Gentler Streak 6.0 Lets You Rate Your Day and Add Symptoms

Gentler Streak 6.0 is now available with a feature called How I Feel, which lets you rate your day and add the symptoms and moods behind it. The app can then adjust your daily guidance, and the update also turns the Streak tab into a new Today tab and brings back the Health tab.

Gentler Stories released the free update on the App Store on November 12. The update follows Siri support in version 5.13 and the iPhone Duo support that arrived with the dual-screen launch.

Gentler Streak 6.0 Adds How I Feel

How I Feel is for the days when your data does not match how you feel. You rate the day from Off to Great, add the symptoms and moods behind it, and your daily guidance adapts when it needs to. The app already starts each day with a readiness-based suggestion that ranges from rest to high-intensity exercise, so How I Feel gives that guidance more to work with.

You find the “Anything to add?” prompt under the Activity Path on the Today tab and at the top of the Health tab. To change when the prompt appears, open Profile, Settings and then Self-evaluation prompt in the app. If you forgot to log something that affected your day, you can add it later from the Timeline or from the Calendar on the Health tab.

The Streak Tab Becomes Today

The Streak tab, redesigned for iOS 26 with Liquid Glass last year, is now called Today. A new wellbeing line under the Activity Path shows how your wellbeing changes over time, and a My Day section below it lets you reorder and personalize what you see. Under that, a 10-day or 30-day Timeline shows your moods, symptoms, vitals, sleep, cycle and workouts.

The app already lets you switch your status from Active to Sick, Injured or On a Break. In version 6.0, choosing one of those turns the wellbeing line into a Wellbeing Path that fully replaces the Activity Path. The Wellbeing Path keeps the Today tab useful on days when exercise is not a priority.

The Health Tab Is Back

The Health tab returns with a new Wellbeing Overview, an interactive chart of your wellbeing over time. The overview draws on your own entries and on your Apple Watch for the nights you wore it, so nights without the watch show only what you entered yourself. You can filter the chart by symptom to spot patterns.

Gentler Streak 6.0 requires iOS 16.0 or later on iPhone and watchOS 9.0 or later on Apple Watch. The app is a free download with in-app purchases.

A wearable can read your heart rate and sleep, but it cannot tell the app that you feel run down. How I Feel gives you a way to say so, and the Health tab lets you check later whether your symptoms line up with your data.
