Metered: Energy Planner

New in 1.0.12: custom categories, energy tax and rest entries, starter suggestions, and focused appointment, PEM and event reports.

Plan your spoons before the crash.

Metered is a privacy-first energy planner for chronic illness, fatigue, pain, PEM, and limited capacity. Build today and tomorrow around a spoon-style budget, spot when a plan is too heavy, and learn what activities, energy taxes, and rest really cost over time.

Everyday planning is free. Metered+ is lifetime, one-time, and no subscription. No account, analytics, tracking, or servers.

PLAN BEFORE YOU SPEND Other apps tell you what happened yesterday. Metered helps you decide what you can do today and tomorrow.

Add activities, energy taxes, and rest or recovery entries. Describe your day in plain language, reuse yesterday, or save a good plan as a template for similar days.

PERSONAL ACTIVITY LIBRARY Create categories with icons, colours, ordering, archive, and restore. Starter suggestions can help you build a library for your conditions without duplicates.

CALMER TODAY GUIDANCE Today keeps the important signals easy to scan:

• remaining spoons and over-budget state
• why your budget changed
• recovery or carry-over from yesterday
• gentle risk guidance when a plan may be too much

MORNING SIGNAL Metered+ reads overnight heart rate variability (HRV), resting heart rate, and sleep from Apple Health. HRV and resting heart rate are compared with recent personal baseline data; sleep is compared with your sleep target. The result is shown as Strong, Steady, Caution, or Low.

APPLE WATCH, WIDGETS AND QUICK NEEDS Check your budget, complete activities, send Quick Needs, and run short orthostatic checks from Apple Watch.

Widgets keep remaining spoons visible without opening the app. Metered+ adds Live Activities for a persistent Lock Screen budget.

BUILT FOR COMPLEX ENERGY Metered supports ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, Long COVID, POTS, EDS, MS, lupus, chronic pain, PMDD, endometriosis, IBD, caregiver burnout, and more.

Track physical, cognitive, social, sensory, masking, and recovery load so your plan reflects how energy really gets used.

Rest is allowed to count.
