October 30, 2026
Your name, not your email Some users who signed in with Apple saw a random email address instead of their real name. Fixed — your actual name now shows up everywhere it should. Steps that stick We squashed a bug where background syncing could accidentally wipe your step count for the day. Your steps are safe now. Gentle health reminders If you skipped connecting Apple Health during setup, you'll now see a friendly reminder on your home screen with a one-tap connect button. No need to dig through settings. Better sign-in experience - If something goes wrong during Apple Sign-In, you'll get a clear message about what happened instead of a generic error - Added a "Trouble signing in?" link at the bottom of the sign-in screen — tap it to get a magic link sent to your email Under the hood - More reliable background syncing with fewer failed attempts - Step permissions are now detected faster and more accurately
