Customise Sequence to fit your preferences.

Profile
Update your basic account information:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Your display name, shown on workouts and messages |
| Your login email address | |
| Profile Photo | Optional avatar image |
| Time Zone | Sets the timezone for your planner and notifications |
Your time zone affects when daily emails are sent and when workout reminders are scheduled.
If you signed in with Apple and chose not to share your name, you’ll see “Signed in with Apple” as a placeholder. Enter your preferred name to replace it.
Apple Private Relay Email
If you signed in with Apple and chose Hide My Email, your email address shows as a private relay address ending in @privaterelay.appleid.com. This is a unique, random address created by Apple.
Apple forwards all emails sent to your private relay address to your real inbox. You’ll receive Sequence notifications normally — Apple handles the forwarding automatically.
Email Verification
Verifying your email address helps secure your account. A verified email lets you:
- Recover your account if you forget your password
- Sign in with Google or Apple using the same email address
- Ensure you receive important account notifications
Checking your verification status
Go to Settings → General. Your email row shows either:
- Verified — Your email address is confirmed
- Not verified — Click Resend verification email to receive a new link
Check your inbox
After signing up, you’ll receive a verification email. Check your spam folder if you don’t see it.
Click the verification link
Open the link from your email. The link is valid for 24 hours.
Confirm verification
If you’re signed in, click Verify email to complete the process.
If you’re not signed in (for example, opening the link on a different device), you’ll be asked to choose a new password. This confirms you own the email address and signs you into your account.
A verification reminder banner appears at the bottom of the app until you verify your email. You can dismiss it, but we recommend verifying to protect your account.
Already verified through another method
Your email is automatically verified if you:
- Created your account with Google or Apple sign-in
- Completed a password reset using the emailed link
- Set your password through a coaching invite link
Sign-in Methods
Manage how you sign in to Sequence. You can use email and password, or connect an external provider such as Google or Apple.
Connected Providers
Go to Settings → Sign-in Methods to view your linked providers. Each provider shows:
- Provider name
- Email address associated with that provider
- Date connected
If you signed in with Apple using Hide My Email, the linked account shows as “Signed in with Apple” rather than the private relay address.
Connecting a Provider
Go to Sign-in Methods
Navigate to Settings → Sign-in Methods.
Click Connect
Click the connect button next to the provider you want to add.
Authorise with the provider
Sign in with your provider account in the popup window.
Confirmation
The provider appears in your connected accounts list.
Connecting a provider gives you another way to sign in. Your existing email and password continue to work. Your email address must be verified before you can connect a provider.
Disconnecting a Provider
Click Disconnect next to any connected provider to remove it.
You must always have at least one way to sign in. Set a password before disconnecting your only connected provider.
Setting a Password
If you signed up with Google or Apple, you can set a password to enable email sign-in:
Go to Sign-in Methods
Navigate to Settings → Sign-in Methods.
Set password
Click Set Password and enter your new password.
Confirm
Enter the password again to confirm.
Once you set a password, you can sign in with either your email and password or any connected provider.
Changing Your Password
Go to Sign-in Methods
Navigate to Settings → Sign-in Methods.
Enter current password
Type your current password.
Enter new password
Type your new password and confirm it.
Save
Click Change Password to save.
Exercise Defaults
These settings apply when adding a new exercise or set to a workout:
| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Weight unit | Kilograms (kg) or Pounds (lb) | kg |
| Distance unit | Kilometres (km) or Miles (mi) | km |
| Rest between sets | Default rest duration between sets | 2 minutes |
| Rest between exercises | Default rest duration between exercises | 3 minutes |
| Continue set timer into rest | Start rest automatically when a set timer finishes | On |
| Continue set timer through exercise | Alternate set timers and rests until the exercise is done | On |
| Timer prep stage | Start timers with a 5 second count-in | On |
Your unit choice affects how weights and distances display throughout the app.
The two timer continuation settings are linked. Enabling Continue set timer through exercise automatically enables Continue set timer into rest. Turning off Continue set timer into rest automatically turns off Continue set timer through exercise.
Grade scales for climbing are configured per logbook, not here. See Logbook for grade scale options.
Display
Customise how Sequence looks:
| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Theme | Light or dark | Light |
| Planner View | Default to week or month view | Month |
| Compact View | Reduce spacing for a denser layout | Off |
| Duration Totals | Show total planned duration on planner days | Off |
| Emoji Skin Tone | Choose your preferred emoji skin tone | None |
Email Notifications
Control what emails you receive:
| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly Summary | Receive a weekly training summary email | On |
| Weekly Email Day | Choose which day to receive the weekly summary | Monday |
| Weekly Email Time | Set the time for weekly emails | 6:30 AM |
| Daily Emails | Receive daily workout reminders via email | Off |
| Daily Email Time | Set the time for daily emails | 8:00 AM |
Email reminders are separate from the mobile app’s push reminders below, and are sent in your account time zone.
Push Notifications
Push notifications and workout reminders are available in the Sequence mobile app only. There are no reminder settings on the web.
Configure them in the mobile app under Settings → Notifications:
| Setting | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| System Permission | The OS-level permission, managed by iOS or Android | — |
| Push Notifications | Master toggle for all push notifications | On |
| Messages | Coaching conversation updates | On |
| Workout Reminders | On days you have a workout scheduled | On |
| Morning Reminder | Get an overview of your planned workouts for the day | On, 8:00 AM |
| Evening Reminder | Ideal for those rehab exercises you “keep forgetting” to do | On, 6:00 PM |
These settings nest, and a switch higher up disables everything beneath it:
System Permission
Granted at the OS level. If this is denied, nothing else is delivered regardless of your Sequence settings.
Push Notifications
The master toggle. Turning it off disables Messages and Workout Reminders.
Workout Reminders
Turning this off disables both the Morning and Evening reminders.
The Messages row only appears once you have at least one coaching conversation.
Workout Reminder Times
Tap either reminder’s time to change it:
- Morning Reminder — default 8:00 AM
- Evening Reminder — default 6:00 PM
Times are wall-clock times in your timezone. Reminders are sent only on days with a workout scheduled, and only for workouts that are still pending.
Data Management
Options for managing your training data:
- Export Data — Download your complete training history
- Import Data — Import workouts from other platforms (see Import)
- Clear Planner — Remove scheduled workouts (see Clearing Planner)
Connected Apps
Manage integrations with external services. See Integrations for setup instructions.
Account
Manage your account and subscription:

- Delete Account — Permanently remove your account and all data
Deleting your account is permanent and cannot be undone. Export your data first if you want to keep a copy.
Tips
Verify early Verify your email as soon as you sign up. It’s required to connect Google or Apple sign-in, and it’s how you recover your account.
Keep a second sign-in method Set a password even if you normally sign in with a provider. It gives you a fallback if provider access ever breaks.
Notification timing Set your morning reminder to land before your first training window rather than at wake-up.
