What Ask Soma can answer today

Ask Soma is new, and we're opening it up in stages.

What it answers now

Today Ask Soma answers three kinds of question, from the numbers on your iPhone:

• Your heart rate variability: why it's where it is today.
• Last night's sleep: how it went. When your HRV is trending down, this one becomes whether tonight can bring it back.
• Training: whether it's a good day to train hard tomorrow. If your status is Resting or Unwell, Soma takes that into account.

These are the three suggested questions on the Ask Soma screen. Tap them rather than typing: Soma recognises them only as they're written.

What's coming

Open questions on anything else, follow-ups in your own words and talking to Soma out loud come with the full conversation model. Until then, Soma replies that the model isn't connected yet. Nothing you type leaves your iPhone.

What it won't do

Ask Soma won't diagnose, prescribe or replace your doctor. See Ask Soma and your health.
