  • Although this software is believed to be reliable, it has not yet been released for production and should be used at your own risk.

Changes made from version 9.00 to 9.56:

  • Added enhanced strength functionality, which includes an improved workout preview with a map of muscles that will be used, improved UI in free mode and workouts, and improvements to the rep and weight editing experience.
  • Improvements made to on-device sleep detection and sleep staging.
  • Improvements made to Run/Idle detection algorithm, particularly when detecting when the user has stopped.
  • Added the Resting Heartrate True-Up feature. RHR data now gets trued-up so that all devices tied to the same account will have the same RHR value.
  • Added new alert to display after this SW update to inform user that wifi networks configured to WEP security are no longer supported.
  • Updates for Shimano Di2 support
  • Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
