Allure

A workout app for the Pebble Time 2 (platform emery): walk, run or train with your heart rate shown live in five colour-coded effort zones.

Français : README.fr.md

Features

• Three activities: walk, run, workout, with a 3-second countdown.
• Live heart rate. The top half of the screen changes colour with your effort zone (five zones, as a percentage of your estimated maximum heart rate).
• Duration, steps, distance, pace and speed. Press the down button to switch.
• Session summary: average and maximum heart rate, estimated calories.
• Settings on the phone: sex, age, height and weight.
• The language follows the watch language: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.

How the numbers are computed

• Maximum heart rate: Tanaka formula (208 - 0.7 x age) for men, Gulati formula (206 - 0.88 x age) for women.
• Zones: below 60 %, 60-70 %, 70-80 %, 80-90 % and 90 % or more of that maximum.
• Calories: Keytel formula, from average heart rate, weight, age and sex.
• Distance: steps multiplied by a stride length estimated from your height. There is no GPS, so distance, pace and speed are estimates.

Requirements

• A Pebble Time 2 (heart rate sensor required).
• The Pebble SDK, with the emery platform.
