Hey everyone!

I’m the solo developer behind Smart Workout Diary, and I’ve been working on a new feature that I’m pretty excited about: Active Workout Mode.

The idea is to move beyond simply logging workouts. I want the app to actually guide you while you’re training — more like having a coach with you during the session.

The current version includes:

• Step-by-step progression through exercises and sets
• Rest timers between sets
• Quick editing of reps, weight, duration, speed and distance
• RPE tracking
• Coach tips during the workout
• Preview of the next exercise
• Overall workout progress

After completing a set, the app automatically moves into recovery mode, starts the rest timer, shows what’s coming next, and then continues the workout.

I’ve attached a few screenshots of the current design.

I’m still working on it, so I’d genuinely appreciate feedback — does this feel like something you would actually use at the gym?

And if you already use workout tracking apps: what would make an AI coach genuinely useful during a workout rather than just another workout logger?

Would love to hear your thoughts. 💪

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a fitness app and would like to get some honest feedback on one feature.

The idea is to let users create a workout plan through chat instead of building everything manually. For example, someone could write:

“I want to train at home 2 times per week, focus on muscle gain, avoid jumping exercises, and keep each workout under 45 minutes.”

The app would turn that into a structured workout plan.

But the main idea is not just to generate a plan once. The app would also help with following it in real life: tracking completed exercises and sets, showing what is still left, sending workout reminders, syncing training days with the calendar, and making it easy to move a workout to another day if your schedule changes.

So it is more about combining the workout plan with execution, reminders, calendar sync, and progress tracking — not just getting a text plan from AI.

I know many AI-generated workout plans can be generic or not very useful, so I’m especially interested in what would make something like this actually helpful for people who train regularly.

Would you personally use a feature like this, or do you prefer managing your training plan manually?

What would be most important for you in a workout planner?

Hi everyone,

I’m working on an iOS fitness app called Smart Workout Diary and I’d appreciate some honest feedback on the App Store presentation.

The app is designed to help users log workouts by describing them in chat or by voice. It then tries to extract structured workout data such as exercises, reps, weight, duration, and distance.

I’m mainly looking for feedback on the App Store page itself:

• Is the concept clear?
• Do the screenshots look trustworthy?
• Is the description understandable?
• What would you improve before promoting it?

Thanks for any feedback.
