Whoop is a scared company bullying smaller developers on things that aren’t valid. Dark mode? Really? Using the words “Recovery” and “Strain”? C’mon.

They just sued Bevel on the basis that their app looks like the Whoop app because it has dark mode; uses the words “recovery” and “strain”; uses circles to represent data; uses boxes with rounded corners; and uses white text.

This video from Bevel shows that Whoop lawyers didn’t even bother to look at the screenshots they were using in the complaint. And lays out a case that Whoop’s complaint is frivolous.

A company confident in their own product doesn’t do this. Whoop’s business is based on cheap hardware and expensive subscriptions. It’s not a great place to be. They know it.

@mookie I mean, people shouldn’t use Bevel because it has a liability waiver if they misuse your health data and a mass arbitration provision in its TOS so you can’t sue them if they do. I don’t have much sympathy for them, but Whoop seems equally unsympathetic.
