What's New in the Latest Version 1.12
Last updated on Apr 3, 2022
Old Versions
I have been following some olympic weightlifting programming the last six months and have been using this app almost daily. Along the way I have added several shortcuts to make certain workflows more efficient so I can get answers quick and focus on my workout. In particular I have added several new shortcuts for calculating percentages. I hope you find them as useful as I have.
- A value can now be assigned to memory by typing in the value and pressing `->mem` instead of needing to press `alt` `->mem` or `=` `alt` `->mem`. Prior `alt` `->mem` functionality is still supported. Memory, as before, can be cleared by assigning the value of 0.
- A value can now entered in the alternate unit and be assigned to memory by typing in the value and pressing `alt` `lb->mem` or `alt` `kg->mem`. This is a shortcut for the prior workflow of entering the value, pressing `alt` `lb->kg` or `alt` `kg->lb` to convert to the selected unit, and then pressing `alt` `->mem` to assign to memory.
- A custom barbell value can now be assigned by typing in the value and pressing `->bar` instead of needing to press `alt` `->bar` or `=` `alt` `->bar`. Prior `alt` `->bar` functionality is still supported.
- A custom barbell value, if set, will now be stored and made available as an option to select along with the default barbell values. This custom value can be removed by assigning the value of 0.
- Percentages can now be calculated based on the current value or a value assigned to memory. Percentage buttons will display as `%m` instead of `%` when a value is assigned to memory indicating that they will calculate a percentage of the value in memory. You can press `alt` to access the standard `%` functionality and calculate a percentage based on the current value.
- You can now calculate an arbitrary percentage by simply typing in a percentage and pressing `%` (or `%m`).
- Full prior `%` functionality is still available allowing you to multiply, divide, add, or subtract a percentage of the current value. The calculation will happen immediately when `%` is pressed now instead of waiting for `=` to be pressed.
- You can use `+` or `-` with `%m` to add or subtract any percentage of the value in memory to the current value.
- A value can now be assigned to memory by typing in the value and pressing `->mem` instead of needing to press `alt` `->mem` or `=` `alt` `->mem`. Prior `alt` `->mem` functionality is still supported. Memory, as before, can be cleared by assigning the value of 0.

- New help content available.

- Updates to built-in plate sets.
1.5
Jun 12, 2019
Added a percentage-of-mem indicator to the display. This shows the current value as a percentage of the value stored in memory if one exists. This can be used to quickly compare the current value to a one-rep-max, your bodyweight, or any other value of interest.
1.4
May 29, 2019
Fix issue where a new solution might have been calculated as you add plates at times where it was not necessary.
1.3
May 8, 2019
- Plate sets are now optionally selectable independently of the selected unit. Additional plate sets have been added.
- All built-in barbell weights are now available for selection with either unit selected. They now keep their unit in the solution display instead of being converted to the selected unit. 44lb and 33lb options have been removed.
- Indicators for the selected plate set and barbell have been added to the display.
- Solutions larger than the current value will be considered in addition to solutions smaller than the current value if no exact match is available. The closest match is used.
- The kg and lb buttons have been merged in to a unit button which toggles the selected unit. This was done to make room for the new plates button.
