Your hair regrowth journey, tracked in one place. The Capillus App connects to your Capillus Red Light Therapy Cap over Bluetooth and gives you everything you need to stay consistent with your treatment, from session timers to progress photos. TREATMENT TRACKER Connect your cap via Bluetooth, start your 6-minute session, and let the app log it. Every completed session is automatically recorded in your weekly and monthly calendar, so you always know exactly where you stand. The recommended protocol is one session per day, and the app helps you stick to it. PROGRESS TRACKER Take high-quality progress photos from four different angles: crown, temples, and front hairline, and the app organizes them into albums automatically. Compare before-and-after photos side by side to see your own regrowth journey unfold over time. STAY ON TRACK Personalize your account settings, manage treatment reminders, and get hair care tips designed to help you get the most out of every session. BACKED BY FDA-CLEARED TECHNOLOGY Capillus laser caps use FDA-cleared, clinically studied red light therapy (low-level laser therapy) to support hair regrowth. The Capillus App works with Bluetooth-enabled Capillus devices to help you track your treatment and stay consistent. Learn more at capillus.com. Individual results may vary.

About

Zone2 Autopilot

Features
Read full description

The usual way to ride Zone 2 is a fixed power target, but fixed watts can't account for how your heart rate responds or drifts as you warm up and tire. Zone2 steers by heart rate instead. It adjusts your smart trainer's power in real time to help keep you inside the Zone 2 band you set - no FTP test, no workout to pick, no numbers to chase. Press start and pedal. As an early tester put it: "That was my best Zone 2 workout ever. No joke. I get distracted and usually end up way too high." What you get: - One-tap start after setup - Automatic trainer adjustments to help hold your saved heart-rate band - Live cadence with a spin-up nudge when you start to grind - Time inside your saved Zone 2 band to see how much of each ride stayed in range - Auto-pause and resume when you stop and start - Works with FTMS smart trainers that support Bluetooth ERG target-power control, plus Bluetooth heart-rate straps (developed and validated on a Wahoo KICKR and Polar H10) - Apple Health sync - No trainer yet?
