KOVA 1.4.0 (Android)

KOVA 1.4.0 for Android, signed release build.

A maintenance release: stability work across the training flow, plus a handful of changes
shaped by the feedback I receive.

Highlights

• Locked medals render correctly now. One medal could look earned before it was
• Medals show their position in a series and how far you are to the next tier
• The award screen opens noticeably faster
• Onboarding no longer asks what equipment you have at each place. Pick where you train and KOVA filters to what fits
• Without a profile photo you get your initial, not a stock portrait
• Rest days, the done pill and the week strip now agree with each other
• Predictive back is supported on Android

Stability

• Fixed text overflow at large font sizes in the profile bar, stats and toasts
• Fixed crashes on launch and during some screen transitions
• A quick log for a past day is recorded as a finished session instead of starting a new one
• Equipment at a place is respected when generating a plan
• Exported files are named kova

Download

• KOVA-1.4.0-arm64-v8a.apk for almost every phone
• KOVA-1.4.0-armeabi-v7a.apk if that one will not install
• KOVA-1.4.0-x86_64.apk for emulators
• Android 7.0 or later, com.kova.app

Privacy is unchanged: no analytics, no ad SDK, no network code, and the INTERNET permission
is not requested at all. Only notifications, exact alarms, vibration and wake lock, all for
the rest timer.
