• Season stats! Sessions, tacks, waves, success rates — your season, properly broken down. The new stats view is finally here. • You can now rename spots. All past and future sessions at the same location will use the new name. • User video sharing was great for single moments like dock starts or waves. Now it handles full sessions too. Use Synced for real-time clips, or Range to squeeze a longer part of your session into your video. Thanks, @mattonfoil! • Trimming sessions can be a bit tricky. This version improves the user experience and fixes a few bugs related to the feature. • There’s now a setting for those convinced the wind arrow should point into the wind. This appears to split the world in two. Thanks, Anders! • Some data got mixed up when sharing a session. That should now be sorted. Thanks, Brendan, for catching it! • Some users were told they’d run out of free recordings, despite being subscribed. That should now be sorted. Thanks, Kris and Anders! • Also fixes a crash on the Apple Watch that could happen when debug logging was enabled. Thanks for helping out and being patient, Ben!

• Trim sessions. A new feature to rescue those recordings where you forgot to stop the session and drove all the way home. You can now also change the session type afterwards. Requested by a long list of users. Shoutout to Brendan, Daniel, Kevin, @mattonfoil, Nick, Peter and many more. • For the fellow developers out there: the app now runs on Swift 6.2. There may be a few bumps initially, but it should make the app more stable over time.

• Turn your sessions into shareable videos with animated data overlays. Speed, heart rate, track, distance and time synced directly onto your clips. • Less aggressive automatic water lock. It should no longer decide to lock itself at the precise moment you’re trying to stop recording. Thanks, Brendan and @grey.haired.ninja! • Finding that session from last month just got easier. Search by date with "date: may 15", "date: 2025-06-01", or even ranges like "date: dec 10 to dec 20". Your recent searches are remembered for quick repeat access. • Voice callouts now return your music after speaking instead of leaving you in silence. Thanks, @grey.haired.ninja! • More robust parsing of GPX dates from Strava exports. Thanks, Stuart! • Fixed a compatibility issue affecting some iOS 18 versions. Thanks, Jurij!

• Strava support is finally here. A long-requested feature, now ready to roll. Your sessions can head straight to Strava without any extra fuss. This one’s for you, Ben. • Export transparent overlays to add your track on top of your own photos or videos. Great for reels, stories, and a bit of visual storytelling. • Fewer accidental pauses. Some under-the-hood improvements make it much harder to pause a session mid-ride by mistake. Less frustration, more foiling. Thanks, Oleg!

Tack angle analysis is brand new in this release, and session sharing just got a major upgrade with video support. • The map now shows your tack angles, making it easy to compare setups when testing different foils or wings. Toggle it on from the session details menu. • Session sharing got a major upgrade. You can now share **animated sessions**, not just static images. Title and stats can be hidden, margins can be adjusted for Instagram Reels, and tack angles are fully supported in shared sessions. If you share an epic run, I’d love to see it! • Adaptive timeline scaling for prone and dock start sessions. Non-foiling sections are sped up while time on foil is slowed down, resulting in smoother, more detailed session playback. • Fixed a rare session-saving issue with invaluable help from Ben. Thanks to everyone for the patience while this one was tracked down. • Added an Apple Watch widget so you can launch the app without playing “where did it go?” on the Home Screen. • Lastly, the set destination view got some usability improvements thanks to @mattonfoil.

• Fixed an issue where GPX export would fail for some users due to certain date and time formats. Thanks @grey.haired.ninja for helping hunt this one down! • Shared sessions now support speed- and heart-rate-colored tracks, as well as custom solid colors. Aspect ratio options have been added for Instagram stories and reels, and weather is now included in shared images. Thanks to @surfskolan for showing me just how bad the color I chose in the previous version looked at his home spot :-)

• Session sharing is here. Share full sessions or individual downwind runs, waves, or dock starts using the standard iOS share sheet — Messages, Mail, Instagram, Facebook, and more. You can move, resize, and even rotate the track. If you don’t like the default title, you can edit that too. Thanks to Zack for the inspiration! • Freefoil session type added. Thanks Todd from BetaFoil! • New start picker controls. Hide session types you don’t use to keep the start picker from getting ridiculously long. • Sessions are now saved automatically when the watch battery runs low — a literal session-saver in cold weather. Thanks Laurence! • Calories now sync properly to Health. Thanks Johnny! • iPhone recording, polished. Recording on iPhone now looks properly good in Liquid Glass. • Improved first-time experience. Same necessary hoops, just nicer to jump through.

• This one's for the data nerds and Garmin refugees: GPX export and import is finally here. You can now export your sessions to share to online leaderboards or import tracks from other apps and devices. Thanks @mattonfoil for finally pushing me to implement this! • Customize what stats you see when scrolling through your session on the map. Speed, heart rate, session time, run distance, etc. Pick what matters to you and ditch the rest (thanks Glen & Joakim). • Prone surfers, this one's for you: individual waves now show up on the map instead of in sets. Thanks Hugh! • If destination callouts aren't your thing, you can now disable them in settings (thanks Johnny). • Larger tap targets around the timeline stepper buttons, because fat-fingering back to overview when you're trying to step through your session is the worst. • And finally, some under-the-hood stuff: better memory handling for those epic multi-hour sessions and decreased memory footprint on iOS when browsing sessions. Plus, the What's New button is back from the dead.

• This release is another big one — but this time, it’s the screen that’s bigger. Full iPad support is here in all its glory (thanks, Glen!). • You’ll now get destination voice-callouts on both iPhone and Apple Watch: distance to go, cross-track error and heading. Perfect for downwinders with waterproof headphones. Thanks @dmitryevseev! • Heart rate zone voice-callouts on Apple Watch. Great for keeping the pace without staring at the screen. Thanks @mattonfoil! • Changing wind direction now triggers a recalculation of wave and swell stats. • Timestamp added to each wave/start/ride when in scroll mode (thanks Peer!). • Replay speed has been dialed back a bit. Shoutout to Kevin and Glen for the feedback! • The close button in Notes and Weather now changes icon and color to show that something has been updated (thanks @mattonfoil!). • And finally, the whole app has had a light refresh with iOS 26-style corners plus an upgraded speed and heart-rate graph.

For users with 100+ sessions like me, this release is a big one. You can now search your sessions using phrases like “wingfoil torö”, “parawing code 970r”, or “gong sirus xxl”. The search currently covers session type, location name, and notes. Huge thanks to @mattonfoil for helping suss this one out! The session list view also got an overhaul to make room for the new search field. Most of the options that used to sit at the bottom (settings, destination, subscription, tutorial, etc.) have now moved to a menu button in the upper-right corner. The destination view used by many downwinders now includes X-track error, giving you more precise guidance toward that hazy horizon (thanks Matt at @dwfoil_com). “Old guys rule” got some love and should now behave better on smaller Apple Watches (thanks again Matt at @dwfoil_com!). It’s also been renamed to the slightly more obvious “Large Text”.

This release helps you find your way when the horizon turns into one big grey blur. - Your Apple Watch now displays the heading and distance to your destination. Choose the destination in the iPhone app’s settings. Always use it together with other navigation tools, and bring a PLB if you’re heading far offshore. Thanks, Szabi! - The FAFO-meter now also shows an arrow pointing back to your starting point. - Speed, distance, and heart rate have moved to a pop-up next to your position marker, freeing up space for pace, average heart rate, and max speed in the stats box. Thanks, Glen & Joakim! - Timeline resolution got a boost. You’ll notice it most when scrolling through dock-start sessions. - Fixed the bug where max speed could appear slower than the run’s average speed. Thanks, Markus! - Brendan spotted a bug where “Distance on Foil” in prone sessions was showing the total distance travelled including swimming and walking. That’s now fixed. Thanks for the catch!

Full support for iOS 26 and Liquid Glass, plus a refreshed icon. I know it might not be everyone’s cup of tea (you can tone it down in settings), but I think the app looks amazing with it. :-) - The last swell ride now stays on your watch until you start a new one. - An option to force dark mode, now there is. If prefer the dark side you do. - Dock start algorithm now a bit more forgiving. Thanks Michael! - Added *Wing Up/Downwind* session type for those of us (myself included) who aren’t quite at the full parawing downwinder stage yet. - You can now hide the photo stack in session details. Foil Sessions never sends your photos anywhere, but if you’d rather not grant full photo library access, this hides the "Your Photos Here" placeholder. - Swapped time pumping for max speed in the prone session overview. Thanks Joao! - Photo stack got some visual polish with improved handling of long location names, plus a new placeholder if you haven’t granted photo access. - Less interesting parts of a track now shown as semi-transparent. Thanks Michael! - Squashed the bug that sometimes left gaps in tracks. Thanks again, Michael!

Shiny on the outside, smoother on the inside—this version tidies up a lot of details and finally sends a long-standing bug to an early grave. Enjoy and let me know if you run into any issues! - Fresh look for prone, swell and dock start details! Max speed per run is now shown, and you can filter out the dull bits — upwind runs or those less-than-glorious dock starts. Thanks, Steve & Crew! - Fixes an issue where the play button on Apple Watch could sometimes remain disabled. - Duration is now displayed consistently across all foil detail views. Thanks again, Steve! - Tow Boogie sessions now count waves just like prone and assisted surf sessions. Thanks, Glen! - Swell analysis has been tweaked for slightly better accuracy. - Finally squashed the elusive track section overlap bug. Odds are you never saw it, but it kept making life miserable for me trying to tune the algorithms.

Replay mode added to session details. Watch your full session with swim sections fast-forwarded. Perfect for that Instagram post. :-) *Assisted Surf* mode added for those Foil Drive surf sessions we all love. The Prone Surf algorithm wasn’t great, but with some help from Steve, it’s now much better. I’m still looking for more data to keep improving it—so if you have a session that doesn’t make sense, please send me the debug track. Downwind/Upwind view added to the watch app, showing duration, distance, and average speed for the last run. Average speed for the last dock start is now shown on the watch. Max speed filtering got an upgrade — no more random 150 km/h spikes.

Big changes in this version: • New *Towed Jet Ski* and *Parawing Up/Downwind* session types have been added. These sessions count upwind and downwind runs and display stats for each. Thanks to Grayham for the help! • Scrolling should be much smoother now. Tap the chart and swipe to try it out! • In scroll mode, the full track is grayed out while only the current run is shown in color, making it much easier to review your tracks. • Fixes an issue that caused the position marker to appear warped.

In this version: • Your heart rate now appears alongside your speed in the timeline (thanks, Szabi and others!). • The old crosshair for timeline scrubbing has been replaced with a blue dot and arrow showing your heading. • The total count in the Tacks & Jibes summary is now in a slightly larger font than the port and starboard splits — making things just a tad less confusing.

Wake Thief discipline added. Apple Watch buttons are now easier to press with wet fingers. Also improved: location filtering. Big thanks to Jurij, Steve, and Fletcher!

The map should no longer think you’ve been foiling in the middle of the Atlantic. Fix courtesy of Jeff — nice catch!

This update brings a few minor tweaks to dock starts. Duration is now displayed in minutes and seconds (MM:SS) instead of just seconds in the dock start details view. Erroneous starts are now filtered more effectively, and the start recording logic has been slightly reworked for all session types.

This version brings more improvements to the dock start view on Apple Watch: - Haptic and vocal feedback (unless your speaker is full of seawater—then it’s just haptic). - The view now shows your current start in real time, so you can see how long you’ve been pumping while you’re still pumping—no need to wait for a successful start anymore. - Time is now displayed in MM:SS format instead of just seconds—a welcome change for anyone pumping beyond the Wake Thief challenge. - A bug in the subscription logic has been fixed (thanks, Tim!).

Tacks and jibes where you exit at a slightly lower speed are now correctly identified and counted (thanks, Steve!) The water lock button is back in action (cheers, Oleg!). The dock start row now only sums the distance while pumping, ignoring any movement around on the dock. Session duration has also been replaced with average start duration — way more interesting when dock starting! If the watch failed to fetch the weather at the end of a session, the Tacks & Jibes detail view would also fail. This is now fixed for future sessions. If it’s affecting a past session, you’ll need to set the weather manually (once again, thanks Oleg!). Finally, I've been learning to dock start, and this release improves the algorithm — making it slightly less likely to count failed starts as proper ones. (I've had a lot of failed starts...)

Some users reported issues when starting a new session on Apple Watch. This release includes additional safeguards to help prevent potential problems when beginning a new recording.

This version adds a second screen on the Apple Watch for prone surf sessions (thanks, Jeff!). Similar to the dock and beach start modes, it shows the latest set of waves along with stats like the longest wave in the set, total time and distance on foil, and the number of linked waves. Paddle-up sessions get a similar upgrade (cheers, Graham!). You’ll now see the number of successful paddle-ups both on the watch while recording and in the session history on your iPhone. On the Apple Watch, you’ll also get detailed stats for the latest paddle-up—including duration, distance, and your average and max heart rate. The gray non-foiling track is now rendered separately beneath the colored tracks that show when you’re up on foil. This should especially improve the experience for dock starts and prone foiling, where you often spend a lot of time in the same spot. Lastly, this version addresses an issue where the Apple Watch app occasionally failed to start a new session.
