What’s New
Every Zestimer release, newest first — the features, redesigns, and fixes as they shipped to iPhone and Apple Watch.
1.4.1
- Casting caught up with the app's new look. On a TV or AirPlay display, the workout now reads in the same typeface as everywhere else, and the current move sits cleanly inside its progress ring.
- NEXT UP names the exercise that's actually coming now — during rest too. That you're resting is already plain to see, so the screen tells you what to set up for instead. The label under the figure goes with it, and the move has the ring to itself.
- The 3-2-1 countdown sounds again when you cast.
1.4
- A new look throughout — a new typeface, warmer color, and cards that sit cleanly on the page.
- The move library, rebuilt: 100+ illustrated moves, every one of them equipment-free. Filter by body part, or by whether a move repeats or is held.
- Discover, simplified: 24 preset workouts behind two doors, HIIT and Stretch — plus the workout of the day.
- Workout lists can hide rest times now, so you see the work and nothing else.
1.3.8
- Tap the dial to pause, too — it now works just like the rest of the workout screen.
1.3.7
- Ask Siri: say "Start a Zestimer workout" to begin hands-free — Shortcuts and Spotlight work too.
- The timer keeps going with your screen locked — voice cues and beeps carry on while your phone stays in your pocket.
- A cleaner workout screen — tap to pause, swipe down to minimize, and choose your progress style in Settings.
- Discover feels faster — workout previews open instantly and glide between presets.
1.3.6
- Preview any workout on your Apple Watch before you start it.
- The Apple Watch app now follows the language you set in Zestimer.
- On Apple Watch, workouts are sorted newest first to match your iPhone.

1.3.4
