New in the App: A 30-Second Face Scan and 60+ Connected Apps
Most people already own more health data than they know what to do with. A watch counts one thing, a phone counts another, a training app keeps its own private ledger, and none of them are on speaking terms. The result is the modern paradox: more measurement than ever, and no clearer sense of how you're actually doing. Two additions to the Agen app are aimed squarely at that gap — one that lets you take a reading in thirty seconds with nothing but your phone camera, and one that finally gets your existing apps to share a single picture.
A 30-second scan, using just your camera
Point your phone's front camera at your face, hold still for about thirty seconds, and the app reads a set of everyday signals. It works through a technique called remote photoplethysmography (rPPG): the camera detects the tiny colour changes in your skin as blood pulses beneath it — invisible to you, legible to a good enough sensor. From that it estimates:
Measuring the invisible
What a 30-second scan reads
The point of a thirty-second reading isn't precision for its own sake. It's frequency. A number you can capture on any ordinary morning, without a strap or a cuff, is a number you'll actually capture — and it's the trend across many mornings, not any single heroic measurement, that tells you something worth knowing. Use it to correct the story you tell yourself about how you're doing, not to replace how you feel.
60+ apps and devices now connect
The second addition is less visible and, for a lot of people, more useful. Agen now connects with more than sixty third-party apps and devices, so the data you're already generating flows into one place instead of scattering across a dozen. If you track with a wearable, a training platform, a nutrition log, or a general health app, chances are it's on the list.
One picture, not twelve
60+ apps & devices, in four groups
Garmin, Oura, Fitbit, Whoop, Polar, Apple Health, Google Health.
Strava, TrainingPeaks, Komoot, TrainerRoad, Hevy.
MyFitnessPal and other food and hydration logs.
Omron and the major aggregators that tie it together.
Why this matters
Agen was always built on a single idea — that your routine should follow your own data rather than an average pulled from someone else's body. These two features push that further. The face scan lowers the cost of taking a reading to almost nothing, so measurement becomes a habit instead of an event. The integrations mean the readings you already collect stop living in separate silos and start forming one coherent picture. Together with the Agen Band and the guidance in the Agen system, the aim is the same as it's always been: turn scattered signals into something you can act on, calmly and consistently.
How to try it
Both features are live in the Agen app now. Open the app, run a scan from the home screen, and connect your apps and devices from the integrations settings — it takes a couple of minutes and the historical data comes with it. If you're new to Agen, the app overview walks through what it does, and our guide to sleep and recovery is a good example of how tracking trends like HRV and resting heart rate can shape a routine over time.
The bottom line
A thirty-second camera scan for a quick read on your everyday signals, and 60+ integrations so your existing apps finally share one picture. Both are wellness tools for noticing trends and building better habits — not medical devices, and not a substitute for professional care. Measurement is only useful when it changes what you do; these updates are built to make that easier.
