Account configuration lives on the Profile tab. The page is organised in sections - identity, units, training preferences, privacy controls - each drilling into a row-based editor for the individual fields. Everything saves automatically as you change it.
Identity
Your display name appears on the Profile hero and nowhere else; there is no public profile surface to worry about. Your email is used for login, password reset, and any support contact, and is editable but requires confirmation on the new address before it takes effect. Password changes require your current password and apply immediately on save. Sign out ends the active session and clears any locally cached state.
Units
RepCanvas defaults to kilograms for weight. Switching to pounds re-renders every weight display across the app instantly; the underlying data stays in a single canonical unit so no rounding drift accumulates between conversions. Date format follows your browser locale and is not user-configurable in v1.
Training preferences
These settings shape how the workout logger behaves session to session.
- Progression mode - choose weight-first, reps-first, or balanced. The mode drives how the next set’s load suggestion is computed from your last performance.
- Target progression rate - the percentage you want to add each week. The default is conservative; advanced lifters tend to lower it as they progress. Per-program override is available so a high-intensity block and a recovery block can run different rates without you having to change settings each time.
- Progression deadband - the tolerance band around your target. Inside the band, the app reads “you’re tracking the program” and does not push a new load suggestion; outside it, the app surfaces a recommendation.
Changes apply across the workout logger and the strength progress tracker immediately - no refetch required.
Privacy and data controls
Three actions live in the Privacy section:
- Download my data - returns a single JSON file containing your profile, all programs, all sets, and your audit log. Documented in detail on the your data page.
- Delete my account - two-tap destructive action that removes your account and all training data. Irreversible.
- Withdraw health consent - withdraws the health-data processing consent you gave at signup. The action is logged for compliance.
Onboarding artefacts
A handful of one-time confirmations live on your profile and are useful to know about even if you rarely revisit them. The age confirmation is recorded at signup (RepCanvas requires a minimum age of 16). The health disclaimer agreed to at signup is revisitable on the profile in case you want to read it again. Links to the public Terms of Service and Privacy Policy live in the profile footer.
