Your Apple Watch collects thousands of data points a day. Athlytic turns them into one clear answer: how ready you are, how hard to go, and how to recover.
RECOVERY: Every morning Athlytic reads your overnight HRV and resting heart rate against your own baseline and tells you how recovered you are. On Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4, Recovery uses Apple's new Recovery HRV.
EXERTION and TARGET EXERTION: Your cardiovascular load is tracked 24/7 and scored 0 to 10. Each day you get a Target Exertion range that fits your Recovery, so you know when to push and when to hold back.
WORKOUT SUGGESTIONS: Based on your target zone and the workouts you actually do, Athlytic suggests what to do today, for how long, and how hard. Build a structured workout, or import a plan from a screenshot, and send it to your Apple Watch with warm-up, repeats, rests, and cool-down.
ATHLYTIC AGE: One number for your fitness, built from your resting heart rate, VO2 max, sleep, body composition, steps, training minutes, and heart rate recovery. See which lever moves it most, then tap What if to try changes before you make them.
BATTERY and STRESS: Watch your energy fill and drain through the day, and see when your heart rate ran above your baseline so you know what stressed you.
TARGET SLEEP: A nightly sleep goal and target bedtime built from today's Recovery, Exertion, and sleep debt.
SLEEP: Sleep performance, stages, restorative sleep, sleep debt, consistency, latency, efficiency, heart rate dip, and overnight charts of HRV, heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood oxygen.
24/7 HEALTH MONITOR: HRV, resting heart rate, blood oxygen, respiratory rate, wrist temperature, and menstrual cycle, each checked against your normal range, with optional alerts when something is off.
JOURNAL: Log caffeine, alcohol, travel, illness, and dozens more, then see exactly how each one moves your Recovery and Sleep.
WORKOUTS: Live heart rate zones, Effort score, and intensity on your wrist. Afterward, a full breakdown with cardio fitness, heart rate recovery, splits, personal records, best efforts, and how the session compared with your typical one.
TRENDS: Recovery vs. Exertion coaching, training load and training load ratio, weekly activity goals, energy consumed and burned, heart rate recovery, and cardio fitness over time.
ASK ATHLYTIC and SIRI: Ask questions about your Recovery, Sleep, Stress, and workouts in plain language with Ask Athlytic, powered by Apple Intelligence. Or just ask Siri for your Recovery, Sleep, Training Status, planned workouts, and more, without opening the app.
24 IPHONE WIDGETS, 16 WATCH COMPLICATIONS: Recovery, Exertion, Sleep, Battery, Stress, Training Load, Net Energy, Macros, Steps, Cycle, Daily HRV and Heart Rate charts, and Lock Screen widgets for Recovery, Exertion, and Stress.
Notes:
• An Apple Watch is needed for most features, since HRV and resting heart rate come from the watch. Some third-party wearables that write HRV to Apple Health also work.
• Athlytic reads its data from the Health app and will ask permission for each data type it uses.

I was a Fitbit user for five years and spent $10 a month to access my HRV data, but I still couldn't figure out how to improve it. That all changed when I switched to the iPhone and stumbled upon Athlytic. Athlytic takes workout gamification to a whole new level. Each morning, I eagerly check my "readiness" to train, which indicates my heart's stress level and exercise capacity. What sets this app apart is its “exertion” section and “target exertion” feature. Using Athlytic, I quickly realized I wasn't pushing myself enough during workouts – my heart actually had a greater capacity to train than I initially thought. Knowing this has been incredibly motivating. Now, when I see that target exertion goal, I'm determined to reach it. Instead of trying to fit in an extra video game during my limited free time as a new parent, I make an effort to sneak in more exercise. In just two months of using Athlytic, I've made significant progress in improving my HRV, and I feel fantastic. I'm exercising more, establishing better sleep habits, and feeling great overall. On the negative side: the app's responsiveness could be smoother when navigating between pages, and the logo and name don’t fully do justice to just how great this app is, but that’s just my opinion. A huge thank you to Gary the app’s developer (who is pretty responsive via email). Athlytic has been a game changer in my life, and I can confidently say that the premium version is absolutely worth it.
Best Health + Fitness App I’ve Ever Used
Funkjunkeechic
I have used dozens of different health and fitness apps for tracking sleep, fitness, training readiness… you name it I’ve probably downloaded it. Every app seems to have a specific segment covered but nothing comprehensive. I’m in many Reddit health and fitness groups and they all mentioned how great this app is. I had to try it out. Let me tell you. Athlytic is the master of all apps. Everything you could possibly need all in one app. I look at it first thing in the morning to see my sleep, my Recovery on how to train for the day, details into my HRV, RHR, trends, menstrual cycle and how that cues my workouts, and tons more. I look at it throughout the day to see my Battery to guide me on when I have peak performance or if I should take an easier recovery day. I am serious about measuring my health and tracking, and I train 5-6 days a week. I log food, sleep via my Apple Watch, weight, etc. Everything is put together in a meaningful and well designed interface. The devs and constantly making updates and improvements and respond when you have questions/comments/requests. I would be lost without Athlytic!! It is the most comprehensive and informative app I’ve used to measure, guide and coach my fitness. There are devices and subscriptions that don’t do nearly the value of what Athlytic offers for only $30/yr. Look no further. Athlytic is all you need!
Awesome.

Athlytic has the metrics dialed right in. I’m currently ramping up my training regimen in time for summer and have been using it to help “coach” me on how hard or easy to push myself on a 5-day-on, 2-day-off exercise regimen. Every day where I feel well-rested and ready to hit the gym or track, the app reflects that and recommends I train that day, and even gives suggestions on which activities I could do to help reach the exertion level it’s looking for, and every day I’ve felt underslept or recovering from the day before, the app reflects that as well, and recommends I take the day off. I’ve only been using it for about 6 weeks at this point but it has quickly earned its place in my little suite of exercise apps and I already find it indispensable. 10/10 recommend.* Update as of November 2023: The app continues to be improved, new features added that are actually beneficial and UI elements that are well-designed. Can’t recommend this app enough for any athlete, especially if you have an Apple Watch, as it “unlocks” some truly useful functions of the watch that Apple hasn’t implemented into their own apps very well. I’ve literally used this app to help me decide when I can return to work after being sick because it has such accurate readings of my respiratory rate, heart rate variable, resting heart rate, and wrist temperature. Please download and support the developer. S+ Rank app.
Fantastic🥳

I very rarely have written reviews on apps, but I had to in this case. I signed up for the paid version last August, and since then this has become the first app I check every morning to see my recovery score, log my items from the day before, and compare with how I feel. It’s certainly modified my behaviors to try to improve my recovery and sleep performance, and the data from workouts using my Apple Watch is summarized in a fantastic and easy to understand way. My wife was hesitant at first, but now she is also obsessed with the app and uses it daily as well. The developer is responsive if you have any issues, and he’s consistently released new features and updates that have improved the overall experience. Widgets on iOS are great, and I’ve got a couple on my lock screen, and then the widget panel just off my Home Screen. I had debated Whoop for a long time, but couldn’t get past the cost of switching and the monthly membership model. In the end I decided I loved my Apple Watch and Athlytic provides me with essentially all the same information at a much more reasonable price point. I can’t praise this app and developer enough, thanks for the great experience!
Improvements:
Complete redesign of the watch app from the ground up!
Detail screens now use both sides of iPhone Duo's open screen.
Health Alert notifications for Wrist Temperature should fire more reliably.
Cycle-aware wrist temperature: if you track your cycle, a mildly raised wrist temperature in your luteal phase or during pregnancy no longer triggers an alert, since that rise is expected. Clearly elevated readings still alert.
Health Summary widget: the "Very Elevated" and "Very Low" labels now read "Well Above" and "Well Below" your usual range, so the number shown matches what it means.
Improved workout type recognition, including Multisport, Cricket, Martial Arts, and Underwater Diving, and fixed the Water Sports icon.
Planning a workout by distance now estimates its Exertion from your recent workouts, so a 3-mile easy run counts without setting a pace. Distances also use a picker like time does, and planned workouts show their distance.
Added support for chart selection in Sleep Quality heart rate, HRV etc. (e.g. you can tap the chart to see the value).
Bug Fixes:
Improved Apple Watch workout stability and reduced memory usage in the live heart rate chart.
Training Adaptation HRV Stability and Baseline now shows the chart after 37 days of Recovery HRV from Series 12 and Ultra 4 watches.
Data export:
Past Recovery scores now stay the same from one export to the next and match what the app shows.
Exports now include HRV and resting heart rate for days going forward.
Journal Insights: when the analysis can't be generated, it now tells you why: Apple Intelligence is off, still getting ready, not supported on this iPhone, or a retry is needed.
Fixed an issue that could cause a crash or incorrect tag changes when quickly adding or removing Journal tags.
A few other minor bug fixes and improvements.
