@Razar.M I mainly used mine to track my sleep, and I did find that helpful in some ways.
When it showed I had slept well, it actually made me feel good and like I was starting the day on the right foot. But I also noticed it wasn’t always accurate. There were times when the sleep data didn’t really match how I felt, so I started taking the numbers a little less seriously.
For me, it was useful as a general guide, but I wouldn’t completely rely on it.

@Craploushaystayr29 Thanks for sharing, Lizzie! I think that’s a really balanced way to look at it useful as a guide, but not something that should completely override how you actually feel.
It’s also interesting how a “good” sleep score can give us a little boost in the morning, even if the data isn’t always perfectly accurate. 😊

Hi everyone 👋
How's everyone doing today?
Our watches and rings can now tell us how many steps we've taken, how well we slept, our heart rate, stress levels, recovery score and even whether our body seems “ready” for the day.
Health trackers are becoming more sophisticated, and this week there's been a lot of attention around smart rings, fitness trackers and new health scores designed to help us understand our bodies better.
But imagine waking up feeling perfectly fine and then checking your device.
Your sleep score is poor. Your recovery score is low. Your watch says your stress level is high.
Do you suddenly start feeling less well simply because the numbers say so?
For some people, tracking health can be motivating and reassuring. For others, constantly checking numbers might create pressure or make them more anxious about their health.
💬 What do you think?

Do these devices help us listen to our bodies better or are we starting to trust the numbers more than how we actually feel?
