Peloton Guide Updates: Live Class Pre-Show Bug Fixed; New History Feature

Peloton Guide owners may have noticed two small updates in recent weeks.

First, Peloton Guide users can once again log into classes during the pre-show period. In case you missed it, we previously shared that in 2023 Guide users stopped being able to join live classes early for the pre-show – the 2-3 minutes before the class officially starts being recorded for the on-demand library. This bug plagued the device for some time, preventing Peloton Guide users from joining live classes until their exact start time.

This problem has recently been resolved, and Peloton Guide users can now access live classes during the pre-show phase on their devices.

Next, within the past few weeks Peloton Guide users received access to a “History” view within the class information – allowing them to compare previous workouts from the same class.

For example, if you click into a specific class to view the detailed information – such as class plan, playlist, body activity, etc. – you will now see a “history” line item, including a yellow alert showing that this is a new feature.

Clicking on the “history” line will bring up metrics from any previous time you took that specific class. The data shown includes the percentage of targets hit, total volume, and total reps. You will also see the date of the last time you took that particular class.

This new feature provides members with an easier way of comparing progress over time, specifically with repeated classes. This feature will likely be very handy for fans of Peloton’s various split strength training programs, which are designed to be repeated for maximum results.

Special thanks to #pelo4cafecitos for sharing the heads up on this new “history” feature on the Peloton Guide, and #HighFiveFairy about the preshow.

If you’re a Peloton Guide user, are you happy to once again have access to live class pre-shows, as well as the new “history” feature?
