Now that Sports Tracker is collaborating with a release of Android devices, does that mean Android users will finally get the heart rate zones functionality that iOS has had since 2013?
Considering the vast market for wearable devices that now track heart rate, it would make sense for Sports Tracker to work with them as well as show this info.

Hi!
Was looking to comment on the post about the new website, but wasn’t able to – maybe you have disabled the comments.
However, I’d like to post some feedback to the new site.
First of all I think it’s harder to find statistics now than it was with the old site. I miss the feature where I could just click the weeks on the calendar and get summaries right away. Now it reqiures a lot more steps to find the summaries (time and distance) for each activity.
The overview at the top of the site also seems at bit messy to me. Again, a strict calendar would’ve made it easier to see and understand.
I get that users wanted the site to be flash-free (personally I never had trouble with this), but it seems that some of the great features had to give place due to this. I’d love to have the calendar back, with the simple and useful look, or some easier way to find the summaries.
The iPhone app still looks quite the same as it did when I took a pause from my training, and I like that.
Plus, I’m wondering: how can I unfriend users? I have users that are no longer active on ST, I’d like to remove them and clean my news feed in the app.
Thanks, and keep up the good work! :)
