Most wellness apps force you to select from a preset list of what they think you want to work on. Do more cardio. Reduce screen time. Get eight uninterrupted hours of sleep each night as if you're a monk with zero kids and no job stress.
At Bearmore, we flipped that script.
What matters is defined by you.
“What matters” means
Most apps are built around one outcome. Run faster. Deadlift more. Meditate consistently.
And if that’s what you’re focused on right now, that’s great - Bearmore can help.
But when we ask what matters at Bearmore, **we aren’t speaking about one dimension. We’re asking about what’s really important to you. We’re interested in what’s going to make a difference to your life. We’re talking about your complete map - how it all connects.
It might be running a 10k and writing that game changing novel. Feeling strong and being present with your kids. Staying healthy as you age and showing up sharp at work.
Sometimes, it’s all of it.
Bearmore lets you name it all - in your words, not ours. Like you’d tell a coach, a mate, or a therapist:
“I want to feel good in my body, stay healthy as I get older, write something meaningful, be more mindful at work, and just feel like a badass more days than not.”
Whatever it is—it’s yours.
It can be physical, social, emotional, intellectual, personal, or or all five.
Short-term, long-term, crystal-clear, or messy-as-hell.
Doesn’t matter.
It matters to you—and that’s what we build around.
How it works inside Bearmore
We keep it simple but smart.
You write your what matters statement. Free text. No filters. No character limits.
We translate it to standardised focus areas (plus the reasoning behind it) so it syncs with your goals.
You get a visual. A clean, five-dimension snapshot that makes sense of what drives you - and where to focus.
That visual becomes your dashboard for action.
It connects your real priorities to the actions you're taking in the app - sessions, activities, bursts.
No fluff. Just straight-line feedback between what you want and what you're doing.
We do this mapping for a reason: so every activity you see connects directly to what matters most to you.
Our recommendations aren’t random - Each one is grounded in evidence and tagged to show exactly which focus areas it supports.
You’ll see this at a glance every time you open an activity. No guesswork. Just effective use of your time.
