BetterYou Overview

What is BetterYou?

BetterYou is a healthy habits companion that helps people find time in the day for their health. If you're looking for a product that your team will actually use, you need something lightweight. Most apps ask you to enter your progress each day: did you go to the gym, did you call your friends etc. BetterYou asks your phone those questions making keeping up with your health as easy as having your phone on you. We run health challenges across 8 dimensions of wellness so you can run a head to head challenge with a co-worker or with your entire company. Challenges on BetterYou don't require manual entry. Earn rewards in the form of gift cards as you make progress. BetterYou has over 100 options for different gift cards.

What do you like best about BetterYou?

It shows you exactly where you excel, and where you are lacking.

It automatically track most of the goals, so no need to remind yourself to get on the app and log actions yourself.

The habit score is a great way to know where you are, and if you have a great score for two weeks straight, you know it's time to raise your goals a little! Which makes the whole concept tangible and observable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BetterYou?

I would loved for some of the goals to include more practical progress logging methods.

For calling friends and family: I would loved if it could track other social media apps as many people use other apps beside just normal phone calls.

For Reading: I wish I could've used another method for logging goals as I only read physical books and usually at home. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BetterYou solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's helping me moving more, mediating more, sleeping better, and overall getting my habits on track. Me being a better me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BetterYou?

This is the first app that just doesn't focus on your physical fitness but your mental fitness as well. I love going to see how I am doing for the week as far as reading, socializing, sleep, and more.

Some of the apps are integrated making it easy to use and to keep you coming back to check in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BetterYou?

The only thing I wish is my data about reading and other apps was an automatic thing (rather than a screenshot) but I understand the logistics of having apps talk to each other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BetterYou solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is helping me to maintain my mental wellness as well as making sure I keep my body in check too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BetterYou?

Better You accurately syncs with my devices. It hold me accountable to reach goals I have set for myself. It is also fun to challenge friends/coworkers and try to beat them to completing the goal. Who doesn't like a little friendly competition. I like that I can also manually enter progress towards my goals as I live in a rural area and sometimes going to a place for check in to a goal is not always feasible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BetterYou?

Downside is that on some of the goals you have to visit a place, I live in a rural area thus limiting my options and opportunities to go to places. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BetterYou solving and how is that benefiting you?

BetterYou is helping me meet more goals. Aside from meeting my steps, sleep and fitness goals Better You gives the the opportunity to practice self care through reading, socialization and spirituality. It holds me accountable for creating that time for myself where before I would get distracted or busy and put that time on the back burner. I'm the type of person who likes to see the circle each week complete so it challenges me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BetterYou?

I really like the way students can do Buddy Challenges and BetterBot Challenges as that really gets them motivated to beat each other and reach their goals first (I am competitive too and that always gets me to follow through with accomplishing my goals!) Of course, getting $5 gift cards also motivates the students to sign up and engage in the app. I found the data dashboard useful and meeting with my rep to see the engagement was valuable too. It was really easy to implement on our campus and our rep was very responsive to our questions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BetterYou?

What do you like best about BetterYou?

BetterYou has been great in encouraging me to keep up healthy habits. I find that it makes me more accountable. It's user friendly. Easy to connect to the Apple health app to track steps and meditation. I've had a little trouble with taking pictures of the screen time in settings to record fitness sessions. It didn't always record. But tech support was very responsive to the problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BetterYou?

I have not found any down side to using the app. I've been using it for months. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Incentivized Review
What do you like best about BetterYou?

BetterYou has an extreme ease of use. Participants simply establish their goals and the app works in the background and does the rest. Adopting BetterYou was easy to implement and integrated naturally with the rest of our ecosystem. Our students and staff constantly talked about how often they use BetterYou and how features like the nudges keep them motivated. The customer support team is fantastic and communicates regularly with us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BetterYou?

There's nothing that I dislike about BetterYou. Any features that I would like to see are often included in the road map. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have any dislikes or issues to share. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
