WEEKLY UPDATES
Latest update on shipments and Android app development
Hello Everyone,
We wanted to share a quick update on the latest progress with shipments as well as the Android app development.
Shipments
Shipping is ongoing, with 300 rings shipped over the past week.
We’ll continue to ship 2500 rings over the next month while monitoring the experience across hardware, firmware, and app to ensure everything performs as expected. We’ll share more detail on our ramp-up plan soon, as our confidence builds in the end-to-end experience at scale.
In parallel, we’re sending around 200 emails per day to Backers to confirm key details needed to prepare orders for shipment, helping us move through the queue and support ongoing shipping.
These emails come from contact@veliaring.community, so please keep an eye on your inbox and follow the steps as soon as you receive them. Once confirmed, your order moves into processing and then shipment.
Android app
Over the past week, we’ve completed another full round of testing across a range of Android devices.
We’ve now reached an important milestone. Our target was to reduce first-attempt connection failures to below 10%, and in our internal testing we’re now seeing this at 2%.
Next week, we’ll be releasing the Android app, alongside a new firmware update that further improves the reliability of connection and sync.
As the Android app rolls out more widely, we’ll be monitoring performance closely and continuing to improve the experience across different devices.
What’s next for the app (across iOS and Android)
With the foundations now in place, we’re focused on helping you better understand your data - day to day and over time.
From here, we’re building towards:
- A daily summary that brings your vitals together into a clear, overall insight, so you can quickly understand how your body is responding and how to approach your day
- More actionable guidance within each vital
- Longer-term monthly insights and guidance based on your trends over time
- Sleep improvements
