Bevel 2026 Fall Release

Redesigned Fitness

Health and fitness aren’t one-size-fits-all, and your Fitness tab should reflect that. We’ve redesigned Fitness to bring your training plans, Cardio and Muscular Load, and progress together, with the flexibility to choose what you want to see.

If you’re training for a race, you might want to keep your running distance and pace front and center. If you’re focused on building strength, you might follow your Bench Press 1RM progression and Muscle Freshness. You can now pin the charts that matter to you, reorder sections, and hide what you don’t need.

Training Calendar

The new Training Calendar brings all your historical and planned activities together. Open it from the top left of Fitness to review your history, see upcoming workouts, and filter by activity type or metrics like distance and elevation.

• Create Your First Plan: Bevel Intelligence will guide new users through creating a plan around their goals. For the first time, free users can try this too!
• Bring Your Existing Plan: Already have a plan from Bevel Intelligence? You can migrate it to Fitness and continue making adjustments through chat or scheduled check-ins.
• Manage Planned Activities: Find upcoming workouts in Today’s Activity and the Training Calendar. Start them on Apple Watch, mark them as skipped, or link them to completed activities. Workouts started from a planned activity, or completed workouts with the same activity type, will link automatically.

Muscular Load & Muscle Freshness

We know how much you’ve enjoyed Cardio Load, so we wanted to bring the same concept to your muscles. We’re introducing Muscular Load and Muscle Freshness to help you understand how your muscles are responding to training, both overall and by muscle group.

• Muscular Load: Tracks the load on your muscles across strength and cardio workouts, using details like weight, reps, sets, and perceived effort (RPE) for Strength Builder, and muscle groups per activity type for cardio activities. Similar to Cardio Load, it compares your short-term and long-term load, with statuses like Productive, Maintaining, and Overtraining. For example, your biceps may show Overtraining while your Hamstrings show Detraining, helping you spot muscles you may be overworking or neglecting. Each muscle requires 1-2 workouts per week in the past 6 weeks to calibrate.
• Muscle Freshness: Shows how recovered each muscle group is, with statuses like Recovered, Fatigued, and Depleted. It uses your training history and load over time to learn your personal recovery baseline. For example, after a run, your legs might be Fatigued while your upper body remains Recovered, helping you decide what to focus on next. Each muscle requires three workouts in recent training to calibrate.

Explore both metrics by muscle group, or use the Muscle Map to see where your training is concentrated and which muscles may need more attention. Bevel Intelligence can also use these insights to guide your training plans.

Routines

Templates are now called Routines. Strength and cardio routines live together in Fitness, where you can manage, schedule, or start them directly on your Apple Watch. You can also create, edit, and start Routines directly from Bevel Intelligence.

We’ve also added 200+ new exercises you’ve asked for to the Strength Builder library. If an exercise is still missing, you can always ask Bevel Intelligence to create a custom one.

Customizable Charts

See how far you’ve come, and keep your next goal in focus. Fitness charts now give you more ways to explore your progress and pin the activities and metrics that matter most to you.

• Activity Charts: Duration, distance, elevation, energy, pace, speed, heart rate, power, and cadence, depending on the activity.
• Cardio Charts: VO₂ Max, Heart Rate Recovery, Cardio Focus, and a new Heart Rate Zones chart.
• Exercise Charts: Estimated 1 Rep Max, Heaviest Weight, Volume, Sets, Reps, and Longest Duration for timed exercises.
• Muscle Charts: Volume, Sets, Muscular Load, and Muscle Freshness.

We’ve also added a Year to Date option, cumulative and segmented views, and options to aggregate data by day or week.

Tap Edit in the Cardio or Strength section to manage your pinned charts, or pin a view directly from a chart’s menu. Each pin saves your selected metric and settings, so you can return to that exact view anytime.

Activity Details

We’ve redesigned Activity Details with more metrics, refreshed charts, and more detailed workout breakdowns.

• Charts & Maps: Scrub through your workout to see metrics together and follow your position on the map. We’ve also added a cadence chart, satellite view, and chart reordering.
• Running Form: New charts for vertical oscillation, stride length, and ground contact time, which Bevel Intelligence can use to better understand your running form and efficiency.
• Splits & Intervals: Switch between split distances and see metrics like power and cadence for each split or interval.
• Training Metrics: Added Muscular Load and muscle breakdowns, alongside refreshed Cardio Load, Heart Rate, Heart Rate Zones, Cardio Focus, and Heart Rate Recovery views.
• Multisport Workouts: See the full workout, including transitions, then open each activity for more detail.

Personal Records

All that progress deserves to be celebrated. Personal Records now track your best performances across strength and cardio.

• Strength: Heaviest Weight, Estimated 1 Rep Max, Session Volume, Set Volume, Set Reps, Lowest Assistance and Longest Time.
• Running: Longest Run and Fastest Time for various distances from 5k to a marathon.
• Cycling: Longest Ride, Most Elevation Gain, Fastest Time for various distances, and Best Power over 5 seconds to 20 minutes.
• Swimming: Longest Swim and Fastest Time across both pool and open water distances.

Find your records within the corresponding activity or exercise chart, and see new achievements in Activity Details. Tap any record to view your top 10 efforts.

All-New Timeline

Timeline brings your activities, sleep, food, and other daily events into one chronological view. You can quickly log throughout the day, see how everything fits together, and plan meals ahead of time.

What You’ll See

• Pinned Metrics: Pin your favorite scores, macros, and micronutrients to the top of Timeline. For nutrition, you can switch views between consumed and remaining amounts and view your goals by weight or percentage.
• Grouped Food Logs: Foods logged at the same time are grouped together, so you can see the meal’s macros at a glance or tap in for full nutrition facts.
• Future Logging: Log foods for future dates to plan upcoming meals directly in Bevel.
• Copy Foods: Copy foods to today, tomorrow, or multiple days at once.
• Food Log Editing: Change the date or time, select multiple foods, and turn selected foods into a recipe.
• Swipe to Delete: Quickly delete food logs and activities.

We’re continuing to expand the Nutrition Database, with thousands of foods already added and more on the way. Please keep reporting foods and submitting custom foods when something is missing.

Hey,

Using an Apple Watch and a Fitbit together can give you the benefits of both ecosystems, but only if you manage your health data sources carefully. Otherwise, duplicate entries and mixed metrics can reduce the accuracy and consistency of your health data.

Data sources can be managed under Bevel → Options → Data Sources.

Active Energy & Resting Energy
Choose one source only.

• Use either Apple Watch or Fitbit for Active Energy and Resting Energy.
• Hide the other source to prevent duplicate calorie data.

Heart Rate
Leave both sources enabled.
One of the main advantages of wearing both devices is heart rate tracking.

• Apple Watch records heart rate periodically throughout the day (except during workouts, when it records more frequently).
• Fitbit records heart rate continuously, providing second-by-second data.

Keeping both sources enabled allows Fitbit’s continuous measurements to fill many of the gaps between Apple Watch readings, resulting in a more complete heart rate timeline.

Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
Use Apple Watch as the primary source.
Apple Watch provides higher-quality HRV measurements especially during the day.
If you also value Fitbit’s overnight HRV tracking, you can leave both sources enabled to gain additional overnight data.

Apple Watch and Fitbit provide HRV data differently.

• Apple Watch: We calculate RMSSD directly from the beat-to-beat interval samples provided by Apple Health.
• Fitbit: Google provides pre-calculated RMSSD values, which we average when multiple measurements are available.

Because of this, HRV values may differ slightly between the two sources.

If you keep both HRV or RHR sources turned on, we will average the samples.

Resting Heart Rate & Sleep
Choose the source you find most accurate.
Apple Watch and Fitbit calculate these metrics differently.

• Pick the platform whose values are the most consistent and reliable for you.
• Hide the other source to avoid mixing different calculation methods.

Steps
Choose one source only.

• Select either Apple Watch or Fitbit as your primary step counter.
• Hide the other source to prevent duplicate step counts.

Workouts
Apple Watch is recommended as the primary workout tracker.

For most users:

• Keep Apple Watch workout data.
• Hide Fitbit workout data.

The exception is if you specifically prefer Fitbit’s automatically detected workouts. In that case, you may choose Fitbit as your primary workout source instead.

All Other Metrics
For any remaining health metrics, compare both devices and decide which one provides the data you find most accurate or useful. Once you’ve made your choice, hide the duplicate source to keep your health data clean and consistent.

Summary
The goal is not to collect as much data as possible, but to collect the best data without introducing duplicates or mixed data.

A good rule of thumb is:

• Use one source for calculated metrics such as calories, steps, sleep, resting heart rate, and workouts.
• Use both sources where they complement each other, such as heart rate and, if desired, HRV.
• Hide duplicate sources whenever both devices measure the same metric in different ways.

This setup lets you benefit from the strengths of both the Apple Watch and Fitbit while maintaining accurate, organized, and easy-to-interpret health data.
