@antonikozelski thank you for the kind words! It was super fun to see @awadirathu side project from a couple years ago turn into a fully-fledged, accessible-everywhere, product!
Awesome launch, @awadirathu and the Guava team! The one-tap feature sounds like a real game changer for keeping track of health habits, especially when juggling multiple tasks. Health tracking can be a hassle, but making it effortless opens up so many possibilities for users to engage with their wellness. I'm particularly excited about the customizable options—“Cuddled with kittens” is a hilarious but totally valid logging type! 😄 Looking forward to seeing how the community uses Guava Tags and sharing my experiences. Keep up the fantastic work, @isabelstewart!
@dance17219 Can totally be a hassle, and feel like a chore. The Guava Tags make it super simple, and honestly, kind of fun. I feel satisfied when i tap the guava tag i put on my water bottle after I finish it to keep track of my hydration. I love the feedback loop! Looking forward to seeing your comments
Love the tag concept, I always find the idea of logging data manually and things quite boring, but this seems interesting. I'll check it out. Congrats on the launch @isabelstewart 🤠
hey @ali_eskandari! Yes, i've totally been there with logging fatigue. Guava tags make it fit into your day so much easier, because there isn't a disruption of "let me open my phone, find an app and log" and instead it's "let me tap the thing i'm currently using" and that's it! It's also great because with more data, Guava can discover more correlations for you, like coffee and mood, or sauna and sleep, etc.!
This will make tracking my health inputs so much easier. Pulling my phone out all the time and navigating to different apps to input food, water, meds, exercise gets to be a chore. This will make it much easier to be habitual about it and collect enough data to get insights.
@ztrafny Exactly mate! Hopefully the reduced friction will make it that much more sustainable to consistently log our health habits :)
I've been wanting something like this for a while. I went through a period where I tried to track everything but eventually gave up because it was too much work. This product seems like it would make doing so feasible.
Cool idea! NFC tags are great tech, and underutilized IMO. Excited to see the possibilities!
@cvdub Totally agree! there is so much opportunity with NFC tags. Excited for you to try the Guava Tags out!
I'm really impressed with Guava Tags! It’s great to see how @awadirathu turned a personal project into a practical tool for the community. The ability to log various activities with just a tap feels like a huge step forward in health tracking. Can't wait to see how it can transform my daily routine! The customizable options are a bonus too—who wouldn't want to track "Cuddled with kittens"? 😂 Excited to give this a shot and explore the insights it provides!
@ema_elisi Thank you for the comment! I think we'd all love to have the data on how different things impact our health (like cuddling with kittens or cold showers) but it's tedious to have to manually log it. Guava already syncs data from your wearable and medical devices, so Guava Tags are there to fill in the gaps for things that don't get tracked automatically by those devices. Please let us know if you have any feedback after using them!
Hey Thanks @zulkarnaim! It's been a super fun team project! We got to involve the community in the process, too, to make sure the Guava Tags were flexible in function enough to fit their lifestyle and needs! looking forward to you trying it out and giving feedback!
Awesome to see the journey of Guava Tags from a side project to a product! Great job, @awadirathu and the whole team! This one-tap feature is exactly what we need for seamless health tracking. Can't wait to try it out! 🏷️
Thank you @renchu_song, we hope you find them helpful! Please let us know if there are any suggestions you have after using them.
Hey Isabel,
The concept of using physical tags for health tracking is interesting. I'm curious about the longevity of these tags - how durable are they, and can they be easily replaced if damaged or lost?
Are there any plans to expand beyond health tracking to other areas of life?
Congrats on the launch!
hey @kyrylosilin!
The Guava Tags are pretty durable - they are water resistant work on metal, and so far, no one one the team has had any issues with them! Regarding expanding to other areas of life -- Guava Tags are pretty customizable so you can use them to track what's important to you, or things you're interested in Guava helping you find correlations with using Guava Insights. For example, members of our team use Guava Tags to log when they play video games, When they do yoga, When they do laundry, and yes, when they cuddle with kittens :)
@star_boat thanks for the support! let us know what you think of the guava tags 😊🎉
It's fascinating to see physical tags in a world that's increasingly digital. Tracking health is so important, and Guava looks really impressive. Congratulations to you @isabelstewart and your entire team, wishing you all the best on your journey ahead!
@shiva_tejasvi It is really cool to see the physical and digital worlds blend together with guava tags! Looking forward to you checking them out and providing feedback!
I like the idea of logging activities with a tap. Does it work with any type of phone?
@travis_hannah Yes! It works with any device with an NFC reader, which is the case with most phones nowadays.
@travis_hannah Guava tags will work with any phone that has background NFC scanning capabilities, which started being commonplace in new phones around 5-7 years ago, so most current devices will work.
Apple: iPhone XS and newer
Google: Pixel 2 and newer
Samsung: Galaxy S8 and newer
@akhil_e we hope so! outside of guava tags, you can actually take a picture to log your meals with guava, too, which makes it super convenient! You'll also be able to get insights on your health metrics, too, once there is enough data. for example, to see if a certain type of food is impacting sleep, or symptoms!
I’m wondering if these tags can be used on multiple items at the same time. This could be super useful for keeping track of different things.
@ismaila_adamu The tags are fully customizable, so you can set them up to track anything you want! We provide stickers to put on top of the tags to distinguish them from each other (e.g. water, meds, activity icons), but you can also put your own stickers on top to distinguish them too.
