In plain terms: HAVYT helps you track how you feel, stay active, and notice your own patterns. It gives you information and structure — it does not give you medical care. HAVYT is not a doctor, and it never replaces yours. If something feels seriously wrong, contact a healthcare professional or emergency services, not the app.
🚨
Emergencies — HAVYT cannot recognise or respond to emergencies. If you need urgent help, call your local emergency number (112 anywhere in Spain and the EU) or seek urgent medical care.
an informational and educational app about movement, recovery, and everyday wellbeing;
a self-tracking tool — a structured diary for the things you choose to log (pain, stiffness, fatigue, sleep, mood, food, workouts, cycle, and more);
a wellness support companion that helps you notice trends in your own data and stay consistent with habits you and your healthcare team have chosen.
HAVYT is not:
a medical device within the meaning of the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR 2017/745). It is intended for general wellness, fitness and self-tracking purposes only;
a tool for diagnosis. Nothing in HAVYT identifies, confirms or rules out any disease or condition;
a tool for treatment, cure or prevention of any disease or condition;
a replacement for healthcare professionals — your doctor, rheumatologist, physiotherapist, dietitian, pharmacist, mental-health professional, or emergency services;
a clinical monitoring or alerting system. HAVYT does not watch over your health the way medical monitoring does, and it must never be relied on that way.
Everything in the app — scores, insights, plans, patterns, AI conversations — is general wellness information based on the data you provide. It is not medical advice, and no feature of HAVYT should be understood as making a medical claim.
2. Your healthcare team comes first
HAVYT is designed to sit alongside professional care, never in front of it.
Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping or changing: prescribed medication (including biologics, DMARDs, NSAIDs and pain medication), an exercise routine, your diet, supplements, or any treatment plan.
Never delay, ignore or discontinue professional medical advice because of something you read, saw or logged in HAVYT.
If HAVYT's suggestions ever seem to conflict with what your doctor, physiotherapist or dietitian has told you, follow your healthcare professional and feel free to tell us so we can improve (see Contact below).
HAVYT does not provide medication advice, dosing information, or drug-interaction checking of any kind. Medication logging in HAVYT is a simple yes/no diary you keep for yourself.
3. Emergencies — when to stop using the app and get help
HAVYT cannot recognise or respond to emergencies. It is not connected to any emergency service.
Contact your local emergency number immediately (112 anywhere in Spain and the EU) or seek urgent medical care if you experience, for example:
severe or rapidly worsening pain, or pain very different from anything familiar to you;
chest pain, pressure or tightness, or difficulty breathing;
fainting, sudden severe dizziness or confusion;
neurological symptoms such as sudden numbness, weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control, sudden vision changes, or trouble speaking;
signs of an acute injury (a suspected fracture, a joint that gives way, rapid swelling after an impact);
signs of a possible blood clot (thrombosis), such as one-sided leg swelling, warmth and pain, or sudden shortness of breath;
a severe allergic reaction (trouble breathing, swelling of the face or throat, widespread hives) — see also the Nutrition & Food Logging Disclaimer;
high fever together with other serious symptoms (e.g. severe headache, stiff neck, confusion, rash);
thoughts of harming yourself. You are not alone — please reach out to emergency services (112), a crisis line in your country, or someone you trust right away. HAVYT and its AI features are not equipped to help in a mental-health crisis.
This list gives examples; it is not complete. When in doubt, choose the professional, not the app.
4. Self-reported data and its limits
HAVYT works with data you enter and data imported from consumer devices you connect (see the Wearables & Connected Health Data Disclaimer). It does not use clinical measurements, laboratory results, medical imaging or medical-grade sensors. Everything HAVYT shows you is only as accurate and complete as the data behind it — and it can be wrong, incomplete or out of date.
5. Flare Outlook and readiness scores
HAVYT can show you a Flare Outlook and daily readiness guidance. Here is exactly what these are:
They are wellness estimates relative to your own baseline — they compare your recent logs, sleep and recovery signals with your own typical periods and describe whether things look "typical", "slightly elevated" or "elevated" for you.
They are not medical warnings, clinical risk scores, disease-activity measurements, or forecasts of a medical event. HAVYT does not and cannot know whether a flare will happen.
They must never be used to make decisions about medication, treatment or medical care. If you are worried about your symptoms or disease activity, talk to your healthcare professional — that conversation is exactly what these features are meant to support, not replace.
6. Red-flag notices (for example, eye symptoms)
If certain symptom combinations you log are ones that healthcare guidance generally treats as worth checking promptly (for example, a red, painful, light-sensitive eye), HAVYT may show you a notice suggesting you seek professional care soon.
These notices are safety pointers, not diagnoses. HAVYT does not determine what is causing your symptoms, does not name a condition as a conclusion, and cannot assess how serious your situation is. The notice exists for one reason: to encourage you not to wait when a professional look is the sensible next step. Whether or not HAVYT shows a notice, always trust your own sense that something is wrong and seek care. The absence of a notice never means everything is fine.
7. BASDAI self-tracking
HAVYT lets you fill in the BASDAI questionnaire — a publicly available self-assessment questionnaire used in the ankylosing spondylitis community — and computes its published score so you can track your own answers over time.
Your BASDAI entries in HAVYT are self-tracking of a public questionnaire, not a clinical assessment. HAVYT does not interpret your score medically, does not use it to diagnose or grade your disease, and does not base treatment suggestions on it. Your score can be a useful thing to bring to your rheumatologist — its meaning is for them to assess with you.
8. Cycle and women's health tracking
HAVYT's cycle tracking is a wellness diary for noticing how your cycle relates to how you feel. It is not:
a contraception method or contraceptive support of any kind;
a fertility-planning or fertility-diagnosis tool;
a way to detect, confirm or monitor pregnancy.
Do not use HAVYT's cycle features to prevent or achieve pregnancy or to make reproductive-health decisions. For contraception, fertility or pregnancy questions, please talk to a doctor or midwife.
9. AS Mode
AS Mode is a sensitivity setting, not a treatment. When enabled, HAVYT adapts its tone, pacing and exercise suggestions to be more cautious for people living with ankylosing spondylitis and similar chronic conditions — for example by preferring gentler progressions and taking your logged symptoms into account.
AS Mode does not treat, manage or alleviate ankylosing spondylitis or any condition. It does not replace rheumatological care, prescribed medication, physiotherapy or clinical monitoring. If you live with AS, please keep your regular appointments and treatment plan exactly as your care team has set them.
