## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2026.3.01 — 2026-03-04

• Fixed additional mid-workout Bluetooth disconnects on some FTMS rowing machines
• Calorie data now syncs accurately to the Health app

### 2026.2.20 — 2026-02-22

Better connection reliability for budget and generic rowing machines.

Some rowers — particularly generic and off-brand Bluetooth FTMS machines — were silently dropping their connection mid-workout due to communication timing issues. This update fixes that:

• Smarter Bluetooth keep-alive timing that won't overwhelm your rower's connection
• Automatic reconnection if your rower briefly drops — no need to restart the app
• Connection health monitoring so the app detects and recovers from weak signals faster

Also fixed a crash that could occur when certain machines reported unusual sensor values during a workout.

Calorie tracking improvements: workouts now correctly pass your calculated calorie burn through to the Health app, even when your rower's own calorie counter is unreliable.

### 2026.2.14 — 2026-02-14

- Fixed slow performance on initial load of career screen
- Fixed slow performance on initial load of workouts history
- Fixed edge cases of pace data not showing in workout detail chart

### 2026.1.20 — 2026-01-22
