  • Daily readiness: the readiness card inside the Body Energy view, with Training Readiness, HRV status, stress context, and adaptive guidance.
  • Body Energy: selected-day energy timeline, calibration, confidence, dashboard support, and widgets.
  • Heart rate recovery: how far your heart rate falls after hard effort, measured from a guided test during recording.

Logging, Import, And Recording

  • Manual entry of metrics: explicit user-entered records written back to Health Connect.

  • Recording of activity: GPS and repetition-oriented activity recording before saving to Health Connect.
  • Activity and training plans: planned workouts, activity setup defaults, favorite activities, repetitions, sets, and review flows.
  • Bluetooth LE sensors: supported heart-rate, cadence, power, and footpod sensors during activity recording.
  • Smartwatches: experimental Garmin pairing and sync, with no vendor account and no network step — or keep using Gadgetbridge or a vendor app and let OpenVitals read what they write.

  • FIT files import: Settings Data Importers support for FIT activity, course, and workout files.
  • Offline maps support: PMTiles or Mapsforge packs for local activity maps.

  • Sync with another phone: copy Health Connect records straight to a nearby phone over Bluetooth, with no account and no server.
  • Apple Health import: supported Apple Health export records written into Health Connect.
  • Preloaded beverage nutrition reference: imported caffeine beverage presets, nutrition families, common serving values, and source links.
