Not much to see without paying
I pay for a lot of services and don't mind paying for another but there's really no way to tell what Gyroscope can tell me that my Fitbit app can't. The free version certainly doesn't tell me anything different. The barrier to entry to pro level is quite steep.
The interface is really nice, mostly.
Indeed, first impression is it looks great. But it's hard to really get perspective on your day when there are tiny little icons and unidentifiable symbols. Simply put, I don't understand what's going on, and I'm a pretty young tech nerd.
Mobile app design seems whimsical. Too much effort to get colors right, not enough attention to practical use and experience.
The second issue is I'm not super hot on their app integrations.
Moves is not a good app unless you're moving around with an iPhone connected to a power source -- that app takes way too much power and data.
Also it'd be nice if they didn't wed to RescueTime. For an app that clearly cares about how things look, Gyroscope can do better. I've tried Rescue Time multiple times and always quit within a day or two -- ironically, unlike Gyroscope, setting up and using Rescue Time takes way too much time and the reward is a clunky interface.

Always improving
The team at Gyroscope are always improving the app to give us more and more insights from the Health app and other connected services. The pro subscription is definitely worth the $'s.
Amazing
One of my favourite apps. Helps me reach goals, change habits, and keep my life moving in the way I want. Highly recommend the pro version for the extended reports! HealthKit sync = awesome!
Best app on my phone
So pleased I got on board with this app. It's simple. Sits away sucking up data from various sources and gives me a simple and detailed view of my progress and productivity.
I'm a full time carer but as a software engineer with let's say some years experience behind me I've recently been trying to improve my health by giving up smoking, drinking and learning boxing, BJJ, Muay Thai, some MMA and kettlebell workouts to try and undo years of sedentary coding I really appreciate the attention to detail in this app.
It's as simple or advanced as you want.
Also the upgrades come fast based on feedback and bugs I've reported so the user experience is key and it shows
Yeah nice. Keep it up 👌

My Personal Dashboard
Gyroscope is a simple, beautiful interface that helps me quantify my health -- without the hassle of manually entering in data. I'm not a health nut by any means... but over the past several weeks, i've noticed that checking Gyroscope is quickly becoming a daily habit of mine. As a result, I'm taking more steps, monitoring my heart rate, and am more mindful of how much sleep I get. The app does a great job of simplifying the key variables that are important for your health, and making it easy to spot any anomolies. Some aspects of the product still needs some work (a broader set of integrations, better onboarding experience, etc.) but i'm sure that'll improve with time. For now, definitely worth trying out.

Exceptional app
Amazing design, lots of features, lots of integrations with major apps. And all on even the free version.
I have to admit I'm still using the free version. But I'm thoroughly convinced to upgrade to Pro!
Excellent apps like this aren't just for fun. Particularly this app is huge on health and productivity tracking makes me, personally, more inclined to increase my fitness actives and with RescueTime integration, focus more on work and less slacking! Win-win!
