Apollo Neuro HRV: Stop Making these Mistakes

After using the Apollo Neuro for 2 years to improve mood and heart rate variability HRV, I share my best tips to help you get the most out of this product. I also include a review of the product for those who are entirely new to the Apollo Neuro.

This device to me is life changing. I calmer, sleep so good and just overall feeling well. I have long covid and ptsd. But i must say, this device is phenomenal.

I found your video while searching for reviews for the Apollo. It’s cost if significant for me and I have been doing a lot of research instead of just taking the leap. I really liked your video, it was very informative and brought up points I hadn’t heard in other reviews.

Here again to report back — Holy crap I just had the best nights sleep according to Oura since I bought the ring over 2 years ago. Highest HRV ever of 30, mine is usually 15-20. Plus over 20% deep sleep (1hr 30m) and I went in and out of deep all night, instead of just one 30m chunk at the start of sleep.

I tried 2 changes I learned from your video:

1) Wore Apollo round my neck all day and ran the “Rest and relax” mode repeatedly (after which it needed a partial charge before bed)

2) Utilized the Apollo “schedule” function to run the “sleep” mode all night for 8 hours. Usually I just activate Sleep mode for 2 hours when I get into bed, and one or two times during the night when I wake up, if I remember. Last night it was running constantly. I was afraid it would wake me up every time it started running again, but it didn’t.

I knew something was different when I woke up before even looking at Oura ring stats, because it took nearly two hours to get out of bed I was so groggy. Now mid-morning I’m calmer but more alert than usual, and way less tired. I have the same postviral Dysautonomia as you, so this is a significant change,

Of course it’s just one night! I’m doing the same again today and let’s see.

Thank you so much for the awesome tips!

I used mine for 30 days straight, 4-7 hours a day following the exact instructions direct from Apollo and saw zero results. I tracked all my metrics with both my Oura and Biostrap, exported the respective data out to Excel spreadsheets and compared the month before to the month of Apollo. I saw no significant increase/decreases in any metric. I will admit the "wake up" program works, as something vibrating fast on the body is hard to ignore and will make you feel more alert. I think the product may work better for someone with severe anxiety, or other debilitating health issues. I'm relatively "normal" so the product didn't have of a celling to improve me to.

So helpful. Thank you! I just got mine and I’m excited to use it.

I wish you would make a review of the sensate 2!

[SecondChanceThreads]

thanks for the video! Been trying to figure out how to best use this device. My biggest complaint is battery life is not great on the device.

Hey, I use Nurosym for 30 mins in the evenings and it's been helping a lot decided to try Apollo during the day while doing chores and it gave me a horrible insomnia. Is it a bad idea to combine both devices? One during the day and another during the evening?

How exactly wearing polar h10 shows continuous Hrv? Should it be paired with my Garmin and then look at reading while seated? My Hrv drops a lot after jiu-jitsu and takes 3 days or more of zone 2 etc with coherence breathing for it to start normalizing thank you

My Apollo Neuro broke after 13 month of use and they were not flexible regarding their 1 year warranty coverage. $400 is extremely expensive for what is essentially a disposable device.

Hi. Love your videos. What’s your favourite product for sleep? Specifically for falling back asleep after night waking? Thank you!!!

How did you attach the lanyard to the Apollo. I was thinking of using the clip and suspending it from a necklace of sorts. Where on your chest though? The thymus is about middle of the chest. Also what setting did you find best for meditation?

[myverycraftylife]

I’m going to try wearing it as a necklace! I was ready to get rid of this

[ryandillon]

Apollo vs Pulsetto, if you could only have one, which would you buy? To gain greater calm and better sleep

[wtfhappenedtome]

Really interesting, I had no idea you could wear Apollo around your neck. Can you share a link to the necklace is it something you bought on Amazon?

You hid it down your shirt pretty fast so I couldn’t see… have you removed the strap?

Also you mentioned on the relaxation mode not feeling relaxed at all, what happened for you?

I am only able to use it on relax mode during the day and sleep mode when I sleep. The other modes are way too stimulating and feel really unpleasant for me.

Any tips for someone who used it and got worse anxiety and caused insomnia? The first day I used it I had a great sleep and now I’m crashing late afternoon after a full day of anxiety and then having insomnia

[Eliminated]

It was really helping me! But now I can’t get it to connect, it keeps saying failed to connect and when I try and detach it it just says press the textured button to pair it and it does not pair! Pleaseee help!!!

[friedux]

Where did you get the necklace attachment for the Neuro?

[lowlandgrub]

Will I instantly know which vibration intensity increases HRV when I use a device to monitor my HRV? Or is it something I monitor over time to understand which settings are optimal? Sorry very new to this all! Thanks :))

How have you attached the necklace to the devise?
