Read full descriptionHide full description
That $30/month recovery wearable you've been considering? You already own something better. Supernormal turns your Apple Watch into a full recovery intelligence system. Seven proprietary algorithms built on decades of clinical research in HRV, sleep science, and circadian biology. A live energy budget that updates every hour. No additional device. No guesswork. Every morning you wake up with a Biological Reserve — a personalized energy budget built from how well you recovered overnight. Unlike a static morning score, it updates every hour. Supernormal tracks what you spend, what you earn back, and tells you exactly what to do next. Meet Norm. Your always-on biological intelligence. Watches your five body signals 24/7 and only speaks when something is worth knowing. Always watching. Never noise. Over 14 nights Supernormal builds a baseline that is entirely yours. Not population averages. Your normal. Every night more accurate. Every morning more personal. No account. No servers. Your health data never leaves your device. —— BIOLOGICAL RESERVE Unlike a static morning score, your Reserve depletes in real time as you train and move — and earns back when you rest. Overdraft today and tomorrow pays for it. NORM Merges notifications, insights, post-workout coaching, and body intelligence into one unified feed. No dashboards. Just Norm, speaking up when something matters. BIOLOGICAL SIGNAL CLASSIFIER Five signals. Six named states — adapting, nominal, sleep debt, accumulated fatigue, sustained stress, unusual body stress. Flags unusual patterns often 12-24 hours before you feel anything. RECOVERY SCORE HRV, resting heart rate, respiratory rate, and sleep quality into one personalized morning score. Your baseline. Your recovery. Not population averages. DAILY COACHING Every morning: a best move, a guardrail, and a preview of tomorrow. Smart notifications after workouts, when stress spikes, when to wind down. Not data. Decisions. SLEEP INTELLIGENCE Scored across duration, efficiency, deep sleep, and REM with running sleep debt tracking. 7 hours of broken sleep is not 7 hours of recovery. BIOLOGICAL PACE VO2 Max, HRV, resting heart rate, and deep sleep against age and sex-matched norms. One multiplier. 0.82x means your biology runs younger than your birth year. AUTONOMIC STRESS Live stress indicator based on HRV vs your morning baseline. Shifts green to amber in real time. STRAIN TRACKING Total cardiovascular load all day. Distinguishes sustained cardio from fragmented elevated heart rate. Not all strain is equal. DAILY JOURNAL Log in three taps. After 30 days Supernormal surfaces what your habits actually do to your recovery. INTELLIGENT NOTIFICATIONS 23+ smart alerts with individual cooldowns. Morning brief. Post-workout coaching. Sleep debt. Stress detected. Weekly report. PRIVACY FIRST No account. No servers. Health data never leaves your device. Optional iCloud sync for journal only. —— For Apple Watch owners who were about to buy an additional device. For anyone who's felt terrible after a good night's sleep and had no idea why. For people who want their health data to mean something. Normal is having the watch. This is Supernormal. —— IMPORTANT: Wellness app only. Not medical advice. Not diagnostic. Consult a healthcare provider before making health decisions. Apple Watch and Apple Health required. Core technology patent pending. Supernormal is designed and optimized for Apple Watch. It may work partially with other wearables that sync to Apple Health, but the full experience — especially HRV-based recovery scoring, Biological Radar, and Biological Pace — requires Apple Watch data.

Metrya turns your Apple Health and Apple Watch data into a clearer picture of your day: how you slept, how recovered you are, and how training fits in. Start with one morning view of sleep, HRV, recovery, stress and training, measured against your own baseline. No account or sign-up. Your health metrics are processed on your iPhone, not on Metrya servers. RECOVERY THAT STARTS WITH YOU Your daily Recovery score brings together HRV, resting heart rate and sleep on a 0–100 scale. See what moved your score, not just the number. Reserve estimates how your energy changes with activity and rest, while Sentinel highlights overnight readings outside your usual range. UNDERSTAND LAST NIGHT. PLAN TONIGHT. Explore sleep stages, overnight heart rate, sleep debt and consistency. Get a suggested bedtime based on your sleep needs and recent activity, so your sleep data helps you plan ahead. TRAIN WITH YOUR RECOVERY IN MIND See your training load, heart rate zones and workout trends alongside your recovery. Get guidance on today's training and an estimate of recovery time after demanding sessions. Log strength workouts with sets, reps, weights and a rest timer, then save your workout to Apple Health. Review past sessions and build on what you did last time. SEE STRESS AND HEALTH TRENDS IN CONTEXT Follow HRV, resting heart rate, VO2 max, body composition and blood pressure logs in one place. Stress insights compare your readings with your own range, helping you spot changes without treating every fluctuation as a problem. CONNECT YOUR HABITS WITH YOUR NUMBERS Track caffeine, hydration, supplements and wellness sessions such as sauna, cold plunges and meditation. Add check-ins for energy, mood and soreness. Explore patterns between what you log and how you sleep and recover. Patterns are not proof of cause and effect. ASK ABOUT YOUR DATA With the Pro AI Advisor, ask "How has my HRV changed this week?" or "What changed after that workout?" Get answers grounded in your own numbers, with context from the night, workout, chart or report you're viewing. Choose Apple Intelligence on supported devices, a supported on-device model, or your own API key for OpenAI, Anthropic or Google. No API key is needed for on-device AI. If you choose an external AI provider, your question and relevant health context are sent directly to that provider under its privacy policy. Provider charges may apply. YOUR PROGRESS, READY TO REVIEW See your week across sleep, recovery and activity. With Pro, export weekly and topic-specific PDF reports for yourself or your coach, including HRV, heart rate, workouts, VO2 max, body trends and blood pressure. Reports are generated on your iPhone. BUILT AROUND APPLE HEALTH Use Apple Watch or compatible devices and apps that write data to Apple Health, including Oura, WHOOP and Garmin. Available insights depend on the data each device shares and the permissions you grant. Keep key numbers close with the Apple Watch app, complications and iPhone widgets. START FREE.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Metrya at every 4 days against Supernormal's every 10 days. Metrya also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
