Spotted this teaser for new AI/ML app coming later this year: [image] Source: [image] The Optimized Stress - Recovery Visualization Wearable devices can help sports performance in a number of ways. They can help us understand how stressful a workout is, meaning how much physical work …

I don’t think so since it’s they only way you can officially use their product now.

[image] OreoCookie: I also had a look at their training plans: for all the (justified) criticism TR gets, I sometimes forget the level of the competition. I am fairly knowledgable and found myself overwhelmed by choice — not a great customer experience. It doesn’t seem to structure the training …

[image] FergusYL: I think the app is worth it for the plans and the coaching support, but their biggest priority really, really needs to be sorting out of their marketing communications. It’s quicker and easier than fixing the lack of integration, and will buy them the time they need to fix it. …

Haven’t reached out yet because I didn’t want to bother anyone over the holiday weekend, but I will Monday.

Framing this as an ‘app launch’ is where they’ve gone wrong, IMO. From what I can see, you don’t need an active subscription to get an OTS score provided you have your data flowing in from Garmin/Whoop/TP or wherever. The subscription is required to be able to choose a plan and add it to your calend…

Someone mentioned that you can use the Optimize app without subscribing. I downloaded it and this morning it has picked up my HRV, OTS (I assume…it’s zero, but I didn’t workout yesterday), and Load scores (through Garmin Connect), but the Sleep score shows up as yesterday, so today it’s blank on the…
