Great sleep tool

Absoutely love this app and product, really helps me focus on my sleep and optimize it!

Will not pair

After numerous attempts, uninstall, reinstall of app I’m unable to pair the app with the glasses. Then when I try to use in standalone mode, it asked me for an activation key, which is nowhere to be found. When I click on support within the app, it wants me to setup a mail account on my phone. All Bluetooth access and tracking turned on as well. Tried to create an account prior to pairing too, but we need to pair first. What am I missing? This should not be this hard!

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're truly sorry for the frustration. This is absolutely not the experience we want for our customers. The pairing issue, activation key prompt, and in-app support redirect are all things our team can help you resolve directly. Please reach out to us at info@goayo.com so we can walk you through the setup step by step. We'd love the chance to make this right and get you up and running. 🙏 We look forward to hearing back from you. Kind regards, AYO Team

Recommendations make no sense, bugs

App is somewhat buggy. Constantly asking for your Rhythm inputs, but keeps asking even after you do it. Then says you’re below average without saying why or how to improve it. Overall very unhelpful app.

Response from developer

Thank you for your honest feedback. We truly appreciate it! We're sorry to hear you experienced issues with the Rhythm inputs. This isn't the experience we want for you, and we'd love to help resolve it. Please reach out to us at info@goayo.com and we'll be happy to assist. Regarding your circadian alignment score, we completely understand the confusion. The recommendations you receive in the app around AYO light therapy, meal timing, exercise timing, and more, are all specifically designed to help improve that score over time. We'll take your feedback on board to make this clearer within the app itself. Thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts. We hope to hear from you at info@goayo.com so we can turn this experience around! Kind regards, AYO team

Worthless

AYO glasses have been good so far, but this app is worthless. It may look nice, but it’s providing me no value whatsoever. Even the basic questionnaire is so poor that it doesn’t distinguish between my natural circadian rhythm and the schedule I’m trying to be on.

Response from developer

Hi there, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad to hear you're enjoying the AYO glasses, but we're truly sorry to learn that the app hasn't met your expectations. Your input is incredibly valuable, and we’re continuously working to improve the experience for our customers. We’d love the opportunity to better understand your needs and help you get the most out of both the app and your AYO device. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at info@goayo.com. Our team is here and happy to assist you. Warm regards, The AYO Team

App is Useless for travelling / jet lag

If you are looking for jet lag use, look elsewhere. There’s “Social Jet lag” marketing.
All fluff. Zero utility. Looks good though.

Response from developer

Hello and thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry to hear the app didn’t meet your expectations for jet lag support. While the app is currently focused on supporting circadian health and controlling the device so you can customize the intensity, session duration and other parameters, it doesn’t yet include a dedicated feature for traditional jet lag. That said, we do offer personalized guidance for jet lag relief to any customer who reaches out. Just contact us at support@goayo.com and we’ll be happy to assist you. We appreciate your input and hope to better support your needs in the future!

Great App

Love the glasses and the app. Just after one day I can feel the difference. I get up at 6am and in the winter the sun doesn’t come up until 830am and it’s too cool to be outside. This is a game changer!!! Can’t wait until they add the functionality for travel.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your feedback! We’re thrilled to hear you’re already feeling a difference after just one day. That’s exactly the kind of impact we hope for! Winter mornings can definitely be tough, and we’re glad AYO is helping you start your day feeling more energized. Thank you for being part of the AYO community!

Where are the improvements

This app was always sold on its potential, that they were going to make it great and those of us who bought in were led to believe there were significant improvements that would enhance the functionality of the AYO glasses and enable dialing in personal chronobiology. The reality is entirely different. This app goes nowhere. Either the company is about to collapse and they don’t have money to build what they promised or they’re the most dysfunctional app developers in existence. Either way, there is real dysfunction going on here that should give prospective customers pause about buying in.

UPDATE 06/2025: they announced a major update with a lot of fanfare only to bury in the fine print that the useful stuff wasn’t there and is coming later. This company and their app dev effort is a train wreck. Where’s the independent red light sessions or the Apple health integration? Kind of basics. Just not there. If you buy in to this mess, just expect a frustrating experience.

Nonfunctional outside of glasses

The app is a waste. Completely not worth the exorbitant fee that the app costs. Seems like a complete money grab. The glasses work well, but they could have implemented the app functionality into the glasses themselves. They just wanted to charge you extra for a useless app. It’s genuinely embarrassing for the company.

Waste of Money, subpar app & crazy expensive

I’ve been using the AYO glasses for a week and they have been a game changer. My morning routine has been so much more consistent. I feel like I have so much more energy and find it’s easier to get going in the morning. The app on the other hand doesn’t really have any purpose. I find tracking my circadian rhythm to be much easier on many different apps that cost less and or free. I’m hoping that in the future they do something that adds value since I spent an extra $100 for the lifetime membership. Anyone looking into if the app is worth the extra money my answer would be a clear no. AYO has a lot of work to do and needs to do a much better job at clearly explained what functionality people are getting by purchasing a membership. For my I will continue to use AUTOSLEEP tracker which cost a few dollars for a lifetime.

Wow. What a terrible app/interface

It hides the keyboard from you, doesn’t respond to input, and makes it impossible to get out of certain screens.

Response from developer

We're very sorry to hear about the issues you're facing with the keyboard and screen navigation. Our team is constantly working to improve the user experience, and your input is invaluable. As we are committed to make the app better, we would kindly request that you contact us at support@goayo.com so we can better understand the problem and provide you with a prompt solution. Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you! Kind regards, AYO team

Much better

I decided to rewrite my previous review as it was not fair to leave my very critical one up.

I am very happy to see this company moving in the right direction, I repurchased the device since they upgraded it to include Bluetooth, and I was very excited to see that they had included a new red light therapy feature. It is well documented that red light recharges cellular mitochondria and studies have indicated that it can confer healing and preservation benefits for sight. Such an upgrade will be very attractive to people who invest in their health, biohacking enthusiasts etc.

I’m also very happy to see that there will be integration with Apple health though it does not appear to be implemented yet. There is so much potential here so I will keep paying attention to any new developments that occur.

Pretty awesome

AYO app looks great, it is very user friendly, and has some unique features that help you learn a lot about your circadian rhythm. Most importantly, it helped me tremendously to improve my sleep, energy levels and overal health and mood.

I sleep better with it

Great looking app, with some amazing features. It helps you get in sync with your natural circadian rhythm by using your own biology and light. I’ve been using it for a while now, and can say with absolute cerainty it helped me sleep better during the night and be more energetic during the day. Amazing app!

Pretty awesome

Amazing app, especially when paired with the AYO wearable. It looks great, is very user friendly, and has some unique features that help you learn a lot about your circadian rhythm. Most importantly, it helped me tremendously to improve my sleep, energy levels and overal health and mood.

Something different

AYO app is beautifully designed and easy to follow. It provides you with the insights into your circadian health, and the guidance on how to improve it, or better said, how to be more in sync with your circadian rhythm. It is not fully developed yet, which is noticable by the lack of some important features, such as the integration with the Apple Health, but it gives you some unique insights nevertheless, such as your Chronotype and Circadian Health Score. The team behind the app is updating it on a weekly basis, and promises to deliver the integration by the end of the year, which should really move this app to the next level. For the best results, you should use the app together with the AYO wearable. Overally, nice looking, interesting app, with some really valuable insights and guidance that can help you improve your sleep and health, and with a lot of great potential yet to be fully reached.

It REALLY works for me!

Using AYO for 3 weeks now and I am very happy with the results! App is a great addition to the wearable as it provides useful insights like body natural rhythm and Chronotype. Also discreet reminders and personalized timings for things like light exposure, food, exercise and most importantly when to use the AYO device. App still requires polish, though I give it 5 stars to reward the team for doing something so innovative and different. Overall I am very happy as it’s improving my sleep and energy in a BIG way!

Ps: Their customer support is fantastic

Beautiful app with lots of potential!

I have been using AYO for nearly two weeks. The device is well-designed, comfortable and delivers on the promise of helping the user adjust and maintain circadian health. The parent app is beautifully designed and offers valuable insights regarding when and how to use AYO. There are a few minor synchronization bugs to be worked out, and the designer is highly responsive and aware of the issues. AYO has plans to add a travel feature and Apple Health linking capacity by next year, features that will make the app exceptional.
I enjoy this app and have high hopes for its future upgrades!
