User reviews

I am so much more comfortable with fewer hard crashes.

This app has helped me to truly understand pacing.

Before, I was in a constant state of crashes and I couldn’t seem to understand “why” and how to prevent them.

I have learned what so called simple things were making me crash. Because of the level of my severity… I simply had no idea that feeding my cat or putting laundry in the machines were depleting my precious energy so much.

Having this type of feedback allowed me to make appropriate changes that wouldn’t deplete my energy. A rolling stool In the kitchen. And having my washer raised. I never would have thought about doing this to keep me from crashing.

I love having it remind me to rest when I don’t realize I’m over doing myself.

Thank you for helping my level of severity be able to enjoy parts of life again.

Game Changer

Kick started my recovery from Long Covid - ME/CFS with all of the guides and information on pacing. Made a massive difference in finally being able to get an accurate heart diagnosis for my tachycardia and get on the correct medication. Without a doubt, this app and arm band save lives.

Highly recommend

I've been using Visible for almost 2 years and it has helped me understand my illness. I've used the original band and the 2.0 and I'm very happy with it. I find it difficult to pace but this has helped me very much.

Exhausted

I would suggest anyone who has no idea why they are so sick and exhausted to get visible. I have been and still am tired but I’m learning how to pace myself. Before I had no idea why I was so tired or when I needed to stop and just breathe. I like that it tells you you’re going to have a bad day and maybe take it easy if possible. Those days I chill out now. Before I would try to get through it and then I would crash for days. I’m getting better at pacing myself but it takes time, especially if you’re like me and you don’t know when to stop. I think that was my biggest problem , not knowing when to just relax and pace myself . I’ve only been using it for a week and I’m already learning to take care of myself better so I don’t crash as much .

Update, it stopped working and I have done everything they told me to do but just stops working only a few hours after linking it again and again. I’ve asked for customer service with no help. I asked for a replacement but I am being ignored , it only worked for 9 1/2 days and they still charge me 19.99 a month even though I have asked them to cancel and give me a refund . I should have done more research . It’s a great concept but no customer service and it looks like they don’t care if the product works or not, just so they get their money .

Free app is invaluable!

I’m a student with ME, so paying for a health subscription just wasn't ideal. I am so so grateful that Visible offers a free app, with all the trackers and tools I was looking for, with no pressure to upgrade to a paid subscription (and no ads). The stability scores are especially useful, helping me to easily communicate my health, both in education and with family/friends, helping them to understand during times when I might not be able to communicate this myself. I cannot recommend Visible enough - thank you so much to the whole team!

FAQ

What does Visible do?

Visible is designed to help individuals with energy-limiting health conditions like Long Covid, ME/CFS, and POTS to improve their pacing. It provides personalized insights based on biometric measurements and symptom logging to help users understand their body's energy levels and make informed decisions about activity and rest, aiming to reduce crashes and PEM.

What are the key features of Visible?

Key features include measuring biometrics like heart rate variability (HRV) and resting heart rate using your phone's camera, logging symptoms and daily exertion to identify patterns, and generating long-term health reports that can be shared with doctors. The app also offers an optional band for real-time pacing notifications and all-day energy budgeting.

Is Visible a free app?

The app itself is free to download and use, offering core features for tracking and insights. However, there is an optional Visible band available for purchase, which unlocks additional features like real-time notifications and all-day energy budgeting. This means the app operates on a freemium model with in-app purchases for enhanced functionality.

What conditions does Visible support?

Visible is specifically designed for individuals living with energy-limiting health conditions. This includes, but is not limited to, Long Covid, Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), and Fibromyalgia. The app focuses on helping users manage their energy and pace their activities effectively.

How can Visible help me manage my condition?

By tracking your biometrics and daily activities, Visible helps you identify patterns and understand how different choices affect your energy levels and overall well-being. This data-driven approach allows for more informed pacing, balancing activity and rest to minimize post-exertional malaise (PEM) and reduce the risk of crashes, ultimately leading to a better quality of life.
