Great app! Has helped my issue with a tremor in my left hand. This was caused by a concussion from a car wreck about 20years ago

Cannot customise

Thought this would be helpful but there is no way to adjust the speed and style. Very disappointing - use the free web version instead!

Good, but needs some improvement

My vision therapist recommended this app to help with eye stretches. It’s good, but I wish I could change the direction the bars move. I have to do this exercise with a patch on because my eyes don’t track together. So I’d like it if the bars could travel left or right and up or down.
