As we scaled up over the years, certain things started to slow down. A few weeks ago, we made some major structural changes to how data is stored and cleaned up all the parts that were going slowly.
Now that Gyroscope requires a membership and data isn’t synced or stored otherwise, we’ve been able to ensure all our resources are going towards the people who are paying for the app. In many cases this has resulted in making requests 10x-100x faster than they used to be.
You should notice that some pages that may have taken a while to load previously are now pretty much instant!
This applies especially to your reports feed and the daily reports. Navigating across different days should be nearly instant and make it a lot more fun to open your history and navigate through the app.
Note that a membership is required at all times now to store your data. Inactive accounts will be automatically removed after 60 days.
All the different trackers and analytics you get are now listed on the site, so you can review everything you have access to and get inspiration for how to use
Browse the new homepage and all the different trackers and case studies. We will also be publishing more guides and tutorials soon, including more of the science, coaching and advanced devices we are using in X.
iOS14 broke a lot of things, including how resting heart rate is calculated from the Apple Watch. The new values use daytime data and can end up being higher by 10 or even 20 points than earlier resting heart rate.
This will of course mess with your trends, sleep score and health score, since normally such a jump in resting heart rate is a bad sign.
We’ve added some fixes for this, calculating RHR from our own raw data now.
To use this, simply open your daily report for the day and a new resting heart rate will be calculated and saved if needed. Afterwards, your sleep score for that day should be accurate.
A simple way to do this is to check your daily report each day when you wake up, which is an important habit anyways. You can also easily flip back through your older history through the arrows at the top of the report as well as the Time Machine.
