Keep in mind, the exact place to tap on your phone can vary by model. It's near the top for iPhones and often in the middle for Androids. You may also need to turn on NFC tag reading in your phone's settings.
Guava Tags are smart, NFC-enabled stickers that make health logging simple. Attach them to anything you want to log faster! For example, you can attach them to your medication bottles, yoga mat, food containers, your favorite water bottle, your journal, or anything else. With just a tap of your smartphone, you can log your health data and view trends over time.
Guava Tags work with any NFC-enabled devices, including iOS 14 and later on iPhones, and Android 5.0 and above on Android devices, for example:
If you're unsure, check your device specification to see if it supports NFC.
Guava Tags can be used for anything that is important for you to track for your health. Some of the most common uses include:
You can customize Guava Tags to fit your unique lifestyle and health needs. For instance, you can set up Guava Tags to discover insights about how effective your new compression socks are, how video games affect your sleep, or how salt intake affects your flare-ups.
Guava Tags allow you to log multiple items of the same category. For example, you can use the same Tag to log all of your morning meds or multiple symptoms that commonly co-occur.
Yes! Each person can choose what the Guava Tag logs for them. This means the same tag on the coffee machine can log a cup of coffee for you but a latte for someone else.
Yes! You can change what a Guava Tag logs for you at any time.
You can configure your Guava Tag to either tap to log immediately (e.g. 30 minutes of yoga or morning coffee) or have it ask you for specific information based on the entry type (e.g. mood rating).
Guava Tags are adhesive on the backside, so they should work on most hard surfaces, including slightly curved items like your water bottle or a food container.
You can always peel them off and re-stick them somewhere else, although they might lose some stickiness.
Pro-tip: If you’ve refilled a prescription with the same pill container, you can re-use the bottle cap with your Guava Tag to avoid re-sticking it. You can also change the medication type and dosage associated with the Tag if it’s a different prescription.
Here are some places you can put your Guava Tags:
Guava Tags are generally durable, but their longevity depends on how they’re used and wear and tear. For those not subjected to harsh conditions, they can potentially last years.
Yes, Guava Tags are water resistant - but we do not recommend long periods of exposure.
No batteries required! As long as your phone is on, you can tap the Tag.
Guava Tags do not store any of your information themselves, so even if you lose your Guava Tag or if someone else scans your Guava Tag, they wouldn’t know what the Tag was set for or any other information.
Make sure you don’t have any settings on your phone that disable NFC capabilities for the Guava app. You can also try re-installing the Guava app to see if that resolves the issue.
Your order should contain 10 Guava Tags, which are small, white tags with the Guava logo.
We also included some colored stickers with icons for you to optionally stick on top of your Guava Tags to differentiate or decorate them based on what you’re logging. Feel free to personalize your Guava Tag in other ways or use your own stickers. If you customize your Guava Tags with your own art, feel free to share them with the Guava team on social media!
Guava Tags are circular and 1 inch wide. They have about the same thickness as a postcard.
We have free worldwide shipping. Your Guava Tags come in a standard USPS First-Class letter, which should arrive within 1-5 business days in the US, and up to 2 weeks outside of the US. You’ll be notified when we mail your order.
