Been looking into fitness trackers that also have some mental health tracking features, and it seems like the landscape is still pretty limited. I’m seeing a few with basic stress tracking (using heart rate variability), sleep monitoring (which indirectly ties into mental well-being), and guided breathing exercises. But are there any that truly stand out and offer more in-depth insights or actionable recommendations?
For example, I’ve seen a few articles mentioning the Fitbit Sense and some of the Garmin models, but the reviews seem mixed on how accurate or helpful the stress tracking actually is. Sleep tracking appears to be more reliable across brands.I’m curious if anyone has real-world experience with these devices and can share whether the mental health features have been genuinely beneficial, or if they’re more of a gimmick.
Specifically, I’m interested in things like mood logging integrations, personalized insights based on the data collected, or features that help connect with mental health resources. Are there any fitness trackers that are moving beyond just measuring stress levels and towards providing more comprehensive mental wellness support? Or would I be better off sticking to a dedicated mental health app alongside a basic fitness tracker?
