### 1/5 — Joke app, time for a cup of tea

*2025-06-29, version 5.11.0*

Get some new programmers. Pretty aweful.

### 1/5 — Vorsicht! Möglicherweise haben sie zwei Abos!

*2025-06-16, version 5.11.0*

App gekündigt und daneben angeblich noch ein Web-Abo besessen und nicht gekündigt, was man separat kündigen muss… welches Web-Abo? Zumal ich die App nach der Testphase nicht mehr genutzt habe, die Apple Watch dient meinem Zweck mehr als ausreichend.

### 2/5 — Reading not starting

*2025-06-13, version 5.11.0*

Not works

### 1/5 — Horrible Canceling System

*2025-05-29, version 5.10.1*

Please be worry of this app. If you want to cancel the subscription you can’t just cancel in from your phone like it says. You ALSO have to cancel on their web version which you can only find IN THE APP and go through the process of cancelling it there too. Don’t be like me and thinking just because I cancel in my phone like every other app I’m good. No they will KEEP CHARGING YOU FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION because you didn’t cancel on the web too.

### 1/5 — Nightmare

*2025-05-25, version 5.10.1*

This app is so hard to cancel! And keeps charging you!!

### 1/5 — SCAM!! IMMEDIATELY DELETE!!

*2025-05-22, version 5.10.1*

i got this app originally to try to monitor my health but read the reviews saying it’s a scam! every single 5 star review is FAKE! they have russian bots leaving fake reviews to drown out others warning of the scam. once you pay for a trial/subscription, you can’t cancel it and there’s no app support. DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING OR GIVE CARD INFO!! they will sell this info and use it for bad purposes!!

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-05-20, version 5.10.1*

Gotta pay for everything …

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2025-05-18, version 5.10.1*

When you cancel your subscription you have to hit cancel, put in your email, then cancel again, but you get 20 SECONDS to cancel or they’ll charge $20 anyway so yes, it’s 100% a scam for your money. Reporting

### 2/5 — Money

*2025-05-16, version 5.10.1*

download only if you want to spend money

### 1/5 — A scam

*2025-05-13, version 5.10.1*

Total scam. Everyone I know who tested my app has the same results.

### 3/5 — Milas review

*2025-04-29, version 5.10.1*

I think three stars because it is good it’s just why should l and everyone have to pay for mental health?😊

### 3/5 — This is a fun game?

### 1/5 — The application charged my credit card without my consent.

*2026-06-23, version 5.14.3*

The application charged my credit card without my consent.

### 1/5 — It’s faking everything!

*2026-05-23, version 5.13.2*

When it asked me to put my finger on the rear camera and flashlight, i instead put it on my pillow and it gave me results: 68 BPM and 100MS. I don’t think the iPhone camera even has a feature that measures that, which means it faked it. This app is probably made by a Nigerian, hoping to get people’s dementia to kick in and forget to cancel the free trials. ALWAYS read the bad reviews.

### 1/5 — This is not good

*2026-05-02, version 5.13.2*

You literally need to buy everything for it to work properly do not recommend because you need to pay money for everything and for you to how to fix it and how to fix your anxiety or depression I would recommend going to your doctor

### 1/5 — Won’t stop charging me

*2026-04-05, version 5.13.2*

I have tried every way possible to cancel this.  I have emailed dozens of times for them to stop charging me but they REFUSE TO GET BACK TO ME.    They continue to charge me $30/month regardless of how many times I ask to cancel, to stop charging me. THEY ARE CROOKS!!!!

### 1/5 — Me siento estafada

*2026-03-26, version 5.13.2*

Cuando la instale se suponía que sería una prueba de 7 días gratis y luego se pagaba la suscripción y resultó que me intentaron cobrar inmediatamente, ahora me siguen cobrando el costo como si el servicio fuera bueno que engaño. Me dicen en el comentario que cancele y eso hice el mismo día que la instale sin embargo me sigue cobrando, pongo el comentario y dice que no pueden hacer nada  uppp

### 1/5 — Misleading “free” app with no free features.

*2025-12-20, version 5.12.0*

It is getting so tiresome downloading apps that misrepresent the “in app purchase terms”. Do not bother downloading this app, it doesn’t even allow you to get the first measurement / report for unless you agree to a trial & subscription, it’s actually a gross scam and this type of unethical monetary scheme should be banned.

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2025-11-11, version 5.12.0*

I used this app regularly but it often suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason and would not give readings. I reported this recently when it stopped working for days and got no response from them at all. I am currently chasing a refund.

### 1/5 — Cobrança indevida.

*2025-10-03*

Péssima

**Developer response:** Lamentamos sua experiência! ❤️ Para cancelamentos ou cobranças, a gestão é feita nas configurações da sua conta Apple. Se a questão for precisão, nosso app usa fotopletismografia (PPG) e requer dedo firme para resultados ótimos. Queremos ajudar a esclarecer! 🩺

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2025-09-15, version 5.11.0*

### 1/5 — scammers!

*2025-08-01, version 5.11.0*
