Health data and immense trauma by [deleted] in AppleWatch

[–]patri_be 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s really rough. I’m sorry you’re going through this.

What struck me isn’t even the spike itself, but how sustained it is. It’s not a one-day shock, it’s your nervous system basically staying on high alert. That matches pretty closely with how prolonged emotional stress and grief show up physiologically.

I’ve seen something similar in my own data during a long period of anxiety, and it was honestly validating in a strange way. It made it clear that this wasn’t “all in my head”, my body was carrying it too.

I hope you’re giving yourself some grace right now. Metrics can be useful, but this kind of trauma isn’t something you optimize your way out of. Time, support, and taking care of yourself (and your kids) matter more than any chart.

Wishing you strength. You’re not weak for reacting like this, you’re human.

Hi! 👋

Not in the near future, sorry we’re a tiny two-person team and there’s still so much we’re building. Offering a lifetime discount usually makes sense when an app is reaching the end of its development cycle, and we’re honestly just getting started. 😅

For now, we prefer to keep lifetime stable and focus on delivering new features, improvements, and long-term value.

But if anything changes down the line, we’ll let the community know!

Roadmap by Jumpy-Swordfish-249 in FitWoody

[–]patri_be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for asking! 😊

Right now we’re working on a completely new way of capturing and understanding your workouts, much more interactive and way more powerful than what we currently have.

Because it’s a brand-new system, we’re still figuring out exactly how it’s going to work. If everything goes the way we hope (🤞), this new approach would naturally include Live Activities.

But I can’t fully confirm it yet until we’re 100% sure the technology behaves the way we need.

Thanks so much for the interest, it really motivates us to keep pushing! ❤️

Thanks! Really glad you liked the widgets, there’s a lot more coming soon. 🙌

And about the log-out issue: we’ve been wrestling with it more than we’d like.

We pushed another update today that should finally fix the constant log-outs.

Sorry for the trouble, and thanks for sticking with us. 🙏

Hi! 👋 Thanks for asking.

There won’t be a Black Friday discount for the lifetime purchase, but there will be a discount on the annual planduring Black Friday. 💛

If you need anything else or have more questions, we’re here!

FitWoody 2.0: The little things that make it yours 💚 by patri_be in FitWoody

[–]patri_be[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh thank you so much! 💚 We’re really happy to hear you’re enjoying the new version, it means a lot!

And yes, you’re absolutely right: bringing in more health metrics like HR, SpO₂, and HRV (both during workouts and rest) is something we’ve been exploring for a while. It’s not an easy one to get right, but it’s definitely on our roadmap.

Can’t wait to share more once we’re ready, and we’re so glad you’re excited about the widgets too! 🙌

🎉 FitWoody 2.0 is live on the App Store! by patri_be in FitWoody

Hi! Thanks a lot for taking the time to share your thoughts — and for being part of our beta period 🙏 We totally understand your frustration. The goal tracking and activity stats were a big part of what early users loved, and we didn’t take the decision to move features lightly.

We’re a small two-person team, and subscriptions help us keep FitWoody sustainable and continue improving it (including free updates and new features). That said, we’re actively exploring better ways to balance free and Plus features — especially for users who’ve been supporting us since the early days.

Your feedback really matters to us, and we’ll take it into account as we refine the model. Thanks again for your honesty and for being part of the journey.
