FAQ
Can I edit the built-in food list?
Not inside the app today. The list ships with the app and updates when you install a new version.
Does LunchMix replace allergy or medical advice?
No. It's an idea helper. Always confirm ingredients, labels, and cross-contact for allergies and dietary rules.
Where is my data stored?
Favorites and your weekly plan are saved on your device. They are not sent to our servers.
Why do repeats appear?
Random picks can repeat, especially with a narrow style or small pool for that tag.
What if lunch ideas don't load?
Try reinstalling the app from the App Store. If the problem persists, contact support with your iOS version and device model.
