Advanced Labs blood testing service You can now use it without a Whoop membership or wearable device That brings down the costs involved significantly Whoops Advanced Labs program was originally designed to let owners of Whoop devices better understand their health through a series of blood tests. It was previously limited to owners of Whoop wearables who had
an active membership, but access has now been expanded to users of other health devices, including the Apple Watch , the Oura Ring, and many of the best Garmin devices .

That means a far greater pool of people can now gain insights into their health by harnessing Whoops system of biomarker analysis. It also provides Whoop with a wider range of responses than it would have been able to collect before. If you take part in Advanced Labs, you can put yourself through a blood testing service that gives you artificial intelligence (AI) insights
and personalized recommendations that are reviewed by clinicians. It goes beyond the standard metrics you might get from rival wearables. Latest Videos From TechRadar Watch full video here:

As well as opening up Advanced Labs, Whoop is also providing access to the Galleri cancer detection test to non-Whoop users. This is designed to detect cancer signals associated with more than 50 types of cancer, Whoop says. Galleri is available as part of Advanced Labs whether or not you have a Whoop membership. Bringing down the cost (Image credit: Whoop) Whoops Advanced Labs testing starts at $150. Combine that with the cost of a Whoop membership which is priced at $149 for your first year and $199 a year thereafter for
the most basic tier and youd be looking at a sizeable outlay if you wanted
to start using the Advanced Labs testing kits. You may like There's now an unofficial app for reading Whoop data without a subscription Whoop is partnering with the Natural Cycles women's health tracking app Garmin backtracks on Cirqa band paywall and makes an extra feature free

But now that Advanced Labs has been opened up to non-Whoop users, that cost can be brought down significantly. Owning a Whoop device and paying its annual fee is no longer required, although you still have to fork out for
the tests themselves.

Its worth noting that allowing users of other wearables to access Advanced Labs does not mean that Whoop will start incorporating data from your Apple Watch or smart ring into its own platform. That all remains totally separate its just that Whoops walled garden has been breached slightly.
