LiftTrace is a self-hosted weightlifting tracker (Docker + Android, AGPL-3.0). rc.5 is the next public roll-up, bundling everything since the rc.4 release.
What's new
Scheduled automatic backups. Settings → Backup → Schedule lets you pick a time + frequency (daily / weekly). Server installs get an admin UI with optional ENV lock for managed deployments; the Android app does the same for offline-only users, writing scheduled backups to device storage or the share sheet.
Multi-architecture Docker image. The public image at ghcr.io/traceapps/lifttrace now ships both amd64 and arm64 builds, so Raspberry Pi 4 / 5 and other ARM self-hosters can docker compose up -d without building from source.
Default session length raised. From 30 days to 1 year so PWA users stop getting signed out every month. Admins can still set their own session length under Settings → User Management → Session Length.
Better biometric failure path on Android. When a stored auth token has expired, biometric sign-in now surfaces a clear "Session Expired" prompt instead of silently bouncing back to the Login screen with no explanation.
Fixes
INSECURE_COOKIESis now called out inline in the exampledocker-compose.ymlwith a comment explaining the failure mode (every request 401s after a successful login because the browser drops theSecurecookie over plain HTTP); README troubleshooting entry expanded with the exact Firefox console message that confirms the diagnosis (#4)- Sync pulls no longer clobber local pending edits. An incoming server pull respects in-flight local changes instead of overwriting them with older data.
- Sync now clears local auth state on a 401 response so the user gets prompted to sign in again, instead of the app looping silently on every subsequent request.
Install / upgrade
- Docker: pull the new image and restart your stack (see the README for compose snippets)
- Android: signed APK on the release page
- Full CHANGELOG: main repo

Welcome back OP! Did you just add RPi support or did I miss that last go 'round?
just added. Was a request for my other NutriTrace App so made sure to add it here as well.
Nice. My doctor forbids me to lift weights because of an aortic aneurysm, but I do light resistance training like pushups but against the wall, , speed walking, that sort of thing. Anything in your app to accommodate that sort of excercise?
The app is primarily aimed at lifting weights but does also account for body weight exercises such as pullups, pushups, etc. with respect to walking/running/cycling etc, i have that incorporated into my other app which is primarily focused on nutrition/wellness called NutriTrace.
