Weight loss, run like a football club

Get fit or get sacked.

Graft FC turns your food logs, workouts, weigh-ins and habits into a football club. Put the work in and your team climbs the pyramid. Stop, and the board shows you the door.

How a week works

Your graft is the transfer budget.

  1. 1

    Do the jobs

    Log meals and drinks, hit your steps, record workouts, tick your habits and weigh in.

  2. 2

    Earn coins and form

    Each job pays coins. Doing them consistently builds form, and activity from Apple Health or your Watch pays more than typing it in.

  3. 3

    Sign players

    Spend your coins in a transfer market that refreshes every Monday. The club covers a normal wage bill, so you only pay if you build a squad above your level.

  4. 4

    Kick off

    Squad strength, form and that day's activity go into every match. Win, and the board backs you. Promotion is earned.

Matchday

You can't skip to the result.

Two to four matches a week, each with a six-hour window to kick off when it suits you. Leave it too long and it starts without you. Then it plays out live for 16 minutes, and it isn't decided in advance.

  • Change tactics at any time, give the half-time team talk, and pick your spot when you win a penalty.
  • Start a workout during the match and the whole team lifts. Logging a meal or a glass of water helps too.
  • Watch the score on your lock screen, or make decisions from your wrist.
  • Miss it, and your assistant takes charge. You get a match report, and there is no replay.

Food and targets

Honest logging wins.

Set your goal and Graft FC works out starting targets for calories, protein, fat, carbs and drinks. You can change any of them.

  • Scan a barcode, search UK brands through Open Food Facts, pick from 184 everyday UK foods, most using the UK government's official food data, or type it in yourself.
  • Going over your target never costs you. The game rewards logging what you actually ate.
  • Targets only change when you accept a suggestion based on your weight trend.
  • Prefer not to see the number? Hide your weight from the dashboard.
The Log screen showing calories left, protein, fat and carbs, and meals logged for breakfast and lunch.

Training

Record it on your phone or your wrist.

Start a walk, run, ride, swim, gym session or football session from your iPhone or Apple Watch. Graft FC tracks it and saves it to Apple Health and Fitness.

  • Outdoor activities map your route with GPS, then show distance, pace and calories.
  • Connect a Bluetooth treadmill that supports the standard fitness machine protocol to record speed and distance. If your treadmill allows it, change speed and incline from your phone too.
  • A workout running on one device shows as in progress on the other.
  • Widgets for your home screen and lock screen, and complications for your Watch face, keep today's jobs in view.
The Activity screen with outdoor and indoor options including walk, run, cycle, treadmill, gym, HIIT, football and swim.

Your club

Take them up from the bottom.

Every manager starts in the bottom division. Choose your club, and the whole app takes on its colours, including your badge.

Promotion races, derbies that pay double, a season review and club honours give you something to chase beyond the scales.

The board is watching

Stop grafting and you're out.

Board confidence falls when you miss logs and lose matches, and rises with streaks and wins. You get warnings first. If you ignore them, the chairman makes the call.

It's not the end. Hit your jobs every day for a week to win your job back, or find a new club and start the climb again.

Your data

No account. No ads. No tracking.

It stays with you

You choose what connects

Apple Health, notifications, location and usage analytics are all optional. You can export your data whenever you like, and iCloud backup uses your own iCloud account.

What leaves your phone

Scanning a barcode or searching for a food sends that barcode or search to Open Food Facts. If you choose to share usage, Microsoft Clarity sees how you use the app, with your health details hidden. Read the privacy policy.
