First, I have been cold plunging and winter swimming for 4+ yrs. During that time, taking pictures of water/air temperatures and writing journals etc. Volumenous pictures and notebooks. Now it's all on my wrist. Definitely a game changer. Also, recently I contacted the creator and they promptly got back to me with an answer to my question quickly. I have highly recommended this app to my friends and other cold water plungers. My only complaint is where was it 4years ago!!! Thank you for the app.

Thank you for the review! Amazing that you've been doing cold plunging and winter swimming over 4 years! We should add a photo log to the activities :) Thank you for the feedback!
General Comments - Sauna Data Needs Help
DG2020!
The app is good for cold plunging. Nicely integrated with my Apple Watch. On the sauna centric data the app is remarkably lacking. The Apple Watch cannot withstand the heat (at higher temperature levels) of a sauna. All the sauna data is therefore entered manually. Access to one’s heart rate as example is not possible. Manual entering of the sauna data is not efficient. For example, the temperature wheel only goes from 0 degrees to say 194 degrees in one direction from low to high) so between this and not being able to leverage your past sessions inputting values (say of session time and temp) makes the UI unnecessarily cumbersome. Another app has a small sensor that can be taken into the sauna and it tracks some variables? Also I don’t care for all the community/shared activity functionality wrt my cold plunging - I wish there was a way to mute that. Expensive app for simply being a partially integrated tracker for cold plunging.

Hello! Thanks for this detailed feedback! Our latest update now solves for each point mentioned:1. Sauna temperature on manual activity keeping your previous time making it easier to add quickly2. You can now turn off community in the app, which will just give the solo experience of the app (which is quite nice, thanks for sharing)More updates on the way!
Go Polar Exactly What I need

I’ve been using a notepad and/or Apple notes to track my cold + heat exposures for the past couple of years. Go Polar read my mind and with this app makes it so easy with a couple clicks to track this data and as a bonus provides insights on where I can access a sauna or cold plunge near me. It does exactly what I expected and more! Great job to the go polar team - looking forward to what’s next.

I used to track my cold or heat exposure via Apple Notes but GoPolar makes my life 10 times easier. I know don’t have to go back and manually aggregate my time or get annoyed when I forget to log it in my notes. When I hit the ice bath or sauna I log it and can see how it’s helped my recovery over the past weeks. Highly recommend.
- Fixed an issue that could cause syncing problems with watch activities
- Improved health data tracking reliability for heart rate and active energy
- General performance improvements and bug fixes
