I kind of love the look of Apple’s new Close Your Rings page. The design matches the Activity app icon, with lots of red, green, and that “Stand” shade of pale blue.
While we’re on the subject of Stand, I’d love to see Apple add just a bit more functionality to Stand tracking. As is, there’s a “you’ve not reached your Stand goal for the hour” and “You did it”. But nothing in between. The Activity app does show the individual stand status on a time line, but the current hour is either filled in (you reached the hour’s Stand goal) or faded (you’re not there yet).
I’m suggesting more of a status bar, something that fills up so I can see how close I am to my goal for the hour. As is, it’s a bit of a mystery how close I am. Sometimes, I get the “You did it” message and wrist tap when I reach the Stand goal, but often I do not get that completion message. Some sort of progress indicator (fill the Activity app’s bar for that hour as my Stand progresses, for example) would be a motivator for me and less frustrating.
“Sometimes, I get the “You did it” message and wrist tap when I reach the Stand goal, but often I do not get that completion message.”
You get the tap if your reach your goal between XX:50 and the end of the hour. Basically, if you haven’t reached the goal until XX:50 you’ll get a “get up” notification and one as soon as you complete that
The red and green rings are great and do motivate me. The blue ring doesn’t work for me. A couple of weekends ago I spent the day cycling and gardening. I didn’t hit my blue ring goal because I didn’t sit enough. Other days I’m up and down like pop tart all day and I get it half filled. Not sure why.
It’s a minor thing in an otherwise great product.
As @max says, you only get that message after the 50th minute of the hour. There’s really no progress to speak of for the stand hour, it needs to be a minute of standing in one shot. You don’t get credit for 10 seconds here, 10 seconds there etc.
I’ll plug my app All the Rings here though. It helps you get your rings every day by giving you better (more) alerts. For stand for example, instead of waiting for minute 50 to let you know you’re about to miss it, AtR can let you know at the beginning of the hour, so you’re sure to get it. And there are complications that will show you the status of your current hour at a glance, so you don’t have to go into the Activity app, scroll down, wait for it to update, and then try and figure out if it’s showing you the current hour or still showing the last hour.
