Good idea, poor execution
Response from developer
Hello Upstate Steve -- We'd like to apologize for your experience as well as the delay in getting back to you. Version 2.0/2.1 (2.1 with only a wording change) has seemed to work for most users, old and new. However, it apparently isn't working for you. We are not sure why -- we have tested the most recent version rigorously and it seems not to show the behavior you describe for us or anyone else who has contacted us. Also, the bluetooth heart rate monitor functionality seems to work fine as well. If the app continues to show this behavior for you, please return it for a refund. Also you can use the in-app email form to let us know directly if there are any other issues. Thank you!
Does not work
Response from developer
Hi Lisa, I'm sorry to hear that -- and also sorry that we didn't realize we could respond to app reviews, so the response is late as well. For whatever reason (sometimes low blood pressure, sometimes finger temperature) the app doesn't work for some people. I'm sorry it didn't work for you! The good thing is, if you have a Bluetooth monitor compatible with Choice Compass, you can use that instead, and it's a lot easier for most people!
It Doesn’t Work
Response from developer
Hi JillyBean42 -- This is exactly why we created version 2.0/2.1 -- we had previously calibrated the app for people, but our calibration was based on averages across the population. We realized that this was a problem for some people and would give exactly the incorrect answer. Now we have a version (2.1) that lets people calibrate their own heart rhythms. Much more effective. Having said that, it's always better to use common sense over any other decision-making method! Choice Compass is designed to support and validate your choices, not to make them. Thank you for writing your review.
Unusable

Thank you for your review, Cazimi. In version 2.0/2.1 we have improved the tutorial. I hope you can give it a try!
