“My sleep is highly irregular. I often use RXs, supplements, scotch, and/or loud music to help me drift off - but I have trouble ballparking actual sleep vs just laying in bed. Now that I'm using my Biostrap, I both know and track my sleep metrics. I can now start associating time-to-fall-asleep, sleep quality, and sleep efficacy (recovery) with all my personal and environmental factors. I start recording sleep in the app when I lay down so Biostrap even reports how long it takes me to fall asleep every night, along with when I wake during the night (and for how long) and tracks me as I drift between light and deep sleep.
Biostrap is providing a plethora of useful information and all I have to do is put on a surprisingly comfortable wristband (I'm not a watch wearer) before getting in bed. After aggregating half a month of my data, it's now providing recommendations for sleep routines. I can see daily, weekly, and monthly trends and even compare my actual sleep vs Biostrap's recommendations based on my vitals. I definitely made the right choice with Biostrap to discover my sleep metrics. If I stop being a couch potato, I'll get to check out Biostrap's fitness capabilities. For now, I'm just thankful to get accurate data on my sleep.”
“The wristbands are cool, but one of them have broken after only a few days. The know holding the strap in place has already fallen out.
Maybe this in one the sensors don't come with these original straps anymore?”
“I am initially using the sleep analysis function. Being Bipolar Type II and a life long insomniac i want to better understand my sleep patterns.
Next I plan to get into activity tracking.
My wish is 24 x 7 vitals monitoring. I am 65 years old with partial artery blockage.
I will research how to share data with my psychiatrist and my medical doctor.”
“I had this band for 2.5 weeks and the little copper prong on end popped right off :( and tried to push it back together and just snapped . Not worth 2$ day noting 20$ very poor Quality!”
“Biostrap devices have been in my life since their early inception and I truly cannot be without my EVO wrist band and my activity pod! I truly enjoy the data points that Biostrap can define and breakdown for me, and the monthly reports are fantastic from a data perspective! Great products, and I’d highly recommend them!!!”
“Delivery was delayed. Then my wristband worked intermittently, and the support tool was very slow. The individuals were always friendly, I don’t blame them, I think Biostrap must need a larger staff or a better system. In a month, I had 4-5 tickets open.
I also purchased the sleep and meditation labs, but had to contact Biostrap myself about gaining access. After gaining access, there were no instructions about where in the app to locate them, or how to use them in advance, and their location was not intuitive. I never got to use either, as it took so long to gain access and then my armband quit functioning properly shortly thereafter.
Ultimately, I chose to return my set for a refund.
I loved the depth of data when I did have access to it, loved the clip-on activity tracker, and loved that it could be used on airplane mode.
I would love to try Biostrap later on as it works out the kinks in its customer-facing communication!”
“Horrible customer service - returned my EVO sensor. Customer/tech support took 3 weeks and several emails, Facebook posts, and Facebook messages to respond to my requests for support. Issue was never resolved, so I returned my EVO and will find another company.”
“Got this for Christmas and loving how it’s helping me on my wellness journey. Seeing the sleep details & recovery score has been really helpful in managing dynamic disability.”
“I love biostrap. But I have went through 2 bands in the first six weeks. Clasp broke on one 6 days in. A few days ago the rubber that holds the clasp ripped. I have a Versa 2 and a whoop. Never had any band issues. I prefer the biostrap but can’t wear it without a more durable band.”
“Good size and feel. Keeps the sensor in place. There’s a matt finish on the whole thing and it’s started to rub off along the edges. Wonder if it’s better to do away with this finish so the strap doesn’t start to look dated so quickly. Otherwise, a great update to the classic pin strap”
