Aim for a set number of servings a day (five is the classic goal) and add one to each meal and snack. In DailyWall, tap + → Set up a habit → Health → Eat fruit & veggies and set How many servings a day? (1–10, 5 by default). The paper stays on your wall and Lock Screen all day, and each tap fills one dot.
Most people know they should eat more fruit and vegetables. The gap isn't knowledge; it's that a busy day passes and the vegetables never happen. Counting servings closes that gap, because "two more today" is something you can act on at dinner. This page covers what a serving looks like, easy ways to fit more into meals you already eat, and how DailyWall puts an "Eat fruit & veggies" paper on your iPhone Lock Screen that fills one dot for each serving.
Why five, and what counts as a serving
The World Health Organization recommends at least 400 g of fruit and vegetables a day, which many countries turn into a simple "5 a day" message: five servings of about 80 g each. Guidelines differ a little between countries, so treat five as a friendly target rather than a rule.
A serving is roughly a handful: one apple, banana or orange; two small fruits like plums or kiwis; a big handful of salad; three heaped tablespoons of cooked vegetables or beans; a small glass of juice (usually counted only once a day). Potatoes are generally not counted in 5-a-day guidance.

Easy ways to add a serving
Tick the steps as you go

Set up your fruit and veg habit in DailyWall
The paper comes with its own washi tapes (apples, carrots and peas; citrus slices; garden vegetables) and stickers (a shiny red apple, a smiling carrot, a basket of fruit and vegetables), used only on this habit.

Dots that fill as the day goes
Because your DailyWall wall is your Lock Screen wallpaper, the paper sits under the clock with one dot per serving. Had an apple? Open DailyWall and tap + on the paper; one dot fills. Seeing 3/5 in the afternoon is a gentle reminder to put two vegetables on the dinner plate.
It pairs naturally with drinking enough water and a sugar-free day, and you can keep your shopping list next to it on the same wall.
Not every day will be a five
Travel days, takeaway nights and busy weeks happen. DailyWall keeps no streak: a day with two servings simply stays faded at 2/5 and tomorrow starts at zero again. There's no catching up to do.
If five feels far away, set the goal to three for now. A target you hit most days builds the habit; once three is easy, raise it.
