Bout IQ is the performance platform built for boxing — and for the coaches who run the gym. Log every session in one place: sparring, strength and conditioning, roadwork, recovery and nutrition. Track live heart rate from a chest strap, map your runs, and manage a full fight camp with weight targets and a countdown to the bell. THE ROUND TIMER THAT TRACKS Say your rounds out loud — "six threes, minute rest" — and it sets itself. Prop the phone sideways and the clock is readable across the gym, with your heart rate, your percentage of max and your peak for the round underneath. It stays on your lock screen while you work, and at the final bell the whole session files itself. FOR FIGHTERS • Log any session in seconds — or just say it out loud at the final bell • Wear a strap and it times the session for you, no typing • GPS runs, walks and rides with route maps, splits and heart-rate zones • Weigh-ins, macros and water, with a make-weight plan that tells you if you are on track • Cook a big batch once, split it into portions, log it in one tap all week • Readiness each morning from your sleep, resting heart rate and HRV • Your whole history, forever — and it stays yours if you leave a gym FOR COACHES • The whole squad on one screen • Book sessions and send reminders • Notes and messages per fighter • Give a strength, running or nutrition specialist just the fighters they need • Built for iPad as well as iPhone WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY WEAR Apple Watch, WHOOP, Garmin and Oura all feed in through Apple Health. Bluetooth chest straps connect directly for live zones during a session. FIGHT CAMPS, NOT JUST WORKOUTS Set the opponent, the date and the weight, and Bout IQ counts you down to the bell. Pro adds the camp phases, the weight-cut plan and the camp history, so every camp is measured against the last one. FREE FOREVER Logging is free and always will be: every session, your full history, the round timer, GPS runs and walks, weigh-ins, manual and barcode food logging, and three AI meal scans a day. Your training log is yours.

Run Walk
Read full descriptionHide full description
Your pace. Your intervals. Run Walk is a simple interval timer for iPhone and Apple Watch. Set your warm-up, running and walking times, then repeat for a chosen duration or number of rounds. CLEAR AT A GLANCE • Follow a large countdown and current-interval progress. • See what’s next and how many runs you have left. • Warm up separately, then watch your overall interval progress build. • Hear alerts when it’s time to change pace. • Set running or walking to zero for a single-activity workout. • Pause and resume whenever you need. PHONE ONLY — IDEAL FOR THE TREADMILL Keep the timer on your iPhone while you record separately with Apple’s Workout app and your compatible connected treadmill. Phone-only mode does not start our Watch app or a Health workout. PHONE + WATCH — RECORD YOUR WORKOUT Choose indoor or outdoor, start on iPhone, then follow your intervals on Apple Watch. Once your workout reaches the Watch, the timer continues even when you leave your phone behind. Pause, resume and end from your wrist, with haptic alerts at interval changes. With your permission, the Watch records your workout and available heart rate, active calories and distance. Outdoor workouts can include a route map. When you finish, choose Save workout to see it in Apple Health and Fitness, or Discard. Use Run Walk as your workout recorder in Watch mode. Apple Watch supports one active workout session at a time, so this mode cannot run alongside another Watch workout app. Indoor distance comes from the Watch’s estimate; our app does not connect directly to treadmill equipment. KEEP MOVING Your timer keeps track of elapsed time while you use other apps. Allow notifications for background interval alerts. Live Activities show progress on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island on supported devices; you may need to reopen the app to refresh the current interval after a boundary. No account. No subscriptions. No ads. Health and location permissions are optional. Without Health access, Watch recording and background wrist alerts are limited. Outdoor route recording needs location access. Sounds and notifications follow your device’s sound, notification and Focus settings.
