I travel a lot and am often in other time zones. While I can answer the question of whether I was on a plane, is there a travel mode to take into account time zone changes? For example, going from New York to Madrid is a 6 hour time zone shift. How does that get figured into the metrics or is there a way to effectively reset the time zone?
Hi @astroman, the WHOOP app doesn’t have a dedicated “travel mode,” but it does factor in time zone changes automatically by analyzing your local device time and your sleep/activity patterns.
Here’s how it works: When you travel and your phone’s time zone updates, WHOOP uses your new local time to log sleep, strain, and recovery. So if you fly from New York to Madrid, your metrics will shift to Madrid time as soon as your phone does.
We’re continuously working to improve this experience across all WHOOP metrics. If you have any specific feedback to share from a personal travel experience, definitely let us know!
Does this mean that if i have my country of residence in my profile but live in a different time zone, my whoop will use the time zone where i currently reside in my sleeps and other time-related functions?
I believe it syncs with your phone. The only time it gets a bit screwy is during active travel.
