Some screens in the Workbench are deliberately inert. Knowing which saves you reporting them — and saves you wondering whether you set something up wrong.

​
Vitality Score and Symptoms will not work here

These two are the most visible gaps, and they have the same cause. Both are computed on the Vitality Tracker platform, not inside the Workbench, and both need a full suite of biomarkers to mean anything. At this stage some of those biomarkers do not sync to the platform yet — because working out which ones are even available on real devices is a large part of what this beta is for.
This is not a fault you can fix by connecting something. The Workbench updates often, and once the full set of biomarkers syncs, your Vitality Score and Symptoms will simply start appearing. You will not have to do anything.
In other words: these two screens are waiting on the very thing you are helping us establish.

Things that work but need patience

Not broken, just not instant:
  • SHI needs 14 usable nights inside a 28-night window before it produces anything. Until then it shows progress rather than a score.
  • Capacity needs a few nights of your own history before it has anything to compare today against.
  • Personal baselines — respiratory rate, heart-rate dip and similar — stay blank for one to two weeks.
  • Vascular Age needs a blood pressure reading. You can just log one by hand.

​
Things that depend on your hardware

Several gaps are your device’s, not ours. An Apple Watch cannot tell us how long you took to fall asleep, because Apple does not expose it. Polar does not report naps at all. Fitbit’s idea of “awake” differs depending on how it reaches us. Each device’s page covers its own quirks, and What to expect from your wearable puts them side by side.
