Whoop adds member network for sharing fitness and health data

Whoop is adding Whoop Humans, a social network in its app where members can share wearable data and posts with other users. The company says each account belongs to a real person, positioning the service as a human-run alternative to platforms it says contain bots and automated content.

Members can choose to share activities, achievements and measures such as sleep, recovery, strain, heart rate variability and resting heart rate. Moments can include photos and captions, with route, pace and distance details for runs; users can also comment and react to posts. Sensitive activities are excluded by default, Moments can be kept private, and Stealth Mode temporarily hides health and performance data. Whoop’s existing Teams feature will remain available.
