Setting Up Goals

The Goals in FitnessView let you track your progress to ensure you stay on target for your overall health and fitness objectives. Goals can help ensure you do enough of a specific health goal, or they can help make sure you don't do too much. They also help you quickly and easily track various health markers.

For example, you might set a minimum number of steps you want to achieve every day but a maximum amount of consumed saturated fat.

When you make a goal active, it appears on the home screen of the app. The number of active goals is restricted in the free version of FitnessView, but you can have unlimited goals in the premium version.

There are two main types of datasets you can choose from in the Goals section of FitnessView:

• Goals with a target - for example, exercising for 30 minutes per day

Adding a New Goal with a Target

You can set up, update, and remove goals at any time. Note that in the free version of FitnessView, you can only have three visible active goals at any one time.

To add a new goal with a target, follow these steps:

1. On FitnessView's main screen, tap the settings icon.

2. Tap Goals

3. You will see two main sections: Active Goals and Inactive Goals. Scroll to the Inactive section and select the goal you want to add.

4. Every Goal in FitnessView has a default setting. You can customize the goal according to your requirements. Tap on the details section of the goal to adjust it.

5. Choose a home screen layout - progress bar or ring progress.

6. You can also change the color of the goal in FitnessView

7. Review the quick add options (if available) and adjust as necessary.

8. Once you are done, turn on the Active toggle.

9. You might be asked to give FitnessView access to your Health data. Toggle the options for write and read access to allow. Tap Allow in the top right on the screen.

Adding a New Goal for Monitoring

The process for adding a new goal for monitoring is similar to the above. The main difference is there is no goal target to set.

For many of the goals for monitoring, the only option is to change the color of the goal. Here is an example of the blood pressure goal.

Other goals for monitoring have additional options. The body temperature goal is an example. It lets you set the unit of measurement, change the color, and adjust the range.

The goals for monitoring that have additional customization options include:

• Blood glucose
• Resting heart rate
• Heart rate
• Cardio fitness
• Body temperature
• Blood oxygen
• Heart rate variability

Goals Displayed on the FitnessView App Home Screen

The way goals are displayed on the home screen of FitnessView depends on the type of goal, the layout you select, and the customization and detail options that are available. Here is an example:

You can see the different display options and goal types in this example:

• Body temperature - goal for monitoring with detailed cell layout
