New in UpBeing 2.6.0:

  • A redesigned interface that puts connection at the centre of UpBeing.
  • Apple Watch and 3rd party applications (Oura, Fitbit, Garmin) are now faster and more reliable.
  • ICS links are no longer required to add your e-calendar to UpBeing; any native calendar on your phone can be connected directly to UpBeing.
  • Invitations are a one-step process: invite anyone from your contacts list without leaving the UpBeing application.
  • A redesigned check-in flow makes logging your mood quicker while letting you add important context with on-demand reflections and all new in-app journaling.

During our November release, we learned that when folks add others to their UpBeing account, something truly magical happens - people feel supported, connected and a sense of belonging. They feel their best. But only 1 in 15 people added someone else and many didn’t even realize they could add people.

So, we’ve rebuilt UpBeing to put the people you care about front and centre in your wellbeing.

We’re excited to announce our first major 2024 release...

Whether you’ve tried the public beta version of UpBeing or not, UpBeing Social is a new and different way of looking at your wellbeing: with the people you love at at it’s core.

UpBeing is hitting the ground running in 2024 with a redesigned interface that puts connection at the centre of UpBeing, key bug fixes like improved wearable integrations and new flows that make using UpBeing with friends and family easier and smoother than ever before.

Your Orbit: Front and Centre

When we feel connected to the people around us, we feel more motivated, more productive, and more satisfied with our lives. That’s why your orbit is now front and centre in the UpBeing app.

With this big change comes brand new ways to interact with your orbit and other exciting changes to the UpBeing experience…

New Features in UpBeing

A redesigned check-in flow makes logging your mood quicker while letting you add important context and reflections to your check-ins.

Feelings first! A redesigned check-in flow makes logging your mood quicker while letting you add context with in-app journaling and additional reflections to anchor your day - all on demand.

A new past day explorer makes reflection a bigger part of the UpBeing experience and a re-engineered invitation flow makes it easier than ever to share your wellbeing with the people you care about without leaving the UpBeing app.

UpBeing Social also comes with relational insights that help you understand how your wellbeing relates to the people in your orbit and the entire UpBeing community.

Understand how together you are with orbital dynamics insights and new ways to communicate with your support network through signals and poke-to-remind.

This is just the start! More new features and exciting product updates are on the way in 2024!

A New Year for UpBeing

A year ago, UpBeing was a web application without a single line of mobile code. This past November, we released our app publicly on both iOS and Android.

Today, UpBeing is running smoother than ever with many important bug fixes:

  • Apple Watch and 3rd party applications (Oura, Fitbit, Garmin) are now faster and more reliable
  • ICS links are no longer required to add your e-calendar to UpBeing; any native calendar on your phone can be connected directly to UpBeing
  • Invitations are a one-step process: invite anyone from your contacts list without leaving the UpBeing application.

If you're a current UpBeing user, then we hope this new release will help you kick off the new year with some new tools to connect with yourself and your loved ones. If you're a past user, then we'd love to welcome you back to try UpBeing again! We've been listening to your feedback and hard at work bringing your suggestions to life.

With gratitude,

UpBeing
