While the hardware perks of HaptiFit Terra are in a league of their own, it’s the software ecosystem that truly sets them apart and earns them a SlashGear CES Innovation award. The companion mobile app brings AI Sports Trainer to life. It not only logs your workout details and presents the wellness progress, but also uses that data to create personalized fitness regimes to keep you on track for the sessions ahead. Called Thrive, the mobile app curates a detailed analysis of the workouts and is available for both Android and iOS devices.
There’s also a voice assistant that can be directly accessed on the device. It can be pulled up to get an update on the ongoing activity’s progress at any given point during the workout session. Another neat convenience is wear detection, which means the HaptiFit Terra automatically activates when put on and resumes the playback session, while taking them off shuts them down. It’s a neat way to conserve some juice. But the device itself is no laggard in the energy efficiency department.

The audio fitness gear is claimed to last up to 8 hours on a single charge, and thanks to the fast magnetic charging facility, a mere five minutes of charging will be good enough for two hours of listening time. Another benefit that needs to be experienced on the HaptiFit Terra to realize its importance is that the 3D pressure-sensitive controls with haptic feedback are far more reliable compared to touch and swipe-based inputs on a conventional pair of earbuds. Down the road, Mojawa plans to include social and competitive elements into the Thrive app, which means you can add a bit of flair and motivation to your workout sessions.
