About

Stop running. Start training. VMAX puts a real coach in your pocket: every workout written by a certified running coach, every pace calibrated to you, and a plan that adapts as you get faster. Free GPS run tracking for everyone. Training plans, guided workouts, and personalized paces are part of VMAX Pro, which requires a subscription. WHETHER YOU'RE STARTING FROM ZERO OR CHASING A BQ Answer a few questions about your experience, your goals, your week, and one recent race (if you have one). VMAX matches you to a program built for your level and your schedule, then guides you through every run, segment by segment, with live pace targets and a coach's voice in your ear. No generic templates. No AI-generated workouts. Just today's run, your pace range, and an explanation of why it matters. FREE FOR EVERY RUNNER • GPS tracking with a live map, distance, duration, current and average pace, automatic splits, elevation, heart rate, cadence, and calories • Open, distance, time, and manual interval runs • Treadmill mode with step-based distance and stride calibration • Auto-pause, countdown, and hold-to-stop so a run can't end by accident • Live Activity on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Offline-first: runs save on your device and sync later. Force-quit the app or lose your battery mid-run and VMAX reopens right where you left off • Full history with route maps, weekly to all-time totals, activity charts, and streaks • Personal records and best efforts across standard distances, with shareable record cards • Share a run as an image card or straight to Instagram Stories • Apple Watch app: standalone runs without your phone, splits, route map, and post-run summary on your wrist • Apple Health read and write, run import, miles or kilometers, and a privacy screen where you can export or delete your data VMAX PRO (SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED) Everything below is part of VMAX Pro. PERSONALIZED, COACH-WRITTEN PLANS 14 programs, from the 5K to the full marathon, plus base building, speed, and stamina blocks. Every session is written by a certified coach and personalized to you through a short questionnaire. Select how many days you'd like to run per week, choose your long-run day, schedule around a race date, and preview any program before you commit. PACES THAT ARE ACTUALLY YOURS Give VMAX a recent race result, time trial, or honest estimate and it calculates your training paces, always delivered as ranges rather than a single number to hit. Stay in range and you know you're getting the intended training benefit. See your projected finish across standard race distances, and watch your paces move with you as your fitness improves. RUN WITH A COACH IN YOUR EAR Every workout comes with a full prescription (warmup, main set, recovery, cooldown), coach instructions, and a short note on what physiological adaptation the session elicits. Guided workout mode shows live per-segment targets with a pace-zone gauge on both iPhone and Apple Watch, with spoken cues in a real coach's voice, not text-to-speech. Save your favorite workouts and run them again anytime. A PLAN THAT BENDS, NOT BREAKS Miss your long run and VMAX offers to reschedule it. Come back from illness or injury and it eases you back in instead of cramming missed sessions. If your training is consistently too hard, it checks in and offers an easier level. Opt in to heat-adjusted paces and UV reminders powered by Apple Weather. Every adjustment is automatic, explained, and reversible. VMAX Pro subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings. VMAX is a training and fitness app, not a medical device. Check with a doctor before starting a new training program.
