### 2/5 — Such a shame

*2026-07-13, version 12.8*

I would really like to use this  but the development on it has stopped and no sign anything is being looked at any more.

### 3/5 — Good app with potential to be great

*2025-09-03, version 12.8*

I do believe this app has great potential and while it’s  stress trending is what caught my eye it defeats the purpose for me in afraid. I don’t want to have to keep switching between the mindfulness app and your app, if you can in your next update make the stress trending update in real life it will be a game changer for me as I need to know how to manage my stress and keep it down, secondly the interface is bland and boring and I know you don’t want to be like every other HRV app but it needs something but overall well done an I’m excited to see what you do with it.

### 1/5 — Can’t use this app

*2024-12-30*

Takes me to subscription options and won’t let me go back

**Developer response:** Please try killing the app from memory and reopen. There is a bug with the timeline button which is being fixed in next update

### 3/5 — Lots of features require the premium package

*2024-12-25*

good mechanics to monitor stress but most of them require the premium subscription.

### 2/5 — Calibration stopped working

*2024-11-16*

I have the latest OS and currently subscribe to the app, but the calibration function has stopped working. The button is blacked out. Hopefully this will be resolved in the next update. This is happening on all my devices: iPhone, watch OS , and MacBook Air, where I see the function available.

**Developer response:** it should work in the stressface watch app settings scroll to last page on the right in watch app and at bottom is calibrate button. Please email support for more help - dclabsapps@outlook.com

### 1/5 — Useless without expensive subscription

*2024-03-05*

Compute is on device, no external server needed. Monthly subscription is ridiculous model Hard Pass.

### 3/5 — Like it so far, but not in love

*2024-01-29*

Is there a way to get a notification when my stress level reaches a certain threshold?

**Developer response:** yes, in the last page of watch app you can turn on notifications above a threshold (make sure you enabled motifs for the app in apple settings app too). any other ideas please give feedback at dclabsapps@outlook.com

### 1/5 — Only just installed and prompted immediately

*2023-11-11, version 10.1*

Stop doing this, stop promoting people to review your apps without using them

### 5/5 — Stress face

*2023-10-28, version 10.1*

I’m not really impressed as I can be super stressed and it does not work , it will always stay on 1 even when refreshed.
If it don’t work it’s pointless to me and I’m just paying you for nothing.

### 2/5 — Like look but not sure it works

*2023-10-22*

I really like how this app looks on the Apple Watch. But I also have an oura ring. I got this app before oura came out with a stress reading. Today in the afternoon I worked and I also had downtime. The oura ring Showed how the stress level went up and how it dropped. This app showed no change the entire afternoon. So I’m giving up on the app.

**Developer response:** It sounds like the watch hadn't generated enough HRV readings to update the app. You can manually update the HRV readings when this happens if its not to late to try a bit more?
