Suggestion for Goals Widget
Former Member
Hello - on the Goals widget within the new modern dashboard, can you please add an indicator which shows expected performance against a goal? This will allow users to see how far ahead, or behind, the goal they are. At the moment one can see what percent of the goal is complete, and how much below/above goal you are, but where the user 'should' be within that goal is not shown. This was functionality which existed with the previous 'non-modern' homepage. Thanks for your consideration. (And BTW - I really love the new site.)
I have the same request, it is hugely motivational to know whether you're on target to meet your goal, or are lagging behind. Please would you give it the same 'today' marker as the classic view.
The goal widget on the main page does need the "today" indicator, but that is not enough. It should also show how far behind or ahead you are. The calendar page shows your active goals on the left side. These have a "today" indicator. You can click on these and get more details. Unfortunately the details do not give you the complete story without using a calculator. For instance I have a yearly riding goal of 4500 miles. I am currently at 2702 miles which is 60% of my goal. The detail screen also tells me I am 236 days into the year. A quick calculation tells me that the year is 65% done. The screen does not tell me this, there is only a grey band in the progress bar to indicate I am behind. A second calculation tells me that I should have completed 2909.6 miles. Which means I am 207 miles behind. I would like to see all of these numbers in the goal widgets. For running I would imagine that 1/10th of a mile would be necessary.
