FAQs
The Well One Scores
The Health Score is a scientifically calculated number from 1 (Low) to 1,000 (Excellent), and it is based on your feelings, physicality and lifestyle. Well One also has a separate financial wellbeing score providing you with a score between 1 (Low) to 1,000 (Excellent), which draws on consumer financial research. Well One helps you to keep track of your physical activity and provides a good directional indicator of how your health and wellbeing is evolving over time.
If you can measure health, you can manage it!
With the explosion of health and fitness-related wearable devices and applications on the market, it has never been easier for people to get access to a variety of health and fitness related data. However, handling and making sense out of large amounts of data without any support can be difficult.
This is where the Well One Health Score comes in. It simplifies your health status into just one number so that it can be universally understood. Fundamentally, the Well One Health Score is based on who you are (body), how you feel (mind) and how you live (lifestyle).
The Well One Health Score is a scientifically calculated number from 1 (Low) to 1,000 (Excellent). It moves up or down in real-time, depending on how your body, emotional wellbeing or lifestyle data changes.
The Well One Health Score is based on over 300 million person-years of clinical data. It was developed by health tech specialists dacadoo in collaboration with a leading professor and former long-term scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Boston.
The weighting of the Well One sub-scores is: Body (40%), Mind (15%) and Lifestyle (45%).
A good health score is between 480 and 680 and any score above 680 is considered to be very good.
When you sign up on Well One you enter four data points (age, gender, height and weight) to obtain your first personal Well One Health Score. All other data points for the calculation of the Well One Health Score are automatically imputed with estimated average values initially. Over time, the more data you provide the more accurate and personal your Health Score will become.
It is commonly accepted that a healthy lifestyle can reduce your risk of illness in later life. Wellness is a complex concept, but it can broadly be broken down into the following components: exercise, nutrition, emotional wellbeing, lifestyle choices, stress, and sleep patterns. Adjustments to each of these factors influence the other factors, and in turn, your overall level of wellbeing. Positive changes to your lifestyle can have wide-ranging health benefits but ultimately, change can only be implemented by you.
Empowering you to manage your own health and wellbeing has obvious benefits. Well One works as a health coach in your pocket, motivating you to keep going, rewarding you for your successes and helping you to achieve your goals.
In the past few years we have seen a “consumerisation” of medical devices, as there has been an explosion of health and fitness-related wearable devices and applications on the market. Many consumer electronics vendors have launched step counters, digital weighing scales, blood pressure monitors, activity bands and smart watches, moving the wearables market to the mass market. It has never been easier for people to get easy access to a variety of health and fitness-related data, but this is also a problem, as no one can handle a multitude of data and often people do not know how to put the data points into a larger context.
If health and wellbeing remain intangible, it is difficult to work with them. Conceptually, if you can measure it, you can work with it. So, you need something that retrieves the intelligence out of all these data points and provides a visual and easy to understand status of where an individual is positioned in terms of his/her current health and wellbeing.
That is what the Well One Health Score does, as it simplifies the health status of individuals into just one number so that it can be universally understood. It measures the overall health and wellbeing of a person, based on body values, emotional wellbeing and lifestyle (exercise, nutrition, stress, and sleep). When tracked over time, it offers a good indicator of how a person’s health and wellbeing is evolving. The Well One Health Score is a number from 1 (low) to 1000 (high) and it moves up or down in real-time, depending on how your body, emotional wellbeing or lifestyle data changes. Think of it as your own personal stock quote of your health and wellbeing in real-time, like a stock quote on a stock exchange.
Well One decided to go for a score and not an age-related measure (such as bio age, real age, etc.) for two very important reasons: we wanted an indicator where older people could compare themselves to younger people, and men could compare themselves to women. To do so, we went through a mathematical process called equalisation for age and gender
No, the Well One Health Score is not a diagnostic tool and does not substitute the diagnosis of your medical professional.
The Well One Health Score is an indicator of your current health and wellbeing and the Well One health engagement solution is a lifestyle product which allows you to manage your personal health and wellbeing in an easy and fun way. To be active and help you remain engaged, Well One applies motivation techniques from behavioural science and popular online games and uses social dynamics from groups and social networks. The result: you get real-time virtual coaching and feedback from the Well One Health Navigator which combines these advanced techniques to make it work you.
The health benefits of physical activity are determined by sustained activity over time, not by a single workout.
This is implemented in Well One through a type of averaging procedure (called exponentially-weighted moving average) that looks back at your activities over the past 60 days. Because of this, if a workout you do today consumes less energy than your current average, your score will drop, as it should. Like everything else in Well One, your activity score is a correct and medically realistic measure of your present and future health.
Well One derives its analytical intelligence from scientific studies. For the most part, such studies are based on the gender at birth. Therefore, the gender at birth is a central input for your Health Score calculation.
The CFPB Financial Wellbeing Scale is:
- A consumer-driven measure based on a definition of financial wellbeing that draws on insights from both consumers and financial practitioners. Evaluation of scale items included cognitive interviewing and testing to ensure accurate comprehension of questions, as well as review by academic experts.
- A measurement tool developed over multiple waves of quantitative testing using both classical scale development methods and state-of-the-art Item Response Theory (IRT) techniques to identify appropriate items and how best to combine those items to produce reliable scores of the financial wellbeing construct.
- A common metric adjusted for age group and mode of administration that allows an “apples-to-apples” comparison of scores across consumers. It can also be used to assess a consumer’s current state of financial wellbeing, to track their progress over time, and to understand how other factors, including program interventions, affect financial wellbeing.
- Answers to the questions are scored using a scale that has been produced by CFBP and rigorously tested to ensure it gives an accurate indication of a score that is representative of a person’s attitude and feelings about their finances and how they manage their actual affairs
No, information is not shared with any external agencies.
No, the Financial wellbeing content in Well One offers practical guidance and information not financial advice.
The score ranges from 0 to 1000 and the higher the score the better your financial wellbeing is likely to be. Scores can vary partly due to age and experience so getting a low score initially might mean that you are starting on a journey to good financial wellbeing. Working through the four goals will help you improve your score and get a good foundation in place to make sure you are managing your financial affairs.
Tracking with Well One and Third Party Devices/Apps
On Well One you can track over 115 different indoor and outdoor fitness activities directly via the integrated tracker in the Well One mobile app (iPhone, Android) by clicking on the Track menu item.
In the Track menu, you select your activity by clicking on the Change Activity button or by clicking directly on the fitness activity icon on the screen. You will see the list of available activities that can be tracked on Well One. Some of these activities show a compass icon to signal that they are GPS-based activities. Select the activity and then click on Start to begin tracking your activity live.
If you have already completed a workout and would like to add it manually, click on Add Activity Manually and enter the data there.
Via web access (www.welloneapp.com) you can only add activity manually following the same process after login: Track -> Add Activity Manually.
In addition to tracking directly with the Well One mobile app (iPhone, Android), Well One supports many of the popular fitness tracking devices and apps available from third parties. Check out the Q&A question: “Connecting third party devices and apps”.
Well One contains an algorithm to detect double counting of workouts and remove duplicate workouts. With the ability to connect various tracking devices and apps, users often forget that they track activities on different trackers in parallel. For instance, if they carry an external step counter which is connected to Well One, and if they track in parallel running on Well One. This would be double counting of a running activity. This needs to be detected and the duplicate needs to be removed.
Well One computes a daily summary of activities. The summary collects the user’s workouts and activity data for a specific day. By collecting all workouts and activities of one day, Well One can verify if certain workouts and activities overlap in time. If two workouts overlap, only the workout with the higher burned normalized energy (measured in MET h) will be displayed on Well One.
Some external devices/apps do transfer step data multiple times a day including time information via their connection. This helps Well One to do an exact overlap calculation and therefore be very precise in the removal of duplicate workouts and activities.
Other external devices/apps however, still provide us with only one daily transfer of step data via their connection and without any time information. In these cases, the overlap calculation is less precise. A daily step count might overlap with an intense workout tracked on Well One, so the latter will be preferred to steps because of the higher energy burned.
These are the reasons why sometimes, only a partial transfer of steps from the external device/app is transferred to Well One.
If you have an iPhone 5S or newer, you can also track steps directly via the Apple Health App (HealthKit), as the iPhone has a built-in step counter chip.
Once you have linked Well One to the Apple Health app (see step-by-step guide here), open the Apple Health app on your iPhone and follow the steps below:
- Click on Sources
- Click on Well One
- Go to the section “ALLOW WELL ONE TO READ DATA” and activate Steps.

Well One provides flexibility in how you can track your lifestyle activities. In addition to tracking your activities directly with the integrated tracker in the Well One mobile app (iPhone and Android), Well One allows you to connect to many other fitness tracking devices and apps from third parties. You can also connect third party digital weighing scales, blood pressure monitors and heart rate bands with Well One. If you use an application or device that is not currently connected to Well One, you can import/export your activities in GPX format via the web version of Well One.
All device and app connections are done directly on the Well One mobile app (iPhone and Android) or via the website www.welloneapp.com.
Well One is fully enabled for Apple Health app (HealthKit) . If you own an iPhone 5s or newer, you can synchronise your health data with Well One. You are always in control of what data you would like to synchronise with Well One.
Please click here to access the step-by-step guide on how to connect your Apple Health app with Well One.
If you own an iPhone, you can use Siri to give voice-based commands to Well One.
You can start your workouts using voice-based commands by telling Siri to start walking, running, cycling, etc.
For Siri to understand your command, you need to say:
“Start NAME OF ACTIVITY with Well One”, or
“Start NAME OF ACTIVITY workout with Well One”.
For example, if you say: “Start walking with Well One” then Siri will open the Well One app and immediately start recording your walking activity! You can also use Siri when you already have the Well One app open.
Currently we the following activities activated for Siri: walking, running, cycling, mountain biking, tennis, golf, yoga, aerobics, treadmill and gym workouts.
Different vendors have different approaches on how data is sent to Well One, and many of the vendors do not send historical data.
For the large majority of third party devices/apps, Well One imports your data from the moment you have connected your device or app to Well One. For some devices who do allow the integration of historic data, Well One will integrate it. This is the case with TomTom (integrates 30 days’ history) and Garmin devices (integrates up to 100 items).
Well One connects to many popular fitness tracking devices and apps from third parties.
It is important to note that Well One only integrates raw data such as steps, heart rate, etc. from third party devices and apps. The calculation of energy models and calories burnt is done by Well One, as it is important for Well One to remain consistent in how your workouts are calculated across various fitness tracking sources. As vendors of tracking devices and apps use different energy models, this leads to there being differences between their data and the data seen on Well One.
There is no global standard regarding how energy conversion is calculated from the number of steps. There are numerous models which differ, among other things, with respect to the input data used and the quality of the results. Simple models consider only the number of steps, while more complex models also consider inputs such as speed and route.
For us at Well One it is important to perform the energy calculation directly on our platform. We do this to maintain the integrity of the Health Score and the challenges we run on our platform. It would be unfavourable to use Tracker X instead of Tracker Y because Tracker X’s energy model is “more generous” in energy calculation.
As part of our activity, we therefore regularly work on energy models and choose the best possible one.
You can delete your tracked workout directly on the Well One mobile app (iPhone, Android) or via the website (www.welloneapp.com):
Well One mobile app: Me-> Lifestyle -> Activities -> Click on the specific workout in “My Workouts” and on the trash icon/delete button.
Via web access (after login): Me-> Lifestyle -> Activities -> Click on the specific workout in “My Workouts” and then click on the trash icon/delete button.
This functionality is only available on the website.
If you use a tracking device or application that is not currently connected to Well One, you can import your data in GPX format via the website.
Follow the steps below to import and upload a fitness activity in GPX format:
Step 1: Click on “Upload GPX” on the website.
Step 2: Select the fitness activity of the workout.
Step 3: Then select the GPX file and upload it.
Step 4: Add a photo if desired.
Step 5: To complete the process, click on “Save”.

MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) is a measure to estimate the energy cost of physical activity, independent of weight, where 1 MET = 1 kcal/kg/h. It is also known as “normalised energy”. This measure was introduced by Stanford University in California and has been used globally for more than 30 years.
The MET values used on Well One are based on the Compendium of Physical Activity that has been developed by Stanford University:
https://sites.google.com/site/compendiumofphysicalactivities/
The scientific basis for the nutrition engine is the Mediterranean Diet (MD). There is a large body of solid scientific evidence that recommends the health advantages of the MD. Adherence to the MD results in an improvement of risk factors such as insulin resistance, high blood pressure, and blood sugar or impaired blood lipids. Eating and drinking according to the MD is also associated with a reduction in morbidity and mortality from major chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Another advantage of the MD is that it is easy to follow. It can be administered in all Western cultures. In general, dishes are easy to prepare, and ingredients are readily available and affordable. Furthermore, the MD is to be increasingly found in restaurants and cafes. Finally, the MD is not only healthy, but also tasty, varied and appealing. From a scientific perspective, the MD provides the basis for an ideal approach to healthy eating and drinking, and there is an excellent probability of it being implemented in a sustained way.
The MD is a construct based on foods traditionally eaten in Mediterranean countries. Nevertheless, the MD is not necessarily limited to that region. The principle of the MD is to use fresh, seasonal and minimally processed food, to adhere to a plant-based diet rather than an animal-based one, and to prepare dishes in a healthy way. This is achievable in all cultures.
Live map can be accessed in the “Social” tab by tapping on the map icon in the upper right corner of the mobile app. On the website, it is directly visible on the “Social” tab below the header.
If your friends are currently working out live with GPS, they will be displayed on the live map with their profile picture. You can click on the profile picture to obtain more information on what type of workout they are tracking and for how long.
You can interact directly with your friends by commenting on their workouts.
In the dashboard on the “Me” tab with today’s values, you can decide what specific data points you would like to see on the main dashboard for today’s view.
By tapping/clicking on “Edit”, you can:
- Add new data points by tapping/clicking on “+ Add” and selecting the available data points of interest;
- Delete a data point by tapping/clicking on the trash icon, and;
- Change the order of the data points by holding a specific one pressed down and then moving it to the right position.
The Well One mobile app (iPhone, Android) consumes battery power. Battery consumption varies from smartphone to smartphone and depends on how many other applications, programs and services are being used at the same time.
On average, Well One uses a similar amount of power to any other application. Please note that continued use of GPS location services running in the background of your smartphone can decrease battery life. Make sure you stop tracking a fitness activity once you have completed it!
We recommend that you charge your smartphone every night and that you close any applications and services that run in parallel that you are not using.

Earned achievements are communicated via your news feed under the coach section on Well One.
You may be able to get points for winning individual and team challenges or just for taking part, all of which can be used to redeem in the reward shop or recognition from your employer (Please note: Points and Well One Rewards Shop functionality not available as standard).
Well One has its own points and reward system within the platform, designed to help engage you in healthy living and to reward and recognise progress and success.
You can earn points by completing various activities on Well One. Points are earned through the following activities:
You can redeem your points for various types of rewards in the Well One reward shop. The Well One reward shop offers a catalogue of over 400 products for you to choose from. Our vast range of products includes electronics, health and beauty, toys and much more. In addition to merchandise, you can redeem points for gift cards and donations to charities.
The Well One points are for motivational and reward purposes only and they are not to be confused with the Well One Health Score, which is the real-time indicator of your health and wellbeing.
