## What is PushSense?

Make every rep count. PushSense counts your push-ups hands-free and keeps your workouts, programs and progress in one place.

Place your iPhone flat on the floor, screen facing up, with the front camera beneath your face. Get into a high plank, tap Quick Start and wait for the countdown. PushSense counts each repetition as you move down and back up. Before your very first set, a quick placement check waits until you're ready.

NEW: PUSHSENSE ADVENTURES

Adventures turn your workout into a story, and your reps move it forward. In Kitten's Way Home, a lost kitten tries to find his way back up the mountain across six illustrated chapters. Each chapter is a two-set workout: the story sets the scene, each counted rep lights up the picture, and the chapter closes when you finish your planned sets. Extra reps are never required, and the story never depends on them. Its workout plan is designed from published research; the research did not test these exact plans or games. Finished the story? Play again from Chapter 1.

PUSHSENSE JOURNEYS

Free guided programs with clear goals, at your pace, designed from published research. We apply research on training dose, effort, recovery and routine-building to each program; the research did not test these exact programs. Foundation offers six guided workouts for a steady start. Push Break makes movement part of your workday with one manageable set per break, across ten different days. Each program explains the research behind it in the app.

POWERED BY PUSHSENSE ADAPT

Adapt suggests reps for each set, plus rest when a program has more than one set. It uses your recent recorded workouts and optional "How did that feel?" feedback. A workout rated Too hard can lower your next target; if Adapt holds your targets because a rest was cut short, the program page suggests resting longer. Whenever Adapt changes your plan, Keep previous is right beside it. Prefer your own numbers? Choose Fixed. Every program offers optional reminders on the days and time you choose, and missed days never add catch-up work.

MAKE EACH WORKOUT YOUR OWN

Finish a set whenever you're ready. Add another set after a rest, or finish your workout. Adjust rest in 10-second steps, or skip ahead when you're ready to continue.

SEE YOUR PROGRESS

Review completed workouts, individual sets, recent activity and longer-term charts in your local History. Browse older sessions, and delete individual workouts whenever you choose.

CELEBRATE, SHARE AND EXPORT

End a workout with a reward and an encouraging message. Share a workout image with the iOS share sheet; an Adventure chapter shares with its own picture. From Settings, export all saved workouts, or a date range, as a CSV file.

Automatic counting, Journeys, Adventures, Adapt, History, rewards, sharing and CSV export are free. No PushSense account is required.

YOUR SAFETY

Choose an effort you can control, and stop if you feel pain or feel unwell. PushSense counts standard push-ups with fixed phone placement. Programs and Adventures offer workout suggestions. PushSense does not assess your form, or whether exercise is safe for you, and it is not medical advice. Counting depends on placement and usable depth measurements. Workouts and program progress are stored on this iPhone, without PushSense cloud sync.

COMPATIBILITY

Requires an iPhone with a TrueDepth camera (Face ID models) and iOS 26.0 or later. iPhone SE is not supported.
