Version 5.5.1

Oh, happy day! We’re pleased to introduce two long-awaited community-driven features: non-recorded daily steps and RPE from Apple Workouts now count toward your Activity Path efforts.

NEW HEALTH METRIC: STEPS
Yes, the long-requested, non-recorded daily steps can now be part of your Activity Path efforts!
We know step counts can easily turn into just another goal to chase — and that’s exactly what we’re working to move away from. To do it well, we had to figure out how to fit this health metric into our algorithm so your guidance stays accurate — and how to represent it visually. A ring might’ve been the obvious choice, but rings tend to create subconscious pressure to close them, which goes against our core premise: adapting guidance to your current needs and capacities. We hope this approach does it justice and lands the way we intended: it’s not about hitting arbitrary numbers; it’s about offering a more wholesome view of your daily movement. Instead of pushing for more, it’s meant to reflect what is.

From this update, you can check your:
• Current daily step count, including total distance, duration, flights climbed, and walking heart rate, plus a progress chart compared to the typical day or your daily average (a Gentler speciality)
• 14-day overview of steps, distance, and flights climbed

Steps feature is designed with two specific groups in mind:
1. People navigating chronic conditions, where pacing and energy management can play an essential role in the day, and
2. Active walkers who walk a lot as a part of their job or lifestyle can now better understand their daily movement and its impact on their fitness.

RPE SYNC WITH HEALTH
Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) entries from Apple’s Workouts app can now be synced with Gentler Streak. Previously, only RPE logged within our app influenced your Activity Path.

If you regularly use RPE with Apple Workouts, you might notice changes in your Activity Path and the guidance provided by Gentler Streak. If the guidance feels off, we recommend dialing back the RPE adjustments and following the Apple Watch’s recommendations, especially for aerobic workouts.

In the past, there were many times when people were not familiar with RPE and were using it in a way that was skewing their guidance. To avoid that, we encourage you to learn more about this feature and how (not) to use it. Open the app, go to the Insights tab> Gentler Streak 101 > What is RPE, How to Use RPE, and Assess Your Efforts With RPE.

TECHNICALITIES
• To include RPE changes in your Activity Path, and to exclude steps from your Activity Path, open Gentler Streak > Profile > Settings > Activity Path Calculation > Sync RPE with Health > and set each toggle to a preferred setting.
• Changing the RPE in Gentler Streak will override the one written in Health.
• Both features available to all users, both premium and free.

Activating both features requires access to your Health data, which you’ll be prompted to confirm. Note that all your health data stays on your device always. This access simply lets us read and write data to the Health app to provide better guidance.

If you find the app helpful, leaving a review on the App Store is one of the best ways to support us. It not only gives us a boost (seriously, it makes our day), but also helps others find Gentler Streak more easily.

Editors’ Notes

A more balanced approach to fitness, that rewards little bits of exercise instead of pushing you to your limits. Delightfully designed graphics and rest-day suggestions showcase the kindly encouraging level of care.

Disappointing Fitness App

I purchased the premium version of this app, but I'm thoroughly disappointed. It offers nothing new that Apple Fitness doesn't already have. The workout intensity calculations are unclear, leading to inaccurate streaks. I also didn't appreciate that heart rate zones are optional and can be adjusted by the user. Overall, not worth the premium price, and I'll be uninstalling it immediately.

Hi! Thank you for taking the time to write this review. I’m sorry that Gentler Streak didn’t meet your expectations. You are correct; most of this data can be obtained from the Health app. However, to understand the raw numbers and know how to interpret them, you usually need some fitness knowledge. Our main target audience is those who don’t consider themselves fitness-savvy. Gentler Streak takes these raw numbers, processes them, and presents them in an easy-to-understand manner so that anyone can grasp their current activity and well-being state.
The workout calculations are based on an industry-standard formula called the TRIMP formula. It takes into account your age, gender, resting HR, HR during activity, and VO2max when available to provide the most accurate results. This calculation is further supported by health metrics on the Wellbeing tab. Here, you can see your SHR/RHR, sleep duration, wrist temperature, HRV, oxygen levels, and respiratory rate. This additional information provides another layer of insight, enabling you to make informed decisions about your daily actions.
Regarding your comment about heart rate zones being optional, I’d like to clarify that everything in the app revolves around your heart rate, and heart rate zones are fundamental to it. If you meant something specific by “optional,” we would appreciate more details. If you believe you’ve encountered a bug, please let us know at support@gentlerstories.com. Heart rate zones are automatically calculated by the app, or you can manually adjust them if you have data from metabolic tests or any other method. They are always a part of the app.
Thank you, and all the best,
Vid
