## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.1 — 2026-08-11

Enhanced logging using Sentry to capture bugs proactively.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-07-28

TRAIN TOGETHER WITH LINK UP
Pair up with a friend or training partner and work out in real time. Your sessions stay in sync as you lift, with live updates and a smooth hand-off if someone needs to take the lead. Drop off for a moment? Spot reconnects automatically, and your logged sets are always kept safe.

SMARTER RECOVERY AND COACHING
Body Battery now works as a true charge-and-drain gauge that reflects how your day actually went. Recovery scoring is more accurate, with better sleep and illness signals and a real continuous stress metric. Your AI Spot Coach is sharper and more honest, with clear, actionable guidance and a targeted sleep tip when it matters. Exertion targets now adapt to your recovery.

A REDESIGNED WORKOUT
The active workout view gets a clean new Editorial Ledger layout. Completed exercises collapse on their own and move you forward, tap any exercise to jump straight to it, and a new floating glass tab dock gives the app more room to breathe. There's a fresh icon set throughout and a more premium pre-workout hub.

APPLE WATCH, REFRESHED
A redesigned in-workout set logger and exercise list, built around Liquid Glass and tuned so everything fits cleanly under the clock without scrolling.

Plus dozens of smaller fixes and refinements across the app.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-07-05

IPAD, REDESIGNED FOR THE BIG SCREEN
Spot now feels native on iPad instead of a stretched phone app.
- New responsive layout foundation that adapts every screen to the iPad's size.
- Landscape two-pane split layouts across five key screens.
- Left side rail navigation in landscape, replacing the phone tab bar.
- Messages and PT chat now use a master-detail split: conversation list on the left, the open thread on the right, each scrolling independently.
- Active workout split view: your exercise list on the left, exercise detail on the right.
- Health screen laid out as a clean 2x2 grid (recovery, sleep, exertion, calories) that uses the full width.
- Feed is now fully scrollable across the whole width, with tidier card sizing.
- Many spacing, sizing, and edge fixes so content no longer runs past the screen or gets clipped.
- PT chat input now lifts above the keyboard and re-snaps to the latest message.

WORKOUTS
- Faster saving: finishing a workout completes right away. It no longer waits on background sync, badge checks, or the review prompt. Your data is saved to Health and on device first, then everything else happens quietly in the background. Most noticeable on iPad and on slow networks.
- Autofill for repeated sets: values carry over from your previous set, with protection so your manual edits are never overwritten.

HEALTH
- More accurate recovery: the recovery baseline is now built from your real sleep data, and resting heart rate is handled independently for a truer score.

FEED AND SOCIAL
- Comments now expand inline on a post instead of taking you to a separate screen.

TRAINER TOOLS (PT)
- New client-aware session editor with clear Save, Publish, and Discard actions, plus an assign choice sheet.
- Scalable client picker, save-as-template, and discoverable autofill for building sessions faster.
- Assigning a session now keeps it as a draft on Save, so nothing publishes before you are ready.
- Session and recurrence dates now use your local timezone.
- Trainer staff access: multiple team members can now work under a single trainer profile.

STABILITY AND FIXES
- Fixed a crash caused by remote images by moving to a safer image pipeline.
- Fixed a session editor crash and several smaller trainer-side issues.
- Backend reliability improvements for AI exercise matching and trainer session creation.

### 1.0.9 — 2026-06-27

REDESIGNED APPLE WATCH WORKOUTS
