Every heart-rate reading your Apple Watch takes now counts. Newer watches can measure your heart every few seconds, but Vigor used just one of those readings every five minutes at rest. It now uses all of them, day and night, so your energy follows your heart more closely - and it may read slightly differently from before on a watch that measures often. An event's heart-rate chart also says how many readings it is drawn from, and leaves a gap where nothing was measured instead of drawing a line across it. - See what your friends see. Tap your own name in the Circle tab to see exactly what each friend receives from you, and change it right there. - The choices you set for new friends now apply when you add someone. - Every friend's number says how long ago it was measured, so an old number no longer passes for a fresh one. And when your phone hears from a friend, it now sends your latest number back. - Charts open full screen only when you tap them - not after you drag along the line, tap a bubble, or open "What the lines mean". - On the Apple Watch: tapping the Tonight complication opens the Tonight page, and Tonight now plans with your own recent nights, as your iPhone does. - Wrist temperature shows the change from your usual level, as its explanation always said. - The Metric units switch works: turn it off for Fahrenheit and Calories. - Cardio fitness shows how much it has changed over time. - Insights: workout-day averages include yesterday, and the workout card appears only when there is something to compare. - Data coverage no longer reads "91 of the last 90 days". - The medium widget no longer cuts its title short. - German: spelling corrected in 28 phrases. Requires iOS 26 and watchOS 26.

Solving some bugs. The app now speaks your language in the places it never did. The very first thing iOS shows you - the screen asking permission to read your health data - was in English whatever language your phone was set to. So were Siri's phrases, about half of the Apple Watch app, and most of the watch complications. They are translated now, in all ten languages, along with around a hundred phrases elsewhere that had lost their accents or had never been translated at all. - Friend connections check themselves now. Each time you open the app, Vigor confirms that what it published for a friend is really on iCloud, and publishes it again if it is not. A connection left half-finished by an earlier version repairs itself: nothing to reinstall, nothing to re-add, nothing to tap. - If a friend reinstalled Vigor, or turned sharing off and on, their phone lost every trace of you and would never have found the connection again. Yours now asks them once more, and they just accept. - A friend's number no longer blinks out because the network hesitated for a moment. - On the Apple Watch: tag names, what Siri says back, and the sleep and tag complications are all in your language. - The technical "Connection details" panel at the bottom of the Circle tab is off by default now. Turn it on in Settings, under Data, if you ever need to report a problem. Requires iOS 26 and watchOS 26.

- New in Rhythm: how regular your sleep pattern is, scored from your own nights, and your social jetlag - the gap between your weekday and your weekend body clock. - Your circadian clock is fitted more carefully and now says how sure it is, instead of printing one time as though it were certain. - Overnight heart rate variability is read from your watch's own nightly measurement where it is available, and Vigor picks one representative reading per night rather than averaging across the day. - The day chart has room to breathe. The paragraph under it became a key you can read at a glance, with the full wording one tap away, and the plot gets the space that paragraph was taking - most of all in French and German, where it was worst. The circadian dial works the same way now. - History colours each day by the same value the list shows. They disagreed, so a day could be green in the calendar and blue in the list. You can also page a month back. - On the watch, the tag button moved out of the middle of the screen it was covering, and the day chart is larger and less cramped. - French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese had lost their accents in over a hundred phrases, and one Spanish word was simply the wrong word. They are fixed, and French now addresses you the same way throughout. Requires iOS 26 and watchOS 26.

The Apple Watch app is rebuilt, and your friends now show up the moment you open the app. The watch used to bury the things you actually check: tonight's sleep answer was five swipes down, and the skin you chose only turned up on the last page. It is now five focused pages, your own gauge first, with tags and skins moved to buttons and a background that shifts with your energy zone. - Two new watch complications: what tonight's sleep buys you, and a tag you can log straight from the Smart Stack. There is a Control Center button for it too. - Ask Siri on your wrist for your energy, or to log a tag for the day. - The Home Screen widget now speaks your language - it had been showing English in the nine other languages. You can also choose what it shows: your energy, tonight's sleep, or morning readiness. There is a new Control Center tile as well. - Friends appear instantly instead of after a refresh, Accept answers the moment you tap it, and connections that used to get stuck now repair themselves. - A friend request reaches you as a notification now, rather than only when you open the app. - The day chart reads properly: hour labels on the hour, smoother scrubbing, and a gentle tick as your finger passes a workout or the night. - New on the chart: a faint band showing the middle half of your own recent days, so you can see whether today is normal for you. It appears once you have a week of history. - History gained a month at a glance - one tile per day, colored by how you started it, so a rough stretch is obvious without scrolling. - Open the app for the first time with nothing recorded yet and it now says so plainly, instead of showing a number that is not a measurement. - VoiceOver reads the day chart, the ledger and the sleep stages. Text scaling and contrast are fixed across all eight skins. Requires iOS 26 and watchOS 26.

Rhythm: your own body clock, now in Trends Vigor draws a personal 24-hour clock from your own history instead of an average. It marks when you habitually fall asleep and wake, your deepest sleep hour, your lowest sleeping heart rate, and the hour your body is most switched on. Estimated windows for melatonin onset, your core temperature minimum and the afternoon dip appear as dashed arcs, clearly labeled as estimates. Tap any marker to see what it means. The dial is a picture of your rhythm rather than markers on an empty ring: a heat ring built from your own quiet heart rate, a night wedge from sleep onset to wake, sun and moon markers, your recent workouts as dots at the hour you trained, and a hand that ticks with the current time and takes the color of your energy right now. Chronotype and regularity Two new cards put numbers on how you are wired: your sleep midpoint with an early, intermediate or late framing, your weekday and weekend midpoints and the social jetlag between them, and how much your bedtime and wake time vary from night to night. Both stay hidden until you have at least five recorded nights rather than guessing from too little. Daylight Vigor now reads your daily daylight minutes from Health and compares your brighter days against the next morning's starting energy. The card appears only once your own data supports the comparison. Long-range trends History gains a scrubbable chart of your 7-day average morning start once you have 60 days behind you, backed by an archive that keeps up to two years. Cycle context If you record menstrual flow in Health, the wrist temperature and heart rate variability tiles can now note when a shift is more likely to be your cycle than strain. It stays on your device, changes no scores, and is annotation only. Data coverage A new screen in Settings shows, for every health stream, the earliest reading Vigor can see and how many of the last 90 days carried data. "Why does my score look odd" is now something you can answer yourself. Circle Adding a friend works again. Requests that were sent but nevennections that stalled now complete, and the screen no longerspends its time on invitations that expired long ago. You can also finally put the keyboard away after typing a join code. Also in this release: a more rigorous fit behind the daily rhythm curve, chronotype and long-term statistics added to the data export, and a faster refresh when you reopen the app after a gap.

Solving bugs introduced at the previous update

Your data - History loads faster and no longer forgets days. - New in Settings: "Re-read Apple Health data" rebuilds your history straight from Health if anything ever looks wrong. - More accurate mornings: a nap no longer distorts the next morning's start, and nights recorded by both your watch and another source are now read correctly. Charts - The end-of-day forecast is now truly interactive: drag across it to read the projected level hour by hour, clearly marked as projected. - Full-screen charts rotate and close correctly, even when opened on top of another screen. Polish - Completed translations in all 10 languages, improved VoiceOver labels, and correct decimal separators everywhere. - Widgets and watch complications stay accurate through the day, the morning briefing arrives at the right time, and Reduce Motion is now respected on every skin.

This update fixes the problems some of you hit with friend sharing and with history after updating. Sharing with a friend (Circle): - Invitations now appear reliably. If requests were stuck invisible on your phone, they will surface on their own after this update - no reinstall needed. - Accepting an invitation now works, shows its progress, and tells you if it could not go through instead of doing nothing. - Refusing an invitation no longer blocks that person forever. They can simply ask again. - A new Connection details panel at the bottom of the Circle tab shows exactly what is happening if a connection does not go through. Your history: - Editing a day tag (alcohol, caffeine, illness, travel) no longer makes the History chart lose days and recalculate everything. Only the days after the change are updated, and the chart keeps showing your data while it works. - Fixed the bug where updating the app could freeze empty days into your history even though the data was still in Apple Health. - New in Settings: "Re-read Apple Health data" rebuilds your entire history from Apple Health. If you lost days after a previous update, this brings them back. Your data in Apple Health itself is never touched.

The day chart now sits directly under your energy score, with the diary right beneath it, so the shape of your day and its causes are the first things you see. Tap any chart to open it full screen, and turn your phone sideways for a much wider view of the day or the night. New colour scale for every chart: warm at the top, cold at the bottom, and the same in every skin. A value now looks the same whichever theme you use. Every skin gained a readout under the diary: how fast your energy is moving right now, the range it has covered today, and the level you woke up at. The rest-of-day projection now runs to the end of your evening instead of stopping early, and you can drag along it to read any moment. Projected values are labelled so they are never mistaken for measurements. Histograms now fill the height of the chart, so a calm day shows its own rhythm instead of a flat strip along the bottom. You can now tag a past day. Alcohol, caffeine, illness and travel can be added after the fact, and Vigor recalculates that day and the ones after it. Apple Watch: the app now stays on screen when you lower your wrist, and mindful minutes are read on the watch as well as the phone, so both devices agree on your morning number.

Working on solving bug with circles

Solved a bug with Circles where the users could not connect and share

Circle is now one to one. Every friend is a separate, private connection. Your friends can no longer see each other, and nobody can see who else you are connected to. - Both people agree. Someone entering your code sends you a request you accept or decline. Nothing is shared in either direction until you accept. - Choose what each friend sees. Tap a friend to set it for that person alone - the trend arrow, your morning start, how much the night gave back, your average morning, your streak, or the shape of your day. Pause anyone without disconnecting. - Tap a friend for their detail screen, with the nudge history between you. - The nudge buttons now confirm when they land, and 100 avatars replace the old 24. New on the Today screen - What shaped today: the day's biggest recharge and biggest drain, with real times and a plain reason for each. - Rest of day: where your reserve is heading, and when - drawn on the curve, and honest when it cannot say. - How this morning was built: the full arithmetic behind your starting number. - The curve now carries a band showing how sure Vigor is, plus how much of your waking day was actually measured. - Your day rhythm: the calm heart rate your body actually rests at, hour by hour, and the rate below which you are recharging. - Export everything Vigor computed about you as CSV and JSON. Apple Watch - Right now is genuinely live - your heart rate updates while you look at it. - The complication ages honestly instead of showing an old number as current, and says when a night was not recorded. - A tag logged on your wrist now lands at the hour you logged it, and can no longer overwrite tags kept on your phone. - Always-on and privacy handling throughout. - The whole watch app is now translated into all ten languages. Fixes - Five health signals the model reads - respiratory rate, blood oxygen, overnight breathing disturbances, heart-rate recovery and mindful minutes - were never reaching it. They do now. - Past days in Trends show their date.

Solving some minor bugs and adapting the algorithms.

Sleep quality now drives your morning score. Vigor used to give you roughly the same overnight recharge whatever kind of night you had. It now follows your night minute by minute - deep sleep, REM, light sleep, time awake, and your heart rate while you sleep - so a restful night and a restless one no longer land in the same place. A calm night and a stressed night can now differ by more than two to one, which is what a night that actually felt different should look like. - Your night is now drawn like the rest of your day, with the heart-rate band running under the whole curve instead of stopping at bedtime. Time spent awake at night shows as a real dip. - Being awake in the night costs energy. Before, it counted for nothing. - A high heart rate while you sleep holds the recharge back, and Vigor will now tell you when that is what limited your night. - Daytime drain recalibrated: quiet days cost noticeably less, busy days are unchanged. Chronically short sleep no longer pins you at the bottom. - Deep sleep is now valued above light sleep, and light sleep above REM, which matches how the body's recovery signals actually behave overnight.

This update makes Vigor far more useful day to day. Circles - share with friends Invite a friend with a short join code, or a QR they scan, then see each other's energy at a glance and send a friendly nudge. Opt-in, over your own iCloud; only your name and score are shared, never your health data. A new Training tab - Training readiness each morning, blending your overnight recovery with your recent training load. - Fitness vs fatigue: your long-term load against your recent load, with a clear read on whether you are fresh, building, or overreaching, plus your VO2max trend. - Your five heart-rate zones and how your recent sessions split across them. A new Body view - Cardio fitness (VO2max) with your fitness age, rated against people of your age and sex, with an interactive trend. - Resting vitals - heart rate, HRV, breathing, blood oxygen, wrist temperature, walking and recovery heart rate - each tappable for a 30-day trend and a plain read on where it sits. More detail on every moment Tap any point on the day chart, or any row in the battery diary, to see its heart-rate zones or its sleep stages and cycles. Sharper and more accurate Heart-rate zone names and VO2max ratings now line up with standard references, so what Vigor shows agrees with what you see elsewhere. Plus many refinements to the charts and to all 10 languages. Everything still runs privately on your iPhone. No account, no subscription, no cloud.
