Apple Health 12+

This app has a lot of useful data that is compromised by three unnecessary flaws. 1) On the screen that shows HR range per day you can scroll back over previous days but the Y axis changes if the range is different on different days. This makes it impossible to get a visual senses of the trend of your hourly HR. The Y Axis should be controlled by a setting so that ppl can choose to have a fixed Y axis or a pointless and completely useless constantly changing one - you know, for ppl who don’t understand how graphs work and just want to look at a pretty picture. 2) The only solution to this constantly changing Y Axis is to painstakingly type the data into a spreadsheet and set up your own graph with a sensible not constantly changing Y Axis. There should be some way to dump the data from the app into a file format like CSV. 3) The app only shows min and max HR for each hour but the watch and app must have all the readings for each hour. The complete set of HR readings should be viewable in the app and shld be able to be dumped out to a file. When I first started using this app you could view all HR readings in a list view but then there was an upgrade and that view was removed. It should be put back. Apart from these annoying flaws it’s pretty OK.

I started using the Apple health app to track periods because sharing data concerns. It’s fine mostly but very hard to delete or change historical period data.
The app lets you edit symptoms easily, but if you want to delete a whole period or edit the duration, that is buried under “sharing”. Even then, you can’t delete anything older than 12 months and you can change the duration at all.
This seems like pretty basic stuff for a period tracker.
My predictions are all out of whack because the data says I had a one day period back in Jan 2021 and nothing at all for 609 days after that.

Very good for a free app, in general it has helped me see data and try to better manage my health.

One minor irritation is the medications part it gives you a list of options of tablet and spray and patch and gel etc but it doesn’t have an “other” option and does not include sublingual film medication. I don’t expect it to include something uncommon but an “other “ option would be ideal so you don’t have to use an inaccurate term. If you won’t have “other” then you need to include all the different forms of medication.

Suppository is written as an option I presume PR (per rectal) but there is also not any option for PV (per vagina) meds which I would think quite common as are used in fertility treatments. Again it’s fine to not include every option. But why is there no “other “ option ? I’m sure that’s a fairly simple thing to do compared to the complex ways to measure heart rate etc. not that I expect anyone to read this, but that would be a very easy way to make an improvement
