Health & Fitness tracker–Bevel +12

This being the first day of public release I wanted to set my expectations low. So far from what I am seeing it is fantastic. There was no need for low expectations as this app has hit the ground running right from the start. I did find one not big bug but so far a really nice experience. If you are familiar with Whoop, Athlytic or Garmin this will feel similar but it does well with offering a fresh way of looking at your data.

I really like that it already supports updating the widgets on the desktop of my Mac. I have apps the I have used for years that still have not started with that feature.

So far I have not come to a conclusion that the subscription price is fair for what you are getting. I am leaning to yeah it’s fair, there is nice value here. I will admit I am not someone who is bothered much by subscriptions if I am likening the product. I never go right to the full year. I always go monthly for a month or two and if after that I am using the app regularly I pay for the year. My guess is after a month I will just do the year as I have been in the app multiple times today.

Thank you for the kind words! We're glad that you are enjoying the app. We're working hard to improve the app even further :)

I have been a long time user of Oura, however as the life of my battery started to decline (down to 2 days) I went in search of a replacement. I have been using Bevel for a couple of months now and can’t imagine living without it.

For the way I use both apps (there are a lot of features that I don’t use regularly), following is quick compare/contrast:

- For REM and Deep sleep the two apps are directionally similar. Not sure which one is more accurate.
- There is a LOT more movement in the Bevel sleep score, which I like. My Oura sleep score tends to be in a narrow range which makes it less useful.
- There is even more variability with the Bevel Recover score vs. Oura’s Readiness score. I find that Bevel is way more in line with how I feel.
- Bevel has a Strain recommendation (how hard you should work out that day) based on your sleep/recover, which I find very useful. This has helped to reduce the amount I over train.
- Bevel tracks your stress throughout the day. I consider myself having very low stress however I have learned that the stress from some of my workouts stays with me throughout the day.
- My wife got sick and all of the Bevel scores I have mentioned above enabled her to be smart about her recovery and getting back to training.

With Oura I really like the Heart Rate graph and the HRV graph, neither of which currently exist within Bevel (though they are on the feature request list).

We truly appreciate your detailed feedback, and we're thrilled to hear Bevel has become an essential part of your daily routine! If you have any feedback, please feel free to post them on https://feedback.bevel.health/

I was originally introduced to this app a few months ago as a beta tester. I have been using it daily since then and always make it my go-to app when I wake up in the morning. I have used competitor apps in the past, and this one is way easier to understand and has a clean look. I love that it syncs with Apple Health and doesn’t need to store information on external servers. I changed the setting from RMSSD (default) to SDNN and found it to reflect more accurately to how I feel. This app is new and growing quickly. So checkout their website to get a peek at what’s coming. The monthly fee is a bit more than competitors, but the annual fee is worth it!
