v 1.7.31

Happy walking! For iOS 16, we've added Lock Screen widgets, Siri Shortcuts support, and weather in your workouts. Read on for details!

This update includes bug fixes and performance improvements.

More about our new features:

1) Lock Screen widgets. We've added a bunch of widgets, including a detailed summary of the day, an hourly chart of your activity, and a one line summary, as well as circular gauges showing goal progress and a single measure of your choice.
2) Shortcuts & Siri. Try saying, “Hey Siri, how many steps today?” You can also say things like "change my Steps goal", or "start a Steps workout with a distance goal". And of course, in the Shortcuts app, you can use these as building blocks for your own shortcuts.
3) Weather. Recording a workout? Steps now shows the current weather, and highlights any weather alerts. It will even let you know if it’s about to start raining! Once your workout is done, we show a summary of the weather during your workout. And if you've given Steps permission to work with Apple Health, Steps saves weather conditions there too.
