Frequently asked questions
Everything an athlete asks about NYUS — answered.
Can’t find it? Contact us.
Is NYUS free?
Yes. NYUS is free on Google Play with no ads and no selling of your data. The full app — adaptive training, nutrition tracking, recovery and the AI coach — is free, with no credit card required.
What is NYUS?
NYUS is a free AI fitness and nutrition coach for serious athletes. It builds and recalibrates your training, nutrition and recovery plan every 7 days from what you log, using three frontier AI models.
How do I get started?
Install NYUS from Google Play, answer a short onboarding (body stats, goals, dietary preferences, equipment), and the AI builds your custom plan in under ten minutes.
How long does setup take?
Under ten minutes. The onboarding is a few focused questions, not a survey marathon, and you can change any goal later.
Does NYUS track Indian foods and macros?
Yes. NYUS is built India-first with 800+ Indian foods — roti, dal, paneer, idli, biryani and more — carrying verified macros, logged in the units your kitchen uses (rotis, katoris, grams). You can also layer 50+ global cuisines on top.
How accurate are the macros?
NYUS uses real, verified macro values for Indian and global foods rather than the closest American substitute, so your protein, carbs and fat are right, not approximated.
Can I swap meals I don’t like?
Yes. Swap any meal in three taps and your macros recompute live. Allergy and preference filters (veg, Jain, eggetarian and more) are respected and never overridden.
Does it work for vegetarians and Jain diets?
Yes. NYUS has veg, Jain and eggetarian filters that hold across your whole plan.
How often does my plan change?
Every 7 days. NYUS reads what you actually logged that week — training, nutrition and recovery — and recalibrates next week’s plan accordingly.
Do I need a wearable like Whoop or Oura?
No. NYUS syncs steps, sleep, heart rate, active energy, workouts and weight from any Android wearable via Health Connect. There is no dedicated device to buy.
Does NYUS track personal records?
Yes. It logs every set, detects PRs live, predicts your one-rep max from real lifts, and mints a personal-best card you keep — without arcade-style popups.
Can I use NYUS without any wearable at all?
Yes. A wearable adds recovery signals, but NYUS works fully from your logged training and nutrition alone.
Which AI models does NYUS use?
NYUS routes each request to the model best suited to it across three frontier models — Claude, GPT and Gemini — so the coaching is sharper than any single-model app.
How is the AI coach different from a chatbot?
The coach has your logged context — training, macros, recovery — so it answers about your week specifically, in seconds, rather than giving generic replies.
Is my health data private?
Yes. Your data is never sold, never used for ads, and never trains our models. It’s encrypted (AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit), stored in India (Mumbai region), and compliant with GDPR and India’s DPDP Act 2023.
What data does NYUS read from my watch?
With your per-permission consent: steps, calories burned, weight, heart rate, exercise and sleep. Each permission is opt-in and revocable anytime.
How do I delete my account?
In-app, or via nyus.in/account-deletion. Deleting removes your data; there’s no lock-in.
Is there an iPhone version?
NYUS is on Android today. An iOS version is coming soon.
How is NYUS different from MyFitnessPal, HealthifyMe, or a human coach?
NYUS combines what those do separately: it adapts your whole plan every 7 days (a tracker doesn’t), tracks 800+ Indian foods accurately, works with any Android wearable (no dedicated device), and routes coaching across three AI models — free, with no ads or data sold.
Will it always be free?
The core app is free with no ads. If paid features are ever added, they’ll be clearly disclosed before any charge.
