Questions and answers
The short version, without the fine-print dodge
What Gneta is now, where the research came from, what happened to the app, and how the site is funded.
What is Gneta now?
Gneta is an independent publication about training watches. We publish original research, practical Garmin guides, metric explainers and free endurance calculators.
Is the Gneta coaching app still available?
No. The coaching and analytics app closed on 1 August 2026. The shutdown notice explains what happened and why.
What happened to the app’s personal data?
Personal account, activity and health data was permanently deleted after the export window. We retained only previously computed aggregate research outputs that cannot identify an individual.
Where does the research data come from?
The aggregate dataset came from the Garmin analytics service we operated with users’ permission. It covered roughly 81,000 activities and 375,000 daily health summaries. The full process is documented in the methodology.
Can I cite or reuse the findings?
Yes. Link to the relevant study, preserve the cohort and limitations, and do not present the results as population-wide facts. The aggregate files are linked from each research page.
Are the calculators free?
Yes. All five calculators run without an account and do not store the values you enter.
Is Gneta affiliated with Garmin?
No. Gneta is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Garmin.
How does Gneta make money?
Research studies, accuracy articles and calculators are never commercial. Some troubleshooting pages may contain advertising, and clearly labelled buying guides may contain affiliate links. Read the complete funding policy.
