It’s genetic component makes it the best. ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2021-11-03, version 3.7.0* What a great user experience. I found this app super insightful, and easy to use. This has helped me to make lifestyle changes through the useful recommendations and the guided meditation!

It has truly helped me build healthier habits by making better informed lifestyle decisions. I love the personalised recommendations and the fact that it is very easy to use. Anyone who wants to lead a better quality life should use Syd and spread the message to their colleagues, friends and family members. ### 5/5 — Everything I need all in one place *2021-06-18, version 2.9.1* I LOVE having a personalised app that helps me to decide what I should do each day for my physical, emotional, mental health and more. syd does so much, it means I don’t need loads of health and well-being apps taking up storage on my phone and giving me generic advice.. just one quality of life app, syd. ### 5/5 — awesome app! *2021-01-13* i love being able to monitor my progress and this app is full of great recommendations on a range of topics. really like the scheduling feature too. ### 5/5 — a virtual friend that’s full of good advice *2021-01-13, version 2.4.0* i love the fact that all the recommendations are based on current research, and that you can directly access the source. the chatbot is relatable (and tells many cute jokes). would totes recommend! ### 5/5 — SYD with IAMYIAM has improved. *2020-10-25, version 2.2.0* SYD with IAMYIAM has improved a lot in the last year as it keeps learning and listening to valuable customer feedback. Now even more advice and education to help live a healthier and better life. SYD in the App asks lots of questions regularly linked to your health priorities. Diet, sleep, exercise and supplements are all covered and you gave access to a lot more. Getting regular updates on your family or/and friends progress goals also helps keep the competitive side focused to support even faster and better results. Keep up the great work and keep focused on continuing to get even better and more helpful. Appreciate the encouragement. Best Mike ### 5/5 — Great app! *2020-09-15* I use this app to help me be more balanced, and it’s been very helpful! They have a great ai chat that is some of the best I’ve seen.

Seriously? I have never had a chance to sign up because my phone number is not excepted.

Seems like it’s only useful to sell obscure supplements and specific (can’t imagine very high quality) therapy solutions. Also can’t imagine the genetic functionality making the app that much better, but you definitely should not spend $500 on the lite version. **Developer response:** Dear Anon72737574 Thank for for sharing your opinion.

Everyone should try it. ### 5/5 — Great holistic app *2023-12-07, version 4.2.9* Love the holistic approach to life and all the research-based recommendations that feel personal and accurately tailored for me. Learning about the research behind the recommendations activities and changes is super interesting, straightforward and unique in this space. The chat and emotions tracking is also of great value and engaging. ### 5/5 — Helpful career & finance advice *2023-07-12* Started using this as a recommendation from a dear friend and was VERY skeptical !! After playing with it a couple of times - I realized it knows more than anyone I know of on finance , career , health , brain … very cool especially as a guy not so much into yoga & meditation … --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
