Welltory: Heart Health Monitor 12+

I was dubious about buying this app, but I thought nothing else works, so I took the plunge. It’s put me in the right direction and I’m happy to say that although I still feel stressed, I have seen a little improvement the more I use it. It’s not a magic bullet and the developer doesn’t claim that it is but if you’re willing to listen to the advice and put in the effort you may or may not find that it helps. There’s a plethora of activities and health advice, and I have found that it’s given me an insight of how I can change things for the better and for me personally, this app is the best of many I’ve tried. If I can express one criticism and that is, there are a great many people like myself who are not fast readers for various reasons, I have a neurological condition that has slowed my brain processes down and I can’t keep up with with the rapid fire information flashing before my eyes whilst I’m having my stress, energy, etc analysed. At this moment I can feel the benefits and it’s the first day I have managed to crawl out of the red tank and into the yellow one. There are three colours, somewhat similar to traffic lights and it’s green for go that I hope to achieve and even if I feel just a small percentage of the person I once was, I will feel that it was money well spent.

Hi there! Thank you so much for your positive and comprehensive review. We appreciate it and have passed it on to our team.

We're genuinely delighted you're enjoying your experience with Welltory so much!

I downloaded this app on the recommendation of a friend. I wanted to be able to know my stress levels and find out more of what’s going on within my body and before I bought a garmin watch that has those features I thought I would try this app. It is amazing. It is so detailed and accurate. It pops up with the readings from my watch and when I go into the app it has pretty much summed up how I am feeling with regards to energy levels, stressed, tiredness etc. I wish I had found it sooner! I’m on the free trial option still. You get full access for 5 days which shows you all its amazing advantages so I don’t know what it will be like after the 5 days and how much information it will give after the 5 days. It is a bit pricey to buy, if they done an intro offer it would be better and maybe more affordable for people to purchase? That’s my only negative.

Hello, and thanks a lot for the feedback. We truly appreciate it and are happy that you enjoy using our app.

Not only did they bombard me into a yearly subscription with their incessant ads, but have now completely redesigned the display which might have been to simplify things (it needed it) but I now feel like they’ve taken away all the actually useful data points (eg HRV detail) without actually adding anything useful. It’s now just more smoke and mirrors. (Previous feedback was these metrics contradicted each other with no explanation - Welltory the solution isn’t to just remove them entirely!) Also the HRV ANS analysis now does not happen automatically on a Breathe session from the Apple Watch. It was the one thing I used but now that doesn’t work. FIX IT. The very basic “wellness” tips are annoying, repetitive and pointless. Get rid of them. Also I’ve already paid an annual sub (which I wish I hadn’t) so now you continue to bombard me with a “lifetime” upsell?? GO AWAY AND LEAVE ME IN PEACE. Totally pointless useless app that could be good but has gone down a ridiculous path so just ends up confusing users. Not happy I’ve paid good money for annual premium only to have valuable features taken away from my dashboard. I want to cancel my sub and ask for a refund as I feel I’ve been taken for a ride. Please avoid this at all costs for your own sanity.
