EXR 1.57: New Training Editor & Long Beach expansion
read
EXR 1.57 brings a completely redesigned Training Editor, three new routes in Long Beach and a new tier of Ultimate achievements. This update also introduces new customization items, improved visuals across all maps and a range of smaller improvements and fixes.
New Features
Create your perfect workout with the new Training Editor
We've completely redesigned the EXR Training Editor to make creating and customizing your own rowing workouts faster, easier and more flexible than ever before.
The previous horizontal editor has been replaced with an intuitive list view, giving you a clearer overview of your entire workout. Whether you're building a quick interval session or a more complex training schedule, the new layout makes it easier to organize and adjust every part of your training.
Alongside the refreshed design, we've introduced several new tools to give you more control over your workouts.
The new training features include:
- Bulk editing: Select multiple workout blocks at once to duplicate or delete them, making it much quicker to build and adjust training schedules.
- Heart rate zone training: Create workouts with targets based on heart rate zones.
- Custom workout instructions: Add your own instructions to individual workout blocks. During your rowing session, these instructions appear as on-screen notifications at the relevant moments, helping guide you through your workout.
- Intensity settings and custom tags: Assign an intensity level and add custom tags to your saved workouts, making them easier to organize and find using filters.
You can also continue sharing your custom workouts with other EXR rowers. Simply export or import workouts through your EXR web profile, or learn more in our Training Editor support guide.
Discover the Naples expansion in Long Beach
Long Beach is getting bigger! The Naples expansion adds a fresh loop in the heart of the map and three completely new routes to EXR.
The new routes are:
- Naples Loop: 1.2 km
- Naples Detour: 7.6 km
- Looping Along: 8 km
Alongside the new routes, we've made several visual improvements throughout Long Beach, giving the entire map a refreshed appearance. Whether you're revisiting your favorite routes or discovering Naples for the first time, there's plenty to explore.
And there's more on the way! We're already working on additional content for Long Beach, with further expansions planned for future updates.
Introducing Ultimate achievements
Ready for a bigger challenge? EXR 1.57 introduces Ultimate achievements, a new achievement tier designed for experienced rowers looking to reach ambitious long-term milestones.
We've added five new achievements to this tier. Every Ultimate achievement rewards you with 10,000 X-Coins and 50,000 XP.
The new Ultimate achievements are:
- Challenge Conquer: Complete a total of 350 EXR challenges.
- Training Titan: Complete 350 training schedules.
- Fortune Builder: Earn a total of 100,000 X-Coins.
- The Ultimate Collection: Buy 250 items from the EXR Shop.
- Event Dominator: Finish 150 events.
The existing My Final Achievement has also been upgraded to the Ultimate tier.
We've also refreshed the icons across all achievement tiers to create a cleaner, more consistent look throughout the app.
3 new trainers in the EXR Shop
Three new pairs of trainers are joining the EXR Shop, offering more customization options for higher-level rowers.
The following items can be found in the shop:
- S100 Trainers: 1,250 X-Coins (level requirement: 24).
- S500 Trainers: 2,250 X-Coins (level requirement: 27).
- S900 Trainers: 2,500 X-Coins (level requirement: 30).
All three pairs can be unlocked as you progress through EXR.
Improved & Fixed
Alongside the bigger additions, Update 1.57 includes several smaller improvements and fixes throughout EXR:
- Updated water visuals across EXR maps for a more detailed appearance, with higher graphics quality settings offering enhanced visual effects.
- Refreshed the route preview images for all Long Beach routes.
- Improved the player namecard system to distribute namecards more evenly on screen, reducing visual clutter when multiple rowers are nearby.
- Fixed swapped icons for the short-sleeve and regular Waistcoat Suit.
- Fixed an issue where event notifications incorrectly announced that an event had already started instead of notifying rowers that it was about to begin.
- Fixed incorrect countdown timers occasionally appearing for monthly challenges and custom goals.
- Removed the incorrectly displayed "No achievements match the filter" message from the bottom of the achievements list.
- Fixed a tvOS issue where the overlay menu could open behind the Session Report, preventing further navigation.
- General performance improvements and bug fixes.
EXR Update 1.57 will be released gradually across all supported platforms over one week. Check the App Store or Play Store for the update, or wait for EXR to update automatically.
