What devices does it need?

Most of the Gyroscope features just need your phone. Your iPhone already has dozens of sensors, so we reuse them rather than have you buy new wearables. Your camera is used as an advanced food sensor, while GPS & wifi is used for places and steps.

The app itself will track most of your metrics like mood, cortisol, meditation, breathwork, nutrition, sleep, workouts and running.

Having more sensors and wearables will improve the experience and accuracy by providing heart rate, glucose and other measures. Some recommended devices are the Apple Watch, Oura ring, or a scale that checks bodyfat. Thousands of other apps and devices are also supported through the Apple Health integration, and you can also enter data directly in the app.

Can I trust you with my data?

Privacy and security is at the core of the Gyroscope experience. The whole company and business model is designed to ensure you have full control of your data & privacy. You can delete your data at any time, or control who sees it.

The only way we make money is through the subscriptions, and never by selling data. The only way we succeed is by making an app that truly works and keeps you healthy each day.

Our team members previously helped build many other services you’ve probably heard of, including Quizlet, Twitter and SpaceX. We are funded by some of the top investors in Silicon Valley, including True Ventures and Matrix Partners, who were also early investors in companies like Fitbit, Peloton, Blue Bottle, Apple, and many others.

Is this free?

Gyroscope has a free level, which includes mood tracking, meditation, and guides to improve your health. Some of our popular features that require significant engineering resources to run (like Places or Health Score) require a membership but can be accessed for a very low monthly fee.

How much does this cost?

We have a variety of plans, ranging from just $5 a month for Track to start tracking your health in the app, to the higher Score plan which includes an AI health coach and human support to get set up.

Those who want the best of the best can join Food Coach for more human guidance and cutting edge nutrition insights.

If you don’t want to pay, you can install the app for free to get started with some of the essential features and access to all the science guides.
