Progress you can see
Unlock your ascension path
Mystery milestones unlock on day 3, 7, 14 and 30 of your streak, and the next one stays blurred until you earn it. Each week, a see-through overlay of last week's photo helps you match the same pose and light, then a slider compares your first scan with your latest.

FAQ
Questions
Does Ascend Glow rate how attractive I am?
No. Instead of a 1–10 score, you get the changes that will make the biggest difference for you and a plan to make them. The only score in the app is your Glow Score, which tracks how consistently you follow your plan.
Can I try it now?
Yes. The beta runs in your phone's browser: open it and tap "Add to Home Screen" to use it like an app. The App Store version is on the way.
How do the ranks work?
Each quest earns XP. Climb from Bronze through Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond and Ascendant, each with three divisions, up to Glow God.
Is it on Android?
The beta works in any phone browser, Android included. Native apps start with iPhone, then Android.
Is this medical advice?
No. Ascend Glow gives general self-improvement guidance. Talk to a doctor or dermatologist about medical concerns, before starting a new diet or training program, or before using new skincare treatments.
Where do my photos go?
Your face scans and progress photos stay on your phone. They're never uploaded, sold or used to train AI, and you can delete them in one tap. The one exception is meal photos: when you tap Analyze, a smaller copy is sent to our AI to estimate the protein and calories, and it isn't stored.
How much does it cost?
Everything is free during the beta. At launch, the face scan, your top 3 levers and your starter kit are free. The full plan is $39.99/year with a 3-day free trial, or $4.99/week.
