A few weeks ago, Gentler Streak added non-conventional exercises to the Apple Watch app. It also brought back widget support for iPhone users.
Gentler Streak is an Apple Watch workout app that wants to bring compassion to your fitness goals. It was first highlighted by Apple in February during the American Heart Month and 9to5Mac has been covering its updates ever since.
Last time, the app added 12 non-conventional workouts that are not available within the stock Workout app, such as dog walking, shoveling, and mountain biking. With these, Gentler Streak features more than 100 trackable exercises.
Now, the app wants to fill the heart rate blanks your Apple Watch may have when you are working out. This is how Gentler Streak describes this feature :
Sometimes, your smartwatch won’t measure your heart rate during exercise, and/or your activity tracking data doesn’t transfer to Apple Health. This can affect the Activity Path’s accuracy. We now have a way to efficiently find the HR missing from all the data. It may cause a slight change in your Activity Path.
Gentler Streak has two widgets available for the iPhone app. It displays your body’s current fitness level on the home screen. The Daily Condition indicator comes in the form of a small and medium-size widget.
Version 2.2. 1 of Gentler Streak is already available on the App Store here. The app is free to download but requires a subscription to take full advantage of it. Premium costs $6. 99 per month or $19. 99 for a full year.
