Your Normal

The Health app collects plenty of numbers and leaves them to you. Your Normal reads them and says, in plain words, what each one means. Free to download. Without a trial, the Today tab with your mood, adding a restriction and the Apple Watch app work. The free 10-day trial unlocks everything, and after it the Diary stays free too. The Values tab with trends and charts is part of the full version, a one-time purchase. IT COMPARES YOU WITH YOU For most values, how far you are from your own average matters more than any published norm. A resting heart rate of 58 means nothing until you know yours is usually 51. From ninety days the app works out your normal, the range a value usually stays in for you, and shows it in the overview together with the distance from your average. When a value stays outside your normal for three days or more, it says so, when it last happened and what your diary said then. IT SAYS WHEN IT DOES NOT KNOW When there are not enough days for a reliable comparison, it says so instead of comparing. Values nothing measures in Health are hidden but not concealed: the app tells you how many there are. IT ACCOUNTS FOR WHAT IS HAPPENING TO YOU After surgery or during illness you can enter a restriction. The app then stops judging what you cannot influence anyway, such as fewer steps after ankle surgery. For those values the personal average is counted only from the date of the procedure, so you are not compared with a time when you could still walk. While a restriction runs, the app shows how far you are from your level before it. HOW YOU FEEL, BESIDE THE NUMBERS One tap logs how you feel. A watch measures heart rate, not how you feel, and where the numbers and your own sense disagree is often more useful than either on its own. The diary can be filled in up to fourteen days back. ON YOUR WATCH Apple Watch shows the readiness score and the values worth a look, and logs how you feel with one tap. The iPhone does the reading and sends the watch only a finished summary. TRENDS A month, three months, six months or a year. Weight and walking keep a full year of history, because a single reading on the scales means little while the direction over a year means a lot. WHAT IT TRACKS Sleep and recovery: duration, deep sleep, REM, efficiency, resting heart rate, heart rate variability, respiratory rate, wrist temperature. Activity: steps, active energy, exercise time, stand time, distance, cardio fitness, walking heart rate. Metabolism: average glucose, time in range, variability, daily low, weight, BMI, body fat. Vitals: heart rate, blood oxygen. Workouts: type and length from the past three days. PRIVACY The app only reads from Health and never asks for permission to write. Health data is never stored or sent anywhere — it is loaded each time you open the app and stays in memory. No account, no network code of its own, no analytics; the App Store handles the trial and the purchase. The only things kept on the phone are what you enter yourself: your name, photo, a restriction and the mood diary. The iPhone sends the watch a short summary directly, over the system's encrypted channel. You can save the diary and the restriction to a file, but only when you tap to do so. The interface is available in English and Czech. DISCLAIMER This is not a medical device. It does not diagnose anything or recommend treatment; it only describes what measured numbers usually mean. If something is wrong, follow your doctor, not this app.
