How much charge does 15 mins get

So the Cirqa has arrived, but there are two nagging doubts in my mind before I open it.

- Accuracy (But I'll let the reviews over the next fortnight determine that one)

- Charging (Which is the question for today).

With my Apple Watch, Fitbit Air or UH Ring Air 15 mins whilst showering is enough for me. There are no stats for the Cirqa and I'm wondering if 15 mins a day would be enough to keep it topped up?

If the charging requires conscious charging time, then it's a non-starter for me right away.

Access HR

So, should Livity be able to see the constant HR data from Fitbit?

Scenario is that I was working out with my AWU and Fitbit Air. AWU was using WorkOutDoors and when auto pausing didn’t record the data during the warm ups.

Google Health could see the HR drops throughout but when asking the Ai in Livity it said it didn’t have access to the data for the time range.

No HR in parts of WOD workout

So had a training session last night which I got the watch to monitor using WorkOutDoors.

Checking the HR afterwards there are significant gaps - is that caused by the app autopausing or is this simply a limitation of the watch sensor?

Which source is prioritised when AWU and Fitbit Air are being used

As above, I use the Fitbit Air and AWU (apart from the weekend when I wear a normal watch and the Air).

The question I have is which source is prioritised?

For sleep this morning, the Air had already reported sleep but Livity didn't process anything until the Apple Watch had reported sleep to Apple Health.

When I have a workout in the AWU, then Livity appears to prioritise AWU workouts over the Air (which is great - but is this by design)?

Now here is the real question - we know that the Air measures HR all the time, so does Livity use that over the less frequent HR from the AWU?

Can't change volume when adding fluids as food

So, I can scan fluids (a smoothie or similar) and it gives me a stock measurement (in my case a Naked Rainbow smoothie this morning was 100mL). However, there is no option to change the amount (I had 250mL) and when you go to edit all you see is weight in grammes).

When the portion is presented in a volume rather than a weight is there an ability to present the volume rather than weight? If not, then could you mimic what Bevel does (it allows you to quantify an amount of the volume - in Bevel the same item was 150mL so I could add 1.5 or the volume to approximate).

Something odd with steps

Have been checking through steps just now and this isn’t right

How does Livity work with data from Apple Watch and Fitbit Air?

As above, I’m trying to work out how Livity works with data from the Apple Watch and Fitbit Air.

It doesn’t seem to write workout data from the Air if there is a corresponding workout from the watch, but does write miles walked into Google health.

But it doesn’t write steps that much, so I’m trying to workout what it’s supposed to be doing 😀

We need a way to tell the app which source to use

I've been using the app since the Air launched, and in the whole (after a guardrail script) the AI experience has been generally OK. I use other apps for food logging etc, so not that fussed about that, but the main bugbear I have is that the app has all the data from the source, but then decides which one to use.

I really want the app to allow me to decide which source to prioritise for each metric, which will then make the app (and coach) experience much better. It would also have the benefit of training the algorithm better.

I've logged this as a suggestion in the app, so let's see where it goes

Apple Watch energy level widget

So, I’ve now returned from hols and have the Apple Watch back on my wrist (along with the Fitbit Air).

I’ve went to setup my widgets on the screen to replace the Bevel ones (I have recovery and energy bank on Bevel).

When I go to add the Energy level (which I think is the closest) it gives two options and neither is showing what’s on the iPhone app. For clarity, the iPhone widget works perfectly 😀

Any ideas?

Fitbit API workouts and ATL

Do workouts from the Fitbit API have an ATL rating? Today’s ones don’t but the ones before using HealthSync do

Switch off HealthSync now

If you’re using the Fitbit API, then I’d recommend switching the HealthSync sync now as I’ve seen that at least the activities still come in through HealthSync rather than Fitbit until you disable it. The activities at least are being written to HealthKit via Livity, so I’m assuming that everything else will be too if Livity sees it?

Food title default

So when you log a meal, it simply defaults to meal

I don’t know about most people but if you’re describing the meal first then this should be a decent default input to the title rather than “Meal”

How do you log a cup of coffee?

Just tried logging a cup of white coffee with sugar. In bevel it will log the correct amount of coffee and sugar with a level of water as well.

In Livity, it tries to log 240g of coffee and 4g of sugar. Is that the hydration element as well or 240g of coffee?

Is 3 days trial really enough?

So I'm playing with Livity and the Fitbit integration doesn't work yet and I've switched AI off and can't find a way to get it back on. The former means that the 3 days trial likely won't be enough, but why only 3 days and now 14 days?

How can I switch AI back on?

So I've been looking at the trial of Livity and switched AI off first but now want to switch it back on. Any ideas on how I do this?

Anyway to get the app to prioritise Apple Health data

So when I go for a run, I wear my Apple Watch and use WorkOutDoors to track the data. When I get back, the app logs the run in FitBit and shows the WOD entry as well but will not look at the WOD run details at all. Anyone know how to get it to prioritise WOD entries if there is something there?

If I use HealthSync to Bevel will I get duplicates in Google Health app?

So, I use Bevel and Google Health. If I use the HealthSync to sync data from the Air into Bevel will I end up getting duplicate data in Google health or is it just seen as Bevel data?
