When the built-in metrics do not cover something, define your own. Track focus, soreness or pages read, for example.

​
Kinds

​
Create one

1

Open Tracked metrics

Open the menu, then Tracked metrics.
2

Tap Create custom metric

Give it a name and an icon, then choose its type.
3

Add a unit (optional)

A Number metric can have a unit, like pages or kg. The unit shows beside the field on Log.
4

Tap Create metric

The metric appears on the Log tab straight away.
Tap a custom metric under Tracked metrics to rename or change it.

​
Where it appears

  • Log: every custom metric appears here, with the control for its kind.
  • Quick-add: Scale 1–10 and Yes / No metrics appear here. Number and Text metrics stay on Log.
  • Insights: Number, Scale 1–10 and Yes / No metrics can take part in connections. Text metrics cannot. See Insights.
Like every metric, a custom metric you skip on a day stays blank. VitaSync never fills in a zero.

​
Archive a metric

Archiving hides a metric and keeps its history. Open it under Tracked metrics and tap Archive metric. It disappears from Log, quick-add and Insights. Archived metrics are listed under Archived on the same screen. Tap one to bring it back. Its history was kept the whole time.
Archive is the reversible choice. Use it unless you are sure you are done with the metric.

​
Cloud backup

With cloud backup on, your custom metrics and their values are copied. See Cloud backup.
