The update emphasises wellness management, introducing advanced tools for stress tracking and mindfulness, enabling users to better monitor and improve their overall wellbeing.

The Stress Management section has now been divided into two new pages. The first, Body Responses & Moods, displays metrics such as stress response minutes and the timing of those responses. The second, Stress Management Score, shows your daily or average score, assessing contributing factors such as activity and sleep. Users have also reported new insights, such as how meditation has an effect on heart rate levels.
