What's New in Gear
1.5.1
September 29, 2026
Small update, big peace of mind. This one is all about making sure every run gets counted. FIXED: Plan runs now always show up in Activity. If you ran on a plan day without opening the plan first, the run could get checked off but never logged to a shoe. Now every plan run is logged, and the day still completes. If this happened to you, your missing run should reappear, and Gear-Life may ask which shoe you wore. FIXED: Wore a different shoe than planned? Swapping the shoe on a finished plan day now moves that run's miles and wear to the right shoe, so your plan and your closet always agree. FIXED: The This Week chart now shows all your workouts, including the gym, lifting, and cross training days that were showing up blank. Your weekly duration total now counts workouts you did without a shoe, too. FIXED: Stopping a plan and starting a new one right away could, in rare cases, leave the new plan missing after reinstalling the app or moving to a new phone. Plans now save in the right order every time. IMPROVED: Better VoiceOver support throughout the app, including Gear Diary and Settings. Entries and rows now read as one clear item instead of a string of separate pieces. IMPROVED: A run on a rest day no longer marks the rest day as done. Thanks for running with us and for the feedback. Keep it coming.

Gear-Life acts as an AI advisor for athletes, focusing on the wear and tear of your gear, particularly running shoes and cycling components. It helps you understand when your gear is degrading and when your body is ready for different types of workouts.
How does Gear-Life track shoe wear?
Gear-Life uses Cumulative Mechanical Stress (CSS), a physics-based formula, to measure foam degradation in running shoes. This calculation considers your pace, power, weight, and the surface you run on, going beyond simple mileage tracking.
Can Gear-Life track cycling gear?
Yes, Gear-Life tracks bikes and cycling shoes using a Mechanical Wear Score (MWS). It monitors the wear on components like the chain, tires, brake pads, cassette, and cleats, taking into account different surface types like road, gravel, and MTB.
How does Gear-Life use my health data?
Gear-Life integrates with Apple Health to read your sleep score, HRV, and resting heart rate. This data helps determine your recovery status and suggests appropriate workout types and gear for the day.
Does Gear-Life have an AI advisor?
Yes, Gear-Life features Sage, an AI Gear Advisor. On supported iPhones, Sage runs entirely on-device for free. Sage Pro offers deeper coaching powered by Gemini AI for a one-time purchase of $5.99.
