What they did
First App Store asset is a video with the CTA 'Find out how you're really feeling in 2 minutes. Let's check.', followed by screenshots: 'All your health in one app', 'Get your energy back', 'Track sleep and recovery', 'Learn ways to reverse stress', 'Monitor blood pressure', 'Turn data into insights'. The 2-minute promise is repeated inside onboarding.
