Trusted by 250,000+ users across 170+ countries, Sonar helps you cut through the noise across sleep, recovery, stress, activity, and nutrition - so you can focus on what actually matters. Sonar isn't just another health tracker. It merges the latest medical, sports and data science with AI engines that continuously surface subtle shifts and patterns across millions of data points, helping you know when to push, when to pause, and where to focus next. FEATURES: Personalized intelligence Sonar AI is a personal health agent grounded in the data across your wearables, health apps, and connected devices. Ask questions, understand changes in your scores, and get answers that reflect your actual data - not generic advice. Sonar AI also remembers personal context you give it like training goals, travel, or new routines, and factors it into how it interprets your data over time. Sync everything Fragmented data means missed signals. Connect Apple Watch, Garmin, Oura, Fitbit, Strava, Withings, MyFitnessPal, Peloton and many more. Daily scores and guidance Recovery, Strain, Sleep, Stress, Energy, and Nutrition scores help you understand your day at a glance, with practical guidance to improve. Correlations & comparisons See how any two metrics relate over time. Plot exercise against sleep, alcohol against HRV, or stress against recovery to surface the patterns driving how you feel each day. Compare up to six metrics at once, or focus the view on a single category like activity, sleep, or recovery. 24/7 vitals monitoring Track trends in HRV, resting heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen, body temperature, and more, and get notified when values move outside your typical range.

About

Aplomb

Aplomb guides you step by step through the head-repositioning maneuvers clinicians use for BPPV — the most common cause of vertigo — checking your head angle in real time with your iPhone's motion sensors. Hold the phone against your cheek, close your eyes, and follow a calm recorded voice. Haptic pulses guide you toward each position, and the voice confirms when you arrive, counts your holds, and coaches you back if you drift. DESIGNED FOR DIZZY MOMENTS • Voice-first guidance, made to be used with your eyes closed • Real-time head-angle checks using the gyroscope and accelerometer • Haptic guidance you can feel through a pillow • Big, calm screens with no flashing and no spinning animations WHAT'S INSIDE • Guided Epley maneuver, left and right variants • Gentler Brandt-Daroff routine for when no affected side has been named • A safety check before every session, every time • Episode diary with symptom check-ins and a recovery timeline • PDF export of your history to share with your clinician • Learn hub with plain-language articles about BPPV PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No server. Your data stays on your iPhone and in your own iCloud. Nothing is sold, shared, or used for advertising. YOUR FIRST GUIDED SESSION IS FREE The safety check, learn articles and diary are always free. Keep guiding with a 30-day Relief Pass, a yearly plan, or a one-time lifetime unlock — payments handled by the App Store. IMPORTANT Aplomb is a guidance and education tool, not a medical device. It does not diagnose vertigo or detect which ear is affected, and it is not a substitute for medical care. If this is your first episode of vertigo, or your symptoms change, see a clinician. For ages 18 and over. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy policy: https://aplomb.health/privacy
