Saying doesn't count. A photo does. Arize is a self-discipline app with one rule: show up, do something that matters, and prove it with a photo. Workout, study or deep work: start a session, and end it with your proof. HOW IT WORKS · Start a session: workout, study or deep work, with a timer and an optional focus scene. · End it with one photo. Every photo is reviewed, by AI or a person. · Check in between 6 and 9 AM for a morning bonus on top of your score. · Show up day after day and your score multiplies: 1.2×, 1.5×, 2×, up to 3×. GROW SOMETHING REAL · Your tree grows with every check-in, from a seed to its final form. · Disappear, and it shrinks. Every tree is one of a kind. YOU'RE NOT ALONE · Team up with someone: when you both show up, your score doubles. If one misses, you both feel it. · The feed shows what others are working on, unlocked once you've shown up today. · A monthly ranking, and eight ranks from DAY ZERO to ARIZED. Getting to the top takes about six months of showing up. ARIZE PRO (optional) · More than one session a day, every one scored · Your patterns, full history, and 3 suggestions a week from your own data · More companions, all focus scenes, unlimited private check-ins Arize works without PRO. PRO renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage it in Settings. Not for everyone. Just you, your work, and the proof.

Train, run, eat — one app is enough. MAJOR UPDATE: AUTO DETECT No more logging every set by hand. During strength training, iPhone and Apple Watch recognize the exercise you're doing and count your reps — just raise your wrist to see. See the list in Me > Intelligence > Supported Exercises. The longer you use it, the better it learns your training habits. Msats brings training, running and nutrition together. What you trained, how far you ran and what you ate are all connected — and your AI coach can see it all. Plan your week in one sentence Tell the AI coach your goal, like "train four times a week, I want to lose fat." It looks at your workouts, nutrition and health data, then builds training templates and a weekly plan you can add to your calendar and start right away. Ask it anytime how to do a move, what to train today or how much to eat. Train hard, see the progress An exercise library covering the whole body, with animated demos for common moves. Automatic rest countdowns with adjustable sounds and haptics. Last session's numbers, 1RM curves and a muscle coverage radar are all tracked for you. Drop sets, supersets, warm-up sets and circuit plans — everything serious lifters need. Every kilometer counts Free runs, goal runs, intervals, or follow a running plan lesson by lesson, with voice guidance. Plus walking, cycling, hiking, indoor cycling, elliptical, rowing, jump rope, stair climber, treadmill, HIIT, yoga, dance, ball sports and more — 20+ cardio types, each with its own calorie estimate. Even if the system closes the app, you can pick up where you left off. Turn your neighborhood into your territory Footprint Run splits the map into hexagons. Close a loop and everything inside is yours; run through someone else's turf to take it over. See your rank in your city and name each territory. Claims are checked against your Health workouts — riding in a car doesn't count. Know what you eat at a glance Snap a photo of your meal to identify dishes and estimate portions and calories, with each dish listed separately; packaged food is read straight from the nutrition label. Calories, protein, carbs, fat, fiber, water and caffeine all line up on your daily timeline. On your wrist Start workouts right on Apple Watch with live heart rate, pace and distance, synced back to iPhone. Live data also shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.
