Question 4

What's the difference between guest and registered users?

Accepted Answer

Guest users have access to all core features but data is only stored locally. Registered users get cloud sync, can add friends, participate in leaderboards, and access their data from multiple devices. Premium features also require an account.

Question 5

How do daily quests work?

Accepted Answer

Each day you receive personalized quests based on your level and activity. Quests have multiple actions to complete (like logging meals or drinking water). Complete all actions to earn the quest's points. New quests appear daily at midnight.

Question 6

What are quest chains and how do they work?

Accepted Answer

Quest chains are multi-day progressive challenges. You must complete Day 1 to unlock Day 2, and so on. They offer bigger rewards (100-500 points) but require consistency. Missing a day breaks the chain and you'll need to start over.

Question 7

How does the points and leveling system work?

Accepted Answer

Earn points by completing quests, tracking nutrition, logging weight, and playing mini-games. Every 1000 XP advances you one level. Higher levels unlock new avatars, features, and harder quests with better rewards.

Question 8

What are special quests?

Accepted Answer

Special quests appear for limited times and offer unique challenges like '7-Day Keto Warrior' or 'Macro Master Challenge'. They provide larger point rewards and exclusive achievements but have specific time limits to complete.

Question 9

How do I use coins in the app?

Accepted Answer

Coins are earned by leveling up, completing achievements, and quest milestones. Spend them in the Shop to purchase avatars (100-500 coins) or boosters that multiply your point earnings temporarily.

Question 10

What happens if I don't complete a quest?

Accepted Answer

Incomplete daily quests expire at midnight and can't be finished later. However, there's no penalty - you'll get fresh quests the next day. Chain quests will reset if you miss a day.

How do I track my food and macros?
