Questions, answered.

Woah is an iOS app that turns the numbers from your wearable into one clear answer every morning: a recovery score from 0 to 100, and one honest message about what your body needs today. It reads your sleep, heart-rate variability, resting heart rate, breathing rate and activity from Apple Health, and does the interpretation for you.

Wearables are great at collecting data and bad at telling you what it means. You wake up to a dashboard of graphs and still don't know: should I train today or rest? Woah replaces the dashboard with a single score, a plain-language explanation of why, and concrete guidance for the day. No jargon, no guesswork.

Anyone who tracks their body and wants to act on the data: people who train, people fixing their sleep, people managing stress, and couples who want to understand each other's days. You need an iPhone (iOS 17 or later) and ideally a wearable that writes sleep to Apple Health.

Any device that syncs to Apple Health: Apple Watch, Garmin, Oura, Whoop, Polar, Fitbit and others. Woah reads from Apple Health, so there are no separate accounts or logins. If a night looks wrong, you can correct sleep, steps or stress manually, and if you have no wearable you can enter values by hand.

The score weighs four overnight signals: sleep is the biggest part (about half), then heart-rate variability compared with your own baseline (about a third), and smaller contributions from resting heart rate and breathing rate. On top of that, life adjusts the result: high self-reported stress, a declining HRV trend, or alcohol and nicotine the evening before can cap how high the score can go, and recent hard training is factored in.

The result lands in one of three zones: Ready (75 and up), Caution (50–74), Recover (below 50).

Because normal is personal. An HRV of 45 ms can be excellent for one person and low for another. Woah builds a rolling baseline from your own history and scores each morning against it, so the score tells you how you are doing relative to you.

By design. Woah locks the score when your night's data first arrives, so it is one stable answer for the day rather than a number that drifts as data trickles in. Tomorrow is a new score.

At 04:00, not midnight. Check the app late in the evening or just after midnight and today's score and guidance stay right where they were — you are still living that day. From 04:00 in the morning, Woah starts looking for the new night's sleep.

A block on the main screen that answers the day's practical questions directly from your data: Can I train today? How did I sleep? How much sleep am I behind? Should I drink tonight? Am I getting sick? The answers are computed from your numbers, never invented, and each one has a short AI comment behind the info icon that adds colour without ever contradicting the facts.

A running total of the sleep you have missed versus your personal sleep need over the last 14 nights, weighted so recent nights matter most. It answers "how far behind am I?" and comes with a 7-day trend so you can see whether you are catching up or sliding.

A live estimate of how much energy you have left at this moment, shown at the top of the Today live screen (the news icon on the main screen). You wake up charged by your night — the better the recovery score, the fuller the tank — and it drains through the day: every waking hour costs a little, movement and training cost more, a stressful day speeds the drain, and a nap charges some back. Tap the gauge to see the exact arithmetic behind the number. It is an estimate, not a measurement, and it never affects your recovery score.

Your long-term picture. While the recovery score is about last night, the Lifestyle status looks at your last 30 days across five pillars: sleep, recovery, activity, stress and habits. It is shown as a milestone, from Building to Steady, Balanced, Thriving and Flourishing, so you see the direction of a month, not the noise of a day.

Every morning you get your score, the why behind it, and AI guidance for the day. You can log daily habits (alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, food) and keep streaks, check the "Today, answered" block before decisions, follow the day on the Today live screen (steps, energy burned, today's workouts and your Tank — how much you have left right now, refreshed straight from Apple Health), get smart notifications (a morning plan, an afternoon check-in, a wind-down nudge at night), browse your history and trends, look back at any past day in the calendar, put your score and today's answers on your home screen with widgets (habits can be logged right from the widget), share a beautiful score card, and talk to your coach.

A conversation with Woah itself, in its own tab. The coach sees up to a year of your data, helps you set real goals, and builds you a concrete weekly plan every Sunday evening. It checks in mid-week, remembers what you tell it (an injury, a trip, a habit you're breaking), pulls up specific days on request and draws charts right in the chat. It is a wellness coach, not a doctor: it never diagnoses or gives medical advice.

You pair with your partner using a 6-character code, and each of you sees how the other slept and how ready their day is, without needing to ask, and without exposing anything you choose to keep private. The Us view adds insights about the two of you together. You control exactly what is shared, can pause sharing at any time, and can pair with more than one person (a partner, a friend, a training buddy).

The core of Woah is free, forever: the daily recovery score, the why behind it, daily AI guidance, "Today, answered", habit logging and streaks, smart notifications and share cards. No time limit, no ads.

Premium is one subscription that unlocks everything else: History and trends, the Lifestyle status, the AI coach with the weekly plan, the most capable AI model (Anthropic's Claude) for all daily content, and the full partner experience: pairing, the Us view and partner notifications.

Premium is a monthly or annual subscription (the annual plan is the better deal). New subscribers start with a free trial, and the exact trial length and local price are always shown in the app before anything is charged. Billing goes through your Apple ID, and you can cancel anytime in Settings, under Subscriptions. If you cancel, the free core keeps working.

Pairing is a Premium feature, and each person manages their own subscription. The free core is always available to both.

On your iPhone and in your own iCloud. Woah has no servers of its own and never sells data. Your settings, habits and score history sync to your private iCloud so they survive a new phone, and raw Apple Health data is never uploaded anywhere by Woah.

Only what it needs to write your content: your daily values and derived scores, never your name or identity. Coach conversations are stored only on your phone, they are never synced or uploaded beyond the AI call itself. If you use Apple's on-device AI mode, content is generated entirely on the phone.

A daily readiness snapshot: score, status and the signals you have chosen to share. You decide what is visible with the sharing mask, and you can pause sharing or unpair whenever you want. Your coach conversations are yours alone; a partner never sees them.

Yes. Delete the app and your local data goes with it; your iCloud copy can be removed from your iCloud settings, and unpairing removes your shared snapshot. The full details are in the privacy policy.

At minimum, sleep data in Apple Health, which usually means wearing your device at night. HRV and resting heart rate make the score meaningfully better. If HRV is missing, Woah asks for a quick 1-to-5 stress rating instead. If nothing has synced yet in the morning, Woah shows a waiting state and guides you through nudging your wearable's app to sync.

Yes. If the wearable misread a night, you can correct sleep, steps or stress for today or a past day, and Woah recalculates the score, the AI content and your Lifestyle status from the corrected values.

No. Woah is built on Apple Health and is iPhone-only.
