What it is

Watch data without retyping

If you wear a smartwatch, there’s no point retyping what it already measured. With your permission NEXT8 connects to Apple Health (iOS) or Health Connect (Android) and reads only what it needs for readiness and load.

How it works

Reads, pre-fills, you confirm

In the morning the app pulls in sleep and resting heart rate and adds the heart-rate curve to your workouts. It never logs anything without you and collects nothing extra. Turn the connection off anytime — and the app keeps working, you just enter things manually.

What it’s for

Why turn it on

More accurate readiness

Real sleep and HRV instead of an estimate.

Workout import

A workout from your watch into history in one tap, heart rate included.

No lock-in

Without a watch you lose no feature.

In the app

Three steps

Allow the connection

You choose what the app may read.

The morning is pre-filled

Sleep and heart rate wait, ready to confirm.

Import a workout

The watch recorded it, you just accept it.

Let your watch data finally work for you.

Connect NEXT8 to Apple Health or Health Connect and make your readiness more accurate — for free.
