When you first create your ClapDiet account, you'll go through a quick onboarding process. This takes about 5 minutes and helps us personalize everything for you.
The Onboarding Steps
Step 1: Your Goals
Tell us what you want to achieve:
Better energy: Optimize nutrients for daily vitality
Weight management: Track calories and macros effectively
Blood pressure control: DASH-focused recommendations
Sports performance: Hydration and electrolyte optimization
Kidney stone prevention: Oxalate and hydration tracking
General wellness: Balanced nutrition for overall health
You can select multiple goals!
Step 2: Basic Information
We'll ask for:
Your age
Biological sex (for accurate nutrient ranges)
Height and weight
Activity level
Step 3: Dietary Preferences
Choose your eating style:
Diet type (omnivore, vegetarian, vegan, etc.)
Favorite cuisines (we have 30+ options!)
Any food allergies
Religious dietary requirements
Step 4: Health Context (Optional)
For the most personalized experience:
Select any health conditions you manage
Add current medications
Note any supplements you take
Note: You can skip this step, but you'll see a warning that recommendations may be less tailored.
Step 5: Choose Your Mode
Select your primary tracking mode:
Standard: Balanced nutrition tracking
Sports Hydration: For athletes and active people
Keto/Low-Carb: Net carb and ketosis tracking
DASH: Blood pressure management
Kidney Stone Prevention: Oxalate and hydration focus
Intermittent Fasting: Fasting timer and meal windows
You can change your mode anytime!

Can I Redo Onboarding?
Onboarding runs once, and there is no reset button — but nothing it collected is
locked in. Everything the wizard asked for stays editable afterwards:
Body metrics, allergies and medications — Settings > Profile
A different diet mode — Diet Modes, then Apply this mode
More lab results — Labs > Upload lab PDF
So starting fresh is a matter of updating those, not repeating the setup.
