Does Nothing

Bought years ago and tried to login to app to see absolutely nothing? Seems like they switched there model and now I don’t see any info which makes no sense? Since cannot even login to app cannot even see any info which app purchases which doesn’t seem to exist on the iPhone? When you go to support there is only faq. Used to like this app.

Response from developer

Hi Gene! So sorry about that, please email us at support@gyrosco.pe and we will help you get set up! If you only used the app years ago and aren’t currently using the app then you will need to set it up again but it should only take a few minutes and we can help you with the process

Declining

I started using Gyroscope a few years ago after the demise of the Moves app, hoping to use it as a simple place tracking app. They have steadily added more and more extraneous stuff to this app, constantly looking to validate higher subscription prices. All the while, it gets harder to use for the simple things, and offers no way to customize it to get the “wellness” nonsense out of the way. Please give us a few settings to reduce clutter and use just the features we choose.

Limited availability to choose sleep duration

This app is expensive. But, it’s fairly unique and tracks a lot of health data. Having said that, there is one thing that keeps me from using it more. It won’t allow you to choose any sleep goal you’d like. I’m in my late fifties and have only slept 5-6 hours per night since I was in my early twenties. If I lay in bed for more than six hours, I feel more tired not less. The app will only allow a sleep goal of 7 hours or more. IMO more customization should be allowed. Not all bodies are the same and not all people want to waste a third of their lives sleeping.

Sorry about that! We just added some new sleep target options in the latest version today so you can set your sleep amount lower if you really want to (down to 5.5 hours)

Update: It’s working

Dev helped me figure out why it wasn’t starting up. Thank You. I think its a decent app. But maybe not at the price point. I also had to turn off notifications because its really likes to be in your face with them all the time, way too many.

Oh no sorry about that, it looks like you may have skipped the first step in that list of setting up the apple health sync which will be required to unlock the next steps and finish the onboarding helper. (Without that, there won’t be correct data in the app for you to continue to the next step and work properly) Please email support@gyrosco.pe with more details of what you are seeing and we can make sure it is all working for you! Or if it is some sort of bug we will get it fixed for the next version so you can use the app successfully

Good but disappointing

When I downloaded the app about many 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 and less ways to view your data. What happened to the “history” tab? Why does everything become more difficult with each update?

Hey Nick sorry for the confusion here. You should have access to the Food XRAY feature in the app now, and we have made it available for free to all Gyroscope members a few months ago. To get started, press the + button in the You tab and then take a photo of your meal. Then you should see the calorie and protein information show up automatically. We are constantly making some adjustments to the app interface to make it more intuitive and simpler so some things may move and change, but we also try to send out email announcements and videos about how and why that is happening before so no one is surprised. Let us know anytime if you need more assistance!

Unfulfilled promise

If you’re young and healthy this will probably be OK for you. But if you’re older, have health issues, or need any kind of personalization this app will not suffice. It promises sophisticated artificial intelligence with personal recommendations, but this is more like personalized language on top of cookie cutter recommendations. I’m removing it from my phone.

A little too overpriced

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.

Hey Python7899 sorry about that! Our privacy policy means our members get the best experience but they do have to pay the costs of the service as our only source of revenue - we never show ads or sell your data for example - and the costs of operating Gyroscope are quite high with servers, the latest AI models, etc. For comparison, most other AI services charge about $20 a month like apps you may have heard of like ChatGPT or Claude. With Gyroscope AI you get all of those features (which has high costs for every request, and so youll get 150 tokens per month) plus everything else like servers to store your data, building and operating the app, etc. which are unfortunately also quite expensive! However, if you want to start out and pay less you definitely can. We have Pro as our lower priced plan that is just 10% of that, so if you have a lower budget you may want to check that out!

Too noisy & unstable

I used this app (iOS) last year & found the interface really clean & user friendly. It was a real compliment to my health & fitness.

I paused my subscription for roughly 6 months & have now returned to:

- An app that frequently crashes when opening
- An extremely noisy interface that is no longer intuitive. I appreciate that you’re trying to provide a comprehensive suite of health factors but the interface is now so busy that it is hard to know where to begin.
- There is now a constant barrage of attempts to make me upgrade. Everywhere I look is another up-sell.

All in all, it’s no longer a product I enjoy using.
