I would like to see a feature or sensor that can accurately measure stress levels. Many individuals may resonate with this need. Currently, while some devices can display stress levels, they often fall short of providing comprehensive insights. However, it seems that third-party apps might have the capability to address this gap.
To assess stress levels effectively, it appears that a combination of heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate data is essential. One such app that claims to measure stress is Bevel. It might be worth exploring if you’re interested in tracking this dimension of your health. For those who are already utilizing these tools, the monthly subscription model offers ongoing insights, although I recall that it costs £50 annually.
Personally, I prefer to keep my smartwatch experience minimal, and I currently have an S10 in silver titan paired with a Milanese band. I am not looking to add another smartwatch to my collection at the moment. In discussing the usefulness of these tools, I am curious about how stress measurement can impact users’ behaviors. For instance, I enjoy monitoring various health metrics, including sleep, through my watch.
I wonder whether users find that the added insights motivate them to change their behaviors, habits, or routines in any meaningful way. I have just downloaded the Bevel app to try it out and would love to hear feedback from those who have used it.
