What data does elarm use?
How will I know if something has changed in my biometrics?
You were not wearing your device during that time The system did not have enough biometric measurements for that period The information has not synced from your wearable to your phone yet. You can open your wearable app (e.g. Apple Health, Fitbit or Google Fit) to check it has the information Some devices (e.g. Oura Ring) do not take regular measurements, so elarm may not have enough biometric measurements for that period The link between your wearable app and elarm is disconnected. You may want to try reconnecting (forget the current device and add the device again) elarm to your device (settings -> devices)
