Noom updated its Terms of Service on April 3, 2026 to add clearer summaries and disclaimers throughout the document. The changes clarify that Noom is not medical care, require users to be 18 or older, emphasize that certain features like coaching and food data are informational only and may not be accurate, and explicitly state that Noom can suspend or revoke access at any time. The terms now make explicit what was previously less visible, but do not fundamentally alter the nature of the service or add major new restrictions.
The updated terms now explicitly state that Noom is not medical care and that users must be at least 18 years old to use the service. Features like coaching, support groups, and food tracking are now clearly labeled as informational only and may not be accurate, which clarifies limitations that may have been implied but not stated directly before. The terms also reserve Noom's right to suspend or revoke access at any time without specifying grounds or process. While these additions provide clearer disclosure of the service's nature and limitations, they do not substantively change what Noom can do—they make existing boundaries more visible.
The updated terms clarify what Noom is and is not, establishing that the service provides informational support rather than medical care and that users should not rely on it as a substitute for professional medical advice. The explicit statement that Noom can suspend access at any time and that certain features may not be accurate sets clear boundaries on what users should expect from the platform.
→ If you are under 18, you cannot legally use Noom under the updated terms; confirm your age eligibility before continuing.
→ Review the disclaimers on coaching, food data, and group features; do not treat these as medical advice—consult a healthcare provider for health decisions.
→ If you are under 18 and continue using Noom, your account may be suspended under the explicit age requirement.
→ If you treat Noom's food data, coaching, or group information as medical guidance without consulting a doctor, you may make health decisions based on inaccurate or non-clinical information.

This change record describes what was added, removed, or modified in the document. Analysis reflects what the updated agreement states or permits. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
Noom updated its Terms of Service to add summary sections and clarifying language around age eligibility, service scope, and account suspension authority. The change introduces an explicit 18+ age requirement and disclaimers that coaching, groups, and food data are informational only and may not be accurate. Noom reserves the right to suspend or revoke access at any time. From a compliance perspective, the additions clarify rather than expand obligations. The age requirement may implicate COPPA if enforcement applies to younger users; the medical care disclaimer aligns with FDA guidance on health apps; and the suspension language is standard in terms but now explicit. No novel regulatory exposure is created by these clarifications unless the company actively enforces the 18+ requirement or suspension authority in a manner that triggers additional obligations under state consumer protection laws. Organizations using Noom for employee wellness or data integration should confirm the accuracy disclaimers do not conflict with their own health claims or integrations.
FTC Act Section 5 (unfair or deceptive practices); COPPA (if users under 13 are served despite 18+ requirement); FDA guidance on health claims (to extent Noom makes clinical assertions); state consumer protection statutes (regarding service suspension and account termination practices).
