What it does
ProFit is a comprehensive workout planner designed for gym-goers. The app generates personalized daily workout schedules based on user goals and provides a large library of individual exercises and pre-built programs. Key features include detailed exercise instructions with video demos, progress logging for sets and reps, and the ability to create fully custom workout routines from scratch.
Where it shines
ProFit excels at providing structure and clarity for workouts. The main dashboard (00:50) presents a clean, day-by-day view of the user's weekly plan, making it easy to see what's next. The exercise detail screen (01:03) is particularly strong, combining a looping video demonstration with clear instructions and a muscle-targeting diagram. Finally, the app's dual approach to content, offering both AI-driven daily plans and a library of 'Native' programs (03:53), serves both users who want guidance and those who prefer to choose their own structured plan.
UX highlights
- Contextual Help: A 'Description' button on the workout screen (00:57) opens a modal with warm-up advice, providing helpful information without cluttering the UI.
- Integrated Logging: Users can log their sets, reps, and weight directly from the exercise detail screen (01:32), which updates a history log on the same view, streamlining the tracking process.
- Clear Visual Feedback: Selected states for days and exercises are highlighted with a bright green outline, providing unambiguous feedback on user actions.
- Dual Workout Libraries: The app neatly separates AI-generated daily workouts from a library of pre-built, multi-day programs under 'Native' and 'Custom' tabs (03:53), catering to different user preferences.
- Video Demonstrations: Every exercise includes a video clip showing proper form (01:17), which is crucial for safety and effectiveness in a fitness app.
- In-app Rating Prompt: After a user completes an action, a non-intrusive rating prompt appears (01:26), which is a good tactic for soliciting feedback from engaged users.
Monetization & growth
Monetization is introduced at the end of the brief onboarding flow. The app uses a soft paywall (00:27) that offers a 3-day free trial leading into a weekly subscription. The paywall's design is effective, using a compelling 'before and after' visual to communicate the app's value proposition emotionally. It also lists key premium features, such as a personal training plan and an ad-free experience. The subscription is handled through the native iOS payment sheet, which builds user trust.
Who it’s for
This app is primarily for individuals who are comfortable in a gym setting but want structure and a clear plan to follow. It suits users from beginner to advanced levels, as indicated in the onboarding quiz. The detailed exercise library and logging features make it ideal for those focused on progressive overload and tracking their strength training performance over time. It's less for at-home or bodyweight-only fitness enthusiasts, as most exercises shown require gym equipment.
Notes & opportunities
The user experience is generally smooth, but the initial workout plan is very repetitive, listing the same two exercises multiple times (00:55). This could be a bug or a confusing design choice that might make users question the quality of the personalized plan. Additionally, the app requests App Tracking and Notification permissions back-to-back (00:17 - 00:21) without a warmup for the tracking prompt, which can feel aggressive and lead to a higher rate of denials.
