The new Recovery feature is in the App Store for iOS — beta not required. Here’s how it looks:

Note at the time I took this screenshot, at the same time my Resources read as 34% (I had run 11km earlier in the day), but also says I had 78% wake up resources.
I interpret this as Recovery is telling my “best state” as I first wake up, and does not update throughout the day. This is fine but not completely clear in the info shown. If I wanted to do an additional workout now, I would not trust the “93%” showing on Recovery. Instead, I’d look to either the 34% Resources or my 86 CTL / 95 ATL / -2 Form, which means right now tomorrow will be at -9 Form. I could do a little bit more but not another 10km run, despite 93% Recovery still showing.
Clicking the info on the top right of the Recovery area gives this information

I’m not sure what’s up with the different fonts used there. A bit weird.
There’s no way to “open” the graph and get discrete information on other days, that I can see, which is a limitation I also have in other areas, like the daily heart rate graph. Additionally, there’s no “widget shortcut” to put on the home page, although one can select the HRV widget to quickly get to that area.
As an aside, I find the Training Zone tab overloaded, with Overview / Summary / Training / Progess / Recovery / Activity areas all bundled together. I think this is due to having five tabs on the bottom: Home, Calendar, Training Zone, Maps, and Settings/Profile.
I’d remove the Profile tab, and instead on the Home page put an icon on top to get Settings/Profile (where on the left is the Watch icon, and on the right is a + with some menu items and notifications. Put a Gear symbol up there on the right, and now you’re down to four tabs, and can split Training Zone up a little bit.
When I select the heart rate widget on the Home page, I get a “Today” screen, that starts with a summary of distance / time / calories, then an activity log for the day, sleep data, resources, heart rate graph and stops and calorie graphs. This Today screen isn’t in the Calendar tab though, and the Activity bubble in Training Zone also gives steps/calories but in a scrolling view showing multiple days. If one wants to go from “daily view” of calories/steps to the scrolling view, it’s two different areas.
There’s a lot of good info in Suunto app, and it’s not horribly organized but there are areas of improvement that could be done.
