BalancePoint: Stress & HRV

Some mornings you're ready for anything. On others, everything feels like a lot. BalancePoint reads what your Apple Watch or Fitbit already saves to Apple Health, from overnight heart rate variability (HRV) to resting heart rate, sleep and workouts, and turns it into one daily Calm Score measured against your own usual range, not a stranger's average. Everything is worked out on your iPhone. No account, no ads, no analytics. Calm Score A 0–100 score each morning with a plain-English action word: Overloaded, Strained, Balanced, Calm or Thriving, plus vs Yesterday and vs Last Week. What's Behind It breaks it into Overnight HRV, Resting Heart Rate, Sleep and Yesterday's Effort, each against your own range. It's honest while it learns: Still Learning for your first 3 nights, then an Early Estimate that firms up over 30 days. Stress Load See your day hour by hour, 6 AM to midnight, as Low, Moderate or High against your own daytime range. Workouts and the 30 minutes after them are left out, because exercise isn't stress. The card shows how fresh your data is ("Last reading 2h ago"). If the Mood you log doesn't match your Stress Load, BalancePoint suggests what might be behind it, like yesterday's hard workout and a 5h 40m night. Energy An estimate of your energy through the day. It starts from this morning's Calm Score, dips for workouts, and gets a little back from naps, long calm stretches and breathing sessions. Breathe Paced breathing, 4 seconds in and 6 out, for 2, 5 or 10 minutes, with haptics and an optional soft tone on iPhone or Apple Watch. Does Breathe Help? compares your heart rate before and after sessions done with your Apple Watch on, and shows which time of day works best. Start from Control Center or the Action Button (iOS 18), the Quick Actions widget, or Siri: "Start Breathe in BalancePoint". Trends Last 7 Days, a Calm Score Calendar, 30-day Overnight HRV and Daytime HRV charts, and every day in your history. Tap a day for its hourly Stress Load. Insights Your Week compares the last 7 days with the 7 before, and Share Your Week turns it into an image. Calm Score by Weekday shows your Calmest Hour and Toughest Hour. Tag Patterns shows What Helped and What Drained, from tags like Caffeine, Alcohol, Hard Workout, Late Meal, Late Screens, Travel and Meditation. How Your Scores Work explains every number. Plan Today's Suggestion picks Rest, Light, Steady or Push from your Calm Score, and Today's Rhythm maps out an easy walk, a breathing reset and wind-down. Log Your Day keeps your tags in one place. Apple Watch Your Calm Score, what's behind it and your Stress Load on your wrist, plus tags and haptic Breathe. Complications put your Calm Score and Stress Load on your watch face. Also • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • Optional notifications: Morning Score, Morning Brief, Stress Alerts, Evening Check-In and Weekly Story • Customize Today, Week Starts On, and Light, Dark or System appearance • Optionally save finished breathing sessions to Apple Health as Mindful Minutes Works with Apple Watch and Fitbit BalancePoint reads Apple Health only, with no sign-in. Apple Watch gives overnight and daytime HRV. Fitbit works when its data is synced into Apple Health by a sync app such as Health Sync; Fitbit HRV arrives overnight only, so daytime Stress Load uses a heart-rate estimate. Each device keeps its own baseline. Requires iOS 17 or later; the Watch app needs watchOS 10 or later. Private by Design Your Health data stays on your iPhone and Apple Watch. No servers, no accounts, no analytics, no ads, and nothing is ever sold or shared. BalancePoint is for general wellness only. It is not a medical device and isn't intended to diagnose, treat or prevent any condition. Talk to a doctor about any health concerns.
