iPhone and Apple Watch

A week of short exercises, planned around you.

Tell Actiiv your goal and how hard you want to go. It builds a simple plan of exercises you can do at home, with no equipment, reminds you at sensible times, and adjusts as you tell it what felt right.

Works with or without an Apple Watch. Requires iOS 26.4 or later.

How it works

From a few questions to your first exercise in a minute.

Setup is short, and you can skip anything you would rather not share.

Choose a goal

Reduce sitting, move more, build strength, improve cardio, stay consistent or recover well.

Pick a level

Soft, Medium, Pro or Extreme. You can change it whenever it stops feeling right.

Get your plan

A week of exercises built from your goal, your level and, if you allow it, your recent activity in Apple Health.

Move, then tell it how it felt

Too easy, about right or too hard. Future plans take that into account.

What you get

Everything to make a small habit stick.

A plan that fits

Seven days of short exercises in six types: walking, mobility, strength, cardio, recovery and stretching. If Apple Health has no history yet, you start with a gentle starter plan.

Right for your level

Soft sessions are about 5 to 8 minutes. Extreme sessions run 15 to 20. Your birth year, if you share it, keeps suggestions suitable for your age.

Reminders you can act on

Each exercise gets a reminder at a planned time. Tap Done, Snooze for 30 minutes or Skip straight from the notification.

Run it from the Dynamic Island

Start an exercise, leave the app, and pause, resume or finish it from the Dynamic Island or Lock Screen. A "Time's up" alert tells you when the timer ends.

Nudges when you have been still

Without a Watch, Actiiv can notice from your step count that you have been still for a while, and suggest your next exercise. It stays inside your active hours.

Progress you can see

A day streak, exercises and minutes this week, and a seven-day strip. Skipping one exercise skips only that one, so a bad moment does not ruin the day.

Live Activity

Your exercise, without opening the app.

Once an exercise is running, it stays in the Dynamic Island and on your Lock Screen with a live countdown.

  • Pause and resume from the island, and the clock stops and restarts.
  • Tap Done when you finish. Ending very early counts as skipped, not completed, so your history stays honest.
  • Start it in the app. iOS only lets an app begin a Live Activity while it is open, so the first tap happens in Actiiv.

Screens

Clear, calm, quick to use.

Levels

Start where you are.

Pick the intensity that feels right today. Nothing is locked.

SoftGentle walks and easy stretches, 5 to 8 minutes. Great for getting started.
MediumLight cardio and standing exercises, 8 to 12 minutes.
ProModerate strength and core work, 10 to 15 minutes, for regular exercisers.
ExtremeDemanding sessions of 15 to 20 minutes, for people who already train.
Apple Watch

Better with a Watch. Complete without one.

If you wear an Apple Watch, Actiiv can send your exercises to your wrist and remind you there. The Watch shows today's exercises and the week ahead, with the time each one is due, and finished exercises can be saved to Apple Health as workouts.

  • This Week shows today's exercises with their times and the days to come.
  • During an exercise the Watch shows your heart rate and active calories.
  • Movement breaks prompt you after a long still period.

No Watch? Everything else works on your iPhone alone: reminders, exercises, the Dynamic Island, nudges and progress. Actiiv detects which you have, and you can change it in Settings.

Questions

Good to know before you download.

Do I need an Apple Watch?

No. Actiiv works fully on an iPhone. A Watch adds exercises and reminders on your wrist and movement breaks.

Which devices does it need?

An iPhone running iOS 26.4 or later. The Watch app needs watchOS 26.4 or later.

Do I have to share my Apple Health data?

No. If you do, Actiiv uses your recent steps, activity and workouts to fit your plan. If you do not, you get a gentle starter plan based on your goal and level, and it still works.

Is it medical advice?

No. Actiiv gives general wellness and exercise suggestions. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose or treat anything. If you have a health condition, are pregnant, or are unsure whether an exercise is safe for you, talk to a doctor or other qualified professional first, and stop if you feel pain or unwell.

Does it need an account?

No. Signing in with Apple is optional. Your plan and settings are saved to your own iCloud, and signing in with Apple restores them on a new device.

How does pricing work?

Actiiv is a subscription with a 7-day free trial, billed monthly or yearly. The price is shown in the app and on the App Store before you subscribe. The subscription renews automatically until you cancel, and you can cancel at any time in your Apple ID settings. If you cancel during the trial you are not charged. If your subscription ends, Actiiv asks you to subscribe again to keep using it.

Can I restore my subscription on a new phone?

Yes. Open Actiiv and tap Restore purchases on the subscription screen, or in Settings. It uses the Apple ID you subscribed with.

Something is not working. Who do I ask?
