Day 1: Download and Setup

Getting started with HealthLens is quick and easy. Here's what to do on day one:

  • Download HealthLens from the App Store
  • Connect Apple Health to import your existing health data
  • Complete your profile with basic information (age, weight, height)
  • Start your 7-day free trial to unlock all features
  • Allow notifications so you don't miss your morning summary

Day 2: Your First Biological Age Reading

Wake up to your first morning summary! At 7 AM, you'll receive a notification showing your biological age and how yesterday's habits affected you. Don't worry if the numbers seem off at first—HealthLens needs a few days to establish your baseline.

Today, focus on logging your meals using the AI-powered meal scanner. Just point your camera at your food, and HealthLens will automatically log nutrition information.

Day 3-5: Understanding Your Patterns

By day three, HealthLens starts identifying patterns in your health data. You'll begin to see:

  • Which nights of good sleep have the biggest impact on your biological age
  • How your activity levels throughout the day affect your age delta
  • The relationship between your meals and your biological age

Check your 7-day trend chart to visualize your progress. The AI will start providing personalized insights about what's working and what needs adjustment.

Day 6-7: Taking Action

Now that you understand your baseline, it's time to experiment! HealthLens provides daily habit recommendations tailored to your unique patterns. Try one small experiment each day:

  • Going to bed 30 minutes earlier
  • Adding a 15-minute walk after lunch
  • Reducing caffeine after 2 PM
  • Increasing your protein intake

Beyond Week One

After your first week, you'll have established a solid baseline and understand how HealthLens works. From here, focus on:

  • Maintaining daily tracking consistency
  • Building streaks for motivation
  • Joining community challenges for accountability
  • Exploring premium features like blood test analysis

Pro Tips for Success

  • Be consistent: Track every day to get the most accurate insights
  • Trust the process: Changes take time—track trends over weeks, not days
  • Experiment: Try one new habit at a time to isolate what works
  • Celebrate wins: Every negative age delta is a victory worth celebrating!
