SmartGym, the 2023 Apple Watch App of the Year, is releasing a new update today that brings some of its most long-requested features. Here’s the news.
Strava sync and third-party workout support are here
Starting today, SmartGym users will be able to sync their progress with Strava, meaning any workout recorded in SmartGym will automatically appear on Strava as well.
According to the app’s developer, Matt Abras, “Strava syncing was a really popular request” and it took a few behind-the-scenes tweaks to deliver.
Since SmartGym runs independently of the Apple Watch and many users exercise without their iPhone, SmartGym had to allow for workouts to be recorded and synced without a paired phone nearby.
As a result, workouts recorded directly on the Watch can now appear on Strava without any manual steps.
In addition to Strava syncing, SmartGym now also offers support for third-party workouts, essentially aggregating workouts recorded in other apps.
So if you’re using any other workout app, including Apple Fitness+ or the built-in workout app on Apple Watch, you can now see those workouts right in SmartGym, making it your central workout dashboard.
Today’s update also introduces:
- Flexible time ranges for each progress chart, ranging from all time, 1 month, 6 months and 1 year;
- New and more customizable sharing options and templates (including new transparency options) for users who like to share their progress on social networks;
- Customization of measurement units that allows users to independently set weight units (kg/lbs), distance units (km/miles) and measurement units (cm/inches).
