People are praising this 'brilliant' fitness app that's helping people lose weight without having to cut calories.
The Simple Life app is a weight loss tool that helps you avoid restrictive dieting, users take a questionnaire and it builds a plan personalised to you.
The method of the app doesn't include calorie counting, cutting out essential food groups, or weighing every bite.
Irish influencer Caroline Rushe, aka @my_crazy_life_caroline posted to her 126,000 followers that she lost two stone with Simple Life.
In one of her captions she wrote: "This is how I did it. Not with extremes. Not by starting over every week.
"I just focused on small habits I could actually stick to. Staying consistent, keeping things simple, and not overthinking everything.
"I've been using the Simple app to help me stay on track - with meals, hydration, and structure throughout my day.
"That's what made the difference."
The Simple Life app will curate daily workout plans that suit you, which includes everything from yoga and pilates to HIIT and Tai Chi or simply getting out for a walk.
There's an in-app coach that can answer your questions, and give you guidance including healthy recipe and snack ideas, and workout suggestions.
One said: "I struggled to lose the last few kgs post my pregnancy and I've started using this app - it really helped me shake off what I needed."
"It keeps track of water intake which is brilliant for me!".
Another wrote: "I've been using Simple for a few weeks now and loving it. I've lost 21lbs in that time without ever having to weigh food. I'm back running and also really enjoying the pilates and yoga to help strengthen my core and improve my flexibility."
While a third said: "I've lost half a stone in two weeks when all year I couldn't stick to a diet. It counts down your fast, rates your meals, tracks your weight. It doesn't count calories (that part is up to you if you want to count them).
"It has helped keep me motivated and accountable. I can't recommend it enough."
You can currently save 80% off the Simple weight loss plans when you use the code SIMPLEDEAL on the app.
