Visible: Pacing for illness

Get more from the energy you have. Pacing (balancing activity and rest) is one of the best ways to live well with your condition and reduce the risk of crashes or PEM. But pacing can be hard. Visible gives you personalized insights to help you understand your body, manage your energy and pace with more confidence. Unlike fitness tracking apps, Visible is designed to support rest and pacing, not workouts and exercise.

“Visible has been LIFE-CHANGING. I had fibromyalgia before COVID and thought I did well at pacing, but this has helped me on a whole new level.” – Roma
“This is the first app in the 33 years since I have been diagnosed with this condition that shows me the data my doctor and I need. Fitness apps don't work well because they are not geared for people with POTS and PEM. This is the very first app that warns me when I have to SLOW DOWN and the monthly reports help my doctors get a better picture of how I'm doing.” – Lesli
“Visible has been life changing making an invisible illness visible. It has been credibly validating to have concrete evidence to show to others about what is going on behind the scenes." - Eleanor

Ratings and Reviews
I love this app, especially when you pair it with the wrist band. I just wish there was a watch face on it at least so I don't have to wear it and a watch together.
Useful so far Only about two weeks into this, but it's a very useful tool for helping me learn to pace. I have long COVID with a ME/CFS presentation, and I think this will help me avoid crashes and hopefully do some recovery. I bought the polar tracker using my Flex Spending account, and it gives better measurements than my old Fitbit and Google Health.
Vitial for those determined to serious about behaviour modification to achieve personal health improvement. Exceptional complex programing = higher value to the consumer. IMO Proactive prevention is possible. Granny Nerd
been using it for almost a year and was great until this week. it constantly disconnects for no reason, morning checks arent going through so points are no longer being tracked and when that happens not even my heart rate is saved throughout the day. not sure what happened to cause it to suddenly be useless.
it is super helpful to have and easy to use
Fast response & problem resolved! I assumed I'd have to find an alternative, so this was a pleasant surprise I can still use it Old review: App is now broken on my phone that has worked on for years. (Moto Edge 30) This morning when I tried to take a reading, the screen goes to a blank grey screen ad stops responding. The camera app still works so the driver for the sensor hasn't crashed, and I've cleared cache/force closed the app & rebooted the phone & the behaviour persists.
