I think that, uh, there it is.

Requires a subscription so its garbage. Don’t keep supporting subscription model companies

They extrapolate all kinds of data from a single datapoint (heart rate) using a sensor that’s far from optimal. Think “I can tell you the weather forecast based on your heating system function” except I don’t check the system, I check the air temperature in the house. The first past (forecast) is a wild stretch, the second part (sensor placement) is a silly choice.

But the marketing is slick!

Most health trackers are dumb less you’re an athlete, and if so get a Garmin.

They are notoriously bad at actually tracking your stats and are often designed to lie to you to make you feel good about yourself.

I tried it and the analytics are kind of interesting but I think if you pay attention it’s pretty easy to tell if you’re rested or not. And it wasn’t particularly good for weightlifting, It’s more geared towards running and maybe cycling. It’s absolutely not worth the subscription price
