With your explicit permission, Recovered may read certain Health Data from Apple Health (iOS) and Health Connect (Android). Access is
read‑only; we do not write or modify health records in these platforms.
We may access the following categories, depending on what you approve:
Heart Rate Variability (HRV)What we read: HRV values and HRV history available via Apple Health or Health Connect.
Why we read it:
- to calculate your daily recovery score and readiness indicator;
to build HRV‑based trends over time so you can see how your recovery responds to training, rest, and routines;
- to help indicate whether your body is better prepared for higher intensity or needs more rest.
Resting Heart Rate (RHR)What we read: resting heart rate values and their history, where exposed by Apple Health or Health Connect.
Why we read it:
- to use RHR together with HRV as an indicator of fatigue, stress load, or potential overreaching;
- to refine and contextualize your recovery score and readiness insights.
Sleep DataWhat we read: sleep duration and sleep sessions (such as start/end times and total duration) available in Apple Health or Health Connect.
Why we read it:
- to understand whether reduced recovery may be related to insufficient or inconsistent sleep;
- to display simple trends (for example, recent sleep vs. readiness) and make non‑medical recovery suggestions.
Activity and Training DataWhat we read: basic information about activity or workout sessions (for example, presence of a workout, duration, and similar high‑level metrics) where provided by Apple Health or Health Connect.
Why we read it:
- to understand your recent training load at a high level;
- to help explain changes in your recovery score over time (for example, heavy training days vs. rest days).
Menstrual Cycle Data (for users who enable it)What we read: cycle‑related data such as period days, flow information, and cycle phases, where made available via Apple Health or Health Connect and where you specifically grant permission.
Why we read it:
- to adjust recovery insights and training suggestions in line with your current cycle phase;
- to provide more context around changes in readiness and perceived fatigue throughout the cycle.
Historical Health Data (History Permissions)What we read: historical records of the above health metrics (HRV, RHR, sleep, and activity), as exposed via Health Connect or Apple Health, over a relevant past period.
Why we read it:
- to compute long‑term readiness and recovery trends, rather than just day‑to‑day noise;
- to allow you to see how your readiness evolves over weeks and months;
- to help identify patterns between routines, training load, and recovery.
Important points about Health Data- Access to each type of Health Data requires your explicit consent through Apple Health or Health Connect permission prompts.
- You can use some parts of the app without connecting Health Data, but certain features (such as precise recovery scores) may be limited.
- We do not use Health Data for advertising, marketing profiles, insurance decisions, or employment decisions.
- We do not sell Health Data or share it with third parties for their own independent use.
