Recurring themes

App Stability & Bugs negative
Many recent reviews highlight severe issues with the app crashing, freezing, showing blank screens, or failing to load content after updates. This contradicts the developer's notes claiming 'bug fixes and performance improvements'.R41R42R47R48
Syncing Issues negative
A pervasive problem is the app's inability to consistently sync with external health devices like Apple Health, Fitbit, and Max Buzz. Users report losing steps, active minutes, and sleep data, often for extended periods, directly impacting their ability to earn points.R5R11R14R21
Login Problems negative
Many users cannot log into the app, despite their credentials working fine on the Personify Health website. This prevents them from accessing any features or tracking their progress.R53R66R67R69
Customer Support negative
Reviewers frequently report negative experiences with customer service, citing unresponsiveness, argumentative agents, or ineffective troubleshooting processes.R17R25R34R36
Employer Mandate mixed
A significant number of users are compelled to use the app due to employer requirements, often tied to health insurance benefits or financial incentives. This context shapes their experience, as many would not use it otherwise, but appreciate the rewards when it works.R8R16R27R32
Comprehensive Features positive
When the app functions, users appreciate its wide array of features for tracking various health aspects, including diet, exercise, sleep, and medical appointments, along with motivational content and rewards.R1R2R7R15

Who it's for

This app is for individuals whose employers offer it as part of a wellness program, especially those motivated by points and rewards for tracking health activities R2R15R44. It is not for users seeking a reliable, bug-free health tracker that consistently syncs with popular devices, as recent updates have severely compromised these functions R5R14R27R35.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, focusing on critical bugs and performance issues. While the lifetime rating is high, the recent sentiment indicates a significant decline in user experience, suggesting the app's trajectory is currently negative.

  1. [R2] 5/5 · US Personify Health app is so comprehensively health helpful!: Monitors movement of all kinds and anything you need to meet your healthcare goals including, diet with recipes tailored to the way you wish to eat, weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, sleep, rest and recovery, financial, exercise videos for any level, yearly eye exam, dental, well visit and much more and I get to earn points for it all

  9. [R20] 5/5 · US Best health App EVER: Love the variety and ease of navigation!
  10. [R130] 5/5 · US Simple, Effective, and keeps me consistent: I’ve been using the Personify app to track my daily habits, and it’s honestly been such a helpful tool for staying consistent. I love how simple and clean the layout is, it makes it easy to check in every day without feeling overwhelmed. It’s really helped me stay accountable, especially on days when motivation is low. Seeing my progress builds momentum
  11. [R1] 5/5 · US It’s full of great information on so many topics such as health, diversity, exercises and a lot more: I love it
  12. [R133] 4/5 · US Lots of good tips!: This app works pretty good in giving you tips and advice to be healthier. A big problem is the videos just go at one speed. It would be amazing if one could speed them up such as 2x speed. As it is, they go too slow, so I refuse to watch them.
  13. [R152] 5/5 · US Great app: Excellent tips
  14. [R5] 3/5 · US Sync function: Steps do not sync despite manual device synchronization
  15. [R11] 1/5 · US 6200 steps behind: The tracker app matches the tracker, but this useless app refuses to update.
  16. [R14] 2/5 · US Frustrated: After an update supposedly to “fix bugs” the app stops syncing with my Fitbit. This continues to be an issue after multiple updates. The app never accurately pull in my sleep score or active minutes 😡
  17. [R21] 1/5 · US connectivity issues: this app does not stay connected to the apple health app
  18. [R41] 3/5 · US When it works it’s great: The app frequently breaks with the last few app updates requiring an uninstall and reinstall to fix.
  19. [R42] 1/5 · US What is with all the issues: The app keeps crashing or not loading lately. There have been multiple updates in the last few weeks and it still isn’t working!
  20. [R47] 1/5 · US Not loading: The app lacks something and won’t load I have to delete it and re add it to my apps
  21. [R48] 1/5 · US App does not function: Literally nothing works?
  22. [R53] 3/5 · US Issues with logging in and steps don’t update: Log-in on app stopped working but it works when logging in with same credentials on website. Problem is that steps aren’t updating from my Apple Watch since the app doesn’t work.
  23. [R66] 2/5 · US Horrible Experiences: I have used this app for several years and have found it to be very inconsistent. I have to contact customer support at least twice a year. As of now my app is all but dead. I logged out because that’s what I was told to do. I also deleted the app and re-installed it several times and it won’t even let me log in now. It states my info is incorrect and I know I have the r
  24. [R67] 1/5 · US Broken!: They never test anything. Can’t login to app. Ever since they updated it worked for one day. Their support is a joke. I will be recommending to my company to look for other alternatives in the future. Anyone that uses it daily knows it’s always riddled with quirks and bugs.
  25. [R69] 5/5 · US Not working at all: 4/14/26 - The update that was released today fixed the mobile app login issue. 👍 4/13/26 - App was just blank inside. It showed the word Rewards on top but nothing else. I deleted the app and reinstalled. I can’t log in. It says please enter a valid username or password. When I click on forgot password, it says error. Something went wrong. Please try again. However, I can log
  26. [R17] 1/5 · US Horrible Customer Service: Customer service is terrible and the supervisor was argumentative when I had an issue.
  27. [R25] 1/5 · US Poor Customer Service: After several emails, I still have not received a response. The app is garbage and they’re not interested in fixing it.
  28. [R34] 1/5 · US Does Not Work Well With Any Major Platform: I have tried to get this to work with Apple Health, MyFitnessPal, Strava and more. Auto-syncing is unreliable, customer service is curt and dismissive, and I will be pushing my employer to find another app solution for our employee health program.
  29. [R36] 1/5 · US Doesn’t work: My job uses this app and it doesn’t work. I’ve been locked out for weeks and no way to access them besides their form online and no one responds. It also had a lot of glitches and limitations. It doesn’t record an accurate amount of steps from workouts that you’ve done.
  30. [R10] 1/5 · US App perf revision still needs: The client app responds slow and sometimes asynchronous result. Your execution does not apply to the score immediately. The support agent said I could use Desktop version. This is the known issue. It’s been years with this problem and reported a few times. The app has rooms to improve for those basic operations.
  31. [R27] 2/5 · US Can’t do the basics: Not sure how this app gets 4.8 stars. It doesn’t support the basic functionality of syncing with a relatively new Fitbit, issues initially connecting and it takes hours for data to sync. Feature to add steps manually doesn’t work. UX on the homescreen leaves a lot to be desired.
  32. [R150] 3/5 · US It’s okay: Been using this app for years because my employer ties my health insurance costs to points. UX is clunky. Too many features crowd the space and too many clicks to get where you need. App is often slow and buggy as well.
  33. [R176] 3/5 · US Running Slow: App has been running very slow lately…painful to use!
  34. [R30] 1/5 · US Frustrating!: Every time there is an update my stats stop syncing - and I lose the money I would have earned from my health insurance! Make the experience seamless rather than annoying!
  35. [R35] 1/5 · US As usual- Last update- iOS not working: App update done on 4/11/26 broke the app on IOS. This is a reoccurring problem. Developers need to resolve. Every time I log in I have to reconnect my heath apps. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Please fix it
  36. [R37] 1/5 · US Terrible App QC: Updates constantly break the app. 2 weeks ago no one could log into the app. It was down a few days until a fix was released. The app updated 2 days ago and now manual workout logs do not add points. Please test before you release new versions!
  37. [R49] 1/5 · US So buggy: Why is the app so buggy all the time??!! Literally have to update manually every week. It’s very frustrating and annoying.
  38. [R8] 1/5 · US Horrible: What a waste of time. Hard to use. Useless information. Only reason I use is corporate money contributions. All DEI people.
  39. [R16] 1/5 · US Terrible: Want to work out? Not here. Make you watch terrible videos for points to get a few bucks of your own health insurance money back via gift cards. Have to daily check in for points. 5 mile run 10 pts. Reading a daily note-get plenty of rest-20 pts. Wow sage advice. 15000 points for 15 bucks in a gift card. Terrible app, terrible optimization, terrible rewards. Gutter trash.
  40. [R32] 2/5 · US Only use this because I have to: My employer requires this to track activities. Some features are nice. Some of the app feels cobbled together. Some of the suggestions in the “Daily Cards” are dumb or even just wrong. Because I selected “womens issues” today’s card was about weaning from breast milk. I am 55! There is no way to provide feedback on some of these suggestions other than well, here.
  41. [R13] 2/5 · US Frustrating for Voiceover users: The latest updates have made completing daily tracking more difficult for Voiceover users by the way that they are laid out and by the apps persistent jumping back to the top of the list forcing me to have to repeatedly scroll through to find what needs attention. Also, I can find no way to print out the Biometric Screening form to take to my doctor for completion.
  42. [R94] 3/5 · US Log in issues: I used to love this app, now there is always an issue logging in. I can get just fine on the web. The point in the app is to make it easier to complete tasks and that’s not happening.
  43. [R44] 5/5 · US Great app: Great for keeping track of healthy habits & even creating new habits. Love that I earn rewards for things I do every day. (Walking, eating, sleeping, etc.)
  44. [R165] 5/5 · US Good idea: For folks who are complaining about challenges in redeeming your points from the personify store, just get a gift card and get the item outside the store. It’s not a big deal. It’s a positive way to stay healthy and get rewarded for good habits. It’s a win win.
