Store ratings include star-only taps from in-app prompts, which skew high. The peak and recent figures come only from people who wrote a review, which skews low. Compare each against itself: the drop is the signal, and a big gap between the two usually means heavy rating prompting is masking unhappy users.

Said it was free - it 3 not. 3 days free and then the price goes way up.
First it is a click bait. It is not free at all. I already rate it low when the app ask me to rate bit my rate does not show. So I came to the store to make sure I rate it right. You can’t try until you subscribe for 2 weeks free then 10$. I would have done it if they were honest from the start but now, no.
Constantly asks me to join premium
BP results are definitely a joke. I wanted to check my BP. As soon as I clicked it started calibrating. I thought it was setting up to take my BP instead it registered a measurement. After experimenting I realized it automatically started anytime anything red (no matter how small) was in the focus area. And instructions on how to take measurements aren’t easily available. Now that I know about the BP measurements I’m leery of any other measurements from this app. I recommend skipping this one.
The blood sugar check didnt work or not available it asked me to enter manually
It is 100% bait and switch, they say it's free but you can't get past there first screen of try for free which they already said was free. Then if you close that you get a minute long ad and only one feature works when that goes away. They also say if you give them a positive review that you can have this features free which they don't follow through on that either
The come on is that it’s totally free. As soon as you download and attempt to open it reverts to a free trial page. Deceiving.
App is not accurate. Checked BP at doctor office then tried this app. Registered significantly higher.
The ad said it was free then get on it and then it’s gonna cost 10 bucks every week if somebody could really afford that and they wouldn’t relied upon it sometimes you really need it to make sure that you’re OK. Those people that have high blood pressure and diabetics really could use this to help them when they’re away from home but the false advertisement is so stupid. I don’t understand why people would try to use it when I heard it was free. I put it in my phone for my husband to make sure he was OK, but it was a waste of my time and it doesn’t seem like it wants to help people. It just wants money. It would be very helpful if you help people lose weight instead of having to get a shot.
The advertising said free app and check blood sugar without a glucometer. The only thing it does is checks heart rate. Anything else it tries to get you to pay for premium. It does offer free three days but have to physically cancel it to avoid recurring charges. Useless.
Lying about free application. There is a monthly fee
The free app won’t do anything till you upgrade to premium. It’s a ripoff
How can this advertise as a free app and then outline payment options in the App Store information? Neither is there any cost listed or any mention of anything free. I don’t understand.
Won’t do anything unless you agree to pay $9.99 per week? So much for “free.” Complete ripoff!
It wanted me to pay $9.99 for a FREE trial! Hey morons! $9.99 isn’t free! You people are stupid! DELETE,
I cannot review this app because I could not use this app. The minute I downloaded it and opened it, it refused to do anything until I subscribed for what would total $520 a year of premium service. I gave it one star because you can’t give them zero stars
It’s not free, stop telling wrong information to make money. We have to pay for subscription
The add says it’s free. Than when you download it you find out it costs money. Maybe the download is free the actual usage costs. That’s false advertising
This app does not measure blood sugar for free, as advertised… it doesn’t “measure” blood sugar at all. Plenty of free apps measure heart rate, as this one does. Not worth the cost! Deleting it now.
They make you write a review before you can use the free app that they advertise. That’s not honest dealings. So now I will be deleting the app from my phone.
totally useless application
They claim that it is free.sure you can download it for free but if you want to use it it’s $9.99 a month. To me it’s the same as lying.
I downloaded this app and it will not let me continue in a free version. The only way to open it is to try the paid version.
False advertisement
Classic bait and switch.
What would it take to build a viable competitor, what would it cost to run every month, and a prompt to get started. Generated from the reviews on file; one LLM call per brief. Set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY for a real brief; the stub only fills in a template.
