### 4/5 — Needs better games

*2026-08-01, version 8.1.3*

Great piece of hardware. Grip strength assessment seems to correlate well with standard dynamometer though pinch estimates are way off. Still the pinch strength measurements can be useful when kept consistent with the squegg. Good isometric strengthening protocols. Unfortunately only one of the few games is any kind of fun and that one isn’t much of a strength challenge. Very useful tool if you’re looking to track and improve your strength and you don’t mind rote exercise programs

### 5/5 — Love this Squegg

*2026-07-20, version 8.1.3*

I recommend the Squegg to anyone who has high blood pressure.  It has helped bring mine down to normal.  I just wish the price hadn’t jumped up!

### 5/5 — Who knew?

*2025-12-09, version 7.0.0*

Who knew such a small apparatus would workout my hands so well. I’m happy to use this and hope it helps my flexibility and strength.

### 1/5 — Intrusive Data Harvesting App

*2025-09-19, version 6.6.0*

App is designed to harvest unnecessary data like date of birth, name, etc.
Absolutely disgusting practices.

### 1/5 — No responde

*2025-02-11, version 4.4.0*

El huevo no responde a los juegos, creo que es una herramienta muy costosa como para que no funcione

### 2/5 — Love Lost

*2024-08-13, version 4.1.1*

I was loving using this app and device in my paediatric OT practice until the most recent update. My therapy kiddos loved the Balloon Blaster game, but the graphics and scoring totally changed and not for the better. Previously, the resistance increased with each level. Currently, there are no levels, no accrual of points and no increase in resistance. Additionally, the background music disappears once you start the game. 
On a different concern, I bought the device myself and recommended my employer purchase one for each of their clinics. My device and the first clinic device have worked great. However, the clinic device purchased more recently only worked for a month. The company readily replaced it, but the replacement device has never worked properly.

### 5/5 — Squegg

*2024-07-19, version 3.6.1*

Excelente opción de entrenamiento de manos y brazos para los sedentarios con profesión de escritorio 
Me parece formidable como se lleva a cabo los diferente ejercicios y espero ver resultados a nivel de fuerza y músculos

### 5/5 — Overall Purpose

*2024-07-11, version 3.6.1*

This app is amazing for people who struggle with grip strength and grip endurance! I highly recommend this app to occupational therapy practitioners, hand therapists, and clients across the globe. Over the course of the past few weeks of using the app, I have noticed my grip strength getting stronger and stronger. I even had my grandmother who has Parkinson’s disease use the product and she’s enjoyed playing the games while improving her strength. 5/5 excellent application!!

### 5/5 — Highly recommended

*2024-01-31*

Excellent gadget for improving grip strength. When sowing seeds in my garden, a delicate and precise task, I also noticed a real improvement in fine-work. And this was just after a few weeks. a year on, I look forward to my daily squeezing. It’s quite a Zen-like experience! Phenomenal that such an attractive, comfortable small gadget can pack so many other health benefits (eg keeping blood pressure in check). I had a few issues with Squegg recently, the team were extremely helpful in trying to sort it out. It just wish it was more easily available in the UK (particularly the mint version).

### 4/5 — Great device to develop grip strength

*2023-10-03, version 3.2.0*

The device has a quick and easy set up and is fairly user friendly and I appreciate that it includes data to support overall health such as the blood pressure reduction activity. I wonder how accurate the grip strength is however, the grip reading it gives me is about 20-25 lbs. less than the dynamometer reading, though to be fair these are two different instruments for measuring grip strength with different style handles to grips. The different games are fun but the jet pack game is a bit challenging and frustrating at times. It would be nice if there was a way to grade the activity from easy to hard and if there were levels that have a beginning and end to them. Also some more games would be good for variety. Overall, very good device and worth the price!
