I’m not sure where this app gets its calculations from. I downloaded it more out of curiosity because I’m an advanced athlete and I know exactly how I’m feeling and when I need to take it easy and when I can push it. I always do think that HRV is a fairly decent approximation of how ready you are to train. So I thought hey let’s see if this actually works.

Bad news: it doesn’t. You would think it would be pretty easy app to design. Just look at your average HRV and see if you are below or above. Then give yourself a score. You can see average HRV for any period in the Apple health app. You can also see your latest HRV value. So just do the math and voila. But this app really doesn’t seem to capable of making that calculation, instead relying on smoothing or something. If you play with the two settings you can get the app to say completely different things, which is frankly laughable.

I get this is basically a beta, so I’ll give them a chance to improve but really how difficult is it to do that very simple calculation?

I have used this app since early versions and love it. Unfortunately the latest update is a terrible one. Hiding the basic settings (which were previously available for free) behind an in-app purchase is basically forcing users to pay for the app (so why market it as free….just charge for the app up front). I fully embrace developers, App Store and in-app purchases and will not have an issue paying for something that is useful to me but I disagree completely on moves like this from developers to try to force the user to pay specially if the functionality was provided for free before.

I really wanted to find something to track recovery. This is completely useless. You have to fiddle around with the smoothing and intensity to make it look how you want it. Which defeats the purpose. And it counts charging time as resting time. And it’s so slow at calculating. And the ring doesn’t update as quickly as the number. Obviously it has tons of bugs. Mine has been showing below .5 for several days. Really? Even after 3 days of sleep? Still 0.2? Glad I didn’t pay for this one.
