So far, love Bevel, it’s truly great and I don’t Sat that much. My wife and I just got an Eight Sleep and it seems her Apple Health is picking up her HRV but Bevel isn’t. I’ve tried changing sources but there is only Apple Watch is available and I have all the toggles on for Eight Sleep to Apple Health. I’ve also tried the customization in Bevel to most combinations (mindfulness, REM, Apple Health and RMSSD) to no avail.

Hi Randell, I appreciate your response but I think I got to the bottom of it so far. It seems as though EightSleep wont write HRV to Apple Health for some reason.
Whats weird is (in my wife's app), under Biology, her "HRV Baseline" data shows up but I dont know where that comes from unless its a calculation?
Randell
Dan Mayo: Yes, from what I know- Eightsleep does not import HRV data to Apple Health.
For the HRV Baseline, you can find that if you go to Bevel -> Recovery -> Recovery Score, the same trend or Baseline scores are in there.

Randell this is mildy infuriating to me as Eightsleep claims to track metrics claiming: "The Pod tracks your sleep and vital signs, without the need for wearables". Are you aware of any way to get HRV from the Eightsleep app to Bevel?
Where would Bevel be getting the baseline from on my wife's app if she isnt wearing her watch to bed and Eightsleep isnt reporting it?
Randell
Dan Mayo: I'm not entirely familiar with how EightSleep works or how it syncs data to Apple Health. Currently, Bevel reads data on Apple Health, so as long as the data or metrics are available there, Bevel should be able to pull them in.
I came across this thread here which might give you some info: https://www.reddit.com/r/EightSleep/comments/1d5n5bb/hrv_and_healthkit/
For your HRV baselines, do you mind sending me a screenshot of the following?
- Go to Bevel -> Recovery -> Recovery Score. Screenshot the view for me.
- Go to Apple Health -> HRV -> Scroll down to "Show all data" tap it and screenshot the raw data view for me.
- Go to Bevel -> Bio -> HRV Baselines

Hi Dan Mayo, I'd like to follow up on this. Do you still need help to check the HRV baseline data?

Dan Mayo: Hi, the screenshot on Apple Health, if you tap on a day (Nov 24 - Dec 1) and tap on a raw data point that could have been recorded during the sleep period, it will show you the source of that data and which device recorded it. Is this what you are asking?

Randell I just looked. Its all from when she is wearing her watch during the day.
Seems like EightSleep does not "write" HRV to Apple Health and that is the underlying issue. I have spoken with them and they say its coming.
Thanks for your help.
Randell
Dan Mayo: I see, thanks for confirming. Please let me know if Eight Sleep released this update where it can write HRV data to Apple Health and I will try to help you with setting it up.

Hi Dan Mayo, Can you please share the following screenshots here for me
Bevel -> Profile -> Customization -> Calculation. Screenshot this view for me
Apple Health -> HRV -> Scroll down to "Show all data" tap it, tap on today's data. Screenshot the raw HRV data points for me.
