## What is Pace Up?

When you are running with Pace Up, you'll be able to get a quick peek at your heart rate. Forget the cluttered interfaces, no more hard to read numbers. See everything you need instantly, it's that simple.

* You get to see your heart rate presented in fullscreen on the main screen. We also give you a quick glance at your current heart rate zone, always nice to know during a run.

* Below the heart rate you can show the duration, distance, or average pace of your run. Switching between these values can be done by tapping the text.

* Pace Up is an independent app for the Apple Watch. This means you don't have to install any iOS app to use it.

* No Health data is shared with other services, everything is saved in Apple Health.

* Show your current heart rate zone from the main screen.

* When you finished running, you get a nice performance overview of your run.

* Did you have to wait when crossing the street during your run? No worries, Pace Up automatically pauses your activity.

* Do you want to see more statistics during your run, even that is possible.

Enjoy running!

We hope you like this update, leave a review in the App Store, or let us know what you want to see included in the app.

### 1.2.4 — 2020-06-08

In this update of Pace Up, we tried to tackle an issue where the app became responsive after a long run while returning from the background. This should be fixed. Please let us know when this is not the case...

We found that the music screen was not really useful while running so we decided to remove this from the application. Hope you don't mind.

Another thing we integrated is the possibility to switch the subtitle on the main heart rate screen. Tapping the direction text will allow you to switch between distance and average page. This can come in handy depending on your type of workout.

If you like Pace Up please rate us in the app store! Enjoy the app and stay safe!

### 1.2.3 — 2019-12-31

We fixed a bug where the app would only display a black screen on the last watchOS update, sorry for the inconvenience...

Next to this nasty bug we now give you some haptic feedback when switching heart rate zones. Yeej!

Enjoy this release!

### 1.2.2 — 2019-11-07

To all the sad panda's out there: We fixed a bug that blocked the actions menu from being presented during your run.

### 1.2.1 — 2019-11-04

We noticed some problems when running Pace Up on a watchOS 6.1 device. Luckily we were able to fix these bugs very quick.

Please let us know when you experience more issues...
