pregnant or have an eating disorder, talk to a professional first.
