The useful part
We wanted something simpler, less annoying and more fun, that's where it started. Trackables turns the data your Apple Watch already collects — activity, sleep, steps, heart rate — into a clear, friendly, transparent interface. Totally free of charge, totally private, made by a small team of ex-Apple folks.
How it works
- Apple Health's "sleep score" isn't part of that data — only the raw input, like how many hours you slept, and how much time was spent in each sleep stage.
- When I bother to compare, Trackable's score is almost always similar to Apple's, but seldom exactly the same.
- I personally find that Trackable's sleep score corresponds better to how I feel I slept.
- (They might add a paid tier in the future, but core functionality will remain free.) I've been using Trackables for months and it's just a better dashboard to the stats I care about than the Health app itself.
Details worth keeping
