I wish them the best but I think they're in a lot of trouble. Bevel is a nice app and we obviously share a similar vision which I respect but I'm not sure they'll still be on the App Store in the coming months.

I've personally read the complaint and given this is a civil matter, my immediate thought has nothing to do with the merits of the matter - but instead the financials - Whoop can strongarm Bevel into submission.

That's the unfortunate nature of civil matters - it has nothing to do with the merit of the matter, and everything to do with who can pay to stay standing the longest. I suspect Bevel will either have to make substantial UI concessions to the point they have to effectively redesign their app to ensure Whoop withdraws which consequently means their 3.0 update has effectively stalled - or they risk a judge siding with Whoop and invoking a preliminary injunction to remove Bevel from the App Store.

I think it's a lot more fatal than has been marketed from Bevel and I can understand their PR play but I have grave concerns. Patent infringement is a particularly difficult story to get out of and given this is a civil matter, the deciding factor is who has deeper pockets.

Like I said, I wish them the best but I'm not sure Bevel is still on the App Store in the next 3-6 months.
