AQ: Your Performance Coach

I don’t usually write reviews but this app is brilliant. It gives you tangible information about your stress levels, & gives you different types ways of being mindful & learning how to deal with your stress or anxiety or maybe you just want to get a better idea of what your stress levels are & how you’re doing. The fact that you can take actionable steps to do something with that data in one app is why I appreciate it so much.

I’ve been using this app ever since it came out and really love it. I’ve been meditating for a few years now but it’s really nice to see some tangible numbers behind it, it’s fascinating how much our pulse can tell us about or mental state and it’s ingenious that these guys figured out a way to mesure it with our phones. I especially enjoy the personalized meditations and have also gotten into a habit of measuring my AQ before and after certain activities, it’s really cool to see the change.

I’m not one to typically use an app like this, but this is the best one yet! Measuring your heart rate and giving an analysis of your mental states makes this much more personally connected and makes you want to improve your scores. The fact that they also give you three options of commitment for each practice is also a plus if you simply don’t have the time. Would highly recommend this app to help with your mental health, especially during these trying times!
