Workouts vs Pulse

Workouts enables you to track your workout progress by date or grouped by week/month/year to make it easier to see your progress over time. It also offers a more visual way of displaying your workouts to further simplify comparing your weekly/monthly/yearly progress. You can track workouts by using any of the health & fitness apps from the App Store or by using your Apple Watch Workout app. You can also filter workouts by workout type and pick your favourite unit type. The app shows all workouts from your Health/Activity app.

Your pulse, your day, your journal. Pulse is intentionally kept lean: no subscription, no cluttered interface — just you, a moment, and an honest read on how you're actually doing. Free and open source. HOW IT WORKS • Capture moments: a short thought, a rating from −2 (bad) to +2 (good), optional tags and location. Done in seconds. • Reflect on your day: one sentence of forecast in the morning, the summary in the evening — with your own metrics like sleep, deep work, exercise, or family time. Stoic reflection questions get you started. • Discover patterns: daily, weekly, and monthly views show you what lifts you up — and what doesn't. Filter by a single tag to look at one area of your life on its own. Good days have reasons. • AI coach: on request, Apple Intelligence analyzes your entries and surfaces insights about your patterns — running entirely on your iPhone, no cloud. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Everything lives on your iPhone and in your private iCloud. No tracking, no ads, no accounts. The full source code is public on GitHub. Export to JSON anytime. WHO IS PULSE FOR? For everyone who has failed at classic journaling: no long entries, no pressure, no streak guilt. A micro-journal that fits your life — not the other way around. Questions or ideas? Pulse is actively developed — your feedback shapes the roadmap.
