The fitIQ changelog

A non-exhaustive list of fixes, features and the odd little improvement. Most recent changes listed first.

This changelog is powered in part by digestdiff.com

September 28th

  • A simple, clean, fast and sortable tabulated view of your raw fitIQ data is now available under Metrics > Your data
  • You can use this view to quickly find your bests (and worsts): recoveries, resting heart rate, strain, or any other metric you can think of

September 14th

  • Streaks now have their own page underneath Achievements > Streaks
  • Streaks show not just your PB but your top 3 on the dedicated streaks page - which gives you a bit more to aim at!

September 12th

  • A respiratory rate chart is now available to all members under Metrics > Vitals
  • Journal entries now show on the calendar view day view for Pro members
  • A brand-new Journal metrics page for Pro members shows several key metrics and the impact your behaviours have on them in visual form over time:

September 8th

  • 'Max strain by sport' is now 'Strain by activity type', and can be toggled between displaying average or max strain broken down by activity type
  • The sub navigation appearance in the main menu has been tweaked to match that of the user profile dropdown menu

August 28th

  • The 'Training volume' triple stats shown underneath the graph were incorrectly calculated - this has been fixed
  • Training volume can now be split and stacked by activity type or summed as before
  • The horizontal bar charts on the training page didn't work very well so they have now been re-oriented to be vertical in keeping with the rest of the page
  • The colour scheme on these charts has been borrowed from tremor's excellent palette: https://www.tremor.so/docs/layout/color-palette

August 24th

  • Refer a friend and get a free month of Pro membership for each friend who signs up and goes Pro themselves 🤑
  • Every person you refer contributes towards a few new badges, regardless of whether they go Pro or not 🏅

August 17th

  • Almost all charts within the Metrics section now group data by day, week or month depending on your selected date range - previously some stubbornly showed data by day even when the time frame was far too large to make the visualisation useful. They should feel a lot more intuitive now
  • Charts are spaced together a little more tightly, looking especially better on smaller devices 📱
  • Some chart axes and labels weren't being formatted correctly - this has been fixed 📈

August 15th

  • Fixed a nasty bug calculating streaks which might've prevented streaks accruing and badges being earned in some rare cases
  • What do you mean I only noticed because today's the day I was due to earn my '30 day activity streak' badge? I'm offended... 😒

August 11th

  • If syncing goes wrong for any reason you'll now receive an error message indicating the likely cause

August 9th

  • Ten more badges have been added, though you might not spot them all...

August 3rd

  • You can now choose to show or hide intro paragraphs above charts in the 'Metrics' section
  • You can also choose to show or hide the statistics shown below certain charts in the 'Metrics' section
  • Calendar mode now adds a little information against each month allowing you to get a view of how that month compares to, and ranks against, other months in the year 🏆

July 31st

  • You may find your streak PBs have gone down and you've lost a streak-related badge or two - this was due to a bug in streak calculation being fixed. Sorry for the bother: if something doesn't look right please let me know.
  • Two new badges are live: 'Recovery bingo' and 'Jack of all trades' - thanks for the suggestions, @curtis!
  • ...has anyone managed to get a full house yet? 🤔

July 28th

  • Journal processing is now available for all Pro users 📝

July 26th

  • Limited journal entry processing and analysis is available to a handful of alpha users. If you'd like to be one of them, please get in touch.

July 21st

  • Added six more badges and a few hidden ones too 🕵️
  • Existing badges based on 'streaks' now show the date you hit that streak
  • When viewing the details of a badge the colour of the overlay matches that of the badge
  • Removed the 'Cat Nap' badge - naps aren't yet processed via the API (it will be back!)

July 19th

  • Pro members can check out a new 'Recovery tower' visualisation - a stack of blocks representing their red, yellow and green recoveries
  • The 52 week rolling recovery calendar incorrectly classified recoveries on the border between two colours incorrectly - this is now fixed
  • Pro members now get a blue check mark on their public profile pages (if they've set one up) ✅
  • Streaks have been slightly redesigned - let me know what you think 🤔

July 17th

  • fitIQ.io is no longer in beta! 🥳
  • Calendar links behaved strangely depending on your timezone - this is now fixed thanks to a tip-off from a Pro member

July 13th

  • Calendar mode is now availble for Pro users 🗓
  • Calendar mode provides awesome annual snapshots right down to detailed daily views allowing you to dig into your data more easily than ever - I hope you get as much out of it as I do!

  • All goals look a little bit better on smaller devices

July 7th

  • 90-day recoveries shown on your dashboard have changed to 90-day statistics, including four more metrics in addition to recoveries
  • 90-day statistics are actually now X-day statistics: choose between 30, 60 and 90 day ranges
  • Added a Free Vs Pro feature and price comparison page
  • Some badges weren't displayed on your public profile if you've enabled badge sharing - that is now fixed

July 6th

  • All charts now have more appropriate labels and tooltips (e.g. hours/minutes rather than minutes for training and sleep)
  • All charts now render a little better on smaller screens, making more use of the limited device width:

July 4th

  • Any change you make to the current/previous date range filters now persist across page loads and between sessions
  • Selecting 'All time' from the quick range dropdown didn't work very well - this has been fixed 💪

July 3rd

  • The streamlined mobile sync experience (see June 29th) was too good not to port to bigger devices - so it has been
  • Badges which can only possibly be earned by Pro members are now marked as such

  • Centurion and Millennial badges now show when you earned them (if you've earned them!)

June 30th 2023

  • Light sleep percentage no longer appears or contributes towards trend scores, since - as a percentage - it's always going to be traded off against SWS and REM sleep which are more important indicators
  • Pro members can view a recovery distribution histogram 📊
  • Breadcrumbs and streaks now render a little better on mobile devices

  • The process to sync with WHOOP via the API has been massively streamlined on mobile devices
  • Clicking the fitIQ logo on mobile devices will now redirect you to your dashboard if you're logged in, rather than the home page

  • Free users can now sync twice a day (up from once a day)

June 7th 2023

  • 10 spots (actually 9 - I've got one of them!) are available to test API integration while WHOOP review the fitIQ API application submitted back in April. If you'd like to help test the API integraiton please do get in touch either via email or using the 'Leave feedback' link above.
