NEW IN 3.12
- Complications on your watch face. Gym Log+ can sit on the face you look at most, in all four accessory shapes — corner, circular, rectangular and inline — and in the Smart Stack. While a rest timer runs it counts down right there on the face, so you can see the rest without raising the app. The rest of the time it shows today's program day ("Push Day · Day 2 of 3"), or your last workout and this week's count when no program is running. Tap it to open the watch app — mid-workout, straight into logging — and it refreshes on its own, so a change made on your iPhone reaches your wrist without opening the watch app first
- Pause a workout. Pause and Resume now sit in the workout menu next to Finish. The clock freezes, paused time never counts toward the workout's duration, a running rest timer stops, and logging a set picks the workout right back up. In History, the Session Timeline shades the paused stretches so a pause doesn't read as one very long rest
- Every set type straight from the LOG button. Warm-up, drop, rest-pause and the to-failure flag are now actions on the button itself, not only behind a long press
- Find an exercise or a routine from anywhere. Both turn up in iPhone search — pull down from the Home Screen, type "Bench Press", tap the result and land on that exercise's progress page. Your own custom exercises and alternate names are searchable too; your sets, weights and dates stay out of the system index. Siri and Shortcuts also recognise more of the phrases people actually use for starting a workout
- Routine Stats grew up: a 1M/3M/1Y/All range picker, a Volume or Reps choice, and a Plot by Date or Session number toggle — the session axis spaces every session evenly, so "am I beating last time?" reads at a glance even on an irregular schedule
- Move exercises without dragging — long-press one in the routine editor for Move Up, Move Down, Move to Top or Move to Bottom. And "My Exercises Only" in the Sort & Filter menu finds your own entries among the 441 built-ins
ACCESSIBILITY
- A thorough VoiceOver pass, most of it on screens that were close to unusable. A workout in your history arrived as eight separate items of bare numbers; it is now one item that reads its own summary. Your records came three items at a time; each is now one that names itself. The comparison table's numbers had nothing saying which workout or which measure they belonged to, your watch's finish summary read every line twice, and heart rate arrived as a bare "142". Five icon-only buttons had no name, and seven rows responded to taps on only part of what you could see — the History calendar most of all, where you had to hit the date's digits
- Hear your progress charts. Every trend chart — an exercise's progress, a routine's stats, your body weight and measurements — can be played as sound with VoiceOver's Audio Graph, so a rising estimated 1RM is something you can hear. Focus one and VoiceOver reads what it holds: how many sessions, what they span, the low and high, and how far it moved
FIXED
- Active Energy shows up when the workout does. After a workout your watch measured, the calorie figure could take up to half an hour to reach your history even though Health and your rings had it straight away. It is there when you go to look at what you just did
- Finish a workout on your iPhone with the watch app open and your wrist now lands on the same finish summary it shows when you finish from the watch, instead of dropping back to the start screen
