## What is Momentum?

Momentum is your personal endurance coach. It builds a training plan around your body, your schedule, and your race, then adapts it week by week from how you're actually recovering.

Most running apps hand you a rigid plan and hope for the best. Momentum reads your sleep, resting heart rate and HRV, watches your training load, and adjusts before you break down. No hype. No shame. Just steady progress, from your first 5K to your first marathon

A PLAN BUILT FOR YOU
• A personalized training plan for your race: 5K, 10K, half, marathon, or ultra
• Paces set from your real fitness, not a generic table, and recalibrated every time you get faster
• Race day is on your calendar, with a taper that follows the science and a recovery block after
• Honest verdicts: an on-track or at-risk read on your goal, early enough to act on it

YOUR HEALTH DECIDES YOUR TRAINING
• Readiness from your sleep, resting heart rate and HRV, straight from Apple Health
• A rough night eases today's session; a rising training load eases your week
• Injury-smart: flags risky load spikes before they hurt, and guides a careful return when something flares
• Recovery is part of the plan, not an afterthought

GUIDED RUNS, REAL COACHING
• Structured workouts with live pace and heart-rate zones: tempo, intervals, race-pace long runs
• A post-run breakdown that actually teaches: splits, pace, HR and elevation, in plain language
• Race-week briefing, fueling guidance, and a shakeout the day before

STRENGTH FOR ENDURANCE
• Short, runner-specific strength sessions that build durability and cut injury risk
• See exactly which muscles you worked, session to session

BUILT FOR APPLE, BUILT FOR YOU
• Native, beautiful, fast, and private: your training data is yours
• Deep Apple Health integration (Apple Watch, Garmin, Oura, Whoop all flow in through Health)
• Works offline. Every run and set is saved the moment it happens

Momentum keeps you moving: fitness you can trust, without the burnout.

Fueling guidance, never dieting. Coaching, never a diagnosis.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.7.5 — 2026-09-08

A new welcome, a cleaner setup.

• The welcome is now a gallery of real runners. Tap Build my plan and the photographs gather into the momentum icon, then open into your setup in one motion.

• Setup is white, minimal and quick: the same clean room from the first question to your plan, with the progress line in the brand purple.

• Your plan reveal hands forward on the first tap, every time.

• Start with 3 days free on the annual membership. Try the full adaptive plan, coach and voice guidance before paying anything. Cancel anytime.

• Faster first launch: the welcome photographs are a fraction of their previous size.

• Fixes throughout, including a scroll that could stop responding on the plan reveal.

Keep moving.

### 1.7.0 — 2026-09-03

Run replays are here now!

Route Replay draws your route back the way you ran it and saves it as a video you can share. Open any run with a route and tap Replay.

Also in this version:

• A new plan reveal. Your name lands, your block draws itself as terrain, and a runner runs it to your goal. Same honest plan, shown the way it deserves.

• Permissions first. Notifications and location are asked before your plan is built, so nothing interrupts the reveal.

• Start with 7 days free. New runners try the full adaptive plan, coach and voice guidance on the annual membership before paying anything. Cancel anytime.

• An activity inbox for real interactions from other runners, and a faster community wall.

• Clearer Health wording: momentum reads recovery signals and workout time windows, never your workouts.

• Fixes throughout, and better crash reporting so the rare failure gets fixed faster.

Keep moving.

### 1.6.0 — 2026-08-30

Your coach speaks now, even with your phone locked.

Voice coaching used to go quiet the moment your screen turned off. It doesn't any more. Splits, pace checks and the next effort come through your headphones for the whole run, and your Apple Watch says the same words at the same time.

Also in this version:

• A new plan reveal. Your training block draws itself as a curve, week by week, so you can see the shape of what is coming before you start it.

• Cleaner sessions. Your plan asks for 20 mi, not 20.32 mi. Every distance and pace is written the way a coach would write it.

• Better weeks for runners who lift. If you have a race on the calendar, your running days are protected first and the lifting fits around them, instead of the other way round.

• Everyone is now asked how long they have to train, so no session is built on an answer you were never given the chance to make.

• A strength chapter in Trends. The muscle wheel and the body map are lit by the same light, so you can see what you have actually loaded this week.

• Community page is faster and more responsive

• Fixes throughout: steadier post-run pages, clearer empty states, and the units question now comes before anything is quoted in them.

Keep moving.

### 1.5.0 — 2026-08-30

A new look, end to end.

• Redesigned throughout — brighter, cleaner surfaces, clearer type, and smoother motion in every corner of the app.
• A rebuilt setup flow that gets you to your training plan faster.
• Health: your day at a glance. Strain, Load and Sleep rings you can tap for the full story behind each number.
• Trends: a new training calendar and redesigned charts, so your progress reads in a second.
• A better dark mode, faster pages, and dozens of small fixes.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-08-26

Starting a run is now one continuous motion. Tap Start and the map you are looking at becomes the recording, with a quicker countdown that arms the moment it says go.

Fuel is a complete tracker on one page. Your day files itself into morning, midday and evening with calorie sums, meals can grow an item after logging, and one press repeats a usual. The health gauge now opens a full month of nutrition: score and energy trends, floors hit, processed share, your staple foods, and minerals.

Choose your strength split. Push pull legs, upper lower, full body, or leave it to the coach. Pick it in onboarding or change it anytime in plan settings, and every day is named and rotated so nothing gets skipped.

Charts across Progress line up perfectly with their dates and read cleaner at every range.

A fresh lavender look throughout, plus dozens of fixes to make everything feel faster.
