I Doubted the Apple Watch Readiness Score… Until Last Night
A week with the Apple Watch Readiness Score, and every night was a 6 or a 7, so I wasn't sure it was doing anything. Then I ate Taco Bell, spent the night with heartburn, and woke up to a 1 (Recover). My sleep score was a 70. My vitals were not.
Also in this one: how the 0–10 scale breaks down (Go For It, Ready, Pace Yourself, Recover), what's actually feeding the score (overnight heart rate, respiratory rate, wrist temp, HRV, and sleep score), why a 58 sleep score got me a higher readiness than a 70, naps raising your score (only if you sleep an hour), no Readiness history in watchOS 27.2 beta 2, and whether Workout Buddy mentions your score.
