About Cortisol+ Stress & HRV Monitor
Your Apple Watch already senses your stress. Cortisol+ turns its heart rate, HRV, and sleep into a real-time cortisol score - so you can catch stress building and calm it before it peaks. No lab tests, no finger pricks. Just your watch and a clearer picture of your body.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- Live cortisol & stress score, read from your Apple Watch biometrics through the day
- Today's call - one clear answer for the day: push, keep it steady, or recover, from your score, sleep, HRV and resting heart rate
- Your normal - see how today's HRV and resting heart rate compare with your own 30-day average
- Full sleep analysis - sleep stages, quality score, sleeping heart rate, and an overnight chart of heart rate, HRV, breathing rate and oxygen
- Pace of Aging & Bio Age - see how fast your body is really aging from your recovery data
- Vitals trends - HRV, resting heart rate, blood oxygen and more, each with your personal "in-range" benchmark
- Your Cortisol Range - what's normal for you, and what's driving today's number
- Monthly recaps - your highs, your wins, weekdays vs weekends, your sleep rhythm and how far you walked, with your month so far compared with last month
- Your workouts in one place - walks, runs, rides and swims from Apple Health, including the Workout app and Strava
- Zen, your AI coach - 2-minute breathwork and meditations for anxiety, focus, and deeper sleep. Breathing sessions count as Mindful Minutes in Apple Health
- Daily Breakdown - a plain-language recap of what moved your cortisol, powered by private on-device AI
ON YOUR WRIST
- Meet Pebble, Ripple and Bloom - companions that live on your Apple Watch and change colour and mood with your level. Prefer numbers? Switch to Score mode
- Seven complications for any watch face - your score, your companion, HRV, resting heart rate, last night's sleep, sleep & recovery, and a one-tap breathing shortcut
- Guided breathing on the watch - eight calm cycles with gentle haptics, no phone needed
- Choose your companion and set up faces from the Watch Faces page on your iPhone - it stays in sync automatically
ON YOUR HOME SCREEN
- Six iPhone widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen - companion & score, daily balance, your signals, last night's sleep, a metric focus, and a breathing shortcut
JUST ASK SIRI
- Ask for your stress score or last night's sleep, whether to push or rest today, or an analysis of your stress, sleep, activity or recovery
- Start a breathing session or a walk, or log a drink or caffeine, hands-free
WHY CORTISOL+
Chronically high cortisol quietly drives anxiety, poor sleep, burnout, and faster aging - and most people never see it happen. Cortisol+ makes it visible: it reads the signals your Apple Watch already collects (heart rate variability, resting heart rate, sleep and activity) and turns them into one clear score you can act on.
Check it in the morning to see how you recovered. Glance at your wrist or a widget through the day to spot what spikes you. Wind
