## What is WatchFit?

WatchFit is the ultimate fitness workout companion designed specifically for Apple Watch users who want to take their exercise routines to the next level. This app empowers you to create custom structured workouts tailored to your exact needs and seamlessly integrates them into the native Workout app on your Apple Watch, offering a smooth and personalized training experience.

With WatchFit, building your perfect workout schedule has never been easier. You can customize every element of your training with detailed control over warmup, cooldown, and interval phases. Whether your workout steps are based on time or distance, WatchFit supports them all. For endurance sports such as running and cycling, it even offers distance-based step options, enhancing your precision and control in each session.

You can plan your fitness routine ahead of time and watch as scheduled workouts automatically sync to your Apple Watch. Once added, these customized workouts appear right on the Workout app on your Apple Watch's home screen, ready to be started at the perfect moment, helping you stay accountable and motivated.

One of the standout features of WatchFit is its advanced heart rate monitor integration and in-workout alert system. You can set up pace or heart rate alerts that notify you if you stray above or below your target zones during exercise. This real-time feedback keeps you in your ideal training intensity, ensuring every workout is optimized for maximum benefit.

Managing your weekly fitness workout schedule is streamlined through an intuitive interface that lets you view your upcoming workouts, track completed sessions, and identify any missed ones. This visibility promotes consistency and helps reinforce your training habits. Plus, with calendar integration, your scheduled workouts are automatically added to your calendar app, so you never accidentally skip an important session.

Privacy and security are paramount in WatchFit’s design. Unlike many fitness apps, WatchFit requires no account setup, and purchases are handled anonymously. Your custom workouts sync securely to your iCloud account, ensuring your data stays private and intact even if you switch devices or reinstall the app. WatchFit doesn’t gather user analytics or access personal workout data beyond verifying if workouts were completed, giving you full confidence in your privacy.

Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting your fitness journey, WatchFit equips you with the tools to create personalized workouts that match your unique goals. By adding your workouts directly to the Apple Watch native Workout app, you reduce distractions and streamline your fitness experience, allowing you to focus fully on performance and progress.

With its user-friendly scheduling, structured workout routines, heart rate alerts, and seamless Apple Watch integration, WatchFit is much more than a simple fitness workout app—it’s an intelligent fitness partner that supports your active lifestyle with precision and privacy. Maximize your training, stay committed to your goals, and enjoy the empowerment of having all your workouts perfectly organized on your Apple Watch home screen.

Note: For the best experience, WatchFit is optimized for Apple Watch devices running watchOS 10 or later, paired with an iPhone.

### 5/5 — Appreciate this app

*2026-01-07*

Helped me PR the New York marathon!

**Developer response:** Hi Julianne, thanks for the review! Do let me know if you think of a feature that would help you further reach your goals.

Good luck for Berlin, I am also running it this year! I hope you manage to PR it🤞

### 5/5 — Appreciate this app

*2025-08-12*

Training for the Berlin Marathon and trying to PR it and this app is helping me meet my goals each session. Can highly recommend.

**Developer response:** Hi Julianne, thanks for the review! Do let me know if you think of a feature that would help you further reach your goals.

Good luck for Berlin, I am also running it this year! I hope you manage to PR it🤞

### 5/5 — Time Saver

*2025-04-02, version 1.11.4*

Saves a whole lot of time vs making a custom workout directly on the watch

### 1/5 — Doesn’t send workout to the Iwatch

*2025-03-20*

I doesn’t work, the concept is good

**Developer response:** Sorry you’re having an issue, I am here to help!

If you are sending your workouts directly to your Apple Watch via the purple button (ie: not scheduling), watchOS may not always surface it automatically to your main workout list. This is how Apple Watch works and out of the devs control. If this is the case, you have to tap the three dots in the upper right corner and then your custom workout will show in the Suggested list. 
Please don’t hesitate to contact me directly via the app or at support.watchfit@mathieusavaria.com so I can help you resolve this.

### 5/5 — Superb!

*2025-02-27*

I have used subscription based running training apps before, and this app means as long as I know the workouts I want to do, I don’t have to be a slave to the subscription. Easy interface to build any workout, send it to your Apple Watch, schedule it, and then run it in the native workouts app. He’s just added pace presets as well which makes it even easier to build a workout instead of inputting the exact pace every time. A really useful feature which shows a lot of thought and care going into this app!

### 5/5 — Pushes workouts to watch

*2024-09-24*

This app does an excellent job at adding workouts to the Apple Watch. It’s easy to use and frequently updated with bug fixes and enhancements.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review! Many more enhancements are to come 🙂

### 5/5 — Nice simple app, developer very responsive.

*2024-07-03*

Works as advertised. Developer has been very responsive to questions and has been updating the app regularly. If you are a runner, check out RunFit, another app by this developer that shows complications of your running mileage on the Apple Watch.

**Developer response:** Thank you for this nice review, I appreciate it!

### 5/5 — Widgets

*2024-05-30*

Would love to see some phone and watch widgets to display data.  Thank you!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! There’s actually home screen and lock screen widgets that will display your upcoming workouts.

What other kind of widgets would you like to see? You can send an email at support.watchfit@mathieusavaria.com with more details and I’ll look into it!

### 5/5 — Good app

*2023-11-14, version 1.2.3*

Easy to use.

### 3/5 — No alerts?

*2023-10-21*

Can’t set heart rate or pace alerts, which really doesn’t make this very useful for interval training and really any structured workouts.

**Developer response:** Edit: Pace and Heart Rate alerts are now available in version 1.2.0. Enjoy!

Hello, thanks for reviewing!
Heart rate and pace alerts are indeed coming in the next major version (I’m hard at work on them as I am typing those words).

I know that this is an important feature and I am bummed that I couldn’t get it ready in time for the launch, but it is coming very soon. The app is made by just me, so it is always a hard game of prioritization of features over others.

Hope you’ll consider updating your review once the feature is released. 🙂
