The newest Gyroscope V9.2 is now available for download in the App Store.

Our mission is to fix human health. This version brings us much closer to achieving that mission, improving the insights in the app, the speed and efficiency of tracking, as well as improving the design so it is more fun to use daily.

The app is now almost 10 years old now, and so we are constantly maintaining and updating the technology to stay on the cutting edge while being stable and reliable.

V9 introduced a new AI infrastructure and coaching system, and this version brings major updates to the app itself, bringing improved speed and performance, plus a refreshed design language with iOS26 liquid glass, iOS shortcuts, and more. Special thanks to Expo, the React Native team, Mapbox, and the thousands of other contributors across hundreds of foundational technologies and helpful packages needed to bring this experience together.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger

One of the core principles of the app is to track all your food, and make it possible for the first time ever to do that while still living your life. The food camera and other tools make this easier than ever, and we are constantly streamlining the experience to be faster, more reliable, more accurate. So you can spend more time living your life, while still having accurate data.

In this version we have improved the speed, reliability and intelligence of the Health Camera to better understand and track your meals. There were situations where sometimes it would get stuck or not process, which should be fixed now with intelligent retries.

When a photo is food or drink, first of all it will automatically get saved. This means you can close the app or go back at this point, and the actual item has been successfully saved when you see the checkmark.

So you don’t need to wait for the grade and full analysis, and those can continue in the background or be done when you next open the app. Or if you do want to see the exact grade and calories, then you can press “See Grade” at this point.

Sometimes the photo can be mysterious or unclear, while other times it is pretty self explanatory. Now you will see a prompt if a caption would be helpful, or if it could be skipped. (Though you can always add text if you want to or have more info to share, or want to specify something custom like that you only ate half of what was shown).

New iOS shortcuts and force press menu

We have optimized the speed to logging, reducing the number of taps and steps needed — now just one, the absolute lowest and fastest possible.

This can be done by going to your phone settings > search for “Action button” > Scroll across to "Shortcut > then select “Gyroscope Food Camera” from the list of available options.

Now when you press the action button on your phone (the button in the top-left above the volume controls), it will go straight to your food camera, allowing you one-click logging of a meal, and then quick saving and insights just a few seconds later. Here you can choose to type more details to boost the accuracy, or skip for maximum speed.

Similarly, you can also jump straight to the same Food Camera from your home screen. Just force press (press extra-hard) on the icon, and you’ll see the menu, with shortcuts to common actions like talking to your coach, seeing your timeline, or logging food. So if you know you are about to log a meal, you can skip some of the steps of opening the app, pressing the + button (which is not many steps, but still some) — but if you are logging more than 2 or 3 meals a day, or every single thing you drink and supplements too, small speedups here can start to add up.

Text Input

A photo is worth a thousand words as they say, and the best balance of accuracy and effort. However, sometimes a photo isn’t taken or hard to do. So now you can also enter in text more easily.

For text input, now the keyboard is autoselected and you can start typing asap. Voice input has also been improved, so you can just dictate what you ate instead of typing it in.

Faster Editing

Generally your food will get analyzed correctly and accurately, especially if some helpful details were provided to give some hints about what you ate. However, sometimes it may need adjustment.

Now the editing interface should also be faster and more reliable, so you can type in what you ate with more detail, or specify faster changes to portion sizes and it will recalculate the entire meal for you using the new specifications. In previous versions, sometimes it wouldn’t automatically refresh the data so you had to close and reopen the page to see the changed info, but now that is not necessary and you should see the changes asap.

New customizations

Not everyone in the same. While there are many patterns and common things—everyone needs to use their muscles, everyone wants to have a working brain, everyone must sleep and eat healthy food, etc.—the exact constraints, preferences and styles can vary a lot.

By default the Health Camera is set to automatic and can detect hundreds of things now—blood levels, blood pressure, weight, shopping, food menus, etc.—to allow you to most easily track everything, get insights from your coach and more, all from the same simple intuitive action.

But for even faster tracking for food, you can customize the food camera back to default food option, which makes the camera behave more similarly to how it was before when it was only tracking food.

Ways to personalize the app

We have expanded the customization settings here, with new options that can really tune your app experience to your liking. You can spend a few minutes here to tune your experience exactly how you want it, or try out some various options to adjust until you find the perfect setup.

Two major new categories are: how your daily report looks when you first open the app, and how the AI features behave.

Customizing your daily report

For the daily report, you can choose between a simple mode with your face in the middle (and update your avatar if you haven’t already), or daily points, where your activity and balance is scored. Some people really like having a clear score and more immediate feedback, while others don’t, so now the choice is yours. Similarly, you can adjust if you want to see your food immediately onload, or prefer a general text explanation. If you are in the middle of an aggressive cut or find it is hard to stay aware of your food, then that can be helpful, otherwise for most people we recommend leaving it on text to see more of an overview.

Designing your ideal day

Now you can also adjust your daily routine. You can turn it all off to just use the app as you want “a la carte” — or set these up as kind of “tasting menus” where it comes in a packaged course. If you just want to open the app once or twice and do everything in one go, then you can load up your morning or evening routines with a bunch of actions.

This gives you a clear dashboard and configuration panel for your day and control over how you want to live your life. Doing this proactively can be useful, otherwise you may find your time and attention just gets filled up by random things like social media, emails and the thousands of other things that want your time, instead of what you intended or positive habits like meditation, journaling, etc.

You can expand upon this further by browsing the Labs and selecting from over 50 science-based habits. It could be supplements or many other things, that have been proven to help improve sleep, focus, stress or whatever else you are interested in. Finding and selecting these is the first step, but then actually doing it daily is not always easy. Actually going and taking the supplement you bought, or enacting the habit, or even something as simple as remembering to switch your phone to greyscale. Now as you install these habits, they will show up in your routines as quick reminders and ways to one-click log that you have done it.

Customizing your AI coach

On the AI side, now you can select between speed-optimized for fastest performance (while still being smart enough to be useful), or deeper focus and thinking before responding, focusing on finding more correlations or double-checking things before responding.

With current technology, basically the more you wait and the more money you spend on thinking, the better the responses can be. For food analysis, you can also decide how deeply you want the meal grading—focus on calories and macros for the fastest result, or go deeper into things like double-checking micronutrients or getting extra warnings.

Some people prefer it to go as fast as possible and want to spend minimal time waiting, while others would prefer to wait an extra minute for even deeper insights or boosted accuracy—now the choice is yours!

Improved consultations

In addition to adjusting the app behavior in the Customization section, now you can use the consultations in your coach section to provide even more custom information. Here you can specify all your history, preferences, restrictions, and much more. You’ll get a comprehensive report, and your coach will be able to use it to continue personalizing your app experience.

In V9.2 we have made the consultation go faster, while still going in depth, and fixed some issues where it could get stuck or ask too many questions that were similar.

New and improved styles

Most of our members are on iOS26 now, and we have updated the app to make use of the latest technologies here, both visually and behind the scenes.

Featuring iOS26 Liquid Glass

Now the main navigation elements and components use sleek liquid glass, so you get a more immersive view of your data while still having quick access to navigation.

Improved reporting

Now it is easier to browse your trends view and see older graphs. In the Health section, you can access an updated view of your fitness, mind, food and blood levels—just tap on an item to go into that section.

In the Trends section, opening a particular section has also been streamlined to show more info in one screen, automatically scroll and position the window to see it, allow for zooming in to the last week OR zooming out to multiple years, and more.

From the History tab, now you can jump back with calendar view to quickly relive any day from your past.

Improved AI capabilities and tools

You have new tools and reports in the app... and your AI coach now has new tools too.

We’ve expanded the coaching chat to allow your coach to do even more special actions — like looking up your recent food, days, and other data while you are chatting. In this version, your coach can have expanded access to blood level history, the last few weeks of reports, your consultations and preferences, new ways to save data on your behalf (like food, workouts, blood levels and more), and much more.

Your coach chat can now make it easier to log simple things too and do basic actions in the app, like save a meal, set simple data like your latest weight or a workout, processing new blood levels, and more, making it much easier to use the app without needing to navigate to different screens to do things.

These tools are now managed intelligently—so if you are talking about your eating and making changes, then your coach could look up the exact details of what you ate yesterday. If you were talking about something else like your training plans, then it may not benefit from knowing how many grams of sugar you ate last tuesday, but rather focus on pulling up your workouts and performance. And similarly across many datapoints and topics.

In this version, some of these new tools (currently read-only, no saving) can also be accessed via the realtime call, so you can hop on a voice call with your coach and discuss your latest meals now instead of typing.

Many members have hundreds of millions of datapoints now in their Gyroscope account, so this system allows for intelligent access to all of these in a safe and helpful way, while still being fast and focused.

Improved Chat Interface

The chat is one of the main ways you can interact with your coach. In this update, we are making it as sleek, powerful and nice to use as possible. With updated liquid glass, the messages are more immersive and also have new powerful capabilities.

Now you can reply to a specific message, making it easier to reply to the messages your coach sends through the day and keep the context. Or if you already started up a conversation recently, now you can jump back into it and continue it... for example if you got a recipe earlier, and now you are in the middle of making it and want to talk about it, or make adjustments... or even just log a portion from it.

When starting a conversation, you can choose if you want to persist it and keep it in your history and memory, or if it was really temporary and not necessary—for example if you just wanted to ask a quick question or log something you can skip saving it, or if it is something that may be relevant to remember later or you may want to go back to.

You can also delete older messages now, if your history is getting a bit too crowded or you accidentally posted the wrong thing.

Improved voice in and out

The microphone entry has been redesigned to be nicer and easier to use. Please note that it does require decently clear audio quality, so if you are somewhere really loud or are speaking really quietly then it may have trouble picking it up, just like anything else. However, generally the transcription should work quite well.

You can use voice to send longer and more detailed messages, giving in-depth replies instead of just typing a few words. Voice input is available for coach chat, journals, consultations and a few other areas across the app.

Improved Calls

Now you call your coach from the coach tab, and the call experience has been enhanced to be more reliable.

Important note: You do need to wear headphones for it to work. Since it goes in realtime, this is essential to avoid echos and ensure high quality audio.

Now the call also has access to updated tools similar to the chat, so your coach can look up things like your latest meals to give more tailored feedback, and this can be done in realtime as you are discussing things.

In general, we recommend using the call more for high-level brainstorms, getting feedback, or just general talk.

Improved Consultations

In the new coaching system, you can really tailor your experience by completing the 6 consultations. Each one goes deep into particular topics like your nutrition, mind, goals, etc. to provide a very comprehensive report, as well as give your coach the insights needed to keep tailoring your plan.

Some people reported some bugs or issues here with too many questions, so we have streamlined the experience here to ask clearer questions and still go in-depth without going too long either. Now you’ll also see an option to end after finishing about 20 questions, so you’ll have the option to keep providing more information or end once you feel like you have shared all the relevant details.

If you haven’t finished all the consultations yet, now is a good time to do them. If you have, you should find that they will be incorporated more across your app experience to keep customizing and tailoring what you see.
