Creators Chamfera health app for Apple Watch that turns the device into a Whoop-style fitness tracker has announced on social media that almost all of the app's features will soon be available for free. Until now, Bevel required a $5.99 per month (or $49.99 per year) subscription. However, the paid tier won't disappear completely.
What does Bevel do?
You can Read my review of Bevel hereIn short, it's a tracking app that uses data from your Apple Watch (and other devices) to give you a Whoop-style dashboard that collects your health data in one place and analyzes it. Bevel can give you advice on how healthy it thinks you are and how your habits are affecting your health outcomes. Although the Apple Watch can collect a lot of data, Apple has never created an app that integrates everything in a convenient and easy-to-read form.
This integrated control panel is where Apple Watch competitors like Whoop and Oura shine, as well as using Bevel (or one of its competitors, e.g. Sports) gives a similar experience.
What's free in Bevel (and what's the catch?)
According to statements Bevel made on Instagram And RedditAn update coming this week will make all Bevel features free. except Bevel Intelligencetheir artificial intelligence function. The company says this is because AI is more expensive to provide. Free features include everything else: “all historical data, nutrition, strength building, sleep alarm and more.”
What are your thoughts so far?
The company also hinted that two things will likely happen in 2026: more possibilities (details have yet to be announced) and price increase. Customers who are currently signed up for an annual plan will be upgraded to 2026 plans at the same price they pay now.
There's not enough information to know whether next year's plans, which the company calls “Bevel 3.0,” will be worth the subscription fee, whatever it may be. But I Maybe I will say that the capabilities of regular Bevel are definitely worth trying, especially for free. Bevel collects data from almost any health app that links to Apple Health and can track a variety of metrics, including strength training by muscle group, cardio, recovery metrics, and habit tracking. Most other wearables collect this information in their own apps, but if you wear an Apple Watch, Bevel is one of the best ways to consolidate all this information.
