Gentler Streak Workout Tracker 12+

Beautiful in every way

I’m so happy to see Gentler Streak win App of the Year, it’s well deserved.

Unlike the default Apple Watch ring closing, which encourages you to move or workout even when you’re sick or overtrained, this app gives you recommendations on when to rest while still maintaining your streak. The specific recommended workouts help provide direction for improving fitness at a sustainable pace.

The annual subscription is very reasonably priced compared to the vast majority of fitness apps that offer you sale prices which are still 2-3x the standard price here.

My one complaint is that the Watch app’s GPS mapping is absolutely bananas. Not even close. Random straight lines through structures that are often blocks away from my actual route. It’s totally unusable if you want GPS data. (And yet it’s still a 5 star app to me, so imagine how great it would be if it had decent GPS, which the Watch is capable of.)

Better than the native workout app

Gentler streak is AMAZING. I can’t say enough about them. I have recommended the app to all my friends and it’s so much better than the rings system Apple has. This app is tailored for YOU and gives super valuable insights into your body and how you are improving your fitness and how different things of your health effect your recovery. I really can’t say enough about this app. The subscription is VERY reasonable for what you get and you also get the option to record many other workouts that the default fitness app doesn’t have. 100/10 would recommend to EVERYONE

Seems promising

Unfortunately very hard to get a sense of the app when 90% of features are behind a pay wall and there’s no free trials available

Hey! I am happy to share some insight into the app. You don't have to be subscribed to benefit from the app, as it is designed to make sense to free users as well. Please know that there is a 1 week free trial to all our Premium Yearly Plans, except those that come with special discounted offers. But if you feel like 1 week isn’t enough to get to grips with the app and decide whether this is a worthy purchase or not, you’re always welcome to contact us at support@gentlerapps.com and we’ll give you a code for an extended trial. Otherwise, the current app features include: -> 10-day Activity Path (+ the daily condition indicator) - lets you be on top of your 10-day activity trend, activity levels and their effect on your fitness. -> Daily Workout Suggestions - the Go Gentler feature holds a list of the most suitable daily actions for you, including rest days and active recovery suggestion -> Staying on top of your wellbeing by providing daily health metrics for past 10 days with your typical range and taking them into account with the guidance (for Go Gentler suggestions and also your daily condition on Streak) -> Add Workout Manually - add a workout by hand, and your efforts will show in the Activity Path. -> Estimate Workouts’ Intensity (RPE) - use the RPE scale to indicate how intense the workout felt for you. -> Set the Status - from active to injured, sick, or on a break -> Mirror Apple Watch tracking to iPhone - bring your real-time workout tracking to the big screen with Live Activity and in-app iPhone mirroring. -> Comparing past & current efforts with Activity Overview Charts - weeks, months, years, all-time -> Access to all history of Activity Recaps - monthly and yearly -> Access to all articles in the Insights library -> Sneak Peek - swipe left on the Activity Path, check your condition for upcoming days, and plan active days ahead -> Personalization - setting your profile pic, and fave icon.
