Heads Up has invested over a million dollars into developing the new mobile app and we have completely rewritten the app from the ground up with the powerful native base code called Swift.
And today, we have officially released the new Heads Up iOS app for apple iPhones and iPads!!!
This mobile app has been a labor of love and we are proud to finally share it with the world!
The mobile app is a crucial part of our connected health platform. It allows users to track their health data, connect with their care team, and access information and resources on the go. It will even help people take control of their health, see the impact their lifestyle has on them and improve their outcomes like never before.
What’s new?
Improved integrations with Garmin and Withings. We can now support all the advanced metrics from these devices.
New integration with Strava to track Relative Effort (aka Suffer Score)
New list view for the dashboard metrics
Automatic dark/light mode based on the iOS settings
Improved messaging experience for users who are connected to their healthcare professionals
The latest version 5 of the app isn’t perfect yet, but the upgraded foundation has been engineered and implemented.
Right now, we still have some features to add in such as the photo food journal, messaging (now available!), fasting timer, and a couple integrations that are coming soon. If you use these features, don’t worry, they are still available on desktop and mobile browsers. (We will be adding these features in the next release.)
We have received wonderful feedback from early users and are looking forward to continuing improvement on the app based. If you have any suggestions, comments, or questions please don’t hesitate to reach out to us and let us know.
The iOS app has come a long way and we are truly grateful for your support!
A big shout out and thank you to our developers for making this dream come true.
If your clients’ are using the mobile iOS 4 app, please send them a message to let them know they can upgrade!
One of our leading performance sports coaches Dr. Kevin Sprouse, from Podium Sports, requested we build an integration with Strava; one of the world’s most popular and leading running and cycling apps.
Strava has many powerful features but the one Dr. Sprouse wanted was the infamous Relative Effort variable.
What is Strava’s Relative Effort?
Relative Effort measures how much cardiovascular work went into any activity that has heart rate data or Perceived Exertion
Why is it a powerful variable to measure?
A short and hard workout can require just as much effort as a long and leisurely one. Relative Effort makes it so you can compare the two!
Going even farther, different activity types are weighted so that your efforts can be compared across sports, and your values are personalized to your own heart rate zones. Now giving you the ability to compare with other athletes.
If your clients both ran their hardest 10K effort, their Relative Efforts would be similar even if their finishing times are different. Similarly, if one client rode a bike as hard as they could for the same amount of time, their Relative Effort would be comparable.
Bringing this data point gives you a comparable variable to assess one of the most important factors in sports performance, effort.
With Heads Up Professional, you can now import your clients Relative Effort variable from Strava to see how much effort they are putting in their training.
No more slackers or excuses!
With Heads Up, you can compare your athletes relative effort with their oura HRV and readiness, sleep metrics from oura, Garmin, Withings, Apple Health and dozens of more wearables and health apps.
Giving you context on performance like never before!
Example: Our VP of wearables Chuck Hazzard uses Strava’s Relative Effort & Oura’s AM Readiness to see his effort and recovery scores, helping him tune his training for peak performance.
Chuck typically only runs one long run 18+ miles on weekends, but you can see the one exception to that where he ran a tough mountain run on Saturday followed by a half marathon at race pace (good to run on tired legs from time to time).
If you have Heads Up ‘Signals’, seeing your team cohort analysis is even more helpful. The signals feature will allow you to run effort challenges, see your teams performance variables stacked against each other.
Create effort leaderboards. Identify team trends. Incentivize growth.
If you can’t improve what you don’t measure, isn’t it time to measure team effort?
On top of all this amazing technology, Heads Up Signals further unlocks the ability to create your own health and performance algorithms to run with your teams and clients.
The Strava integration is just one piece of the performance puzzle. Heads Up helps you put all the pieces together to unlock peak performance, health, and longevity.
Don’t just work harder, work smarter.
Get the cutting edge technology to unlock performance insights that help your athletes become champions.
Staying organized is important for every business to stay efficient, effective, and operate smoothly. It’s even more important for health based businesses!
That’s why many of our power users at Heads Up love the client file repository. Keeping digital unstructured files organized, labeled, and easy to access makes client consultations is a breeze.
In the file repository, easily organize
Images
Lab Tests
Meal Plans
Exercise Regiment
Health Protocols
AND MORE!
Easy access to secured health documents by your organization and patients.
Heads Up – making your life easier and your patients healthier.
To start uploading files, login to heads up health account and navigate to the client you want to upload files to, then click on files.
If you don’t have a Heads Up account yet, sign up for a Free Sprout Plan to test it out.
Let us know if you have any questions, comments, or compliments!
The D.U.T.C.H lab test is a Dried Urine Test For Comprehensive Hormones’.
It’s a premium full spectrum hormone test that performs better than saliva, serum, and 24 hour urine testing for a number of reasons.
Precision Analytical’s DUTCH testing methods go through a rigorous validation process to verify accuracy, recovery, and linearity and are one of the most accurate & precise techniques available for testing.
Patients collect just four or five dried urine samples over a 24-hour period. Dried samples are stable for several weeks making them convenient to ship worldwide.
DUTCH testing was designed to be optimally effective for most forms of hormone replacement therapy.
The best part, Heads Up supports DUTCH lab tests as part of the pdf import capability.
So you can import the results and map them into Heads Up like a flash of lightning!

There’s a ton of amazing integrative medicine health protocols out there.
Many of these protocols have been developed by talented practitioners over many years looking at thousands of patients and tens of thousands of lab test results.
In many cases, these same practitioners are happy to share their protocols with other integrative practitioners like yourself.
To help facilitate the sharing of high quality health protocols amongst practitioners in the Heads Up community, we’ve created the Community Templates library.
These templates are pre-configured and ready for you to import into your Heads Up account to deploy with your clients.
In addition to sharing high quality protocols, we will be adding other handy time saving templates such as:
Health coaching templates
Pre-built templates for health coaches to document client interactions, goals and progress reports
CPT code templates
Pre-built templates to easily bill for CPT codes facilitated by the Heads Up platform
Check out the video above for more information on how to start using Community Templates.
Even though Heads Up support direct API integration with 85% of US Patient Portals. Direct lab integration with Quest, LabCorp, Everlywell, and more.
Having a multi-dimensional perspective of your client’s health data is pivotal for health intelligence and achieving breakthroughs. This is why it’s important to Digitize PDF Lab Reports.

[If you have custom labs we don’t automatically parse, contact us, and let us know which ones you want custom coded. After we code them in, you will be able to parse all your patient’s PDF lab data automatically! Note: Custom pdf lab coding is a small one time fee.]
Instead of parsing through fragmented digital health data across multiple systems, now you can digitize your patient’s lab data quickly and easily so you can focus on helping them achieve greater results with their health.
