Really awesome idea! Can't wait to see what comes of my data.

Really nice! I like the space and the concept of Sherbit. By the way, is the app storing the data locally in the device or at a server? Thanks Alex.
@darrenlee All of the data is stored locally and gets deleted when you delete the app.
@darrenlee Thanks Daren! Right now, all data is stored locally and not on a server. Eventually, we plan to offer storage on our servers and user accounts to keep everything synced. We'll keep you all updated as it becomes available! User account and server storage will always be optional -- we want you to be able to remain anonymous if you want to.
@braunshizzle All data is stored locally on the device. Eventually, we plan to offer storage on our servers and user accounts to keep everything synced. At that point, our goal is to to push insightful predictions and recommendations to people based on their data.
As a data scientist myself and a quantified self enthusiast I enjoy keeping track of the data that I produce. You always learn new stuff about yourself! I always though that I need to build a dashboard for my analysis and you guys did just that! congrats, awesome product!
I really like your product. It is on my main screen. I'm waiting for the widget, several lines per chart functionality and moves integration. I'm ready to pay for it (also if you could show some simple correlations between charts - like exist.io - just not as expensive as they do (6$ per month is too expensive)).
@ryfeus Thanks for the feedback! If you go to "Configure" > "Advanced", you'll be able to "enable complex visualizations" and compare up to three metrics instead of two. Moves integration is on the way!
Hey @Kavehs1, excellent app! Recently have become all about quantified self and this is easily the best app I've come across... looking forward to what you have planned for it! Cheers!
@isaac_latif_marshall Thanks - people tend to use Sherbit like a search engine, so we see a very diverse range of recipes. The most popular recipes tend to be social media related followed by health & fitness. I have seen a lot of people use the app to compare their average heart rate and weight, analyze their Facebook likes, and monitor their blood glucose level.
@cheeyuyanggg We are working on developing an Android client, but I don't have a confirmed timeline yet.
@seysconstantijn Definitely, you can sign up here: http://eepurl.com/b0YOeP . I will add it to our site this coming week.
Hi everyone! I am the CEO & Co-founder of Sherbit and I'd be happy to answer your questions and hear your thoughts.
@skywalker Not yet, currently the data is stored locally on the device. We will allow people to store their data on our servers in a future release.
Great app. When do you plan to launch it on Android ? And what could be your powerful asset to rise in the competition with other apps already ruling the market ?
@valdecarpentrie Thanks! We are actively working on developing an Android client, but are still in the early stages. In term of competition, our biggest asset is that we provide access to a wide ranges of services beyond health data. In the coming weeks we are adding email, calendar, and youtube data as examples. Additionally, Sherbit does not define how you should view your data, but instead we give you tools to analyze and compare it the best way you see fit.
Love it!! It would be awesome with some pre-cooked data recipes to get it started the right way. When I first launched the app I kinda just stumbled around for a bit before I got the data combinations started and understood them properly. Really like it, will follow dev 🤘🎉
@wille_dahlbo Thanks! We are actively working on improving the initial on-boarding experience, so that you can quickly find relevant recipes. In case you missed it, on the top right of the "create" screen, there is an book icon that will take you to a list of pre-made recipes.
Where is the data sent / stored? You mention your privacy policy and terms of service on your website, but I can't find links to them anywhere. As a staunch privacy pundit, knowing where my data goes and how it's being used is critical. I love the idea of "quantified self," but only if and when I know who's doing the quantification, where and how that data is securely stored, and what will be done with it. Can you advise?
@taylorbanks All data is stored locally and not on a server. Eventually, we plan to offer storage on our servers and user accounts to keep everything synced. User account and server storage will always be optional -- we want you to be able to remain anonymous if you want to. The links for the privacy policy were accidentally removed from the site during our recent redesign. We will add them back later today, in the meantime you can find it here: Privacy Policy: https://www.sherbit.io/privacy/ Terms of Use: https://www.sherbit.io/termsofuse/
Hey @Kavehs1, I just downloaded the app and got a message that the service is being discontinued starting Feb 1st. Are you releasing a new version instead or shutting down completely?
