Reviewing Check-In Responses

Read what clients answered, view photo URLs they submitted, and act on it.

trainer guide/clients/[id]
What this is for: Turn raw check-in answers into actual coaching changes for next week.

Where responses live

/clients/[clientId] → Forms tab.

  1. Click Clients in the sidebar to see your roster.
  2. Select a client from the list to open the client page.
  3. Open the Forms tab to see each check-in schedule for this client.
  4. Expand a schedule to see every response with its due date and status.
  5. Each answer shows under its question, so you can act on what the client wrote.

For each schedule, the tab lists the CheckInInstance rows in chronological order with their status:

  • Pending — generated but not yet answered.
  • Completed — client answered. The response payload renders inline.
  • Missed — past dueAt with no response.

Reading a completed response

Click into a completed row. You see:

  • The original question label.
  • The client's answer (text / scale value / yes-no / number / photo URL).
  • A timestamp.

Photos are shown as clickable URL links (no in-app gallery). Click to open in a new tab.

Acting on the response

The check-in surface is read-only — you can't reply directly inside the response card. Instead:

  1. Open WhatsApp via the client's contact button (if WhatsApp configured).
  2. Reference specific answers ("noticed sleep was 4/10 last week, anything going on?").
  3. Make program adjustments in /programs if needed.
  4. Update macro targets if their nutrition feedback warrants it.

Marking missed instances

Currently, missed instances stay marked "missed" forever. There's no in-app "skip" or "excuse" button. If you don't want them to clutter the UI:

  • API: PATCH the instance with status='completed' and a note.
  • Or archive the entire schedule and start a new one.

Common pitfalls

Where to find this

  • Page: /clients/[clientId] → Forms tab.
  • API: GET /api/check-in-instances/[id] (returns instance + schedule + template + questions + responses).
