But Whoop is in the process of suing a company called Bevel, who is very similar to an app like Athletic that you use.

Essentially, an app that can take fitness and activity data from whatever...

activity tracker you're using and conclude it into, uh, different types of sleep data and strain data and recovery, whatever, all those different things that every single other thing uses, but whoop just tells you that they're better at it.

Um, but some of the reasons for why they're suing them is just very funny.

Um, do you remember the, uh, fine bros?

They basically wanted to own the word React.

Just remember that in some of what I'll say here.

So Bevel released a video going over a couple of the things of when Whoop sent them a cease and desist and now this most recent...

lawsuits wow total brain we are very far into this episode and it is showing um so in their first season's assist they asked bevel to disable dark mode and change the name of strain and recovery as the names of metrics in their app because i guess those are things that only who can do strain and recovery strain and recovery so the funny thing about this is uh whoop only has one color background which is dark a dark gray uh bevel has light mode and dark mode like

every single other app that's ever been made.

And light mode is their default.

But I guess Whoop doesn't like their dark mode because it looks too similar to Whoop's.

And they also don't like the name strain and recovery because I guess those are metrics that Whoop wants to own.

It's one of those things, though, when you start focusing too much on a word that has been around forever, it's just a pretty common word that fits in there.

Here's a couple of their claims that I'll read out loud.

They claim that their home screen looks too much like theirs, that both apps use rings to represent user strain and recovery scores near the top.

Those rings are colorful circular bars that increase clockwise, and there's a coaching feature in a rectangle using rounded edges and a dark gray background.

So rings with colorful, I mean...

Like every health metric ever.

Fitbit uses it.
