AQ: Attention Quotient for iOS

** A Siri for the soul ** - Chronogram

In today's 24/7 digital world, improving your attention can be the crucial difference between success and failure at work and play.

You can't improve what you can't measure.

AQ is a new metric created to allow you to measure the level and quality of your attention using the free AQ app on Apple Watch.

Why attention matters?

* Training your attention may be the single most important life-skill you ever develop.

* Attention training is an essential aspect of mindfulness, which is clinically shown to enhance mental health, improve executive functioning, concentration and memory, reduce stress & burnout and improve physical health.

The Why & How of AQ:

* Attention is like a muscle. It can be strengthened through meditative "exercises"

* AQ: A new standard for the mindfulness industry

* AQ app: An easy tool for people to check their attention at different times and under different conditions. Also, meditators finally have a powerful means to track and improve their mindfulness practice.

Science behind the app:

* The AQ app measures attention through a combination of heart rate readings and their individual variations. We utilize a proprietary framework and AI technology with a standard neurological assessment protocol to provide you with a measure of your specific attentional state.

* The mathematical model used to calculate Attention Quotient (AQ) employs the proven methodology that is used to calculate Intelligence Quotient (IQ), the widely followed metric for measuring a persons intelligence. Similar to IQ, AQ is a measure of a persons own skill level in comparison to others.

How the app works?

* Take the test: Focus for two minutes with your eyes open and for two minutes with your eyes closed.

* See your AQ: Get your individual score and your percentile compared to others.

* The app uses Apple's HealthKit technology to get your heart rate and calculate your AQ.
