The Outsiders app, developed by Gentler Stories, received an update to version 1.7.6, focusing on deeper workout insights for runners and cyclists. The Splits interface has been renamed to Breakdown and now offers a more detailed view of workout data, including intervals, manually marked segments, and equal-distance splits for various activities like running, cycling, and swimming.
The update introduces new customizable sharing features, allowing users to post their training sessions with different map styles, backgrounds, and selected workout statistics. This functionality enables users to personalize how they present their workout achievements on social platforms.
For runners, the app now includes the Relative Intensity metric, previously exclusive to cyclists. This metric compares a runner's average heart rate with their lactate threshold heart rate to assess workout effort relative to personal limits. Additionally, the update integrates temperature data from non-Apple Watch devices that sync with Apple Health, making this body metric visible within the app. The Personal Goals user interface also received a refresh.
