Comparisons to recommended values

Coming from Gyroscope I’m really liking the insights and correlations. But I’m missing some info about if the measurements and data is actually good, bad, etc. compared to e.g. the WHO recommendations for my age, size and weight. One simple example: BMI

    One thing you’ll notice with Exist is that we don’t tell you anywhere if any of your values are good or bad. There are a few places we compare them to other users, but we don’t make a judgement here, and in general we just compare everything to your past activity to show if things are going up or down. This is by design! We’d rather not make a judgement on your weight, food intake, how much you’re walking, etc. We give you the information and leave it to you to decide if you want to raise or lower those. So making more explicit judgements on what’s “bad” is not really what we’re after. We also don’t want to add things just because some other app does 🙂

    All the same, I’ve left the suggestion here to gauge interest.
