What's new in each Your Trainer release. Most-recent first. Updates roll out from Play Store in stages; if a new version isn't on your device yet it's likely a day or two away.

v2.1.0 — intervals.icu, Strava routes, seven-zone heart rate, live route map, fairer free tier

Feature release. The headlines: the intervals.icu integration arrives — connect an account to browse and ride planned workouts and the personal library, publish or schedule sessions back to the calendar, and upload completed rides as FIT. Route mode gains a live map view alongside the terrain graph, with a sat-nav-style follow view, and reaches phones for the first time. An online library of 300+ structured workouts can be browsed and installed inline on the workout-selection screen. Strava routes and starred segments now download and ride directly. The heart-rate system moves to a seven-zone LTHR scheme aligned with intervals.icu. And the free tier becomes more generous — unlimited bundled workouts, no monthly ERG cap, and free workout favourites; the visual workout editor and external integrations stay Pro.

What's new

• intervals.icu integration. One-tap browser sign-in connects an intervals.icu account. The workout-selection screen gains a Today's plan section and a Coming up next-7-days section for planned workouts, plus inline access to the personal library. Riding a planned workout sends a completed FIT back to the calendar. The kebab menu on intervals.icu rows surfaces Plan and Send as the top actions. LTHR derives from intervals.icu when connected. Built by a small team led by David Tinker. See workouts.html → intervals.icu for the full coverage.
• Live route map and view modes. Route mode now has a top-down map view of the route alongside the terrain graph. Four rider-selectable layouts: terrain with a map inset, map with a terrain inset, terrain-only, map-only. The inset is movable, resizable, and swaps with a tap on the main view. A sat-nav-style follow view rotates the map to the rider's heading, with cyclist-paced zoom and road-model rendering. Available on phones as well as tablets. See routes-guide.html → Route map and view modes.
• Online library of 300+ workouts. Browse and install individual workouts from the online library, inline on the workout-selection screen — no separate download or import step. 280 Power and 34 HR-Zone workouts at release, each in 9 languages, with more added in waves. See workouts.html.
• Strava routes and starred segments. Existing Strava OAuth scope now includes route + starred-segment download. Strava routes appear in the workout-selection Route tab tinted Strava-orange; starred segments synthesise as rideable courses from the segment's elevation stream. The existing Strava ride upload continues to work alongside. See routes-guide.html → Strava routes.
• Seven-zone LTHR heart-rate system. Heart-rate zones realigned to a seven-zone, LTHR-anchored scheme that matches intervals.icu. Zones Z1–Z5 remain drivable by structured workouts; Z6 and Z7 surface in analytics and free-ride observation. Time-in-zone history recomputed under the new boundaries. See training-zones.html.
• Fairer free tier. Unlimited bundled workouts on FREE; the previous three-ERG-sessions-per-month cap is gone; workout favourites work for everyone. The visual workout editor and the external integrations (intervals.icu, Strava) stay Pro. See the landing page for the FREE/PRO breakdown.
• AI Workout Builder and AI Coach gain reliability. The AI Workout Builder now emits a workout intent and the cycling MCP authors a valid .ytw deterministically — fewer malformed outputs. The AI Coach grounds answers in training-load data. Under-the-hood; no UI changes. See ai-skills.html.

What's fixed

• Coaching cues at offsetSec: 0 now fire immediately at the start of an interval, rather than skipping the first observable tick.
• Workout-list cache invalidation — online-sourced lists (intervals.icu library, planned events, online pack manifest, Strava routes and segments) survive bottom-nav navigation; no more silent re-fetch on every return.
• LTHR re-derives reliably when Max HR changes — the per-keystroke save race that masked stale values is closed.
• Round-trip of coaching cues through the intervals.icu DSL — cues survive YT → intervals.icu → YT cycles. Default cue duration extended so bundled cues stay readable.
• Equipment Hub state transitions and label terminology aligned across the app — "connect" is the verb everywhere; the Hub's connect-states read consistently.

Known issues shipping with

• The internal _attribution field is not persisted in saved AI-generated .ytw files (provenance signal only, not rider-visible). Targeted v2.1.1.
• A handful of low-severity items (.ytwpack import feedback edges, per-rider collapse state, online-list refresh polish) ship unfixed and are scheduled for v2.1.1.

v2.0.2 — Equipment Hub redesign, sharper micro-intervals, richer AI Coach

Polish patch on top of the v2.0 line. The 2.0.1–2.0.4 patches between the initial release and the public announcement also rolled up many small fixes (phone-width layout, micro-interval visibility, HR-zone cockpit polish).

What's new

• Equipment Hub redesigned — each device slot has a ⋮ menu for Forget / Change device, the connect terminology is consistent across the app, and HRM scans only show heart-rate monitors (trainer scans only show trainers).
• Sharper micro-interval workouts — the pre-ride terrain now labels every watt level and joins matching peaks with a dashed line, so complex sessions read at a glance.
• HR-Zone workouts get the timeline ruler Power workouts already had.
• Easier on phone — compact "Zone N" label on the HR-Zone cockpit, icon-only Import / New buttons on Workout Selection.
• AI Coach reads more of your training — peak powers, time in each zone, recovery score, and more — for sharper personalised advice.
• Workout translate now works with Claude and OpenAI in addition to Gemini.

v2.0.0 — Route mode, HR-Zone training, nine languages

Major release. Route rides and Heart-rate Zone workouts join structured Power workouts as first-class options, and the app ships in nine languages.

What's new

• Route mode — slope-driven simulation rides. Import GPX, FIT, or TCX files; the trainer follows the elevation profile, you choose the gearing.
• Heart-rate Zone workouts — a new tab alongside Power. Workouts target HR zones (1–5) instead of FTP percentages. Useful for riders without a power-capable trainer or recovering from illness.
• HR Zone-Lock ERG mode — a smart controller that holds you in a target HR zone by adjusting trainer wattage live as your HR drifts.
• Visual workout builder — drag-and-drop interval editor for both Power and HR-Zone workouts.
• Cockpit Repeat button — tap the Repeat icon on the cockpit to cycle through extra runs of the workout's main intervals: 1×, 2×, 3×, or ∞. Warm-up runs once at the start, the body loops as many times as the badge says, cool-down runs once at the end. The workout-side equivalent of multi-lap routes.
• Personal Bests — every workout tracks your best attempt per rider, with the metric matching the workout type (heart-rate cost on power, average wattage on HR-Zone, completion time on routes).
• Ghost Rider on routes — your previous best replays as a translucent rider on the terrain, with a live time-gap. Family ghosts let you race other household riders' PBs.
• Ask AI Coach about your history — type a question on the Workout History screen ("Am I improving on threshold?"); the AI Coach returns a text summary across your sessions. Read-only; available on Pro and Family tiers.
• Nine languages — English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, Traditional Chinese.
• Auto-translate imported workouts — bring in a workout in a different language; tap Translate and the names, descriptions, labels, and cues are written into your locale.
• Workout history dashboard — full history view with metric breakdowns per ride, per rider, per workout type. 28-day power-trend chart and per-zone time bars on HR sessions.
• Per-rider data export — export a rider's full data set to a portable file; restore later or move to a different device.
• Virtual gear presets — Linear (26), Road (22), MTB (12) — different gear-resistance curves for different terrain feel.
• Slope mode override — Auto / SIM / Resistance / ERG, exposed in Settings → Hardware.
• Strava sync robustness — better handling of WiFi loss, automatic deletion-detection, manual refresh button.

Fixed

Many small fixes since the v1.1.x line, covering AI builder polish, Strava reliability, route-import edge cases, history-filter bugs, and cockpit refinements.

v1.1.20 — ERG smoothing & cockpit polish

A polish pass on ERG behaviour and rider-visible metrics.

What's new

• Recover from a mid-workout HRM drop without ending the ride — the cockpit HR widget reads tap to reconnect on Power and Route rides; on HR-Zone rides the START button reverts to LINK HRM. Either way the accumulated workout data is kept.
• Configurable power and cadence display smoothing (Settings).
• Terrain graph shows target watts on each segment.
• Timeline ruler on workout and free-ride graphs.
• Interval bar shows elapsed/total time and ETA.

Fixed

• ERG power oscillation caused by excessive target-power writes.
• Cadence getting stuck at a low value during spin-up.
• Repeating intervals via skip-back no longer discards recorded data.
• Free Ride sessions now show "Free Ride" in history (was "Unknown Workout").
• Energy values display consistently with one decimal place.
• FTP field no longer snaps back when cleared.
• Smoother ERG ramp transitions between intervals.

v1.1.4 — Bluetooth GATT fix

Single-issue fix.

Fixed

• Bluetooth write error that prevented ERG mode from controlling trainer resistance on some devices.

v1.1.3 — ERG control reliability

What's new

• Share Diagnostics — tap "Share Diagnostics" in About to export Bluetooth connection logs for troubleshooting.

Fixed

• ERG mode not controlling trainer resistance on Elite Direto and other FTMS trainers — improved Bluetooth protocol compliance.
