Biometrics
WellBefore uses different biometric data to train a model that can predict your symptoms. This is usually collected from smart watches or phones, but devices that can be integrated with Apple Health or Android’s Health Connect are supported. The most important data points are heart rate, blood oxygen, and steps. WellBefore uses this data to learn about your body and how it reacts to different situations. It is recommended to have a smartwatch with heart rate monitoring, as it will provide consistent and automatic data collection.
