Faster manual entries
Logging a meet by hand in the app takes fewer taps. Recent meet names appear as chips under the Meet Name field, and tapping one fills the date too. The course starts on the season's, long course in summer and short course in winter, the way the course tabs already do. Choosing an event sets the time picker to the swimmer's best in that event, so you adjust from there instead of from zero. After a save, the swimmer, course, date and meet stay put for the next time, and the app warns before saving a time it already has.
Time cut alerts
A push the moment a swimmer makes a cut — or comes within half a second of one. Alerts follow each swimmer's Standard Preferences, so you only hear about the standards you actually care about, and high-school swims count too. When one swim clears several cuts, the alert leads with the most prestigious and counts the rest. Tap it and the app opens straight to that swim.
Fewer surprise sign-outs
A brief hiccup reaching the server used to sign you out of the app. It no longer does — the app checks twice before it gives up on a session, and a server that's busy is no longer treated as a session that has expired.
Message Center
Email and push settings now live together in one place in Settings. New-time pushes are bundled: instead of a buzz per swim, you get one notification per batch of results, with the option to hear about personal bests only or turn them off. Time cut alerts and the weekly recap push each have their own switch, and the standards each swimmer is tracked against can be edited right there. The same Message Center is in Settings on the web app.
Weekly Recap, swimmer by swimmer
The recap page now gives every swimmer their own card: each swim from the week grouped by day, the best swim of the week called out, every cut it cleared, and a New PBs count up top. Nothing from the week is left out.
Standout Performance
The recap picks the week's single best swim — the personal best that gained the most Power Points, not just the biggest time drop — and shows it with its Before and Now times and the standard it cleared. Below it, a short leaderboard of the week's biggest drops. The Thursday recap email carries the same headline.
Weekly Recap in the app
The weekly recap email now has a home in the app. The dashboard opens with a deck of cards for the week — new PBs, new cuts, the standout — that you swipe through, and a full recap page behind it. A push lands Thursday when the week is ready. Swipe to the end for a small celebration, then minimize it, or reload it and go through the week again.
A new way around the app
A floating tab bar, your account behind the avatar in the header, and one action drawer for adding swimmers, logging a time, Pacer, Charts and Compare. Search opens as a sheet with your recent searches and suggested swimmers — ranking neighbors of the ones you already follow — plus filters that stick. Compare gets the same search, with star-to-save. Cards across the app got softer corners while we were at it.
High-school meets, everywhere
High-school swims now show up in the Meets tab alongside club meets, and they feed the new-times notifications and time cut alerts like any other result.
Power Index and the new season
The season flipped on September 1, and for a few weeks most swimmers have no swims in it yet. Rather than a blank card, the Power Index now shows last season's score, labeled as last season, until the first new meet — and a season picker lets you look back at any year.
