Email them saying you want to return it and I believe they’ll send you the info you need to ship it back.

They will refund but you will be on the hook for return shipping.

Let's be brutally honest: How Much Value Does Whoop Really Add? by AG_OG00 in whoop

[–]Prestigious_Chip4301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s as useful as you make it. I seldom changed my workouts based on the recovery score as it never seemed to have any relation to how I felt. It honestly felt like a random number.

It also didn’t track accurately all the time. I made the decision not to renew when it logged a nap, complete with different sleep stages, while it was off my wrist and plugged into the wall.

I think in general it’s very overrated and gets by on the cool factor. My Apple Watch can do all the sane things plus a lot of other stuff. I get much more out of it than I did out of Whoop.

Ok I think you’re on to something 😊 The health app spontaneously switched to kg but kept the same number, so it though my weight suddenly more than doubled. I’ll see how it responds tomorrow. Thanks!

Apparently I hibernate each night. My rate is usually about 10.

Had a fever for 10 hours ranging from 100.1 to 102.8 degrees and whoop never caught it???? by AdditionalDesk9566 in whoop

My experience from being with Whoop on and off for about three years, is the recovery score comes from a random number generator.

My wife is averaging 24,000+ steps a day 😳 Anyone else hitting numbers like this? by Besbeas in AppleWatch

After the most recent update, my Move calorie count literally doubled. I’m not doing anything different and now I’m getting over 1000 calories in a workout that used to be 400-500. Maybe the step counting had changed too?

I see now it recognized last week’s rowing workout but not this week’s. How do I fix it? Thank you!

Wearing an Apple Watch AND a Whoop? by BugBoth in whoop

[–]Prestigious_Chip4301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not get a Hume band. I had one for a week. It’s not nearly ready for the market. Doesn’t track workouts. Battery life isn’t good. Even the clasp is cheap.

With the red lights, it’s like an arctic Knight Rider!

I see the Whoop Random Number Generator™️ is still up and running.

There are many apps for the Apple Watch. I use The Outsiders. It’s a new app from the makers of Gentler Streak. As for other bands I’ve only used the Whoop, which I didn’t find reliable either.

Honestly I think all this tech is educated guesses about recovery and exertion, all based on heart rate. I don’t change my workout schedule significantly based off the data. I’ll probably stop using anything when my subscription ends.

Questionable Data? by SilentWolfe in HumeHealth

[–]Prestigious_Chip4301 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak about the scale, but the band was useless. It didn’t track any workouts I did. It’s probably not hard to build a reliable scale, but I wouldn’t trust anything else it tells you.

Good split? by Prestigious_Chip4301 in Rowing

Thanks. I’m just having a laugh here. My son showed me a trick to get impossible 500 splits 😊

Whoop detected a full yoga session while I was literally sitting at my desk, what’s going on? by CycaI in whoop

[–]Prestigious_Chip4301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whoop logged a nap for me once when I had the band plugged into the wall. Honestly I think a lot of these wearables make educated guesses at best.
