Health & Fitness

Redesigned dashboard surfaces your latest VO₂ max, rolling averages, and personal best with widgets that follow your selected range. VO₂ Max shows how much oxygen your body can absorb at peak effort. The redesigned dashboard puts the latest measurement, rolling averages, and your personal best in one view so you immediately see how training affects cardio fitness. NEW DASHBOARD - Trend cards highlight the 7-day average, any selected range, and your best value with percentage deltas. - The interactive chart responds to 1W, 2W, 1M, 3M, 1Y, or All filters and animates every new HealthKit sample. - Entry tiles list the test type, source, and timestamp so you can compare prediction and max-exercise tests. INSIGHTS & GUIDANCE - The info sheet matches your value with the correct age and sex bracket to explain whether it is poor, good, or superior. - Manual refresh, HealthKit warnings, and empty states keep permissions and sync issues obvious. - Trial countdown and subscription access stay a tap away. APPLE WATCH + WIDGETS - All complication families are supported, so your latest VO₂ max is available on every watch face. - iPhone Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets follow the dashboard range you selected. - The Widget Showcase walks you through pinning widgets or complications and previewing layouts. HOW VO₂ MAX IS CAPTURED 1. Start an outdoor walk or run with continuous heart-rate tracking for at least 20 minutes. 2. Keep the Workout app running with GPS enabled so Apple Watch can estimate the value. 3. Grant VO₂ Max access in the Health app so the dashboard, widgets, and complications can display the data. Requires Apple Watch Series 3 or later. VO₂ Max makes it easy to see if your cardio fitness plan is working today, over the last weeks, and all time.

Useful.

December simple and may only have one simple function but it does it well. I bought it because I wanted to track my V02 and while the apple health app does this already, I wanted a watch complication and I purchased this app to give me that functionality. At first it didn’t appear to work but it turned out I had to launch the watch app before the complication option appeared. To be clear this app does not compute VO2 max, it simply displays the data that apple calculates using your watch. To my surprise the app also sends me a push notification each time apple computes a new VO2 Max calculation which is a nice bonus I did not expect. Minus one star because I contacted the developer and they did not get back to me after 2 weeks.

I love this app. I consider vO2 max perhaps the best indicator of overall aerobic fitness, and this app allows me to see how, overall, I am doing over time. It’s basic, sure, but it’s totally reliable, I don’t have to start and stop, and it also shows where I stand in my age range. The only change I’d like is to show data for more/longer than only a year.

I cannot figure out what kind of exercise qualifies for rating. Even when I select “walking” in the Workout app, do 20’ miles and go for 30+ minutes, I don’t generate a VO2max reading. What is the app looking for?

It takes Apple’s measurement and puts it someplace useful. That’s all it claimed to do! And it’s really useful. Not sure what those other people were expecting.

Version 2.3 - HealthKit background delivery works reliably again, so VO₂ max notifications arrive even when the app stays closed. - Widgets now refresh as soon as new VO₂ data syncs, keeping them fully up to date.
