### 1/5 — Can’t create an account

*2026-04-18, version 4.0.0*

Tried sooooo many times to create an account. It never sends me an a verification email so I can’t even create an account, let alone use it. I did everything that was suggested on Google to no avail. Sent an email about it and no response as of yet. My device gets turned on in a few days so I’m not sure what to do.

### 1/5 — Confused and stupid

*2026-04-15, version 4.0.0*

The app continually gets hung up on an incomplete profile, information that is not required to function.  In addition, the app does not not update when the timeout expires but rather seems to require the user to explicitly disable the implant.  Even when the timeout has turned the implant off.  Silly.

### 2/5 — Not what I expected

*2026-03-31, version 4.0.0*

It took years and jumping through hoops to be let down.   The equipment may work but nothing like I was told and the app only seams like a tool to access your phone data.  It offers the user very little if anything. You have no control without seeing a doctor and the only thing you get for info is how long and what day it was used. If something is not like you want or need you may have to wait for months to change it waiting for an appointment with a specialist. It should be controlled by the user not set up to be only a money maker by the company.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-03-30, version 4.0.0*

The app won’t upload my remote data at all. Tried deleting and reinstalling several times. Nothing. Horrid considering my ibs paid over $90k for the device and surgery. Glad there isn’t a compliance factor tied to it because despite my using. It nightly my app says I have not used it at all. The Developers need to fix this since so many people rely on the data. If Fitbit can do it why can’t you?

### 2/5 — Really poorly done

*2026-03-10, version 4.0.0*

Just logging in as a real hassle! I used my saved password which used to be correct, and now the app won’t let me in. So I tried to reset my password, and first it emails me a six digit code which goes to spam. After I find that and enter the code, then I get texted yet another six digit code!  And of course, both of these codes, bring up the little tiny full keyboard instead of just the big keyboard with only zero through nine on it. So it’s harder for me to enter the codes correctly.  And after all that, when I let my phone auto generate a strong password for me, the app will not accept it!  It does meet all the criteria listed in the app, but for some reason, it’s not good enough for this app.  There shouldn’t even be a need for an Uber strong password for this app! If somebody hacks into it and sees that I slept for six hours last night, are they going to use that to steal my identity?  You guys should test these apps on real patients, instead of just having nitwit engineers think they know everything.

### 1/5 — No metrics

*2026-03-06, version 4.0.0*

App doesn’t show any details of its use during sleep except how long it was active. 
It should show the metrics and also share data with Apple Health.

### 1/5 — Ridiculously terrible

*2026-03-04, version 4.0.0*

Inspire cost my insurance company $192,000. It’s astounding that such an expensive device could have such a ridiculous app. Do better!!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-02-25, version 4.0.0*

It won’t upload any of my data. I’ve been trying for a week and it just acts like it’s uploading my data but then it doesn’t. What’s the point of the app? I like to see how I’m doing but this app is basically a brick that gives me zero information pertaining to my sleep. You would think with the millions of dollars they are making from implanting the device they could spend a few bucks to actually make an app that works.

### 1/5 — No connectivity and misleading data

*2026-02-25, version 4.0.0*

The app and my remote lose connectivity frequently.  Also the data reports a sleep hours but that’s misleading.  It’s just reporting how long the device is on. Not actual time asleep.

### 1/5 — Horrible App Decent Device

*2026-02-20, version 4.0.0*

Obviously the 1983 attempt at an app was an afterthought, so the CEO hired his brother who lives in their parents’ basement who said “I can code that”- YOU’RE HIRED! Hopefully my drs get my settings figured out (YOU WILL HAVE A FOREVER SCAR UNDER YOUR CHIN!!), but this app gives no ‘interesting’ data or insight into the quality of your sleep. Oh, and you have to repair/reset/reinstall every 2-3 months.
