Complicated

Requires a very expensive license. Should have said at the start before i did settings.

Good app, 2 potential features to make it amazing

I use the iPhone accelerometer-based readiness measurement every morning. I’d love Apple Health integration and Shortcuts/App Intents support. Ideally I could trigger a readiness measurement from a Shortcut and automatically write the resulting HRV value to Apple Health without taking screenshots. But other than it does the job well and for free

Scores are completely off

I was using this app for about two weeks with the Apple Watch paired with the H10 polar strap, and the scores were completely opposite on how I felt.

I also was also trying Elite HRV and Sleep2. They were much more in sync with my readiness after good nights and bad night of sleep and stress.
