## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.28.2 — 2026-10-03

A clearer way to understand your numbers.
• Explainers are now pictures. Ask Coach, Readiness, Fitness · Fatigue, the Leaderboard and the target force curve builder show how things work as diagrams. Tap one to read the original text.
• New Community Leaderboard: switch between Meters, Hours and Active days, see the top three on a podium, and find your own standing pinned at the bottom.

### 1.28.0 — 2026-10-02

Virtual Coxswain now takes your goals.
• Set a goal split, a stroke rate, or both before you row. Coxswain coaches you toward them and appears on Screen 1 for you.
• The Coxswain card shows green when you're on pace or ahead and orange when you're behind.

New: Ghost Racer
• A live-screen card that races you against a goal-pace boat on single RowErg pieces with a target split.

Also new
• RowIQ Shop in your Profile tab.
• New accounts start with two saved workouts, and you can swipe any saved workout to delete it.
• Choose a workout from Saved Workouts or the new Coxswain goals card.
• An account is now required. If you used guest mode, sign in and your saved workouts move onto your account.

Fixes
