Thanks for adding the "notes" feature to add to each exercise. I'm finally getting a chance to use it and have some questions/ideas...
1) Can't re-edit notes: I notice I can only enter a note ONE time per exercise. If I enter a note, then save it, then realize I need to add additional info to the note, I cannot access it when I try to re-edit it. Is this the intention to never change the note again, or is it a bug? I know I would like to have the ability to add-on to existing notes.
2) Make the "notes" feature date specific: In your blog note you wrote : "You cannot make a note for an exercise for just a specific date at this time. We’re curious to see if this is really problem, so please let us know. " I would really like to be able to make a note for a specific date. The reason for this is, between rotations(say I do the 3.5 month rotation, then in 4 months, I may do Meso 1), I will be doing the same excercises, but, want to write different notes, applying to that day. I may have increased weight by 2 pounds on one exercise, so, I write notes to myself -- I have a shorthand version of how I load the BB. If the weight differs, so will how I load my BB. I use these notes to make my workout transitions to the next exercise move quickly. So, yes, it is a problem to have the same notes there for different workouts. I believe it's neccessary to have notes for specific dates.
3) Keep the "Edit Workout" view intact after clicking "save": When I enter info in the WM in the "Edit Workout" view, such as weights or target weights, then I hit "Save", I would like to not have the WM go to the calendar view. More often than not, I am just editing, and saving and want to stay in the "edit workout" view of the WM. It wastes a lot of time to have to click on the calendar date, then click on edit workout, and then figure out where I was, then scroll to it, just to get back to where I had left off with my editing. Why don't you just leave it in "edit" view after a "save"? If I want to get out of "edit" I should be able to hit an "exit" button to take me back to the calendar view. Would that work?
4) Add number of minutes in Disk Title in WM, printout version: I think it would be good to include the number of minutes the workout runs, in the title of the disk, in the printed version of the Workout Card.
I realize this information is on the back of the box of disks, on the "show details view of the calendar, on the "edit workout" view, but it is not on the Workout Card View--which is the printable workout card. So, on the Workout Card for Disk 3, instead of saying Disc 3 -Legs, it should say Disk 3 - Legs - 53 Minutes. Just having this minor amount of information on the Workout Card helps me plan my time better at a glance, rather than have to get my box and look at it, or go to the computer and look for it. The workout time seems to run from ~50 to ~70 minutes, and every minute counts for me(especially 4:30 in the morning!).
5) How are bugs/suggestions tracked? I'd like to find out how these bugs, questions, and suggestions are tracked. Sometimes I see questions, or suggestions(I've had some of my own), on these forums, but, there's not an acknowledgement that the question has been read, or that something will be done about it, or that nothing will be done about it. I think it would be good to have a ticket number assigned to the question/bug/suggestion just so the customer (OP) knows the status of the item. Inadvertantly I'd discover a feature was implemented, or a friend would write to tell me, but the OP's original post was never addressed on the forum. It's a good thing a feature would be implemented, but, I think it would be good if the status was noted on the forum, so the OP would know where the it stood (will it be implemented or not). I hope that made sense!
Well, that is all I have right now.
I really appreciate the upgrades at each release! Thanks again!
