TL;DR Ultrahuman is rolling out a new “Emerald” update for its companion app.
It introduces a new “UltraSphere” decision-making engine that suggests “Next Best Actions” to users.
It also offers better health insights and new tabs such as “Sleep Screener,” “Longevity,” and “Windows.”
Ultrahuman, the company behind fitness rings like the Ultrahuman Ring PRO, today announced a major “Emerald” update to the Ultrahuman app, introducing a fresh design and new features to help users get the most out of their fitness trackers.
The update aims to make health insights easier to understand so users can make better health decisions. At the core of the new experience is the “UltraSphere” — a decision engine that lives on the home screen and offers “Next Best Actions” to users. These actions are customized to each user based on their location, current weather, and circadian rhythm.

UltraSphere can suggest that users step outside and get some light, cut off their caffeine intake for the day, wind down, and more. It uses data such as heart rate variability, skin temperature, and movement to suggest the “Next Best Actions.” For users with the Ultrahuman M1 or M2 Live, it can also draw on blood glucose levels.
With the Emerald update, Ultrahuman is making workout tracking more accurate with better automatic workout detection and improved heart rate algorithms. The accuracy of VO2 Max data has also increased by 21%, per the company.
Users can now also connect third-party devices to the Ultrahuman app and use them to track selected workouts. Supported devices include the Apple Watch, Garmin devices, WHOOP, and even the AirPods Gen 3.
