Year Over Year reads 11 health metrics from Apple Health — including steps, active calories, walking & running distance, exercise minutes, and more — and compares your current period against the same period from the previous year. You can view comparisons by month (default), week, or quarter.

Yes. All health data stays on your device and is read directly from Apple Health. We do not collect, store, or share any of your health information.

Demo Mode lets you explore the app with sample data, without connecting to Apple Health. You can enable it during onboarding by tapping "Try Demo Mode," or toggle it on and off anytime in Settings.

It compares your health data for the current period (month, week, or quarter) against the same period from the previous year. For example, if it’s February 15th and you’re viewing monthly data, it compares your February 1–15 this year against last year’s February.

There are three view modes you can switch between using the dropdown at the top of the dashboard. "Per day" shows a daily average for the period. "Total" shows the raw cumulative value. "Projected" (Pro) extrapolates your current pace to estimate the full period total — answering "what am I on track for?"

Monthly (default) compares the current month vs. the same month last year. Weekly (Pro) compares the current week (Monday–Sunday) vs. the same week last year. Quarterly (Pro) compares the current quarter vs. the same quarter last year.

Full period compares your current data against the entire previous year’s period (e.g., all of last February). Period to date compares against only the same number of elapsed days from last year (e.g., February 1–15 last year if today is February 15). Full period is the default and pairs best with the "Per day" and "Projected" views.

Tap the sliders icon or the "Customize Metrics" button on the dashboard. You can drag to reorder, remove, or add metrics. Free users can display up to 5 metrics; Pro users can display all 11.

A metric shows 0 when there is no data available in Apple Health for the current period. Make sure the metric is being tracked by your device or a connected app, and that Year Over Year has permission to read it in Settings › Privacy & Security › Health.

Exercise minutes, Stand Hours, and VO2 Max require an Apple Watch to record data. Steps, Active Calories, Walking & Running Distance, Flights Climbed, and Cycling Distance can be tracked by your iPhone alone. Running, Workouts, and Workout Duration come from logged workout sessions.

Swipe horizontally on any metric’s chart to scrub through the data. A tooltip will appear showing the values for both years and the percentage change at that point. The chart shows 13 months (or 5 quarters) of history.

Insights are observations generated from your data — things like which metric improved the most, consistency streaks, projected totals, and milestone alerts. Tap the lightbulb icon on the dashboard to view them. Free users see the top insight; Pro users see all of them.

Go to Settings and scroll to the Card Layout section. You can choose between Default (large hero cards with charts), Efficient (compact two-row layout), or Condensed (minimal layout that fits more cards on screen).

Add the Year Over Year widget to your home screen and configure it by long-pressing. You can choose which metric to display, the view mode (Per day, Total, or Projected), time period, and comparison mode. The widget updates automatically when you open the app. If the widget shows "Open app to load data," open Year Over Year and switch to that time period to cache the data.

Go to Settings and tap on a theme swatch. You can choose System mode (follows your device’s light/dark setting) or manually select a specific theme. There are 13 themes total — 3 free and 10 premium.

Yes. The home screen widget automatically updates to match whichever theme you have selected in the app.

Pro unlocks weekly and quarterly time periods, the Projected view mode, 10 premium themes, unlimited metrics (free users can display up to 5), all Insights (free users see 1), and multi-period widget support.

Monthly comparisons with full period and period-to-date modes, Per day and Total view modes, 3 themes, 3 card layouts, up to 5 metrics, 1 Insight, Demo Mode, interactive chart scrubbing, and a home screen widget (monthly).
