How Pathium is organized

Five tabs run along the bottom. Each one holds a part of your training and wellbeing:

  • Train — exercises, workouts, and multi-week plans.
  • Move — walks, runs, rides, hikes, and ski days with GPS, plus a way to explore trails and places.
  • Recover — guided breathing, sauna and cold sessions, rest, and sleep.
  • Timers — stopwatch, countdown, and interval timers.
  • Track — Nourish (food, water, fasting), Achieve (habits, goals, to-dos), and Reflect (journal, photos, measurements).
  • The gear (top left) opens Settings.
  • The gauge (top right) opens the Dashboard — Today, History, and Statistics for everything you log.
  • The + button (bottom right) adds something to the tab you are on.
  • The search field and filter button narrow any list.
Every tab looks like this: a gear for Settings, a gauge for the Dashboard, a search and filter row, and a + button.
