Changelog

What's new in Assistant Coach. Most recent updates first.

November 12, 2026​

  • New: Log an in-person workout without creating a plan first. Repeat a past workout or start empty and add exercises as you go. Start from Calendar to link the workout to the booking.
  • Improved: Duplicate a session when building a workout plan. Clients can open every workout on a day with more than one and see their workout history even when they have no active plan.
  • Improved: Find the progress photo and measuring guides from your coach Home page, and watch the ChatGPT setup walkthrough under Settings → Connected apps.
  • Fixed: You can clear a session date in Calendar without the form crashing.
  • Improved in the client payments pilot: See an estimate of what's due after payment credit, alongside the regular plan price.

November 11, 2026​

  • New: Clients can see examples for front, side and back progress photos in their forms, plus where to place the tape when taking body measurements.

  • Improved: When you log a client's workout from Calendar, you can choose which workout they completed if their plan has more than one.

  • Fixed: Edits to a check-in reply draft are kept when you make them while a save is in progress.

  • Fixed in the client payments pilot: Payments reports choose their currency from payments in the selected period, so earlier payments in a different currency can't make a paid month look empty.

  • Improved: Watch a short Claude setup walkthrough from Settings → Connected apps.

November 10, 2026​

  • New: Try a read-only ChatGPT or Claude connection with your demo client on every plan. Pro lets you ask about your real clients too, including their logged workouts, meals, weigh-ins, habits and sessions.

  • New: Clients can open Coach's notes beside an exercise while logging a workout to revisit your earlier notes, replies and video feedback, without leaving their session.

  • Improved: Mark a whole day's meals reviewed in one step. Commenting on a form video clears that video's to-do while leaving the session ready for your review of its sets and notes.

November 7, 2026​

  • Improved in the client payments pilot: Click an income or upcoming-payment bar to see the people and payments behind it. The income card now leads with what you have received this month so far.

  • Improved in the client payments pilot: Matched clients with a failed payment see a Pay button in their client app unless you turn it off for them. You hear about successful payments even when that button is off.

  • Improved: Check-in replies explain whether sending will email your client, and ask before checkout would lose unsent photos or recordings.

  • Fixed: Signing out clears saved client drafts and offline workout data from the device. Switching to a different client also clears the previous client's saved data.

November 6, 2026​

  • New in the client payments pilot: A dedicated Payments page brings late payments, income, upcoming payments and client payment history together. Forecasts account for discounts, collection pauses and billing dates at the end of the month.

  • Improved: Coaches in the payments pilot hear about failed payments for every matched Stripe client. Clients are asked to pay in the client app only when their coach has switched that on.

  • Improved: A client's session pack stays on Overview, leaving their other tabs focused on the work at hand.

November 5, 2026​

  • Improved: Every coach can try barcode and nutrition-label scanning with their demo client. On Free, the scanner explains that real-client scanning is included on Starter and Pro.

November 4, 2026​

  • New: Clients can switch food amounts between grams and ounces, or millilitres, cups and fluid ounces. Their chosen unit stays with the meal and their saved usuals; coaches also see the metric amount.

  • Fixed: Editing the foods in a meal keeps its name and attached photos. Scanning products from the barcode library no longer uses up the limit for adding foods by hand.

  • Improved: A short client how-to video shows barcode and nutrition-label scanning, with updated help and plan details for Starter and Pro.

  • New: Add up to four images to feedback on a whole workout, with or without a written note. Clients see them beside that session.

  • New: Attach GIFs to check-in replies, meal comments, exercise comments and session feedback. They stay animated when clients read them or open them full size.

  • Fixed: Sending a drafted check-in reply keeps the check-in marked as reviewed. Notes and reply drawers now open below the header, and exercise history opens on Trends from a workout review.

  • Improved: Tabs, switches and status labels are easier to read in light and dark mode.

November 3, 2026​

  • New: Clients can tap a day in Nutrition trends to see its meals and totals, move between days, and edit a meal or reply to your note without leaving that day.

  • Fixed: After an upgrade or top-up, eligible automatic meal estimates catch up for today and yesterday. An open Meals screen clears the old top-up warning while keeping your reply draft, and optional one-off estimates clearly show their cost.

  • Improved: Clients can spot workouts with your feedback and read your form-video comments together in one coach note. Tapping a comment's time plays that moment with the video kept on screen; notifications open at the relevant comment.

October 30, 2026​

  • New: Check-in replies save as private drafts while you write, including photos and voice or video messages. Close the reply to keep reviewing the check-in, then pick up where you left off. Your client sees it only when you choose Send reply.

  • Improved: Session packs and Calendar now include walkthroughs for bookings, session notes and logging a client's workout. The guided tour for in-person and hybrid coaches walks through these steps with a demo client.

  • Improved: Saving a private session note keeps the session open, so Log workout is still a tap away.

  • Fixed: A client's workout overview now shows the cardio duration prescribed in their plan and uses it in the session's estimated length.

October 29, 2026​

  • Fixed: Sets that finish syncing after a workout has closed now stay in that workout. Its end time and personal bests update to include them, and an empty workout set aside before its sets arrive can recover those entries.

  • Fixed: A workout video that has already uploaded can finish saving after a lost reply without asking the client to attach it again. Video preparation also recovers from interruptions when an iPhone app goes into the background.

  • Improved: Workout controls are easier to tap on a phone. Tapping a filled-in number selects it for replacement, and entering a set no longer zooms the iPhone screen.

  • New: Broadcasts are available on Pro: write one message for all your clients, then see who has read it and how they reacted.

October 28, 2026​

  • New: Add a voice note to an exercise comment or to feedback on a whole workout. Clients can listen on that workout, so your cues and encouragement stay beside the session they refer to. Included on Starter and Pro.

  • Improved: Search an exercise on a client's Workouts tab to watch their latest video, with its date and your earlier feedback, without finding and opening the original session.

  • Fixed: Workout photos keep a usable preview after uploading, so clients can prepare their workout share card without reselecting the photo.

  • Fixed: Finishing a workout no longer describes a video that needs to be reselected as still uploading. Its exercise card keeps the guidance for trying again.

  • Fixed: Adding the same reply reminder twice at once now creates one to-do, keeping your follow-up list free of duplicates.

October 27, 2026​

  • New: Turn a client's reply notification into a dated to-do. The reminder links back to the reply, so you can return to the right check-in, meal or exercise when you're ready to respond.

  • Fixed: App updates no longer reload an open page when new code becomes available, helping you keep unsaved work in place. Opening a screen whose old code has been replaced can refresh once to load the current version.

October 26, 2026​

  • Fixed: Clients can resume a workout started offline after closing the app. Reconnecting keeps its sets attached to the same workout, and a saving problem now gives a clear warning while keeping the entries on the device for review.

  • New: Add a voice note when telling a client about a plan change. Your written and voice notes stay together on the plan in the client app, so clients can revisit your instructions.

  • Improved: A client's Nutrition and Workouts tabs now bring their logged meals and sessions into view, with the active plan ready to expand above them. Nutrition weeks with no meals also remain browsable for clients who have logged before.

  • Improved: Clients can choose a usual meal directly while logging, review its foods and amounts before saving, and give it a name for next time. Meals become usuals after two matching logs.

  • Improved: Flip and rotate progress photos independently when comparing them, and adjust workout-video volume with the speaker control on desktop. Goal-completion emails now include your message to the client.

  • Fixed: Demo workout plans with supersets can now be copied and saved with matching set counts.

  • Fixed: Workout plans with more than 20 sets for an exercise can be opened and edited without changing the saved prescription. Larger set counts are also kept when editing plans or creating exercises.

  • Fixed: After a client edits a meal, the client app keeps showing that its nutrition estimate is being updated and checks for the result. If the estimate service is busy, it tries again once rather than leaving the client waiting for the next scheduled check.

  • Fixed: Your video-review to-do now counts only videos still waiting for your feedback, so videos you have already answered no longer inflate the remaining work.

October 25, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients can add up to three photos to one meal, so separate dishes or courses stay together in the meal log. Meal estimates consider all attached photos together.
  • Improved: Search for clients by name when sending resources, assigning forms, or sharing plan templates, with selected clients kept visible as you choose.
  • Fixed: Saving a workout plan now includes the field you are still typing in, so your latest sets, reps, rest, weight, and notes are kept without clicking elsewhere first.

October 23, 2026​

  • Improved: Send several guides and videos to one client in a single step. If one item cannot be sent, the successful items stay shared and only the remaining items are left ready to try again.
  • Fixed: If the same workout plan is changed in another tab or window, Assistant Coach now protects the newer saved plan instead of overwriting it. Your unsaved edits stay in the editor until you choose whether to reload the latest version.

October 20, 2026​

  • Fixed: Meal plans now save cleanly as you add, remove, replace, or switch alternate meal options. If a day's foods exceed the plan's limits, Assistant Coach explains what to check and keeps your edits ready to correct.
  • Fixed: When the same exercise appears more than once in a planned workout, removing one occurrence from the workout logger now leaves the other occurrence and its logged sets in place.

October 18, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients can see their measurement trend from the beginning with All time, while 30d and 90d appear when their recorded history is long enough to make those views useful.
  • Fixed: When a meal has alternate options, Add food now names the exact option and lets you switch it before adding food. Meal plans also save cleanly after an option is removed, without asking the coach to repair the remaining option order.

October 17, 2026​

  • New: Add up to three approved swaps to a standalone exercise in a workout plan or template. If equipment is busy, you or your client can switch in the workout logger without changing the planned sets, reps or time, and rest; the finished workout shows which exercise was used instead.
  • Improved: Exercise searches now put name matches ahead of equipment- or muscle-only matches, so the movement you typed is easier to find near the top.

October 16, 2026​

  • New: Open Resources to find ready-made client how-to videos and coach walkthroughs from the Assistant Coach team. Send a helpful video to selected clients or everyone, and it appears in their client app with a notification and a New label until they play it.
  • Improved: Exercise searches now show the full number of matches and let you load every result, so a longer list of suitable exercises is no longer cut short.
  • Improved: Help guides now carry their original referral through sign-up, and clients who add the app to their Home Screen open at client sign-in instead of choosing an account type first.

October 15, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients now stay signed in for up to 21 days between visits, so a week or two away is less likely to interrupt their next workout, meal log, or check-in. Coach sessions keep their existing seven-day window.
  • Fixed: Timed and one-side-at-a-time exercises now follow the target you set in the workout plan, show each side where needed, and keep both the movement guidance and your client-specific note through active, resumed, and completed workouts.
  • Improved: Clients can give a just-logged meal a useful name straight away, instead of waiting until they have eaten it twice.
  • Improved: An empty client meal-plan area now offers the step-by-step meal-plan walkthrough until you build your first real plan, and goal setup explains which exercise and weight progress updates automatically.

October 14, 2026​

  • New: Clients can send one emoji or short reply to your check-in feedback. You get a notification that opens the reply, and Seen by … shows when they first opened your feedback, so you can tell whether your guidance reached them.
  • Improved: Give a client's meal plan a name such as Lean phase, or leave it unnamed. The name stays saved from the first save and appears in the client app; plans created from templates no longer inherit your private template label.
  • Improved: Open an exercise's logged history directly from the workout plan builder, so you can choose the next weights and reps without leaving the plan.
  • Improved: New plans and template assignments now explain that clients cannot see them until you activate them, and show where to take that next step.
  • Fixed: Nutrition weeks with no meals keep their navigation after you start browsing. Lead answers show your question labels, and workout photos stay visible while their previews load and when you open the share card.

October 13, 2026​

  • New: Add a voice note to a meal reply, with or without text or an image, so clients can hear your encouragement and tone in their client app. If you upgrade from the voice-note prompt, your unfinished reply is ready when you return.
  • Improved: Plan PDFs now keep Latin Extended and Cyrillic letters in coach and client names, exercises, foods, and notes, so coaches can export plans in their own language without missing characters.
  • Improved: Assigning a form from a client's Forms tab now shows only forms from My Forms, keeping shared starter examples out of the client workflow while leaving existing assignments unchanged.
  • Fixed: The client app now asks before discarding a workout that has logged sets, helping clients avoid losing a session they meant to save.
  • Fixed: Command/Ctrl + Enter now sends a plan-update note once, and Command + scroll zooms progress-photo comparisons on a Mac without turning ordinary page scrolling into zoom.

October 12, 2026​

  • Fixed: The meal-plan food picker now keeps its column labels visible in shorter browser windows, so coaches can still match foods with their amounts and macros while building a plan.
  • Improved: The founding-price note can now show the offer without an unnecessary tailored line, so each eligible coach sees only the message intended for them.

October 9, 2026​

  • Fixed: Exercise notes and set changes made while a workout is saving now keep the latest text, weights, reps, and deletions, including when the client taps Save immediately after typing.
  • Improved: Coaches can open a short client app tour beside an uninvited client's invite actions, and an empty Workouts tab now links to a step-by-step workout-program walkthrough.
  • Fixed: Meal plan templates now count meals rather than alternate options, so a plan with four meals and an alternate breakfast is shown as four meals, not five.
  • Improved: Each client app page now opens at the top, meal targets stay clearer on narrow screens, and coach-facing walkthrough videos are easier to find and browse.

October 8, 2026​

  • Fixed: Choosing a plan from the coach home note, Settings, or a locked feature now reaches checkout consistently. Optional visit and usage reporting can no longer interrupt sign-in, checkout, public coaching pages, or an assistant result.
  • Improved: Clients added from a spreadsheet now receive your active check-in form automatically, so an imported roster is ready for the next check-in without assigning the form client by client.
  • Improved: Meal reviews and workout plans now make better use of smaller screens. Meal rows restack instead of squeezing or scrolling sideways, workout exercises stack when a side panel leaves less room, and long exercise names, rep targets, and short rest periods stay clear.
  • Improved: Progress is easier to read at a glance: measurement changes use one direction arrow and follow the client's goal for their colour, photo comparisons stay centred, and a measurement logged today is labelled today in the client app.

October 6, 2026​

  • Improved: The founding-coach price is now explained at the top of the plan picker, including the 50% lifetime discount, when the offer closes, and that future features added to your chosen plan are included.
  • Fixed: Photos selected for an intake or check-in stay ready until the form is submitted, so clients on Android do not have to keep choosing the same photo again. If a photo cannot be read or uploaded, the client now gets a clear next step.
  • Fixed: Workout plan PDFs now use each session's name once, or a clear label such as Session 1 when no name was added.
  • Improved: If a client email is already in use, Assistant Coach now explains how to continue without revealing whether that person belongs to another coach.

October 4, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients can switch the Meals summary between today and yesterday, then log every missed meal to the selected day without changing it again after each save.

October 2, 2026​

  • Improved: Open a client's meal or workout plan in the same clear, read-only view used during check-ins, without leaving the page for a PDF tab. You can still download the PDF from the plan view.
  • Improved: Mid-week check-in and meal-log to-do switches now save as soon as you change them, confirm what will appear on your to-do list, and switch back if saving fails.
  • Fixed: Changing your password now signs out your other sessions while keeping the device you are using signed in, so an old login cannot continue using your account.

October 1, 2026​

  • Fixed: The fitness coaching software price comparison now calculates 1Fit's per-client charges in pounds before converting the full bill to dollars, and stops the TrueCoach estimate where public pricing ends, so your cost report does not present guessed or inflated prices.

September 30, 2026​

  • Fixed: Opening a notification about a client's reply to a meal comment now takes you to that exact meal, even when it was logged more than a week ago, so you can continue the conversation without searching through older days.

September 29, 2026​

  • New: Attach an existing video to a check-in reply, so you can share a screen recording or another prepared clip without recording it again inside Assistant Coach.
  • Improved: Clients can trim a form video before sending it and say which set it shows. During review, coaches see that set's weight and reps, can slow the video down, and can leave a voice note on the exact moment that needs feedback.
  • Improved: Correct an automatic meal estimate directly from the client's Meals tab. The day's totals update with the correction while the meal stays ready for your review.
  • Improved: Meal-plan targets now follow what the plan's main meals add up to when you save, so the client app, logging guidance, check-ins, and PDFs use the same daily numbers. Plans opened from a check-in also use the familiar plan view instead of a PDF preview.

September 28, 2026​

  • Improved: A client's Meals tab now keeps every logged day in one table. Finished days fold to a quick daily total, older days load without splitting their meals, and opening a meal shows its foods in the same columns; uncertain ingredients in automatic estimates are clearly marked for review.
  • Improved: Daily habit progress is easier to read. Scale answers such as mood or energy follow a word-labelled trend line, number charts stay anchored to the target instead of stretching around one high result, and Add habit now sits directly below the habit list.
  • Improved: Pause and resume a voice message while recording, so an interruption does not use up the five-minute recording time or force you to start again.
  • Improved: Form videos from the same client now arrive as one review task, the client-page back button returns you to the page you came from, and check-in reminder emails pause after three missed cycles until the client checks in again.

September 26, 2026​

  • Improved: A meal plan now shows its protein per kilogram or pound beside the protein total, using the client's latest weight. Point to the figure to compare the plan with the target and see which weight it uses.
  • Improved: Removing one of your own exercises now keeps past workout records intact. If a current workout plan or template still uses it, Assistant Coach names exactly where to remove it first.
  • Improved: Visitors can open your photo full screen from your public coaching page, making the coach behind the page easier to see before they get in touch.

September 25, 2026​

  • Improved: Plan choices now open where you reach a client or assistant-action limit, with monthly and yearly prices side by side. If you upgrade while adding a client or writing a check-in reply, Assistant Coach keeps that work ready for when you return from checkout.
  • Improved: Starter and Pro coaches can switch plan or billing interval without creating a second subscription. The plan picker shows the price change before you confirm, and Settings keeps your current plan, client use, and assistant-action allowance together.
  • Improved: Voice and video replies now explain what your client will receive before a Free coach chooses a plan. Automatic meal estimates also show clearly that they are included on Pro wherever the setting appears.
  • Improved: A client's nutrition target history now opens as a compact dated list, so you can see exactly what changed without reading a dense chart.

September 24, 2026​

  • Improved: Build a client's whole meal plan in one day sheet, with daily targets kept in view and every meal, food, amount, and macro visible together. Add foods from one dialog, add the same food to several meals, and switch between alternate meals without losing your place.
  • Improved: Foods you use most now appear first and start with your usual amount, while food search also matches brands. Nutrition totals now scale from the food's real serving, so entries such as one scoop keep the calories and macros you expect.
  • Improved: Settings now makes plan allowances clearer, including voice notes on Starter and Pro and 500 monthly assistant actions on Pro.

September 23, 2026​

  • New: Meal and workout plan PDFs now carry your name and brand, with your photo and chosen website or Instagram link at the end. Choose which links appear from Settings → Account & Profile before you export.
  • Improved: Open Coach Response and start writing straight away, or generate a draft from the same reply box. Removing the only voice or video message from an otherwise empty reply now asks before deleting the reply.
  • Fixed: Number fields across meal plans, workouts, goals, habits, forms, and settings can now be cleared and retyped without snapping to 0 or 1. Arrow steps also match what you are entering, such as 0.1 for protein per kg, 15 seconds for rest, and 500 for daily steps.

September 22, 2026​

  • New: Add a voice note of up to 5 minutes to a check-in reply, with or without written feedback, so clients can hear your encouragement and tone in their client app. Voice notes are included on Starter and Pro.
  • Improved: Build each workout session in a spreadsheet-style table, move through sessions with tabs, and open All sessions to compare the client's whole training week side by side before you save it.
  • Improved: Common scale habits such as energy, stress, mood, and digestion are now ready to choose when setting up a client's daily habits. After a client answers a scale, it folds to the chosen word with a simple edit action, keeping today's habits quicker to scan.

September 21, 2026​

  • New: Draw directly on any photo attached to a check-in response before or after sending it. The marked-up copy replaces the original in the response, and both you and your client see the whole image without cropped edges.
  • Improved: New-client setup items now appear as Intake on your to-do list and have their own Intakes filter, so they stay separate from regular check-ins while opening and reviewing them works the same way.
  • Improved: Opening a day from a client's nutrition chart now shows the day's total and every meal in one table. You can compare meals with the plan, mark each one reviewed, reply, and step to nearby days without closing the view.
  • Improved: Workout reviews now let you move through the client's full session history, including when you start from a check-in. Sent session feedback appears as a coach note that you can edit or remove, and clients see the same note in their client app.
  • Improved: Progress photos are larger and easier to inspect in both the check-in viewer and the Photos tab, with a clear full-screen action plus zoom, move, rotate, and reset controls for coaches.
  • Fixed: Repeated copies of the same message no longer stack over the screen, and messages keep a comfortable margin from phone edges.

September 20, 2026​

  • Improved: Client cards now show whether someone still needs an invite or has not finished setting up their client app, with the invite action ready on the card. Invites also explain what happens after the client taps the email, and a second quick click can no longer send another email with a replacement link.
  • Fixed: Phone workout videos now keep the right orientation after compression. If an older clip still appears sideways, coaches can rotate it while reviewing and capture feedback on the same view they see.

September 19, 2026​

  • New: Clients can rate each exercise as Easy, Moderate, or Hard after logging their sets. When you review the workout, rep-based exercises also show how many reps they felt they had left, giving you useful effort context without asking for a separate message.
  • Improved: Client setup emails now mention meal and workout logging, so new clients know what they can start using in the client app.
  • Fixed: Multiple-choice and dropdown answers now keep option labels that contain commas, so forms save and display the wording you entered.

September 18, 2026​

  • Improved: Account setup, password and email verification, check-in, plan update, and coach activity emails now use one clear button for the next action, making the link easier to spot and tap.
  • New: The public website now offers a direct look at the sample client app. Coaches can scan a QR code on desktop or open it in one tap on their phone, so they can see the client experience before signing up.

September 17, 2026​

  • New: Each client page now brings that client's open to-dos together on Overview. A count beside their name also shows where attention is needed, so you can move from your client list straight to the work for that person.
  • New: Newly verified coaches now receive one short welcome email pointing them to Emma, their coaching page, and the quickest way to add a real client.
  • Improved: Client setup emails now greet each client by first name, making the invitation from their coach feel more personal.
  • Fixed: Activating a workout or meal plan now always uses the notification-aware action, so a generic plan update cannot silently bypass the client's plan notification.
  • New: A public sample client app is available for exploring Emma's workouts, check-ins, nutrition, progress, and resources without signing in or changing any real client data.

September 15, 2026​

  • New: Progress photos can now open as a Journey so far, showing up to six evenly spaced moments from the start through the latest check-in. Coaches can swap the weeks shown, zoom, move, or rotate each photo in place, while clients get the same clear multi-week view in the client app.
  • Improved: Check-in answers now keep the question hints clients saw when they filled in the form. Coaches and clients can read short or numbered answers in context, and the assistant uses the same hints when preparing a reply draft.
  • Improved: Asking for an exercise video is quicker with one-tap Side angle, Front angle, and Back angle prompts. The check-in reply box also keeps writing tools together and separates the final send step, making responses easier to finish.
  • Improved: Links to a specific page now return signed-out coaches or clients there after sign-in, instead of dropping them on the home screen.
  • Improved: The website builder can start with a suggested address and now shows exactly what is still needed before publishing. It also distinguishes an available address from one that is taken, not allowed, or could not be checked.

September 14, 2026​

  • New: Clients can log weight and body measurements directly from the client app, follow each trend over time, and correct or remove their latest manual entry. Measurements from check-ins stay in the same history, so progress is easier to follow between check-ins.
  • New: Clients can add a missed workout photo from Workout History, then share it with their session stats and an optional Coached by credit to your brand. They can choose the photo's look, replace it, or remove it from the workout later.
  • Fixed: Check-ins now point to the exact number that needs correcting and keep the client's answers and uploaded photos ready to submit again. Downloaded plans and data backups also keep readable names for clients and coaches whose names use non-English characters.

September 12, 2026​

  • Fixed: Help links and guidance now match the current apps. Billing opens the Assistant Actions guide, clients are directed to their coach when they need support, and the roadmap guide no longer points to a missing sidebar link.

September 11, 2026​

  • New: On Pro, the assistant now prepares meal estimates and workout-video form review drafts automatically, without using assistant actions. Coaches on Free or Starter can still request either review when they want one, while demo clients continue to show the automatic workflow for every coach.
  • Improved: AI credits are now called assistant actions throughout the coach app. Each review or draft you request uses one action, so the balance is easier to understand and compare across plans; Stripe receipts and checkout records may still use the previous AI-credit name.
  • Fixed: Meal estimates based on a client's plan now keep their confidence level and keep calories aligned with the estimated macros, making the nutrition summary more consistent when a client describes a familiar meal.

September 10, 2026​

  • Improved: The notification bell is now a standard part of both the coach and client apps. Replies, workout feedback, comments, completed goals, and plan updates stay together in the app without depending on a rollout setting.
  • Fixed: Completed workouts now read back in the order the client trained them, with untouched exercises clearly separated underneath. Reordering exercises during a workout is saved too, so the client and coach see the same sequence afterwards.
  • Improved: Meal estimates can use a client's planned ingredients and portions when their note or photo supports a match. Notes such as “usual breakfast, but half the oats” can account for the change without listing the whole meal again. Check the ingredient details when a photo is unclear; estimates can still misidentify foods.
  • Improved: New demo workspaces now include a realistic superset, saved repeat meals, food-by-food nutrition history, and a completed video form review, making more of the coaching workflow ready to explore before inviting a client.

September 9, 2026​

  • New: Your client is told when you activate a workout or meal plan, in their app and by email, so you no longer have to send a separate "the new plan is up" message. You see what was sent before and after it goes.
  • New: After you edit a plan a client already has, the plan card offers to let them know, with an optional line explaining the change. Your edits stay live as soon as you save them either way — the reminder only controls whether the client gets a heads-up, so rebuilding a block over several sittings still sends one message.
  • Improved: After a client finishes a workout, they now see the finished stats card before choosing a photo. One clear Share action opens their phone's share sheet; where that is unavailable, it is labelled Save instead.
  • Improved: Workout plan PDFs now put your plan description directly under the title and remove the repeated overview block, so the purpose of the plan is easier to spot before the sessions begin.
  • Improved: Coach screens now consistently call the plan your client follows their active plan, matching the Active label on the plan itself.

September 7, 2026​

  • Fixed: Adding exercises to older workout plans now keeps their numbering consistent, including when adding to several sessions at once. Supersets and circuits stay together when the plan is saved.

  • Improved: Foods a client logs often now rise above equally close search matches, making repeat meal logging quicker without hiding a better match.

  • Improved: The coach home page now leads with work that needs attention instead of empty overdue sections. Lane filters use clear names and counts, so the next useful task is easier to spot.

  • Fixed: When automatic meal estimates cannot start because AI credits have run out, the meal stops showing as pending and tells the coach what happened. Clients only see that the estimate is unavailable.

  • Improved: Open an exercise's full progress trend directly from its personal-best history in a check-in, without leaving the review flow.

  • Improved: Workout exercise rows now keep common actions visible and place grouping and moving under clearly named options, making plans easier to edit on touch screens.

  • Improved: Emma's new demo workspaces show both photo-based nutrition estimates and meals logged as individual foods. Her coach chart opens a week with meal logs when the current week is empty, so you can explore the nutrition workflow before inviting a client.

September 3, 2026​

  • Improved: Reorder exercises around a superset or circuit without breaking the group, or move an exercise straight to another workout session. This makes it quicker to reshape a client's week while keeping grouped work together.
  • Fixed: Workout plan details and session changes now stay together until you save the complete plan, so editing a plan's name or guidance cannot replace exercise changes you made at the same time.
  • Improved: Workout plan PDFs now include the plan description, and Neck is available when choosing an exercise's muscle group, so exported guidance and exercise records carry the detail you intended.
  • Improved: Calories and macros now line up consistently across nutrition journal cards with a photo, note, or food log, making a client's meals easier to scan.

September 2, 2026​

  • Improved: Every meal in a client's Nutrition journal now shows calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat at a glance, whether the client logged foods directly or shared a photo or note. Planned targets sit alongside the totals when available, while the ingredient detail and estimate reasoning stay one click away.
  • Fixed: Clicking Save more than once while creating a workout plan no longer creates duplicate plans. One save finishes at a time, and a failed save can still be retried normally.
  • Fixed: Nutrition screens now stay open when an older meal estimate contains an unexpected macro range, so coaches and clients can keep reviewing the meal instead of seeing the page fail.

September 1, 2026​

  • Improved: Nutrition trend values now stay readable on phones, including low-to-high ranges that split neatly across two lines instead of crowding neighbouring days.
  • Improved: When drawing on a workout video frame or meal photo, coaches can now choose green to mark what a client should keep doing, alongside the existing correction colours.
  • Improved: To-do timing settings now show each value together with its unit — such as “24 hours” — so review deadlines are quicker to scan and adjust.

August 28, 2026​

  • New: Clients can bring back meals they eat regularly in one tap. Their recent and repeat meals now appear in food search, and they can give a meal a name, change its foods later, or remove it from their usuals without changing meals they already logged.
  • Improved: The Added by you filter now keeps a client's own named meals and foods together, so the things they created are easy to find without searching the full library or adding a duplicate.
  • Fixed: Sheets and food-search screens now keep the page behind them still, so a client can scroll, tap, and type inside an open layer without the nutrition screen moving or swallowing the first tap.

August 27, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients who add their own foods can now find them again quickly. A new "Added by you" filter in food search lists just the foods they've added, with the ones they log most at the top and a reminder of when they last used each. Their own foods also now rank higher in ordinary search, so a home recipe or local takeaway comes up when they type its name.

August 26, 2026​

  • New: The weekly nutrition bars are now clickable. Pick any day — on a check-in or on a client's Meals tab — to open that day's meals, where you can read the notes, see the estimates, and reply without leaving what you were reading.
  • Improved: The Coach Assistant now keeps the right client in mind across follow-up questions, so you can ask about a client's intake or nutrition and continue with natural questions such as “What macros should I give her?” without naming them again.
  • Improved: Calories now stay aligned with the protein, carbohydrates, and fat entered when coaches set meal-plan targets or add foods, and when clients add a missing food. You can still type over the calculated figure when a food label differs, while the macro calculator clearly separates its suggestion from the target you choose.
  • Fixed: Meal-photo estimates now identify what the client actually ate from their photo and note without borrowing ingredient names from the planned meal. Planned calories and macros still provide the comparison, making reviews less likely to include a food that was only on the plan.
  • Improved: Clients can find more everyday foods in search, add the same ingredient to separate meal options without a duplicate warning, and use new single-leg press and calf-extension machine exercises in workout plans.
  • Improved: Client meal logs stay in the Nutrition journal without creating a new bell notification for every meal, keeping the notification list focused on activity that needs a coach's attention. Food search and check-in training details also stay easier to read while scrolling.

August 25, 2026​

  • New: Clients can now log meals by searching for foods and entering the amount they ate, with an option to add their own food when it is missing. They can review, edit, or delete the meal, and add an optional photo or note; you see the same food and macro breakdown in their Nutrition journal without waiting for an estimate.
  • New: Each client's Meals tab now gives you a quick view of this week's calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat. The same nutrition glimpse appears alongside a check-in, so recent eating patterns are easier to discuss while you review progress.
  • Improved: Meal history stays easier to follow when clients log meals later in the day, and the client app keeps today's nutrition summary visible before the first meal. Meal photos also finish saving sooner on slower connections.
  • Improved: Exercise personal records opened from a check-in now lead straight to the workout review's set-by-set detail, making it quicker to understand what changed.

August 24, 2026​

  • Fixed: When a client enters an invalid number in a check-in, the client app now highlights the exact question and explains what to correct without clearing their answer. Check-in questions also keep the wording you wrote, so clients see your form exactly as you intended it.

August 20, 2026​

  • New: Meal logs no longer have to appear on your to-do list. Under Settings → Your to-do list, Add meal logs to my to-do list turns those to-dos off, and each client has the same switch under Nutrition → Meals so you can keep them for the clients who need close nutrition attention. Clients keep logging either way, you still see every meal, and switching them back on brings back anything you have not reviewed. See Profile & Preferences.
  • Improved: When a workout has no new clip for an exercise, you can now open the latest video that client shared for it without leaving the session review. The earlier video is clearly dated and stays read-only, so you can compare their current work with the last form you saw while keeping today’s feedback separate. See Exercise Videos & Workout Photos.
  • Early access: Selected coaches can now send one short email the morning after a client misses a check-in. It only sends if the form is still outstanding, never repeats for the same weekly check-in, and pauses from the fourth missed week until the client checks in again. Coaches with access can turn it off under Settings → Communication settings. See Check-in Emails.

August 18, 2026​

  • New: An Indian packaged food library is available under Food libraries in your settings. Switch it on and 929 branded products your Indian clients actually buy appear in the meal plan food search — Amul dairy, Britannia and Parle biscuits, Haldiram's namkeen, Maggi noodles, Epigamia and Milky Mist yoghurt, and protein bars from Yoga Bar and The Whole Truth. It is off by default, so nothing changes for coaches who do not need it.
  • New: Clients can correct their latest check-in until you review it or reply. The same check-in is updated in place, so wrong numbers do not create duplicate entries or misleading trend points, and you can see when the client last made a change.

August 17, 2026​

  • Improved: Your to-do list now sorts by the kind of work waiting. Tap "3 form videos" or "4 check-ins" to see just those and work through them in one go, instead of switching between videos, check-ins and meal reviews one at a time. Each button shows how many are waiting and how many are running late.
  • Improved: Every kind of to-do now has its own icon and colour, so you can tell a check-in from a form video at a glance. Rows are shorter and say how late something is in plain words — "2 days overdue" rather than a date you have to work out.
  • Fixed: Workout logging now keeps the set number and entered values steady while a save finishes, so clients do not see the logger jump ahead or lose their place on a slower connection.
  • Improved: Notes and written answers now keep their original line breaks across check-ins, meal and workout plans, resources, and coach to-dos, making longer guidance easier to read.
  • Fixed: Google sign-in now appears reliably on narrow phone screens for both coaches and clients.

August 15, 2026​

  • Fixed: Saved workout sets now stay visible while the client app catches up after a weak or offline connection. A slower refresh can no longer replace a newer saved set, so clients can keep logging without completed work disappearing.

August 14, 2026​

  • Improved: Meal plan PDFs now label each meal as breakfast, lunch, dinner, or another meal type. When a meal has alternatives, the PDF numbers the options clearly so clients know to choose one rather than eat them all.

August 13, 2026​

  • Improved: Alternate meals are easier to build and reuse. Add an alternate from the meal heading, rename it in place, compare its foods and macros, and choose which option is primary. Alternates now stay attached when you duplicate a meal plan or save it as a reusable template.
  • Improved: Meal-photo reviews now use one AI credit, and competing review requests recover without leaving estimates stuck or using an extra credit.
  • Improved: While reviewing a workout, coaches can see their most recent note for each exercise, making it easier to follow up on the same cue. Coach saves also keep working after opening the demo client app in another tab.

August 12, 2026​

  • Improved: Workout sets recover more reliably when a phone's local storage stalls. The client app checks whether a save actually completed before retrying, keeps the page and background sync from competing, and only asks the client to try again when the set was not saved.
  • Improved: Meal calorie and protein estimates are less likely to remain stuck loading when several meals are logged close together. If an estimate is no longer available, the client app now stops the loading animation instead of leaving it spinning indefinitely.
  • Improved: Coaches can paste a copied image straight into a meal-review reply, and custom meal-option names are safely preserved as plain text in exported PDFs.

August 9, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients see recent check-ins sooner, then can load older weeks five at a time, so long histories stay quick to open without hiding past progress.

August 7, 2026​

  • New: Clients can open their active meal plan as a clear, phone-friendly page in the client app, with daily targets, coach notes, portions, and per-meal guidance. Meals now has its own tab, while coach-shared files and links live under Resources.
  • New: Offer clients more than one option for a meal. Add a main option plus any number of alternates — a quick backup for busy days, a dining-out choice, or interchangeable breakfasts. Clients see every option in their plan and on the PDF and follow whichever suits their day; the main option is what counts toward their daily targets.
  • Improved: Supersets and circuits are now available to every coach. The Meal Plan Builder also adapts more cleanly to narrow screens, and video feedback now guides coaches to pin a cue, drawing, or reference photo to the right moment.
  • Improved: Open Emma's client app in a separate tab without copying login details or leaving your coach account. The demo stays clearly marked, and anything you enter remains on Emma's demo profile.
  • Improved: Client setup emails now explain how to add the client app to a phone for one-tap access, expired setup links give a clear recovery step, and the coach assistant can answer intake and nutrition questions from the client's recorded answers.
  • Improved: Home and client check-in screens now load with fewer unnecessary waits on slow connections, and meal photos recover more reliably when the connection drops or stalls.
  • Fixed: Exact nutrition estimates now show one value instead of a repeated range, and branded protein-bar quantities are matched more reliably when clients describe what they ate.

August 6, 2026​

  • Improved: Completed supersets and circuits are easier to read as one group, with each exercise labelled by its place in the group and sets shown as rounds. The exercise list also works more smoothly by keyboard, and a stalled local save now stops with clear retry guidance instead of hanging.
  • Fixed, rolling out gradually: The coach assistant now describes to-dos by their real due status—such as overdue, due today, or upcoming—and will not invent an “important” or “high priority” label that was never recorded.

August 5, 2026​

  • Improved: Move between workout sessions from one compact tab row, so you can switch days without opening and closing large cards. Supersets and circuits are also easier to follow in the client app and clearer in exported workout PDFs.
  • Improved: Client photo check-ins now recover more helpfully when a selected photo cannot be read: written answers stay saved, only the affected photo needs choosing again, and coaches see a loading placeholder while intake photos are prepared.
  • Improved: New coach signups now link clearly to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before account creation, with the accepted Terms version recorded alongside the account.

August 4, 2026​

  • Improved: Build or update a superset or circuit from one clear exercise list. Choose every exercise that belongs together, set the rounds once, and add or remove exercises later without rebuilding the group.
  • Improved: Clients get clearer circuit guidance before and during a workout, including the exercise order, rounds, and where they are in the group. Daily nutrition summaries also avoid repeating the same exact estimate twice.
  • Fixed: If a workout plan cannot save because an exercise is no longer available, the message now names the exercise when possible and explains what to do next.

August 3, 2026​

  • Fixed: Supersets and circuits now stay grouped from the moment a client previews a workout through every round they log, including when they start offline. Clients see the exercises, shared rounds, and rest together before starting, instead of the workout silently falling back to a flat exercise list.

August 2, 2026​

  • New, rolling out gradually: Build supersets and circuits directly in workout plans and reusable templates. Link exercises that should run back-to-back, choose shared rounds and between-round rest, and the client app guides each exercise and round in order. Existing plans without groups continue to work as before.
  • Improved: Meal estimates, meal photos, and the notification badge now recover more reliably after a weak connection, an expired image link, or time away from the app, so clients see finished estimates and coaches see new activity without repeatedly refreshing.
  • Improved: Photo uploads are prepared before sending across progress updates, forms, meals, profiles, and feedback. This keeps uploads smaller where possible, while workout feedback with photos posts sooner because preview work now finishes in the background.

August 1, 2026​

  • New: Clients can now log any meal, not just the ones in their plan. When adding a meal they tap a common meal — Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, or Snack — or name their own, so every log arrives clearly labelled instead of as a vague "other". Especially helpful if you set calorie and protein targets without fixed meals: your clients can still log everything they eat, each meal named for you.
  • Improved: Meal logging now asks clients for a fuller description when calorie and protein estimates are enabled, helping the estimate account for ingredients, rough amounts, oils, sauces, drinks, and sides that a photo can miss.
  • Improved: AI tools now show the credits used and the real balance left, including top-ups, so you can see the cost before you run them and the updated balance afterwards.
  • Improved: Destructive actions now use clear in-app confirmation screens that explain what will be removed before you continue.

July 25, 2026​

  • Improved: Meal photos and image-based feedback now open much faster on weaker connections. Journals and comment threads load a lightweight preview first, while the full-quality image is fetched only when you open it.
  • Improved: Calorie and protein estimates are cleaner to scan in client meal history, daily summaries, trends, and coach meal reviews, without extra approximation symbols beside the values.

July 24, 2026​

  • Improved: Add a food to several meals at once in the Meal Plan Builder. Choose the meals together, set the quantity once, and confirm — useful for shared foods such as cooking oil, vegetables, or supplements.

July 23, 2026​

  • Fixed: Clients brought in through an import can now be invited when you are ready. Send setup email and Copy invite link prepare their client app access automatically, while importing alone still sends nothing.

July 22, 2026​

  • New: The quick guided tour now tailors itself to how you coach. When you start it, we ask whether your clients are online, in person, or a mix, and shape the walkthrough to match. If you coach in person, it shows how to log workouts and record progress on a client's behalf, even for clients who never open the app. You can update how you coach, or restart the tour, anytime from Settings.

July 21, 2026​

  • New: When you reply to a client's meal photo, you can add an image to make your point. Draw on photo lets you circle a portion or mark a swap right on their meal; Add image attaches a reference picture from your device. It sends with your note, and the client's original photo is never changed.

July 17, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients can tap the trend icon on an exercise PR goal to see how that exercise is progressing across logged workouts, then switch to the underlying workout history without leaving the goal.

July 16, 2026​

  • New: Your Clients page now shows who hasn't joined their client app yet. Clients who haven't set up their login get a badge — "Not invited yet" or "Hasn't joined yet" — plus a one-tap Send setup email button right on their card, and their page puts Resend Setup Email and Copy Invite Link front and centre. Copy the link and send it over WhatsApp or text if email isn't landing; everything switches back to normal the moment they're in.

July 15, 2026​

  • New: Coaches can request a form video for a specific exercise and add an optional filming note. Clients see the request before the workout and at the exercise while logging; the request clears after the requested video is successfully attached to a completed workout. This feature is rolling out gradually.

July 14, 2026​

  • Improved: Replace the PDF or video behind an existing client resource without deleting it or sharing it again. The resource keeps its name, client note, and audience, while clients see the new file the next time they open it.

July 13, 2026​

  • New: Coaches on every plan, including Free, can buy one-time AI credit top-ups when they need more credits without changing plans. Choose 40 credits for £5, 100 credits for £10, or 250 credits for £20; purchased credits never expire.

July 7, 2026​

  • New: The check-in review now has a Training this check-in section. When your client logs their workouts in the app, you'll see the week at a glance — which days they trained, any new personal bests, and one-tap access to review each session — right alongside their check-in. If you'd rather not ask, you can drop the "how did your workouts go?" question from your form.

June 21, 2026​

  • New: Coaches can turn on Remind me to check in mid-week in Settings. Assistant Coach adds a to-do for each active client around the middle of their check-in week, so proactive follow-ups do not slip through the cracks.

June 9, 2026​

  • New: Comment on any exercise in a client's workout. Open a completed workout and, under each exercise, tap Add a comment to reply to what they did — whether or not they filmed it. Add a short note and up to four photos; your client sees it as a Your coach note right under their own note and gets a notification. One comment per exercise, and you can edit or remove it anytime.

June 6, 2026​

  • New: Client Resources — upload PDFs and MP4 videos once, then share them with selected clients or everyone from the new Resources area.
  • Improved: Clients can open coach-shared guides and videos inside their Plans tab, with in-app PDF and video previews instead of being sent to a new browser tab.
  • Improved: Resource videos are optimized before upload when the browser can safely shrink them, helping larger welcome or coaching videos upload faster.

June 5, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients can add one workout note at any point while logging a session, save it with Done, edit it again on the summary, and see it clearly in coach workout review.

May 26, 2026​

  • Improved: Reviewing client workout videos got a big upgrade — tap + Add comment on the video to pause it, grab the current moment, and leave a note (and an optional drawing) pinned to that exact second. Past comments now show as blue markers on the timeline and as a quick comments list.

May 25, 2026​

  • New: Workout video feedback now supports timestamped notes, image attachments, frame capture with simple annotation, and tap-to-seek review for coaches and clients

May 13, 2026​

May 13, 2026​

  • New: Meal-plan calorie & macro calculator rebuilt as a 3-step wizard (Profile → Goal → Macros) with a recap strip that keeps BMR and TDEE visible the whole way through
  • Improved: Age, gender, and height answers from the intake form now sync to the client profile automatically, so the calculator and trend analysis no longer start empty

May 12, 2026​

  • New: Clients can read their own previously-written exercise notes while logging a workout and on each workout's detail page — today's note and prior notes are merged into one journal-style list

May 7, 2026​

  • New: Plan templates — build a reusable workout or meal plan structure once, then assign it to any client as a draft you can tweak before activating

May 2, 2026​

  • New: Client workout calendar — clients can scan completed workout days by month and tap a day to open the workout detail

April 21, 2026​

  • New: Workout plan coverage analysis — get an AI-assisted review of body-part coverage, split balance, gaps, and overlap directly inside the workout builder

April 20, 2026​

  • New: Coach data export — download a ZIP of your core structured workspace data from Settings

April 17, 2026​

  • Improved: Clients can add per-exercise notes during workout logging, and coaches now see those notes in workout review

March 30, 2026​

  • New: Workout PR badges — personal records highlighted for coaches and clients
  • New: Exercise notes visible during active workouts
  • New: Blog reactions — react to blog posts with a like

March 26, 2026​

  • New: Click-to-copy client email on dashboard header
  • Improved: FitNotes import preview UX on mobile
  • Improved: Exercise trend graph now works with a single data point
  • Fixed: Client setup email showed 24h expiry instead of actual 72h
  • Fixed: All client goals now visible in client app (removed artificial limit)

March 16, 2026​

  • New: Import exercise history from FitNotes CSV
  • Improved: Goal cards show last progress update timestamp

March 12, 2026​

  • Improved: Client setup email redesigned to feel coach-sent
  • New: Resend client setup email button with extended 72-hour validity

March 8, 2026​

  • New: Workout Logger — clients log workouts in real time with rest timer, exercise history, PR detection, video recording, drag-and-drop reordering, and offline sync
  • New: Coach guided onboarding walkthrough

March 3, 2026​

  • Fixed: Workout "last done" now uses calendar days instead of elapsed time
  • Fixed: Goal card text overlap at low progress percentages
  • Fixed: Todo "This Week" uses Monday–Sunday calendar week boundaries

February 26, 2026​

  • New: Email & password login — sign in with email and password as an alternative to Google
