Show HN: Because Apple's daily rings are limited: App for weekly activity goals

https://apps.apple.com/ch/app/weekly-activities/id6746421016
3•tobias5•8mo ago
I build my 2nd iOS App as a new developer and I'm looking for feedback.

My idea was to build a weekly activity tracker because I was not happy with Apple's activity rings. I had 2 major problems with them: 1) Daily metrics. For me, I'm often having 7000 calories a week, but 1000 as a daily goal to have consistently is very unrealistic. I get the point of the daily motivation with the ring, but why not try it weekly or last 7 days. 2) Especially the stand metric is very useless I feel. I wanted different metics.

So the app is solving exactly those two issues for now.

It's tracking: - Minutes of vigorous and moderate exercise (based on time in heart rate zones 1-2 for moderate and 3-5 for vigorous) - Steps taken - Calories burned - Time spent in specific heart rate zones (Zone 1-5) - Distance for walking, running, cycling, and swimming - Flights climbed - Time in daylight - all your workouts in minutes

It's using as a time period: - this week (starting monday) - this week (starting sunday) - last 7 days

Visually, I'm using progress bars, with a projection if set to "this week". With "last 7 days" the goal would be to always have a full bar.

I'm not tracking any data The app is free https://apps.apple.com/us/app/weekly-activities/id6746421016

Happy to get feedback here. Thanks

I’ve closed all 3 rings 1700 times, and am on a 885 day streak of all 3 rings

I was excited to try this

Installed it and have some feedback

1) it’s odd that it says go to setup when you open the app, that should be the dealt screen

2) there should be a icon to click to find out what vigorous exercise is and what moderate exercise is. I have 415/140 mins of moderate exercise and 0/35 vigorous. No idea why

3) workout goals is empty by default, that is not intuitive

4) goals should be clickable to get more info , break it down for me

I like the simple layout, colours look good and overall it has potential

Im the target market for this app but don’t think I would be a regular user.

Good luck, hope some of that feedback helps
