Aevia Revive — Support & FAQ

Need help with Aevia Revive? You're in the right place. If your question isn't answered below, please reach out at support@wtheory.com.

Account & Data Privacy

Where is my data stored?

Aevia Revive was built with a privacy-first, on-device architecture. Your meal logs, nutrient records, and all profile data are stored entirely on your device. If you have iCloud Backup enabled, your data is synced to your personal Apple CloudKit account. We do not have access to your health or nutrition data.

Does the app send any data to external servers?

No. All nutrient calculations, phyto-class analysis, pattern generation, and allergen detection run locally on your device using offline databases. Nothing about your diet, eating schedule, or household profiles is transmitted to our servers.

How do I delete my account?

Navigate to Settings > Account > Delete Account. This revokes your Sign in with Apple credential and permanently wipes all local data, including every household profile stored on the device. Because your logs are not held on our servers, the deletion is immediate and complete.

Logging & Nutrition Data

Where does the nutritional data come from?

Aevia Revive uses a curated offline database built from several authoritative sources:

  • USDA FoodData Central: The primary reference for whole foods, ingredients, and macro and micronutrient values.
  • FDA Daily Values: Used for all percentage-of-DV calculations displayed in the app.
  • NIH Office of Dietary Supplements and published literature: Referenced for phyto-class classification and nutrient priority tiers.
What are the three logging modes?

Aevia Revive offers three distinct ways to record a meal, each suited to a different situation:

  • Plate mode is for whole, recognizable ingredients. Browse a visual catalog organized by food category — Bases and Grains, Vegetables, Fruits, Proteins, Plant-Based and Phyto-Proteins, Fats and Toppings, and Drinks. Select each component and enter the gram weight you consumed. The app generates the full nutrient and phyto-class profile immediately.
  • Food Label mode is for packaged products. Enter the nutrition facts panel values exactly as printed on the label, then enter your actual portion in grams or millilitres. The app scales every listed nutrient — including the full vitamin and mineral breakdown — to your actual intake. This is the right mode for nutrition bars, fortified foods, and any item with a printed nutrition facts panel.
  • Photo mode saves a timestamped snapshot to your calendar for visual reference. Photo entries appear in your logging history but do not contribute to nutrient or phyto-class totals.
Can I log packaged foods or nutrition bars?

Yes. Use Food Label mode. Enter the calories, fat, saturated fat, trans fat, carbohydrates, fibre, sugars, protein, cholesterol, sodium, potassium, and any vitamins or minerals listed on the package. Input your actual portion size in grams or millilitres, and the app calculates every value proportionally. This works for any product with a standard nutrition facts panel.

Can I log a food that isn't in the catalog?

If an ingredient does not appear in the Plate mode catalog, you have two options. For a whole food, try searching by its most common name — many ingredients appear under alternate terms. For any packaged product, Food Label mode accepts the nutrition facts panel directly, so you can log it precisely regardless of whether it is in the catalog.

Why does a nutrient show as "Unavailable" for a logged ingredient?

Some whole foods have incomplete entries in available reference databases for specific micronutrients. When the app cannot produce a reliable value, it displays "Unavailable" rather than estimating. The total for that nutrient across your day will reflect only the entries where a verified value exists.

Smoothie Builder

What is the Smoothie Builder?

The Smoothie Builder is a dedicated feature for assembling blends from whole, fresh ingredients. It gives you a searchable library of fruits, vegetables, seeds, and functional foods, along with two filter systems designed specifically for intentional ingredient selection. When you finalize a blend, the app computes the complete nutrient and molecular profile for everything in the glass. Smoothie entries contribute fully to your daily nutrient and phyto-class totals.

What are the health-context filters?

Health-context filters surface or suppress ingredients based on specific dietary considerations. The available filters are Antioxidant Boost, Skin Support, Cellular Defense, Oxalate, Phytic Acid, Dietary Nitrates, and Goitrogens. You can activate one or several simultaneously. For example, enabling the Oxalate filter highlights ingredients that are high in oxalates — useful if you are managing kidney stone risk or following a low-oxalate protocol.

What does the color sidebar in the Smoothie Builder mean?

The phyto-class color sidebar organizes every ingredient by its dominant polyphenol family. There are thirteen categories: Anthocyanins, Lycopene, Carotenoids, Quercetin and Flavonols, Glucosinolates, Chlorophyll and Polyphenols, Organosulfur Compounds, Curcuminoids, Omega-3 and Lignans, Ellagitannins, Catechins and Flavanols, Beta-Glucans, and Probiotic Cultures. Tapping a color class filters the ingredient library to show only items from that family. This makes it straightforward to build a blend that deliberately covers several phyto classes at once.

Do Smoothie Builder entries count toward my daily totals?

Yes. Every smoothie you build and save is logged to your calendar and contributes to your daily calorie, macro, micronutrient, and phyto-class totals exactly the same as a Plate mode meal entry.

Allergen Scanner & Warnings

How does the Allergen Scanner work?

The Allergen Scanner uses deterministic text-matching against the FDA Big-9 allergens: milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, and sesame. When a logged ingredient matches a known allergen, the app surfaces a visible warning in the relevant meal record.

Is the Allergen Scanner 100% accurate?

No. The scanner is a supportive reference tool, not a medical or safety device. It checks the names of foods in your logged records against a known allergen list. It cannot detect cross-contamination, mislabeled products, or unlisted trace ingredients in processed foods. If you have a diagnosed allergy or severe sensitivity, always verify the safety of every food independently before consuming it.

Insights, Patterns & Export

What does the Patterns view show?

Patterns computes plain-language observations from your logged data across any time window you select — Today, Week, Month, Year, or a custom range. It identifies facts like which ingredient supplies the highest concentration of a given vitamin, how your potassium-to-sodium ratio compares to reference targets, how many of the five phyto-class color families appeared in your diet, and how each micronutrient tracks against its FDA Daily Value. Every observation is presented alongside its source reference, whether USDA, FDA, NIH ODS, or published scientific literature.

What is the Phyto Spectrum?

The Phyto Spectrum maps your diet across five polyphenol color families: Red (lycopene and ellagitannins), Orange and Yellow (carotenoids and flavonols), Green (glucosinolates and chlorophyll), Blue and Purple (anthocyanins), and White and Tan (organosulfurs, catechins, beta-glucans, and select minerals). Covering all five families within a given time window is tracked as a polyphenol diversity benchmark, reflecting a range of plant-based compounds in the diet.

What is the Intake Map?

The Intake Map is a proportional treemap that visualizes everything you ate in the selected time window. Each tile represents a food, with its size corresponding to the gram weight you consumed. You can switch between coloring the tiles by phyto class or by food category. You can also resize tiles by total energy (calories) or by the number of times that food appeared in your logs, giving you a quick visual sense of what dominates your diet in different dimensions.

Can I export my nutrition data?

Yes. The Export function generates a PDF that includes your full macro and micronutrient totals with FDA Daily Value percentages, the phyto-color spectrum breakdown, your most-consumed foods, and a 14-day daily intake summary. You can share this directly from the app with a registered dietitian, physician, or into any app that accepts PDF files.

Does Aevia Revive provide medical advice?

No. All nutrient readouts, phyto-class analysis, Patterns observations, and Nutrient Priority tiers are provided for educational reference only. They are not a substitute for advice from a physician or registered dietitian. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before making significant dietary changes or beginning a fasting protocol.

Aevia Chronos & Aevia Circadia

What is Aevia Chronos?

Aevia Chronos is a fasting timer built into the Notifications tab. It counts the elapsed time since your last logged meal. You can set a target fasting window — 12, 14, 16, or 18 hours, or a fully custom duration — and the app sends a notification when that window is reached. Use the Mark Last Meal button to anchor the timer to your most recent entry, or tap Reset to start fresh at any point.

The app displays a health notice within this feature: intermittent fasting is not appropriate for everyone. The timer reflects only the time elapsed since your last logged intake and is not a medical assessment of any kind. If you have any medical condition or are pregnant, speak with a physician before using fasting protocols.

What is Aevia Circadia?

Aevia Circadia is a sleep-aligned reminder also found in the Notifications tab. Set your intended bedtime, and the app sends an alert three hours before that time as a consistent cue to close your eating window ahead of sleep. The reminder is optional and fully adjustable.

Household Profiles

Can I track nutrition for other members of my household?

Yes. Aevia Revive includes a multi-profile household system. From the sidebar, the primary account holder can add separate profiles for children, parents, a partner, or even a pet. Every profile has a completely isolated logging history, nutrient timeline, Phyto Spectrum, and Patterns view. Switching between profiles is a single tap, and no data is shared or merged across them.

Do all profiles have access to the full feature set?

Yes. Dashboard, Meal Records, Smoothie Builder, Nutrients, Patterns, the Intake Map, and PDF export are all available for every profile you create, including household members other than the primary account holder.

Is there a limit to how many profiles I can create?

Your account comes with one primary profile. Additional household profiles can be created via the in-app subscription options, managed natively through your Apple ID settings.
