Your health data stays yours
Camera readings are processed on your device, so no photos or video are ever stored or uploaded. HeartBalance reads from Apple Health only with your permission, and when you sign in your daily summaries sync securely so you can pick up on any device. We never sell your data.
For wellness, not diagnosis. HeartBalance is designed for informational and wellness purposes and is not a medical device. Camera-based measurements are estimates and should not be used to diagnose or treat any condition. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional, and call your local emergency number if you think you’re having a medical emergency.
