Hand Tremor Tracker vs SteadySense

Hand Tremor Tracker is the most accurate hand tremor measurement tool available on the App Store. The application uses sensitive built-in device sensors to measure fluctuations of the device in three-dimensional axes. When the user holds their phone on top of their hand, the fluctuations of the holding hand become fluctuations of the device, allowing us to measure current hand tremor. See the references at the end of the description for more information. How to use: 1) Place your phone on top of your hand. 2) Tap the measure button to initiate a new measurement. 3) The application takes about 10 seconds to measure your current hand tremor. The application requires a paid subscription. A free trial is available. Subscriptions are automatically renewed and can be canceled at any time. Upon purchase of a subscription, Apple's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy apply: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Consider seeking a doctor’s advice in addition to using this app and before making any medical decisions.

SteadySense is a motion tracking and visualization app that records short device movement sessions using your iPhone’s built-in motion sensors. It helps you observe and compare patterns in hand-held device motion over time through clear charts and summaries. You can record brief sessions (such as 10 seconds), view motion magnitude visualizations, and save recordings to review later. SteadySense is designed for personal insight and exploration of motion patterns — not for medical use. Features • Record short device motion sessions using iOS Core Motion • Visualize hand-held motion and shaking patterns with charts • Save sessions and compare motion changes over time • Simple, clean, and focused interface Important Note SteadySense is not a medical device and does not provide diagnostic or clinical measurements. It is intended for informational and personal use only.
