Chart Types

Akeso includes 7 different chart types for you to choose from when designing your own custom charts and graphs.

Choose from… 

1. Column Charts
2. Line Charts
3. Area Charts
4. Pie Charts
5. Dumbbell Charts
6. Bubble Charts
7. Scatter Charts

 

1. Column Charts*

Create a new column chart to visualize selected health trackers as colored bars of varying heights. 

Each tracker or list item you choose is represented by a color-coded bar and corresponding Y-axis. You can choose to include up to 7 total bars across 3 tracker categories in a single chart.

The height of each bar along the Y-axis shows the numerical value for each variable. 

The position of the bar along the X-axis shows you how your data is grouped (e.g., by value or date).

Use this chart to identify trends across different health metrics and gain insights into how your tracked items change over time.

 

2. Line Charts*

Create a new line chart to easily visualize changes in multiple trackers over a set time period as color-coded lines. 

Each tracker or list item you choose is represented by a color-coded line and corresponding Y-axis. You can select to include up to 7 total lines across 3 tracker categories in a single chart.

The position of each data point along the X-axis shows when the entry was saved during your chosen time period – choose from all saved data, the current week, the last 7 days, the last 30 days, or enter a custom date range. 

The height of the data point along the Y-axis shows the numerical value for each variable. 

Use this chart to observe trends in your health data and track gradual progress over time.

 

3. Area Charts*

Create a new area chart to easily visualize changes in multiple trackers over a set time period as color-coded shaded areas.

Each tracker or list item you choose is displayed as a color-coded line and shaded area along the Y-axis. You can include up to 7 total lines and areas across 3 tracker categories in a single chart.

The position of each data point along the X-axis indicates when the entry was saved during your chosen time period – choose from all saved data, the current week, the last 7 days, the last 30 days, or enter a custom date range. 

The height and shading of each area along the Y-axis represent the numerical value for each tracker.

Use this chart to observe trends in your health data and visualize cumulative changes over time.

 

4. Pie Graphs*

Create a straightforward pie chart to visualize up to 7 of tracker list items as proportional pieces of a pie.

Each colored pie slice represents the frequency of a specific list item — such as a medication, supplement, symptom, or more — as a percentage of a whole (100%). 

Use this chart to quickly identify just how often a data point occurs in relation to others over your chosen time period – choose from all saved data, the current week, the last 7 days, the last 30 days, or enter a custom date range. 

With these insights, you can better understand the distribution of specific health data over time, making it easier to recognize patterns and track changes in your overall health profile.

 

4. Dumbbell Charts*

Available exclusively for heart rate data.

This easy-to-read dumbbell chart shows your Heart Rate Variability (HRV) readings for both “Active” (yellow) and “Rest” (purple) periods.

Each day within your selected time period (all saved data, current week, last 7 days, last 30 days, or custom date range) is represented along the X-axis, while the Y-axis shows your range of heart rate values.

Two dots, connected by a vertical line, represent your HRV for each time period: the top dot indicates your average “Active” HRV, while the bottom dot represents your average “Rest” HRV.

The distance between the dots highlights the variation in your HRV between periods of activity and rest.

6. Bubble Charts*

Available exclusively for the physical activity tracker. 

Use this bubble chart to quickly identify how the type and length of physical activity affects the intensity of your PEM (post-exertional malaise) symptoms. 

Each physical activity you chart is depicted by a different colored bubble. The size of the bubble corresponds to the PEM intensity reported after the activity, rated on a scale from 1-10.

A small bubble represents a physical activity that causes little PEM, whereas an activity with a large bubble causes notable symptoms. 

The position of the bubble along the X-axis shows when the activity happened during your chosen time period – choose from all saved data, the current week, the last 7 days, the last 30 days, or enter a custom date range. 

The height of the bubble along the Y-axis shows the length of the physical activity (in minutes).

7. Scatter Chart*

Available exclusively for blood pressure data. 

Use this scatter chart to quickly compare your saved blood pressure (BP) readings over time. 

Each saved BP reading within your selected time period (all saved data, current week, last 7 days, last 30 days, or custom date range) is represented by a single, colored dot. 

The position of each dot along the X-axis shows your diastolic pressure, while the height along the Y-axis shows your systolic pressure. 

Each dot is color-coded into one of four color-coded BP categories: Low (blue), Normal (green), Pre-high (yellow), and High (red).
