Support

We don't, although if you require nutrition support, we highly recommend seeing a dietitian in your area who can work with you one-on-one.

Thanks for your interest in joining the Pick Up Limes team! Our team is at capacity at the moment. When we're looking for new team members, we'll likely share a post about it on our social media.

For all filming and photography equipment we use, visit our photography & filming essentials shop page.

Our slogan is nourish the cells and the soul, and this really encompasses our food philosophy. While we do believe in making nutritionally balanced food choices as often as possible (to nourish the cells) we also believe in the principles of intuitive eating (to nourish the soul). Intuitive eating is the practice of listening to our inner hunger cues to dictate what and how much to eat. This helps us build trust with our bodies, and it rejects the notion of "good" and "bad" foods. We don't believe there are any guilty pleasures when it comes to food, but rather, that all food is a pleasure to eat.

Robin with the help of Sadia! For the first 4 years, we used Wix to build and host our website. It has a great visual editor and we highly recommend it for anyone starting out with their own website - it's incredibly user-friendly. At the start of 2021, we moved over to the website you're currently on, which we designed and coded ourselves from the ground up. In 2022, we started to code the Pick Up Limes mobile App. It was a labour of love and we're incredibly grateful to our beta-testers for their support along the way.

Certainly not! The Pick Up Limes tips and recipes can be enjoyed by all, regardless of dietary choices. At Pick Up Limes, we do believe in the many health, environmental, and ethical benefits of following a plant-based lifestyle, but we would never pressure it on anyone. Ultimately, this is your decision. We hope that if you do choose to include more plants in your life, that our recipes and nutrition information help you feel more confident in doing so ☺️

The Pick Up Limes mobile App is the perfect tool for your plant-based journey! We also love the book  Becoming Vegan by Vesanto Melina and Brenda Davis , both Registered Dietitians.  The book is a simple yet comprehensive resource loaded with evidence-based information. Another informative resource is the book of the medical physician, Dr. Greger.

No, we don't have a physical cookbook yet, but we're working on it. Stay tuned!

Try swapping it out👩‍🍳 Very often, we share substitution suggestions beside an ingredient if we can think of one. Simply click the green arrows next to the ingredient to reveal our suggestions. Otherwise, feel free to try making the recipe your own way. We can't guarantee that the recipe will work if deviated from our original write-up, but we're all about experimenting in the kitchen. We think it's the best way to learn and become a more confident cook! If you try any substitutions we’d also love to hear how went in the comments.

Absolutely! By visiting our recipe index page you can filter based on your allergens or intolerances. The common allergens that can be filtered out are soy, peanut, tree nut, sesame, and gluten.

You're welcome to share public recipes from the Pick Up Limes website so long as a statement is included saying that the recipe is from Pick Up Limes, with a link that directs the viewer to the recipe on our blog should they wish to learn more. We respectfully decline the sharing of exclusive recipes from the Pick Up Limes mobile app to honour the hard work our team puts into the app and the support of those who purchase the app. Note that reproduction and distribution, in whole or in part, for direct commercial gain is not permitted for any of our content, such as publishing recipes in an (e)book.

You don't need much to enjoy delicious food.  At PUL, we most commonly use our blender, food processor, garlic crusher, cutting board, and knives. We believe in keeping things simple, both in the kitchen and in life. If you'd like to learn more about our favourite appliances, watch our video on kitchen essentials . For more detail on the specific kitchen essentials and equipment we recommend, visit the  PUL shop !

We offer both monthly and yearly subscriptions, each with a free trial for new users. If you're in the US, the cost is $5.49 per month or $39.99 per year (saving you 40% yearly). We also adjust our pricing for different currencies to accommodate economic conditions. For instance, in India, the subscription is just $1.99 per month or $14.99 per year. See the subscription page within the app for the price in your region.

While the Pick Up Limes mobile app is tailored for plant-based lifestyles, it's designed so that it can be enjoyed by all. This includes an abundance of carefully crafted recipes, cook-along features, Nourish planner, nutrition information, and a grocery list generator. For those who prefer private non-plant-based items on their profile, the app allows manual item additions, and to enhance user experience there are exciting features like a barcode scanner to streamline adding personal items. We hope that if you do choose to include more plants in your life, our recipes and nutrition information help you feel more confident in doing so ☺️

Yes! The Android version of the Pick Up Limes mobile app is now live on Google Play.

The iOS version can be used on iPhone 7 or newer models that have iOS 13 installed. The Android version can be used on devices that have Android 7.0 and up installed.

The app isn't making full use of the larger iPad screens because we haven't created a dedicated landscape mode for it yet. You can still download the iPhone version of the app on your iPad though, and this version works identically well on iPad devices.

The app is only offered in English at this time.

There are over 1300 recipes in the app, including over 900 exclusive recipes that you won't find here on the Pick Up Limes website!

Absolutely, new recipes are posted every weekday! We'll also periodically release themed recipe bundles on special occasions.

Vibrations (haptic feedback) can be turned off for your entire device, i.e., for all apps simultaneously, but there is currently no way to turn off haptics in the PUL app only. On iOS, haptics feedback is turned off by going to "Settings" > Sounds & Haptics > and then toggling off "System haptics”. On Android, this is achieved by going to "Settings" > "Sound & vibration" > "Vibration & haptics" > toggle off "Use vibration & haptics".

The nutrition targets listed are in line with guidelines by the Institute of Medicine and the European Food Safety Authority following a review of the latest research, including plant-based expert recommendations. For more information, stay tuned for our e-book launch with more details 🤓 Kindly note that it’s always best to see a healthcare professional for personalized suggestions.

The nutrition information is composed using comprehensive datasets, such as the United States Department of Agriculture FoodData Central Database. The estimates are created with the utmost care, although if you have questions about a specific ingredient or recipe please contact us at support@pickuplimes.com. If you require specific nutrition information due to a medical condition, please consult with a healthcare professional, such as a dietitian or physician.

The daily Nourish goals - indicated by the colorful Nourish orbs - are determined by energy requirements which are auto-calculated based on your biometrics (weight, height, age, etc.). Our nutrition team determined the relationship between the orbs and energy requirements through a rigorous review of plant-based literature and an in-depth numerical analysis of thousands of meal plans. To override the suggestions and customize orbs to your preference, you can input custom energy requirements, or input a manual target for the orbs. You can also hide the Nourish orbs from appearing in the meal planner in "nutrition settings" if desired

Absolutely not! We believe that focusing on numbers can harm our relationship with food. Instead, our philosophy is to Nourish the Cells and the Soul. If desired, rather than tracking numbers the nourish orbs can provide a general structure to promote nutrient adequacy in plant-based lifestyles. We recognize that everyone is different, though, and to support a positive relationship with food, the Nourish Cell and nutrient information can also be hidden on the App.

Here at PUL, our goal is to aim for sustainable, long-term lifestyle choices that support our overall health and well-being. We believe that weight is just a number (that commonly changes over time!) and encourage focusing on wholesome behaviours rather than focusing on numbers. The energy recommendations provided in the app by default promote weight maintenance. We advise those hoping to lose or gain weight to work with a healthcare professional, such as a physician or dietitian, for ongoing and more personalized support. Targets provided by a healthcare professional can be inserted into the app if desired.

You can add custom items to the Pick Up Limes mobile app, or you can submit a request for adding a plant-based item to the Pick Up Limes database by contacting us at support@pickuplimes.com.

You can do so via Apple Support for iOS devices and and through the Google Play Help Centre for Android devices. If you purchased a subscription through the PUL website, please contact us at support@pickuplimes.com using the email associated with your account.

A quick solution if you’re having trouble logging in via email is to consider signing up with your Apple or Google Play ID. If you prefer email and aren’t receiving an email to log in though, your email server may be marking the Pick Up Limes mobile app login message as spam. We kindly invite you to add “noreply@pick-up-limes.firebaseapp.com" as a safe sender to your contact list and re-try logging in via email - be sure your email address is spelled correctly. Check your email, including junk or spam folders. The email should be received within a few minutes! If you're still having trouble, please connect with us at support@pickuplimes.com 💌

Some browsers or apps don't redirect the sign-in link into the PUL app based on our settings. To complete the sign-in, we recommend using a different browser such as Safari on iOS devices or Google Chrome on Android devices. On iOS press and hold the link to get multiple options for opening the link if you have different browsers installed. In Safari on iOS, the button "Open app" will appear at the top of your screen. If using Firefox on Android devices, click the three dots in the right corner > click the button that says "open in app". On Samsung Internet, try pressing the PUL logo displayed in the search bar. If this does not help. Consider signing up with your Apple ID or Google account instead. Please connect with us at support@pickuplimes.com if there's anything we can help with along the way 💌

Try setting a different browser as your default. When signing in with Google, your device uses its default browser to complete the authentication process. Google deems certain apps, such as Bing Chat, to be insecure and won't complete the authentication process due to security reasons. Using Chrome as your default browser will likely solve this issue.

Yes, you can switch from an App Store subscription to a website subscription. To do this, cancel your current subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and wait for it to expire. Once expired, you can purchase a new subscription directly through our website. Be sure to use the same login method and email associated with your account, which you can verify under "My Details" in the "Me" tab. This ensures all your profile content transfers seamlessly!

Yes, we take data security very seriously. All payments are handled through Stripe, a trusted payment platform that uses top-notch encryption to keep your information safe. We also do not store any of your payment details.

When you purchase a gift card, you'll get an email with a PDF that includes a unique access code that can be redeemed once. You can print this PDF to give a thoughtful physical gift or email it to the recipient for a convenient virtual option. The recipient can then redeem the code in the PUL App on their mobile device to activate their subscription. The subscription begins from the date they redeem it online, not the date of purchase.

No, PUL App gift cards never expire. You can redeem the code whenever you’re ready!

No, you can only redeem a gift card if you don't have an active subscription. You can redeem a gift card after your existing subscription has ended. Make sure you are logged in with the same PUL account when activating the gift card to apply it to the correct account.

To check when your subscription ends or renews, open the PUL App, go to the "Me" tab, and tap "Manage Subscription." This will redirect you to either the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, where you can manage your subscription and view its details. If you used a gift card instead, the App will tell you when your access expires. Kindly note that subscriptions from gift cards do not automatically renew.

To redeem a gift card, download the PUL App, and use a method of your choice to sign in or to create a new account. Then, on the subscription page, scroll down and press "use a gift card code" and enter your unique access code. This will grant you immediate access!

Absolutely! Treat yourself to some well-deserved deliciousness.

If you can’t locate the email with your gift card, please check your junk folder or contact our support team at support@pickuplimes.com with a copy of your proof of purchase. We’ll do our best to help you recover your code. Please note though, we cannot take responsibility for codes that are lost, stolen, or used without authorization.
