New in PulseZones 3.0: • Zone 2 Pulse: your Apple Watch gives a gentle double tap every 3 seconds while you're in Zone 2, so you can feel it without looking. Light, Strong or Off. • Two recovery readings after every Watch workout: Cooldown HRR (from your heart rate when you end) and Peak HRR (from your highest heart rate). • New workouts: Functional Strength Training and Walk/Run Intervals. • Cleaner distance workouts: big, easy-to-read miles above your heart rate. Laps are gone. • Choose your watch-face complication colors: all five zone colors, or Zone 2 Focus with Zone 2 in blue. • Spanish now comes in two versions: Español (Latinoamérica) and Español (España). • Many reliability fixes across iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac and Apple TV.

• End a workout from your iPhone and it ends on your Apple Watch too, even when the Watch app is in the background. • Apple Watch: two small buttons under the ring show your laps and this week's zone time, then return to the ring after 5 seconds. The Digital Crown no longer flips screens by accident mid-workout. • Chest straps: if your Watch isn't reading heart rate, PulseZones uses the chest strap connected to your iPhone. It also finds more straps, including ones that don't announce themselves as heart rate monitors. • Live workouts stay in sync with your iPhone more reliably, even with another app open. • The live screen now fills with your current zone's color on iPhone, Apple Watch and Apple TV. Below Zone 1 it stays black. • Better battery life: the zone ring no longer redraws in the background.

• A new Totals tab shows weekly zone minutes, including current workout progress and minutes beyond your goals. • More reliable totals across pauses, week changes and saved-workout synchronization. • Eligible workout details show Apple Health VO₂ max readings with clear attribution. • Apple Watch GPS loop-lap tracking, with quick access to weekly progress and lap counts using the Digital Crown. • A cleaner large Watch complication with bars only, more room for the graph and 20% thinner bars. Spoken zone labels remain available. • Weekly goal settings keep Zones 1–5 in order.

• More reliable purchase restoration with clearer status and retry messages. • Set your weekly Zone 2 goal for free, with clearer explanations of full training plans in Pro. • A simpler Pro upgrade screen with relevant benefits, clearer annual billing and trial information, and improved price-loading recovery. • Clearer upgrade messages and improved text layout.

PulseZones now runs on every screen you train with: • iPhone Duo: a new two-pane layout on the inner display. Your week sits beside your zone bars, and the live ring sits beside your zone breakdown. Fold it and everything fits the cover display. • Apple Watch: your workouts now reach the big screen too. Start on your wrist as usual. • New Apple TV app: this week's zone goals on your TV, free. Link it by pointing your iPhone camera at the code on screen. With PulseZones Pro, your live heart rate ring, timers and zone breakdown appear on the TV while you train. • Private by design: your iPhone talks straight to your Apple TV over your home Wi-Fi. Nothing is uploaded.

A new live workout ring, on your wrist and your phone. • One ring, five zones: the live ring now shows all five heart-rate zones as sections around one dial, with Z1–Z5 markers at each boundary. Your position on the ring is your heart rate. • Bigger, clearer Watch display: larger ring, larger zone labels and a bolder time-in-zone readout. • Faster response: the ring and heart-rate number settle on each new reading in about a second. • Recovery on your iPhone: the 2-minute recovery countdown and your recovery result now show on the Live tab too. • Redesigned Live tab: larger ring, an End button in the ring tile, and a bigger, easier-to-read zone breakdown that fills the screen. • Also: more responsive heart-rate updates on Apple Watch, better Always On behavior, your iPhone stays awake during a workout, and weekly progress that gives every zone with a goal an equal share.

Big update — every workout now tells the whole story: • Workouts now keeps your last 2 months. Search by type, note or date and filter by zone. Your weekly goal still starts fresh every week. • Redeem PulseZones Pro offer codes right in Settings. • Heart rate graph: see exactly when and where your heart rate changed, colored by zone. Drag to scrub, switch between time and distance, and tap a zone to highlight every stretch you spent in it. • Heart rate recovery: your Apple Watch measures how fast your heart rate drops in the 2 minutes after a workout, with a trend over time. • Splits: pace and heart rate for every mile or kilometer. • Share any workout as an image. • A much smoother live zone ring on Apple Watch that deepens from light to dark as your heart rate climbs. • Distance and pace for walks, runs, hikes, rides and open-water swims — live on your Watch, in the Live Activity and complication. Choose miles or kilometers in Settings. • Resting and max heart rate from 3 months of Apple Health data, a new Zone 0 for warm-up time, and a choice of app language. PulseZones Pro adds a route map colored by zone, compare with a past workout, aerobic decoupling and guided workout scores.

Guided zone workouts, Siri and the Action button, and a Live Activity on your Lock Screen. • Guided zone workouts (Pro): Zone 2 Steady, VO2 Max 4×4, Threshold Tempo, and Recovery. Your Apple Watch taps your wrist at each segment and nudges you back when you drift out of zone. • Start any workout with Siri, Shortcuts, or the Action button on Apple Watch Ultra. • Live Activity: see your zone, bpm, and time in zone on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. • New Start Workout button on the Home screen. • Share your week as an image. • Now in Spanish, German, and French. • If PulseZone closes during a workout recorded on your iPhone, it picks the workout back up. • Better VoiceOver and Reduce Motion support on iPhone and Apple Watch. • Bug fixes and a smaller download.

Also in this update: • The Apple Watch app now supports watchOS 10 and later, so it works on many more watches • Workouts keep running reliably in the background on Apple Watch when you lower your wrist
