What’s new
Version 2.7.5 · Updated October 20, 2026
Running Genie now works with COROS. Sign in with your COROS account and your runs come straight in, with a coaching insight on every run and a training plan built from the running you actually do. Also in this update: • Coach changes land as you asked: run time limits, no-run days, strength and cross-training days, and sessions you write out. If something can't be changed, the coach tells you. • Missed a run this week? Ask the coach to move it to today. • Reply "ok" to confirm a coach suggestion. • Shoe rack (beta) tracks the distance on each pair. • Set your own easy heart-rate ceiling for run insights. • The Activity Calendar is now in Stats.
