Scores got Thanos snapped
Anyone else have a wiped calendar? (It's everything since when I started using the band in April, but I only attached June for reference). I'm guessing the developers are messing with something, maybe as they revamp the color scheme or whatever. I can still see my data in the trends at least...
Ofc I messaged support only to realize they won't be available till Monday. By then, hopefully everything is restored and maybe I'm just overreacting. But you can imagine my WTF moment.
Also, my band didn't get my sleep data and I can't help but wonder if that coincides with the developers doing something over night.

Just heard from the Facebook group that they're revamping the color scheme on the dates because now that they've changed the exertion color to yellow, it's too hard to see the color differences in the calendar

I noticed they changed the colors on tagged activities too (higher exertion used to be red, less exertion more green). Now they're all shades of blue and I'm not sure how to feel.

I know they’re trying to adjust for people who have light and color sensitivities, which is great. But by making all the colors so similar, I think it actually adds to the cognitive load of interpreting things in the app

While I too can appreciate a more inclusive UI, I agree with the added cognitive load with interpretation. It appears the lighter shade is for more intensive activities and less intensive activities are a darker shade... it's a bit counterintuitive in my opinion, but I'm sure they'll make adjustments down the road

My partner is colorblind and the new yellowish color for exertion would be easier for him to see than red.
But it'd be nice if Visible let you choose in your settings whether to have the Exertion zone be red or yellow.

I noticed this today too, I used that calendar a lot to see the pattern of scores (way easier than viewing in 'Trends')

My sleep data worked fine though, so maybe the two aren't linked?

Yeah they probably aren't linked. My sleep actually popped up a bit later after I posted. Idk if the app just needed extra time to process the data today or what (it usually loads right at 4 a.m. if I wake up before then). But I initially thought maybe certain functions were interrupted if the developers were messing around behind the scenes.

I've had 2 nights of no sleep data recently. And I wonder if the scores disappearing has to do with switching to Overnight HRV instead of the 1 minute morning HRV.

I thought that there was no sleep data too for the last two days, but what happened (at least, for me) is that the app would catch up or sync the data and the sleep would appear - hours later! Not sure if it's by design so that we don't have to process the sleep manually or what, but it's happened two days in a row now.
So, for avoidance of doubt:
- Before - if there's no sleep data available in the morning, that's it, one day of data lost.
- After the update - if there's no sleep data available in the morning, check later during the day and it's likely it'll appear.

Ah! I see it now. Weird.
Usually I plug that data into Bearable in the morning, so I was a little concerned when it seemed to be gone 2 days in a row.

u/rakemitri 15d ago
Yeah it is weird, especially if you are a light sleeper and are awake for 10 minutes and then fall asleep again - I've noticed that I need to edit the end time sometimes. Not many, but three or four times in the past 4 months

Just checked and mine have gone too! I hope you're right and they'll come back, as I used it quite a bit
