Confusing

The layout is confusing, hard to find the reports and adding vitals, health information and confirming taken medication feature.

Privacy nightmare

I deleted the app after a couple weeks because it was giving worthless info.

Now they’re sending me multiple weekly emails with no way to unsubscribe, violating the decades old CAN-SPAM Act.

And look at all the info they collect about you. That is not protected under HIPAA.

These are not the practices of a trustworthy company.

Great app, wish it had a watch version

I love this app - it’s very useful for keeping all my health info in one place so I don’t have to use SO MANY other apps to keep track of everything. I just wish there was an apple watch version. It would be really helpful to be able to mark meds as taken and input other data from my watch so I don’t have to always pull out my phone if it isn’t convenient to.

Very Good! However...

Something I would have to suggest for this app would be easier back-dating; i deal with major dissociation issues due to my mental health, and sometimes, even tho i'm symptomatic, i'm not entirely present enough to remember to input my symptoms. it would be nice to have an easier option to go back a day or few, and input the symptoms i felt that day.
My other suggestion would be to have a widget function, either via lock screen or home screen; something i can visually see with my symptoms, or with a chart, or maybe even something saying "have any pain/symptoms today?" and i can be like "oh! yeah i do! let me record it".

Otherwise, amazing app, and i prefer it to any other tracker out there.

Can’t tell if I like it

It won’t let me get started. I got stuck on the level of anxiety and fatigue. My initial anxiety was none but it won’t show the circles for fatigue and won’t scroll up or go next. Increased my anxiety lol If it worked I might like it, couldn’t tell.

Really helpful for sleep and wellness tracking

I’m in my 50s and struggling with sleep disruption due to menopause. I found it gave me some good insights that I was able to share with my doctor. Mental health tools are also a plus.

Symptoms disappear after updating phone

I started using this app to track my symptoms which was fine until I realized that every time ios updates, all the saved symptoms disappear and you have to re-enter EVERY SINGLE ONE of your symptoms. And many of us chronically ill folks have many many symptoms and do not have the physical capacity to be re-entering symptoms every time ios updates. I do not have the ability to use my hands very much and re-doing all the symptoms would just cause a flare at this point so I’ve stopped using the app. This is extremely upsetting as I put a lot of effort into logging my symptoms and I really thought this app would help on my recovery journey but it turned out to just be a huge waste of time and physical energy.

Amazing!!

This app is simply amazing! It has provided me with beneficial tips on improving both my physical and mental health. The helpful content and the daily insights keep me on track so that’s a huge plus for me!

Also, the support team is quick and helpful in regards to questions and feedback!

Great Symptom Tracker!

Super useful to track symptoms on a day to day basis. The analytics and charts make it really easy to spot trends and detect what activities or actions help managing my condition.

Great for managing my Rheumatoid Arthritis

Wave health was a great tool for getting me the content I needed. Felt like I was in control and could actually understand what was causing my flare ups!!!

Symptoms are glitchy

User friendly interface and I like how you can rate your condition as a percentage. But the main reason I downloaded this app was to track my symptoms, and they keep disappearing. At first, they were all there for a few days. Then they all disappeared. I added them back. They disappeared again. I added some back. Then they were gone every time I opened the app, custom and app-listed symptoms. It’s just too time consuming, plus there is no way to chart these symptoms.

Premium is disappointing, will not continue.

While it’s a fairly user friendly UI and it’s great to add so many custom symptoms, those symptoms will consistently disappear causing a lot of frustration and repeated entries (which will sometimes randomly show up again so you have double custom symptom options). On top of that, generating a simple report on specific metrics is the opposite of simple and defeats the purpose for tracking and sharing custom progress. I’ll be canceling my subscription and using another app, overall disappointed and would like a refund for the last few months I tried to give it a chance.

Needs Improvement

I have been using this app for a week now. There are positives as it tracks many issues. However if you make an error in the sleep tracking and try to correct the times it keeps adding up the hours. Yesterday I apparently slept for 33.5 hours😂😂. For this reason I would never pay $10.99 for a false report.

Customer service is wonderful

Overall, I find the app moderately helpful. I am in my first 14 days of trying the app and it’s ok so far. Also, the customer service is really good. I had trouble with the app and I emailed the customer service e-mail. They got back to me really quickly with a great solution. Couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

Hi Cody, Thank you for the review! Hopefully we've been able to resolve this for you. We appreciate you reaching out. Please let us know if anything else comes up! - Claudia, Wave Health Team

Not really user-friendly

It is too finicky, and it prompts me for details that aren’t relevant to me. It’s fine if you don’t have an easier alternative.

Helpful and free, not without its bugs

I like using Wave because it doesn’t require me to be diagnosed with anything or on medications to use it. I love adding my own symptoms and I basically use the app like journal for my physical symptoms throughout the day. However, I have often experienced that my symptom list gets erased if the app crashes. It can be really slow sometimes (like when logging bowel movements, etc.) and having to relist all my symptoms frequently annoys me. Other than that you aren’t going to find a better health tracking app for free!

Set symptoms disappeared randomly

One day all of my symtoms disappeared as options when I get my notification to update how I feel. They still show on the charts view, but I can't actually update them and now have to manually add everything back. Would love a backup option or something to make this easier.

Additionally, it would be great to get better data visualization or at least averaging options for symptoms. The chart view is very difficult to actually see trends on and a rolling average might improve readability.

Pretty good

It’s a good application but a bit glitchy and slow
Besides that it really is good
I’m using it for recording my antidepressant withdrawal symptoms

Wave health UX and UI

Love the UX and UI, very easy to use, definitely check this app out!

Excellent!

Revolutionized my patient journey, and really gave me a feeling of control! 10/10 would recommend
