### 3/5 — Brook

*2022-09-09*

It’s hard to follow

### 2/5 — Just ok

*2017-10-18*

The imagery feels a little bit childlike, and features are just ok. There’s alotta manual entry required.

### 4/5 — Just the app I was looking for!

*2017-02-23, version 1.3.3*

So far I am loving this app! It tracks my sleep and steps and I can enter my diabetes stuff like blood sugar and meds. Plus a wellness coach answers any of my health questions!

### 4/5 — Cool concept

*2017-02-23, version 1.3.3*

Lots of chat bots out there for silly things like ordering pizza and checking the weather. SUPER cool to see one focused on something that's actually impactful: keeping people healthy!

*2022-12-21*

It looks like it’s collecting data, but the app is frozen and tapping on icons in buttons does nothing.

### 1/5 — Freezes

*2022-12-10*

While I love the idea of the scale and blood pressure cuff sending the information right to my doctor, the app freezes on my constantly and I have to uninstall it, re-download . Once I sign back in it works for 3 screens and freezes again.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2022-09-18*

App always freezes. Deleted, reinstalled, wiped phone, etc. no matter what the app instantly freezes when opened.

### 1/5 — Chat Bot Central

*2020-11-10*

Literally anything you do on the app and you get bombarded with generic googled responses from a chat bot. I have the ability to look things up. I don’t need a bot being rude.
