I’m building an Active Workout Mode for my AI fitness app — would love some feedback
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?
