When will I start receiving insights?
When Do Insights Become Available?
To start seeing insights on the Lasting Change app, you need to use the app consistently for a few days. Specifically, the app requires at least 3 days where a factor is present and 3 days where that factor is absent. This allows the app to gather sufficient data to generate meaningful insights. Typically, you can expect to start seeing insights within the first week of regular use.
How Do Insights Work?
Insights are generated based on the data you input about your activities and habits. The app analyzes this data to provide you with metrics and trends that help you understand the impact of different factors on your well-being. Here’s a breakdown of how you can use these insights:
-
