No, that music listening we are getting from Spotify through Facebook. The app info is from Rescuetime though.

This was a really fun project. We weren't actually planning to do any annual reports, but over the break I was digging through my own data and there were a few things I wanted to see. Few days later we had a basic page and figured migh

my point was we're working now to try to figure out the right mechanism — whether it is pro subscriptions or selling hardware, etc. — so we don't end up in a position where we'll need to sell data later.

iPhones for the past few years have actually been tracking steps and other data in the background & storing it in Healthkit. You won't be able to get heart rate, but a lot of our views can be powered with just software. Our new hea

Thanks! First of all, we're not selling any data, nor do we ever plan to. We do make money by offering a pro subscription--this new design is one of the features, along with things like custom domains and access to our Healthkit app. W

Thanks! This is actually already available, and a demo of our new Gyroscope Pro offering, which is $7 a month and includes things like this new theme, custom domain name support (which is how I have it going to aprilzero.com), our healthkit

For me, it has served a similar purpose to the dashboard in a car or plane. This latest design also slightly reflects that visually. When you're driving a car, you're not staring at the speedometer, or constantly checking the gas

Hah nice. I tried to do a heart for Valentines day, but took a wrong turn towards the end. https://www.instagram.com/p/zGjaXjxTL4/

This seems like a great idea. What if we all decided to start calling them Idiot Squad or something?

We just added that information to the top of our about page: https://gyrosco.pe/about/ Scaling is hard so we want to make sure we don't break everything, but we're really excited to have everyone start using

Yeah that makes sense. We've started to switch more towards things like Rescuetime for that information, since the github auth options are very all or nothing. I wish there were more granular scopes so we could use just the metadata or

Moves does theoretically track that stuff, but it is not reliable enough. For example, walking quickly or being in a car often ends up being considered cycling for half a block. On the other hand, if you turned on Runkeeper or Strava and sa

Sorry about that. I don't think many people here are getting straight in, I imagine they're commenting on the homepage and the pages that other users have made publicly viewable. We haven't automated the invite system yet and

Strava and RunKeeper are both amazing apps. I'd suggest to try them both and see which you prefer. It's a great time to be a runner!

We haven't fully launched yet - we've started sending out invites as we slowly scale up to everyone. But we just updated our site with more details about Gyroscope and are starting to accelerate that process now.

Rescuetime is free. They have a paid upgrade but you don't need it. And you don't need to have all of the steps complete, just a majority of them. There isn't an exact threshold, we just want people to have a good experience

Thanks! There are so many more integrations we are excited to start using, can't get to them fast enough. PS: We're hiring :)

I made the April Zero site by myself, but Gyroscope has been a massive undertaking with many people involved. @ericflo built most of the backend and API powering this, and some of our other friends like @mirashii and @wingfield also helped

Sorry, the site is under heavy load right now but should get faster soon. We process the data and store the results in our database.

Originally it was Python and now a combination of Python & Go.
