In the open
What's being built.
Overload is one person working through a list, and the list is public. Everything below comes straight out of the issue tracker — nothing is curated for this page. If you report something, this is where it turns up.
Being worked on
Planned
Decided on, not started. Each one has a comment saying what it is waiting for — usually that something else matters more this month.
Known problems
Confirmed means I have reproduced it. The rest are waiting on a reply from whoever reported them.
Asked for
Ordered by votes. Give an issue a thumbs-up on GitHub and it climbs this list — that is genuinely how the next thing gets picked.
Shipped
What happens to something you report
- You file it from the report form, which writes the issue for you.
- I try to reproduce it. If I cannot, I will ask you a question on the issue — you get an email, and answering it is usually what makes the fix possible.
- Once reproduced it is marked confirmed and given a severity: does it stop you training, is it annoying, or is it cosmetic. That is the order things get fixed in.
- If it is agreed but not soon it goes under Planned, with a comment saying what it is waiting for. That is a real answer, not a polite no — a polite no gets said as one, on the issue.
- When it ships the issue closes, it appears above, and the change is in the next Play update.
Not on the list
A few things are settled rather than open questions, so nobody spends a request on them. Overload will not get an account system, ads, or a server that holds your training. And the engine will keep explaining itself — no suggestion will ever be a number with no reason attached.
iOS is a different case: it is wanted, and it is under Planned rather than ruled out. It will not start until the Android app has stopped changing shape, because every decision made twice is a decision made badly once.
This page reads the public issue tracker from your browser when you open it, so it is never out of date. The same things, arranged as columns I actually drag cards across, are on the board. If GitHub is unreachable, or you block third-party requests, the lists here stay empty and the links still work.
