Activity Page for WellPD

Using the Activity Page

WellPD tracks your activity levels through your movements, helping you maintain a balanced, healthy lifestyle that supports your overall well-being.

The WellPD app helps you monitor your daily movement, recognize activity intensity, and access additional activity insights. These insights can help you better understand your movement patterns and support conversations with your healthcare team.

WellPD is not designed to diagnose or provide treatment recommendations. Instead, it provides insights to support you and your doctor in determining the best approach to your care.

Activity intensity

Your activity data is categorized into four main levels and shown into an explanatory chart, matched with colors:

Sedentary (light green): Sedentary time refers to periods when you're mostly inactive, like sitting, lying down or relaxing.

Low Intensity (light pink): Light physical activities that involve a certain degree of movement. Examples include slow walking, light housework, gesturing, cooking or writing.

Mild Activity (dark pink): Mild activities that raise your heart rate and breathing, but still allow you to hold a conversation. Examples include brisk walking or light exercise like yoga. Mild activity is good for improving general fitness and health.

Vigorous Movement (red): Activities that require a lot of effort and significantly raise your heart rate and breathing. Examples include running, cycling, jumping or high-intensity interval training (HIIT).

No Data (grey): Times when your WellPD wearable watch was unable to record data, possibly due to not being worn, low battery, or other reasons.
