Apple Watch Series 12 has been a marvel of an upgrade, offering a competent replacement for the WHOOP fitness tracker. However, after a month of testing, the reviewer misses one specific WHOOP feature: days measured based on sleep rather than a fixed 24-hour clock. The new Health app feels easy to read and integrates Vitals and Sleep, but it is not yet shipping.
It was briefly available in iOS 27.2 but removed, with Apple promising a return in a later iOS beta prior to release later this year, likely iOS 27.3. The reviewer prefers WHOOP's approach of tracking days based on sleep onset, arguing it is more sensible for fitness goals. They note that if a workout occurs past midnight, it should count for the existing day, or a late-night walk home should count toward the day started, rather than the next.
The article questions if Apple will adopt this concept or offer it as an option. The new Health app is praised for its interface and features like Readiness and Health Age, though it currently lacks the sleep-based day tracking the reviewer desires. The author invites reader comments on the feature.
