Gyroscope

Cool app to consolidate bio data sources.

Why is the cost $30 USD/month? I haven’t even started the app after setting up the app. I would try out this app, but it is way under my budget.

the app started to work, i tried to upload a picture of a banana, then add it to today. it worked, tried to add it again, no rainbow wheel, but it just kept processing. the app is showing duplicates for any photo thats in my library. I saw there was an update, before i updated the app, things were kind of working. I was trying two things: heart rate/VO2 max and the food. right after the update, everything started to hang and the photo import for food kept trying to process, then my phone started to get warmer. normal protocol: kill the app, re-launch uninstall re-install try again the app froze, crashed and hung on what i was trying to, upload a photo or access the fitness option and try the VO2 max option. sorry, if there are new features, either do a beta or alpha version. im on the latest iOS, I want to try a simple thing and then tried to update, nothing works. its a cool and informative concept, but its just going to frustrate and annoy me to try and find a work-around trying to track and eval lifestyle. It exiting, if the small things worked.

Really enjoying this app. Great central hub for everything health related

I’ve been using Gyroscope for years as a centralized place for my health data. It’s most recent “AI coach” build with the animation has been a challenge to use and I’ve not signed in as actively because of it. I’d love a classic mode that isn’t overly burdened with robots & aliens telling me what to do in voice mode. I just want my data visualization

My biggest issue with Gyroscope from the very start was “where is my data”? I can accept paying a premium sub for helpful visualizations, dietary and such if it is secure and the price is reasonable. My data matters and not even the so called vault feature is security I'm confident in after my experiences. I want to have control over it – which is not something I ever felt confident in re: Gyroscope’s data storage communication and lack of transparency. I also had a concerning correspondence with some Gyroscope employee about privacy concerns (the app tracks location data and depending on privacy settings can share it with friends list or even literally anyone with an account or anyone in the whole world) and my concerns about stalking, privacy, etc on the internet were met with the most brain-dead corporate cheer response of “we have many users who don’t mind sharing their location data 🥰” Yeah no. Stay away from this app like the plague or at least keep location off and do be comfortable having questionable people access your data.

When I downloaded the app about 6 weeks ago, I was thrilled. It seemed like the perfect bang for your buck. However, the development team continues to change which features are available. When I first subscribed, the food X-RAY was available at the pro level. After a couple weeks, they decided it should be moved to the next subscription tier. When I asked why, they told me it was a glitch, even tho that was one of the main reasons I bought the app. Every week and every update leads to more features being placed behind more paywalls.

This is a very underrated and feature packed health app - after using it for a few weeks at time of writing and getting to learn all of the features, I’m surprised that I didn’t hear about it sooner! Basically this app gives you several categories of your health to focus on - sleep, body fat, mental well-being, etc. As you use the app more and it gets a better picture of your health, it’ll give you a grading based on how well you’re doing (proud to say almost all of my categories are at least an A!). Now, I could probably extrapolate all this data myself from the Health app but Gyroscope actually gives meaning to that data and gives you actionable insights to improve it and an easy way to visualize your progress. Just to end off, I’d like to say the support team is super helpful and responsive! They helped me get a more affordable plan since I’m a college student, which is super cool of them!

I’ve never written a review for an app before in my 13 years of using Apple products. This is a fantastic app, I love telling people about it so it can keep growing and adding new features.

And the interface is now confusing. It has Lots of Coaching if you need that. With Pro and the coach app added and an early user discount - it will now cost $99 a month. The pro alone costs about half that, which is still far too expensive. The AI though is entirely optional which gets the price down to $10-$29 per month. And you can apply for financial help in certain conditions. The data overall is excellent. The interface has become more complex however. Sleep, travel, location, Nutrition and a variety of other data are displayed and graphed. I still use apple health for certain things. But there are many good choices here.
