8.0.2
2023-09-17
Hey everyone! Bug fix update! Thanks to everyone for chatting with us to report these.
Copy to all
-----------
Fixed an issue where pressing copy to all on the weight log would not save.
Crashing
---------
Improved the app to help avoid it crashing.
Slow loading
-------------
We've changed the Home Screen to load in your Active Plans in groups of 3. We've discovered users are adding more plans to their home screen than it was designed to hold. Using it as a way to SAVE plans rather than where their Active Plans are kept. We do background loading to help Active Plans load faster which is causing the issue when there's larger quantities of plans active at one time. We'll improve things more in a future update to add the ability to bookmark plans you're interested in.
Subscribe Screen
------------------
We've updated the subscribe screen to better explain how trials work for new users.
Rest Timer
-----------
Please note that we're investigating the rest timer issues when leaving the app. Putting your screen to sleep or switching apps is forcing the timer to pause. To ensure the timer works correctly please stay inside the app until we release a fix.
Thank you from the team here at Gym Plan. Keep pushing for the results you deserve, remember it's all about consistency!

Hey everyone! Fixing some recently reported bug for you.
Did you know we write a blog for you to learn more about working out effectively. There's all kinds stuff to check out, including a popular article on "The Benefits Of Salt Pre-Workout".

Improvements
---------------
So far in App Version 7.4.*
• WARM UP SETS have been renamed to PREP SETS. That's what they are, a lighter set to prep your muscles for the movement pattern of the exercise. We made a mistake calling them Warm Ups as you'll generally do a full body warm prior to starting. (There's more coming to help you with normal warm ups by the way!)
• We have moved the FAILURE SETS settings to the 3-dot menu on each stage of the workout. This means you can manage what exercises are set to be FAILURE reps instead of blanket settings made on the whole workout. Learn more in the blog about the benefits of working out to failure and why you should be giving it a go!
----------
Bug Fixes
----------
In App Version 7.4.2
• Fixed an issue where the set tick icon sometimes displayed the wrong colour.
• Fixed an issue where the swapping an exercise didn't update the PREP SET details.
• Fixed an issue where un-completing a set didn't update the exercises cell (e.g. failure or prep)
In App Version 7.4.1
• Changing a weighted exercise for another weighted exercise removed the lbs/kg box. This is now fixed.
• Fixed an issue when you edit a set. The data being used for working sets was mistakengly retained from the PREP SET (previously warm up sets).
• Fixed an issue where setting up FAILURE SETS on a superset or triset would only apply to the first exercise.
• Fixed an issue with the target weight and reps not updating after a PREP SET is complete (previously warm up set).
• Fixed an issue with the log defaulting KG when LB is the preference.
• Fixed an issue where activating PREP SETS causes set tick icons to stop working.
• We fixed an issue when returning a FAILURE SET to an uncompleted state.
• Fixed an issue where in some cases you cannot uncomplete failure sets.
• Fixed an issue where FAILURE SETS were getting removed when a PREP SET is enabled.
• Fixed a display issue with PREP SETS.
• Fixed an issue where the large green WORKOUT COMPLETE button does not display upon completion.
Remember we're here to listen to your feedback and we prioritise our work based on what you all want us to make for you. As well as cool things we want to create for you this is an essential part of making the app better each month. So please reach out, we're always listening and love to hear from you.
All the best,
Dave, Paul, Radu & Mark.
