Bloodwork and texting Vora
Can I text Vora to log meals and workouts?
Yes. With Vora AI Text you can text Vora over iMessage on iPhone or RCS on Android to log meals and workouts by message, food photo, voice note or barcode number. It is free on every plan with 10 messages a day, or 100 with Vora Pro, once you link your number in the Vora app.
What you can send
| You send | What Vora does |
|---|---|
| A meal in plain words | Logs it to your food diary. |
| A food photo | Reads the food or drink in the photo and logs it. |
| A voice note | Transcribes it and handles it like a text. |
| A barcode number | Looks up the digits under the barcode and logs the food. If there is no match, Vora asks for a photo of the nutrition label. |
| A workout | Logs what you describe, such as “bench 3x8 at 185”. |
| A question | Answers from your own data, such as your sleep, recovery, weight, training or protein, and can send charts back as images. |
| UNDO | Removes the last thing Vora logged. |
| HELP, SAVE, STOP, START | HELP lists what Vora can do. SAVE sends Vora’s contact card. STOP opts your number out, and START turns replies back on. |
How to link your number
- On iPhone, open Settings in Vora and tap the Vora AI Text card. On Android, open Settings, then Connections, then Vora by text.
- Tap Connect with Messages on iPhone, or Set up Vora AI Text on Android. Your messaging app opens with LINK and a one-time code already typed. Send it as it is.
- The code works once and expires after 30 minutes. On iPhone, return to Vora and tap “I sent it. Check connection”. Android checks the code for you. Vora texts you once you are connected.
Free or Pro
Vora AI Text is included on every plan. Texting Vora uses the same daily AI allowance as chat in the app: 10 messages a day on Vora Free and 100 on Vora Pro.
When you reach the limit, Vora tells you in the thread. The allowance resets each day.
iPhone and Android
On iPhone, you text Vora in Messages and replies arrive over iMessage.
On Android, replies travel over RCS when your phone supports RCS with Vora’s number. SMS fallback is not turned on, so an Android phone that cannot use RCS with Vora’s number may not receive replies.
Limits
- You need a Vora account and the Vora app to link a number, and only messages from the number you verify reach your account.
- Vora uses Sendblue, a messaging provider, to send and receive the texts. Only send health details you are comfortable sharing by message.
- Vora’s coach gives educational health and fitness information based on your data, not a diagnosis or treatment.
