A free app designed to help you improve your health and wellbeing by setting and tracking your own goals, and sharing tips and tricks with people like you.
Step 1 | Download the app
You can find the app on your smart device through the Apple AppStore or Google Play. Search ‘Best You’ in your store or simply click below.
The app works in synchronisation with the best-you.org website to help you access wider Best You features. You can log in via the app or the website and your progress will be up-to-date on both.
Step 2 | Sign in or register
Sign in with your Best You website account details. If you don’t have an account yet, simply tap the ‘create a new account’ button and follow the steps to complete the form which helps Best You personalise itself to you and then set your own password.
Check the email that you signed up with for your activation email, and tap the activation link in the email. If you can’t see the email, please check your junk and spam folders. Then just return to the app and log in with the email address and the password you created. You’ll then be able to make logging in simpler by creating your own PIN for future logins. Take a read through the introductory pages and you’re all set up!
Step 3 | Select and start a journey
