I was a bit tired of fitness apps overwhelming me with metrics, so I built a minimal Zone 2 tracker for Apple Watch

Been doing more Zone 2 training recently and realized most fitness apps make it surprisingly hard to focus on the only thing I actually care about during runs/walks: staying in Zone 2 consistently.

Everything felt overloaded with recovery scores, readiness metrcis and dozens of charts I never look at.

So I started building a small app for iPhone + Apple Watch focused entirely around:

  • Tracking daily and weekly Zone 2 minutes
  • Customisable HR ranges
  • Quick glanceability and audio cues during workouts

A few things I wanted personally:

  • No account/login required
  • Uses Apple Health directly
  • Minimal UI that doesn’t feel distracting
  • Beautiful home screen widgets which make me want to look at it.

Still early and looking for people who are into Zone 2 training to test it and give honest feedback.
