WRISTGRID GUIDE

See your Garmin stress level on your iPhone

Garmin's stress tracking is powerful, but it's usually buried in the Connect app. WristGrid surfaces your stress level as an iPhone widget so you can spot a stressful day building before it catches up with you.

What Garmin stress measures

Your watch estimates stress throughout the day primarily from heart-rate variability, giving a live read on how loaded your nervous system feels — not just how hard you trained.

Spikes during meetings or travel are easy to miss if the number only lives inside Connect.

Why glanceable stress helps

A widget makes stress visible between meetings, not only in a post-hoc evening report. Catching a climb early is when a short walk or breathing break still helps.

Shown next to Body Battery, stress explains why your energy score is draining even when step count looks fine.

How WristGrid shows it

WristGrid reads stress from your watch via GW Bridge and shows it — alongside Body Battery and energy context — as an iPhone Home Screen or Lock Screen widget with periodic refresh controlled by WidgetKit.
