Verve 1.5.1 Accuracy fix for your weekly activity numbers. Your moderate and vigorous minutes — and Zone 2 — now come from your actual heart rate throughout a workout, not just its average. A run that starts easy, settles into Zone 2, and finishes hard now counts each portion correctly, instead of the whole session being labelled by one number. Zone 2 also now shows every aerobic session of your week, with a below/in/above-zone breakdown for each.

Your fitness, redrawn. Verve now has a design language all its own: • THE WEEKLY ASCENT — your week as a climb. The line rises with every moderate+vigorous minute, plateaus on rest days, and plants a flag the moment you cross WHO 150, your personal goal, or the AHA 300 summit. • SLOPELINES — 12-week trends as angled then→now lines: steeper = bigger change, colour = better or worse, goal dot on today. Biggest movers sort to the top. • DAY TERRAIN — your day as a mountain profile in Movement Balance: every hour's steps become elevation, long sits show as flat canyons. • Flags everywhere — every goal and target you hit plants a pennant. Progress rings are gone; flags climb poles instead. Smarter, more honest numbers: • Your weekly goal now counts actual moderate + vigorous minutes (WHO definition), with a full light/moderate/vigorous intensity bar and a tap-through that shows exactly what counts, what doesn't, and the MET-hours behind it. • Every strength and Zone 2 session now shows its own MET-hours — you're using a MET tracker, after all. • Zone 2 now counts only deliberate aerobic training — background movement and lifting no longer inflate it. • The 12-week CRF trend now knows when a change is a test-method difference (walk test vs maximal run) or a held-back effort — and says so instead of reporting a false decline. CRF, deeper: • Full-width CRF card with a Low→Elite position gauge for your age and sex, distance to your next tier, and the test + date behind the number. • Edit any past test with its real inputs — Cooper metres, 1.5-mile time, walk time + heart rate — and tag how hard you pushed. • New test methods: CPET (gold standard) and the 1-mile walk (Rockport). • Safety first: blood-pressure and health-screen gates before all-out field tests. Body page, cleaner: • Metabolic Health entry is now step-by-step cards with live in-range chips, matching Muscle Health. • Collapsible sections, clearer screening language, and health-context notes where results appear. Notifications, fewer and truer: • One Monday summary of your completed week, one reminder when a re-test is due (CRF every 6 weeks, body check-in every 8). The stale daily nudge is gone. Also: daily steps coloured by benefit tier, cadence zones always visible, a Free vs Pro comparison in Settings, Field Notes (our AI coach, renamed), the Expedition Ledger, in-app medical disclaimers where results appear, and a long list of accuracy fixes.

Version 1.4.0 — AI Coach, Blood Pressure & Body Health AI Coach — redesigned for clarity Your AI Coach now surfaces exactly two things: what you achieved this week (strength streak, CRF improvement) and one focused recommendation — no repetition, no walls of text. The weekly narrative uses precise numbers ("8.5 METs" instead of prose), and your body health data is now incorporated into every recommendation. Blood pressure from Apple Health The Metabolic Health card can now pull your 28-day blood pressure average directly from Apple Health — a clinically superior measure compared to a single reading. Systolic and diastolic fields auto-fill with the average from up to 50 readings. Body health history Prior metabolic and muscle health entries are now consolidated by date in the Trends page — one expandable card per day showing both markers side by side, with edit and delete controls. Fitness Snapshot Collapsed by default to reduce scroll. Expanding it reveals your activity and body paragraphs, milestone achievement, and AI-powered Improving / Lagging / On Track labels. Monthly AI allowance Free users now get 3 AI Coach uses per rolling 30 days instead of a 3-use lifetime cap. Fixes Zone 2 always displayed in minutes. Weekly notification now shows accurate MET-hours including background activity. CRF chart bands correctly anchored at zero. 27 architecture-level bug fixes.

New: Movement Balance — see your active, sedentary, and sleep hours broken down by day, with a full Mon–Sun week view. Apple Watch users also get standing time tracking. • Daily 8am notifications are now personalised to your actual activity • 12-Week AI Summary is now collapsible for a cleaner dashboard • Step cadence card shows your weekly average at a glance • 18 research studies now cited in Science settings

Polish & accuracy update. • AI Coach is now a single, focused recommendation each session — clearer next steps, every card backed by published research. • Zone 2 minutes display as whole numbers across the app. • "Prior 12 weeks" tab renamed to "Trends". • New on-dashboard prompt to enable notifications, so the daily check-in and Monday weekly summary actually arrive — fixes a setup-flow gap where notifications could only be turned on by digging into Settings. • Behind the scenes: cloud-sync queue race condition fixed, weekly export now uses local time zone, duplicate-activity cleanup is more thorough.

Major accuracy update. • Zone 2 minutes are now computed per-second from your Apple Watch heart-rate data, not from the workout's average. Old workouts will recompute on the next sync — no action needed. • New History layout: "Last week" and "Prior 12 weeks" tabs, with tappable Zone 2 and Strength cards that expand into a clean Mon–Sun day-by-day view. • Notifications fixed and rebuilt: daily morning check-in, Monday weekly summary. New "Send test notification" button in Settings to verify delivery. • CRF test page simplified — clearer assessment options, beta-blocker guidance always shown. • Step Cadence in History now matches the day-by-day numbers (no more phantom weekly peak). • Many under-the-hood fixes: cloud-sync reliability, week boundaries across time zones, duplicate-activity cleanup.
